That ‘something else’ being the wound on Zivon’s arm. The man himself had a white shirt on that was covered in dust and slightly drenched in water. His sleeves were also pulled up, revealing his strong arms… as well as his bandaged wound that was clearly still bleeding… So he really was hurt. Actually, so what if he was? What did that have to do with her? Hell, why was his wound the first thing on her mind?! ‘Grow up! He was cold to you as well as your brother-in-law!’ Xavia thought to herself as she looked away from the news… It was later that night when—much to Xavia’s surprise—Maison suddenly awoke in tears. Before she could ask what was wrong, the teary-eyed boy said, “I… I dreamt that Daddy got buried alive after falling into a pit…! I want Daddy! I need to find him…!” No matter how intelligent Maison usually was, he truly looked like a fragile child at the moment. Either way, Xavia quickly hugged the distressed boy before comforting, “Now, now, it was just a bad dream… Dr

Forget the fact that Zivon clearly had more important things to do, Xavia herself had zero intentions of staying the night here! However, just as she was about to protest, she heard Maison reply, “…Deal!” Following that, Xavia stared wide-eyed as Zivon looked around them before carrying the child over to a nearby hotel… …So, her opinion wasn’t even going to be considered…?! Feeling a headache coming, Xavia was about to follow the father and son when all of a sudden, Keith called out, “Xavia.” The fact that Keith had called her on a first-name basis made Zivon frown as he stopped in his tracks. Wasn’t Keith being a bit too intimate with Xavia? Xavia herself looked embarrassed as she turned to face Keith before saying in a dissatisfied tone, “…Please show more respect, Young Master Keith. I don’t believe we’re close enough to be referring to each other by name…” Upon hearing that, Keith simply replied, “With all due respect, Miss Lockhart, people are calling each other ‘dear’ a

Regardless, after an entire night of effort, the rescue team was finally able to open up a life channel at the site, thus allowing them to begin launching rescue operations. By five in the morning, all the buried personnel were rescued! Nobody had died! This, of course, was great news for dozens of families as well as the Burton Group. Either way, it wasn’t long before reporters began swarming around Zivon who had been busy all night. “We’ve been told that you’ve been a front-liner in the operation throughout the night, Young Master Burton! As the one in charge of the Burton Group as well as the project’s leader, do you have anything to say to everyone?” “Some people have speculated that the construction site wasn’t standardized, which led to this whole incident. With that said, did the Burton Group conduct qualified verification before starting the project?” “Many are certain that your involvement in the rescue was the reason why deaths were prevented! That aside, do share if

After a brief pause, Zivon was prompted to say, “…I’m hanging up first, grandma.” Once the call was ended, Zivon turned to look at Nathan—who was in the front seat—before commanding in a frigid tone, “Get someone to take down that post, and start investigating who leaked the news.” Though Nathan had no idea about the specifics yet, he knew that this was something big since Zivon was using his serious tone…! With that in mind, Nathan wasted no time and immediately began making calls to deal with the matter. The whole situation made the atmosphere inside the car extremely depressing… Jenna herself had her fists clenched for the longest time. After all, was this not a big issue? Shouldn’t Zivon have taken the initiative to explain the picture to her? What more, he was calling for an investigation right off the bat?! So, he was this keen on protecting Xavia yet he wasn’t giving her any respect at all? Was she even his wife?! Feeling like she was going to burst soon, Jenna was e

Shortly after, the door burst open and a sea of reporters immediately rushed in and began taking pictures! However, to their surprise, Xavia was nowhere to be found. The only person who had been in that room was a child! “Is that Little Master Burton…?” “My god! Is that really him?!” “Little Master Burton, did you sleep alone last night? Or did you sleep with your aunt? She’s a woman that looks a lot like your mommy…” Despite the fact that they were well aware that the boy was extremely young, the questions kept on coming. From the reporters’ point of view, the boy was probably old enough to understand their questions. With that in mind, they were sure that he was also more than capable of nodding or saying a few basic things. To their dismay, Maison simply stared blankly and wordlessly at them! “…Why isn’t he saying anything?” “Yeah, what gives?” “Little Master Burton, I’ll give you this sweet if you answer this question. Did someone tell you not to say anything…?” asked
