Xavier was speechless.
Parents pressuring their kids for marriage all shared the same habit.
Whenever there was a woman around him, they automatically assumed she was his girlfriend.
If he really had that kind of luck with women, he would have been married a long time ago.
Lacking the energy to explain further, Xavier just lay there in silence.
Meanwhile.
In Capital City, inside a sleek black sedan heading toward Foster Towers.
Thinking about what Ivy had said last night, Alaric felt a suffocating tightness in his chest. He ordered Leo Archer,
"Find out why Ivy is at the hospital in her hometown."
When he tracked her location last night, he found out she was at Metropolitan General's branch over there.
But he didn't believe a word Ivy said.
What business did Xavier have going all the way out there?
And they just happened to bump into each other?
He wouldn't believe it unless someone told him they had traveled there together.
If Ivy really dared to run off and have an affair with Xavier behind his back, he would break her legs the moment she returned.
Leo acknowledged the order. After dropping his boss off at the office, he immediately launched an investigation into Ivy's situation.
After Ivy arranged breakfast for the Rhodes couple, she figured they must be exhausted from driving all night.
She booked a room for them at a hotel next to the hospital and urged them to get some rest.
Seeing that their son was indeed out of danger, the couple agreed.
They also suspected that Ivy had feelings for him.
Wanting to give the two young people a chance to be alone, they headed to the hotel to sleep.
Ivy returned to the hospital room, sitting by the bed to feed Xavier some soup.
Xavier gently reminded her,
"You should just let a nurse take care of me. If you keep doing this, my parents are going to get the wrong idea."
Ivy couldn't justify spending money on a private nurse. Besides, Xavier had been injured because of her. How could she just abandon him to a stranger?
