Connor never expected that Xylia, a divorcee, could still manage to attract so many men.
Connor’s hand, resting on the quilt, was tightly clenched into a fist as anger surged within him.
An abrupt sound emanated from the doorway. “Hey, what are you guys talking about?”
Burke entered with a smile, first noticing Kaden and David, and said with a smile, “Mr. Sadler, Mr. Hayes, are you also here to see Mr. Ford?”
After Burke greeted Kaden and David, he walked over to Connor’s bedside, looked at him, and said, “Mr. Ford, I heard that you were injured, so I came to check on you. How are you feeling now?”
Connor replied politely, “Burke, sorry to trouble you to come and see me. I am fine.”
Burke said, “As we are all friends, there is no need for formalities.”
Kaden frowned as he looked at the person before him.
Burke was the richest man in Kregonia
Connor had heard of Burke’s reputation, but had never actually met him.
However, he wondered exactly how Burke knew him.
David looked at Burke and said indifferently, “Since you’re well, I will take my leave now, Mr. Ford. If you have any dissatisfaction, Mr. Garcia will certainly provide you with an explanation.”
Burke called out to David, who was about to leave, “Mr. Hayes, please relay a message to Mr. Garcia.”“
David halted and looked at Burke indifferently. Only then did Burke resume speaking. I have kept Mr. Garcia’s words in mind. However, I have my own matters to attend to, which may inevitably cause him some displeasure in the future. I ask for his understanding in advance.
Burke was smiling, but those fierce eyes coiled around David like a venomous snake.
Even someone as tough as David could not help but feel apprehensive when confronted with Burke, whose cordial demeanor concealed a more menacing intent.
However, he showed no outward emotion, merely responded with a subdued ‘Alright, and then turned to
leave.
Connor let out a soft snort. “Mr. Garcia is actually quite considerate toward a chauffeur.”
Kaden glanced at Connor and also prepared to turn and leave.
Burke suddenly called out to Kaden, “Mr. Sadler, please wait. I have some business matters I would like to discuss with you.”

Kaden did not pause, leaving behind only an offhand remark. The Sadler Group currently has no prospect of developing in Kregonia. Mr. Sterling, please talk to someone else.
Only after Kaden’s figure disappeared through the doorway of the hospital room did the smile on Burke’s face finally fade.
He tilted his head and looked at Connor. “Mr. Ford, do you have a grudge against Mr. Sadler?”
Connor looked at Tessa, who was standing beside him. “Tessa, step outside for now.”
Tessa was still sizing up Burke in front of her.
She did not know Burke, but from what Kaden just said, she had a general idea that Burke was from Kregonia.
She had intended to stay and listen to something, but Connor quickly drove her out.
Although she was unwilling, she nevertheless went out.
Connor and Burke talked for a long time in the hospital room. By the time Burke came out, Tessa, who had been standing by the corridor, was nearly stiff.
When she heard the hospital ward door open, she instinctively looked over.
Burke walked over to stand in front of Tessa with a smile. “Ms. Schultz, are you Ms. Sadler’s younger sister?”
“Ms. Sadler?” Tessa was puzzled; she did not know anyone named Ms. Sadler.
Burke said, “I mean Ms. Xylia Sadler.”
Tessa thought for a moment and said, “Are you referring to Xylia Schultz? I am not her sister. She is a daughter adopted by the Schultz family–an impostor.”
Tessa thought that, because Burke was a foreigner, after noticing the ambiguous relationship between Xylia and Kaden, he began referring to Xylia as Xylia Sadler.
“Is that so?” Burke said, smiling.
He suddenly moved closer to Tessa and looked at her with a smile. “Are you considering pursuing a career in the entertainment industry, Ms. Schultz?”
Tessa looked at him with a puzzled expression, but still nodded.
Burke handed Tessa a business card. “I wish you every success. If you require any assistance in the future.. please feel free to contact me.”
After 5 speaking, Burke took Tessa’s hand and, with gentlemanly grace, placed a kiss on the back of her hand.
Tessa’s body shuddered.
Watching Burke’s departing figure, she was surprised to find that she felt no resistance at all to his approach.

The next day, the cruise ship arrived at the dock.
Xylia followed Kaden off the ship.
Gina spotted Xylia from a distance and came over to greet her.
She was wearing sunglasses and a mask, disguising herself as an ordinary tourist.
As the two were about to part, Gina leaned in to Xylia’s ear and said, “Xylia, I want to commission a few more outfits from you. This time, it’s not just for a simple reason–I’m about to participate in a reality dating show. Please design several stylish and distinctive personal outfits for me, and I’ll promote you on the show as well.”
Xylia quickly nodded in agreement. That’s great! You’ve really helped me get off to a good start. I’ll treat you to a meal sometime!”
Gina smiled and joked, “Alright! When the time comes, I’m going to make you treat me to a big feast!”
Gina was about to leave in haste when Xylia stopped her and also urged Kaden to leave quickly.
Kaden was inexplicably driven away.
Meanwhile, Xylia followed Gina and got into her car.
Noticing Xylia’s mysterious demeanor, Gina asked. “What’s going on? You’re acting weird.”
Xylia patted her arm. “I want to ask you, who are the people participating in this dating show?”
The official list of participants for the dating reality show had not yet been announced, and she really couldn’t figure out which obscure celebrity Leon intended to woo.
Gina looked at Xylia with suspicion. “Why are you concerned about this?”
Xylia begged, “I’m a little curious–come on, just tell me! I swear I’ll keep it secret!”
Xylia tugged at Gina, pleading with her, and after some consideration, Gina told her. “Actually, I’m not really sure who the guests are, but I do know there are four pairs, eight people in total. From what I know right now, besides myself, there’s someone named Bella Willard, but I don’t know who the other two are.”
Xylia looked quite disappointed. “You are about to begin filming, yet you still do not know who will be participating?”
Cina shrugged. “There’s nothing I can do; I’m just a worker. If the director doesn’t tell us what’s going on, we don’t know anything
After Xylia understood the situation, she bid farewell to Gina.
She searched for Bella online.
Bella was also a beautiful female celebrity, but she was a singer. The voice in the video was different from that

of the woman Xylia encountered in the restaurant that day.
It seemed that Leon was not pursuing the female celebrity named Bella.
Nylia let out a long sigh–she’d wasted her effort again.

The studio renovation had been completed, and Xylia and Josie had been busy all day recruiting workers and sourcing materials, running off their feet by the hectic. pace.
When Leon finally managed to clear his schedule to visit Xylia, she was still overwhelmed with work.
Leon urged, “Xylia, I don’t have much time. Hurry up and come out with me.”
Xylia had previously promised Leon that she would accompany him to select some gifts to help him win the favor of the person he secretly admired..
However, since the studio work was quite overwhelming, and she was too embarrassed to dump all the work on Josic, she kept hesitating.
Josie waved her hand. “Go on. There’s not much left to do. I can handle it.”
