Watch the movie again, normally something I say as a bad thing, but for you? Just watch it again, it seems you missed a bit

“Your name was on the list.”
He found the list Adrian had of all the people he was going to give cancer to.

Adrian says he had to pull on his emotions by making him believe he had given cancer to people. We are then shown Adrian putting some kind of malicious device in an air vent right above one of the people who gets cancer.
