4. Tattoo

Xavier continued to explain, "Sir, no one told me to do this."

"I saved you because I need your strength," Xavier continued.

Ethan stared at Xavier with a strange look, "What do you mean?"

"I suffer from a rare and strange disease, and only you can cure me," Xavier explained.

Ethan glanced at the young CEO with a judgmental look and then said, "You don't look sick."

He wasn't exaggerating. Xavier Meyer looked so healthy and lacked nothing. He even had an athletic body that was the dream of many men.

So, how could he be suffering from an illness? Ethan didn't believe it.

"My illness cannot be seen from the outside, Sir. There are many problems in my body, and only with the power of the dragon energy that you possess can I be cured," Xavier said patiently.

"And how can I do that? I'm not a doctor. I'm just an ordinary servant, Sir," Ethan said, increasingly puzzled.

"Sir, you-"

"Since we're at the hospital, how about you find the best doctor here?" Ethan suggested.

Xavier smiled faintly, not seeming annoyed by Ethan's words. He simply said, "I have met hundreds of doctors, Sir. But none of them can cure my illness."

Ethan sighed irritably, "If even doctors can't cure you, how could I possibly do it?"

Joss, who heard this, sighed softly but remained standing beside Ethan's bed, even though strangely enough, he felt a little annoyed with the young man at that moment. 

However, considering that his master desperately needed Ethan's power to heal him, he had no choice but to endure Ethan's irritating attitude. 

"This is because the energy in your body has just started to flow, it is not yet perfect. It is better for you to rest!" Xavier said.

Ethan did not respond and just climbed onto the bed and closed his eyes.

Joss glanced at Xavier, who was apparently not affected by Ethan's annoying attitude.

Xavier said again, "Actually, there is another way you can prove whether what I said about you being the heir to the Dragon King's knowledge is true or not."

Ethan did not respond but continued to listen. 

Xavier smiled brightly, because he knew that Ethan, who was silent, was actually listening to what he was saying. 

"The only ones who can see the tattoo are you and those who are related to you by blood. No one else will be able to see it."

Xavier's explanation immediately made Ethan open his eyes wide. 

"You mean ... you're a member of my family? How is that possible?" Ethan said, who immediately sat down and stared at Xavier.

Xavier replied, "That's the fact. You and I are still related by blood, even though it's very distant."  

Ethan was silent, choosing not to react and thinking about something.  

Joss, who was so relieved that Xavier had come up with such a brilliant idea to make Ethan fully understand, chimed in, "So, you can ask everyone in this hospital. I can guarantee one hundred percent that none of them will be able to see your tattoo."

"Even if someone can see it, it means that person is one of your relatives," Joss added.

The two men did not get a response from Ethan. However, they were very sure that Ethan would definitely find a way to prove that he was right. 

As if deliberately giving Ethan the opportunity to do whatever he wanted, Xavier said, "Sir, I'm going to leave for a while with Joss."

"I have placed several assistants and guards outside this room. If you need any help, you can ask them and I will come here immediately," Xavier said.

After saying that, Xavier bowed respectfully to Ethan and then left with Yandra, who hoped that Ethan would soon trust them. 

When they were outside Ethan's room, Joss asked, "Is it okay to leave him alone, Sir? He won't run away, will he?"

"He won't run away," Xavier replied with a raised eyebrow and a smile on his lips.

Joss was confused at first, but then he fully understood what Xavier meant.

Xavier and Joss were escorted by several guards to a room not far from the room occupied by Ethan.

The room was a control room specifically used by Xavier. He was able to get that special room because he was the owner of the hospital. 

The Green Forest Hospital was one of the hospitals under the auspices of a foundation owned by Xavier Meyer, Meyer Corporation.

Therefore, it was easy for him to order the doctors to check on the king's condition. 

Xavier did not reveal his ownership of the hospital to avoid making Ethan uncomfortable.

He had already guessed that Ethan would not easily trust him, so he had to use various methods, including hiding some things about himself.

He thought that if he said the hospital belonged to him, Ethan would find it harder to believe him. 

Xavier sat in a comfortable chair with various monitors in front of him.

Joss stood behind him, watching monitor number twelve, which showed the exit of the room occupied by Ethan.

After waiting for almost thirty minutes, they saw a glimmer of hope when they saw Ethan coming out of the room.

Meanwhile, Ethan, who did not know that he was being watched by two men who claimed to be his servants in his previous life, was quite surprised to see many people in front of his room. 

As he was about to walk away from the room, a man wearing black sunglasses and a black suit walked towards him. 

"Sir, can we help you?" 

Ethan frowned. 

Damn, I thought he was joking when he said he would put guards and assistants in front of my room, Ethan thought to himself.

"No, I just want to take a walk," Ethan replied.

The man, whom Ethan guessed was a bodyguard, spoke again, "Would you like company, Sir?"

"No, thank you. I won't be long, just looking around the hospital for a bit," Ethan said, who of course flatly refused the offer.

If not, Ethan would certainly have difficulty moving, and the two strange men would immediately know that he wanted to prove the truth of their words. 

"Then please go ahead, Sir. Please let us know if you need anything. We will stay around here."

Ethan nodded and hurriedly left the area. 

He looked around the hospital and only then realized how incredibly luxurious it was.

This was the kind of hospital Ethan would never have been able to afford if he had been sick.

Just looking at the building, Ethan knew he would have to dig deep into his pockets to pay for treatment there. 

He stopped in a hallway and began to hesitate. 

"How can I get someone to look at my back?"
