Inside a VIP ward at the hospital, Zyon was playing around with his beautiful personal nurse.
âOpen your mouth, Mr. Fairchild. Open up. Itâs time for your medicine,â the nurse uttered playfully.
âSay, donât you think your way of feeding me the medicine is a little too unprofessional, sexy? You shoul dnât be using your hands. Instead, you should use â As Zyon spoke, he lifted the nurseâs chin.
His sentence was interrupted by a loud banging sound of the door opening. Two men in black suits and sunglasses stood at the entrance.
Upon seeing that, Zyon questioned in shock, âWho are you people? Why are you here?â
Before the men in black had the chance to answer, a tall, regal man stepped into the room.
âXavier?â After that violent beating last time, Zyon would shake uncontrollably whenever he saw Xavier.
âWhy are you here?â
Xavier glanced at Zyon but didnât bother to acknowledge him.
The former undid a button on his suit and sat on the couch next to the bed.
The longer he stayed silent, the more fearful Zyon became.
Due to his cast, Zyon couldnât move his right hand easily, so he urged the nurse. âWhat are you staring
for? Call the police quickly!â
âOkay!â She was shocked by the sudden development too and pulled out her phone from her bag.
Before she could unlock her phone, she was held down on the spot next to Xavierâs foot.
The man was so intimidating that just sitting beside her silently terrified her. âIâIâ
I donât know anything. Please let me go.â
Ever since Xavier left Lagune Mansion, he had been feeling unstable. Currently, he still had enough pat ience to deal with the woman.
âScram,â he spat coldly.
The moment she left, his patience was gone.
When the two bodyguards shut the door, he slowly stood, removed his watch, and unfastened his cuffli nks.
Zyonâs bones were already groaning in pain when he saw Xavier was preparing to beat him up. âWâ
What are you doing, Xavier? Iâve been staying in the hospital recently. I didnât do anything!â
âHah,â Xavier sneered and stepped closer to the bed. âAre you taking me for a fool just because Taco Tolc Scarface escaped without leaving any traces behind? Iâm not as stupid as you think!â
He stretched his hand and tightened his grip on Zyonâs neck. âYou may not be able to step out of your bed because
of your broken bones, but that doesnât mean you canât use your mouth to order other people to do your
dirty work. You have some guts to keep messing with my people. It seems like I need to find a needle t o sew your mouth shut.â
âNâ
No, donât do it, Xavier! I have no idea who this Scarface is! I think thereâs a misunderstanding here, Xav ier.â
âA misunderstanding?â With an evil smile on his face, Xavier picked up the syringe Zyon was playing wi th earlier. âThen I guess itâs also a misunderstanding that Iâm sewing your mouth shut.â
Even when he was in peak condition, Zyon was no match for Xavier, much less when he was bedridde n. There was nothing he could do to stop Xavier from tormenting him.
Right before Xavier was about to strike, a light cough was heard from behind him. âThatâs enough, Xavi er. Weâre at a hospital right now. Donât go overboard.â
âPâ
Please save me, Dr. Houghton.â The moment Josiah entered the room, Zyon called out to him for help
as though he had met his messiah.
However, Xavierâs anger was still burning brightly. âAm I? Compared to what he did?â
âXavier!â Josiah grabbed the syringe away. âYour two bodyguards caused so much commotion that even people from the neighboring room were checking out what was going on. T hereâs a reporter inside there. Can you at least show me some respect in my own hospital? If you poke holes in his mouth with the syringe, it wonât be a good look for me.â
âOh?â The edges of Xavierâs lips curved upward slowly. âHow about this? As long as there arenât any inj uries on his face, itâs fine, right?â
As he spoke, he stepped on Zyonâs rib, which hadnât recovered yet. âIt has nothing to do with your hosp ital if itâs simply a case of his injuries acting up again, right?â
Josiah pushed his goldenâ
framed glasses up, shrugged, and took two steps back. âAs long as youâre happy In the next second, Zyon screamed even louder as Xavier stepped on him harder.
Josiah didnât do anything. Thank goodness the VIP ward is soundproof after closing the door.
After teaching Zyon a lesson, Xavier used the bedsheet to wipe his leather shoe without lifting his eyes.
âIâll warn you for the last time. Winnie may be mentally challenged, but sheâs still my wife. Touch her ag ain, and Iâll make you beg for death.â
A few minutes passed. Inside Josiahâs office, Xavier was loosening his tie in annoyance.
Even though he had personally taken care of Zyon earlier, he was still pissed off.
Josiah asked his assistant to serve Xavier a cup of coffee upon seeing how the latter was acting. âCome has become your untouchable bottom line. So tell me, what happened?â
The cup of coffee was emptied by Xavier in one go. Then, with an irritated voice, he said, âI actually got jealous of the two pictures she brought with her. Itâs not just the simple matter of my primit minded idiot who sees me as a brother.â
âThatâsâ¦â Josiah sighed. âIâm still going to bring up the suggestion from last time. I really do think you sh Xavier rubbed his eyebrows, closed his eyes, and gave it a long thought. Then he nodded.
Suddenly, a commotion was heard outside of the door.
âWhoâs outside?â Xavier promptly opened his eyes.
âNo one. Thereâs no need to panic.â Josiah pointed at the printer outside. âThereâs a small issue with the Nothing seemed out of place to Josiah, and Xavier believed his best friendâs words.
Outside of the office, Josiahâs assistant, who delivered coffee into the room not too long ago, left sneakil Her destination wasnât the pantry, but Zyonâs ward.
She told him everything she had heard. âThatâs all I heard from the conversation between Mr. Fairchild a Zyon furrowed his eyebrows. âAre you sure you heard Yulissaâs name?â
âIâm certain! Dr. Houghton mentioned it a couple of times. Iâm pretty sure I didnât hear it wrong.â
âVery well. If Xavier comes by again, you must keep a close eye on him. Donât worry, Iâll reward you for y After the assistant left, the door to the restroom was opened by a woman.
