My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 350

Xan, despite her smarts and striking beauty, which made her incredibly endearing, was still very much a child at heart—innocent, straightforward, and prone to bouts of pouting and whimsy. On the flip side, when things didn't go her way, she could throw a fit like no other.

Mr. Lockwood, on the other hand, wasn't much older in years but had already established himself as a towering figure in Crestwood's financial elite. As the renowned CEO of the Lockwood Group, his resolve and temperament were subjects of much speculation and intrigue. He was a mystery, wrapped in a riddle, shrouded in rumors.

By all accounts, one would think Mr. Lockwood's interest lean towards women of a more mature and polished demeanor, not someone like Xan.

The two of them were unsure how to face him. It was Ethan who broke the silence first. “Mr. Lockwood, is everything Xan said by the lake true?”

“Yes, it is true.”

So, it really was like that.

Ethan's gaze dropped slightly, hiding the furious gleam in his eyes.

The mastermind behind the explosion at Realm of Illusions audition site was Miranda. No wonder Xan poisoned her as soon as she returned.

Xan is inherently kind-hearted and would never resort to such measures unless it was a matter of life and death. He should've realized sooner and not let Miranda leave the hospital alive.

Hearing this, Susanna couldn't hold back her tears, and Christopher was right there, comforting her, “It's okay, it’s okay.”

“Except for one thing.”

“What's that?”

“I've liked Xan for a very long time.”

Samuel came down the stairs just in time to hear this, seizing upon it, “How long is a very long time? Xan's only 18. Did you fall for her before she was still underage? Pervert!”

Orion responded, “Since her coming-of-age ceremony.”

“That's still lusting after her!”
