Chapter 163
After drinking water, Xylia felt significantly more comfortable.
She looked at the empty hospital room and asked, “Where are my brothers?”
Joshua replied, “They have gone to eat and will return shortly.”
Xylia looked at Joshua. “Have you had dinner yet?”

“Yeah.” As he spoke, he asked Xylia, “Are you hungry? There’s stewed soup made by your housekeeper. I can heat it up for you.”
“I don’t want to eat right now. I’ll wait a bit. With that, Xylia tried to sit up.
Joshua helped raise her bed.
Xylia said, “My brothers will take care of me. Why don’t you go home first?”
Joshua, however, did not refuse.
He sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at Xylia. ‘I will leave once your brothers have returned.”
He indeed had other matters to attend to.
After seeing that Xylia’s surgery was very successful, he felt reassured.
Xylia nodded.
After Hudson and Leon returned, Joshua left.
Leon let out a long breath of relief. “He has finally left!”
Hudson took the soup and dishes delivered by the housekeeper to heat up.
Leon sat on the stool beside the bed and looked at Xylia. “Does your wound hurt, Xylia?”
Xylia shook her head.
Cyrus administered an analgesic to her. Even after the anesthesia wore off, she did not feel even a little pain.
Leon only then breathed a sigh of relief. “If it hurts, tell us immediately.”
After a moment’s consideration, Xylia finally said, “Guys, perhaps it would be better if you arranged for a caregiver for me. You are all very busy, and any further delay would not be ideal
In fact, Xylia was not really afraid of disturbing them; rather, she found it awkward to be cared for by several
grown men.
She had a wound on her leg, which impaired her mobility.

Although she was a biological sibling of Leon and the others, she thought that she and they should keep at proper distance since they were men. Things like helping her use the bathroom or wash up together were inappropriate.
Leon did not consider these possibilities. He simply assumed that Xylia was concerned about delaying their main business and waved his hand. “It’s okay. We’re not busy.
Hudson said, “You are now the top priority of the Sadler family. No matter how busy we are, we must not leave you alone in the hospital.”
Xylia had nothing further to say.
She decided to arrange for a caregiver herself.
Leon mysteriously leaned in close to Xylia, smiled, and said, “Xylia, I have something to tell you.”
Xylia looked at him. “What is it?”
Leon said happily, “I’m glad I listened to you and bought those sunglasses–it was really the right decision.
Xylia beamed. “She likes them?”
Xylia found it rather amusing to see Leon so evidently lovestruck.
Leon’s previous on–screen persona was aloof and serious, as if, apart from acting, nothing else interested him.
He never expected that after truly falling for someone, he would act like a lovestruck fool–just giving a gift could make him proud.
He said proudly, “Yeah! I’ve noticed that she has been wearing this pair of sunglasses over the past few days.”
Xylia asked, “Has the filming of your romance reality show begun already?”
Leon shook his head. “It starts tomorrow. It’s just that we’ve been seeing each other more often these p days.”

Xylia’s interest was piqued. “Which account? I want to watch your livestream.”
Leon said, “I will send it to you shortly.”
While the two were conversing, Hudson entered carrying the heated food.
Xylia had just finished her meal when a caregiver knocked on the door and entered the hospital room. “Excuse me, are you Miss Xylia Sadler?”
Xylia nodded. “That’s me.”
The caregiver said, “I am the caregiver whom Mr. Garcia has hired for you. It should be inconvenient for your

I will help you.”
She couldn’t believe how considerate Joshua was.
However, Hudson and Leon looked displeased, thinking. ‘Damn! He beat us again!”
Leon left the hospital that evening to prepare for the dating reality show scheduled for the following day.
After repeatedly instructing Hudson to take good care of Xylia, he left in haste.
At noon the following day, Xylia found the link Leon had sent the previous day and entered the livestream.
Upon entering, she saw that nearly 200,000 people were already watching it.
Fans from diverse backgrounds were sending bulletin comments.
The primary fan base belonged to Leon.
Netizen A: [You got this, Leon!]
Netizen B: [I love you, Leon! Although I can’t bear to see you in a relationship, I’ll still support you!]
Netizen C: [Unconditional support for Leon!]
Netizen D: [Just imagine how happy a girl would be in a relationship with Leon.]
It was actually Xylia’s first time watching this type of livestream, and she found it quite novel.
The guests had not come out yet, and Hudson placed the prepared dishes on the dining table.
“Eat while you watch.” With that, he handed the spoon to Xylia.
Xylia thanked him, placed the phone on the small dining table, and gestured to Hudson to watch it together. “Let’s see how Leon woos his girl.”
They looked at each other and smiled, each seeing mockery in the other’s eyes.
At the scene of the live broadcast, Mia was the first to arrive at the villa prepared by the production team.

Dressed in a black and gold evening gown and wearing four–inch high heels, she nevertheless came over from afar on a shared bicycle.
Her reputation in the entertainment industry was not considered particularly good.
Whenever she appeared on screen, the real–time comments were overwhelmingly abusive.

Netizen B: [Does it even matter if she’s got more scenes? Ultimately, she remains scandalous.]

Netizen D: [No! Mia Monroe, get lost–don’t come and bring trouble to Leon!]
Netizen E: [Get Mia Monroe out!]
Netizen F: Get Mia Monroe out!]
Xylia looked at the barrage of insults in the live comments, feeling somewhat perplexed.
