Hearing Isabella’s words, Phoebe couldn’t help but smile.

“I used to think the same way you do. Plenty of times, I resented how coldly he handled things.

“But just like someone who’s sick, I know he couldn’t help it.”

Couldn’t help it?

Isabella didn’t understand what Phoebe meant.

Xavier, who no one could control, Xavier, who always had to have things his way, Xavier, who stood above everyone and never cared about other people’s lives…

How could that word ever apply to him?

“I shouldn’t be talking about his business, but if you want to know, Noah might give you the

answer.”

Phoebe’s words left Isabella with countless questions in her mind.

What did she mean by that?

Xavier had treated Phoebe like this, so why did it feel like Phoebe was still defending him?

After leaving Phoebe’s place, Isabella didn’t call Xavier. Instead, she headed straight for the hospital.

Rachel had already begun treating Noah officially, and Isabella was curious to see how this so- called miracle doctor with a fake reputation would handle his treatment.

As for Xavier, he went directly to Harry’s office as soon as he arrived at the hospital.

Noah was getting a series of tests done that morning, with Rachel staying by his side the entire time.

Harry poured a glass of water for Xavier and started explaining the treatment plan Rachel had put together ahead of time.

But Xavier kept glancing down at his phone every few seconds, clearly distracted.

“What’s wrong? Got something on your mind?”

Harry noticed his distraction right away.

It was highly out of the ordinary. Whenever the topic turned to Noah’s condition, Xavier was always serious and completely focused.

“I have to pick someone up later.”

“Isabella?” Harry didn’t hold back; he said her name directly.

Xavier shot him a sharp, cold glance but didn’t deny it.

“Have you two patched things up?”

Harry set the documents down and sat in the chair across from Xavier.

Xavier’s expression remained dark an

Xavier’s expression remained dark and tense. “It’s none of your business.”

Harry felt a little deflated. He’d thought the man might have some smooth lines or clever tricks to win a woman over.

Judging by the look of things, he’d gotten his hopes up for nothing.

Still, he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy toward Xavier–a man who had the courage and the power to keep whoever he wanted by his side, no matter the cost.

Not like him…

The conversation between the two men faded out, and Harry quietly went back to his own work.

Seeing that Isabella still hadn’t called, Xavier picked up his phone and stepped out into the hallway.

After hesitating for a while, he finally dialed Isabella’s number.

She answered quickly, and the background noise around her was loud and chaotic.

“Where are you?”

“I’m on the subway.”

Hearing that, Xavier’s voice dropped slightly. “I told you I’d come get you…

He’d figured the meeting between Phoebe and Isabella would last a little over half an hour, so he’d had plenty of time. He hadn’t expected Isabella to have left already.

“No need. I’m heading to the hospital to see Noah. We can leave together later.”

Isabella cut Xavier off and hung up the phone.

“You…” Xavier listened to the busy tone on the other end, his fingers tightening around his phone.

That woman was getting bolder and bolder!

Harry happened to walk out just then and saw Xavier getting hung up on.

He wanted to back away, but it was too late–Xavier’s gaze had already locked onto him.

Xavier’s icy expression and terrifying aura were almost suffocating.

“Was that… Ms. Carter?”

Not wanting to stand there in total silence, Harry spoke up, only to make the whole situation even more awkward.

He felt like he’d just poured gasoline on a fire.

“Maybe Ms. Carter didn’t want to trouble anyone… Women as thoughtful and considerate as her are hard to come by these days…”

Harry forced a smile, feeling like he was only digging himself into a deeper hole.

He didn’t want to get involved in other people’s business, especially Xavier’s.

But somehow, the man just had this overwhelming, magnetic presence…

Xavier replied coldly, “She’s coming to see Noah.”

Hearing that, Harry relaxed a little. “Is that so? That’s great. It’s about time she came to visit her brother–in–law after all this time.”

“Dr. Ashford.” Suddenly, Xavier called out to Harry.

The formal title made Harry’s heart skip a beat.

“Yes, sir…”

“How old are you?”
