“He’s right, Young Master Burton! Though it’s fine to worry about her, how will the children fare if you fall ill…?!” He knew that he should take better care of himself, yet… In the end, he simply grabbed Nathan by the collar before roaring, “Why do you think I’m doing this…?! If you people were more competent, I wouldn’t have to do everything myself! What the hell do I even pay you for?!” Though Zivon’s aura was frightening, Nathan felt that Zivon was more pitiful than anything. After all, just how devastated did that almighty man need to be to be reduced to such a state…? Not wanting Zivon to suffer any further, Nathan lowered his head before replying, “…I apologize for our uselessness! If it helps, please take out your anger on me so that you can relax a bit, Young Master Burton!” Getting even angrier when he heard that, Zivon let go of Nathan before punching him straight in the cheek as he yelled, “What good is punishing you?! Be more productive by conducting a city-wide ce

See, Xavia had been so excited to notice the officers that she failed to remember that those vile men had put a guard dog on the ground floor… and unfortunately for her, she and the firewood were on the second floor! As if things couldn’t get any worse, Leo returned around then and said, “Here’s my account book! Actually, hold on! You two should stay away from the cowshed! Believe me when I say that this dog loves biting strangers!” Before the officers could reply, Leo had already pushed them out and closed the door behind him as he added, “Look, the dog has already eaten several chickens and ducks in the village, and though plenty of the residents wanted to kill it in the past, I told them that this would be the only thing guarding this boy once I finally kicked the bucket. Anyway, just stay away from it or you’ll get bitten for sure! Here, have a look at my account book as I fill the dog’s bowl.” Honestly, Leo hadn’t needed to say all that since they weren’t planning on getting

...To think that he had lived here for twenty entire years… What’s more, if he had been kidnapped, then his real parents had probably been living in absolute agony this entire time… Somehow, the thought of that lessened her own pain a little, and in the end, she was prompted to reply, “…Thank you for sharing all that with me… Um… If we do make it out, then I’ll be sure to help you find your family…” Smiling in response, the doctor then said, “I’d appreciate that. Also, the name’s Cade. Cade Cress.” “…Xavia. Xavia Frankston…” Following that exchange, Cade did his best to keep the infant alive… and once things had settled down, he lied to Leo and said that the baby had been aborted. What’s more, he even said that she needed to rest in bed for an entire week, and she couldn’t face any pressure throughout that period, or she could be at risk of dying. After Leo begrudgingly nodded, Xavia watched as Cade walked off… and despite her terrible situation, she couldn’t help but reveal

Watching as the two continued getting beaten up, Whitney, who had been watching from under a tree from a distance, couldn’t help but smirk. She was going to make sure that Xavia and Zivon would never ever reunite throughout their lives… and even if they somehow went against all odds, she had promised herself to break Xavia down to the point where their love would no longer matter! This was the price they had to pay for humiliating her so much…! Fast forward to about a month later, everyone remained worried and helpless. After all, Xavia had yet to be found, and by this point, everyone was secretly expecting the worst. Despite their negativity, however, Zivon continued believing that Xavia was still alive. In fact, he had even doubled his efforts by trying to find her through her scent residues! Unbeknownst to him, Whitney had been two steps ahead of him, and since she had fed Xavia those scent-concealing drugs, the investigation team’s dogs were unable to locate her no matter how h

“…Listen, I’m your real husband!” “Y-you’re not! Aren’t you like, thirty? Why would I ever marry someone like you?! Let go of me! Brother Cade! Brother Cade!” yelled Xavia who truly couldn’t see such a nobleman being her husband. Regardless, upon hearing her cries, Cade was quick to run toward her and push Zivon aside! Standing between them like a shield, Cade growled, “Who the hell are you people…?! Don’t touch her!” As if Xavia failing to recognize him wasn’t enough, she was now more willing to be with this random person instead…?! Glaring at Xavia, Zivon asked, “…Who is this man…?!” Though Xavia hadn’t agreed to Cade’s marriage proposal yet, she was afraid enough of Zivon to lie, “H-he’s my husband! As I said, you’ve mistaken me for someone else, so please leave!” Now brimming with pain, Zivon strode over to her before grabbing her wrist again as he growled, “You dare call another man your husband…?!” He was deeply infuriated, and his tone made that crystal clear. Just a
