Isabel’s eyes widened as she stared at the handsome man before her, feeling both shocked and unsure of how to respond. 

Xander, who had always kept his distance from women, was now holding her! 

The sudden change made her remember that she had previously discovered Xander’s usual avoidance of women. Before that, he hadn’t confronted her because of her ability to heal Samuel’s legs. 

She knew she had to be careful not to push him too far, or she might end up being kicked out. 

Yet now, he was carrying her upstairs, which was unexpected. 

While Isabel was lost in thought, Xander told his assistant, “Leo, get Dr. Gill here.” 

“No need. I’m a doctor myself. There’s no need for Leo to go. Just let him carry me upstairs,” Isabel quickly interjected. 

Xander’s steps came to an abrupt halt, his face darkening as he turned to Leo Lambert with a menacing look 

“Yes, sir,” Leo responded and hurried away in fear. 

Xander ascended the stairs with Isabel in his arms, his expression stern. 

Rachel, unable to contain herself, rushed after them in a panic. 

“Xan, you have to believe me! I didn’t do anything to her! It was her who got angry and slapped me after I revealed her motives!” 

Isabel, battling the pain in her stomach, defended herself, “My pain isn’t related to you. Your face is your doing, not mine.” 

Rachel was momentarily at a loss for words. 

“Xan, don’t listen to her lies! I-” 

“Get out,” Xander said coldly. 

Rachel was taken aback. She needed to make things clear today. 

“Xan, you-” 

“I said get out. Understand? Or should I have someone throw you out?” Xander’s tone was calm but carried a dangerous undertone. 

Rachel fell silent, not daring to say more as she watched Xander carry Isabel into the room. 

What a b*tch!. 

She cursed inwardly. She had been amazed by Isabel’s beauty when she first saw her earlier and felt a strong sense of crisis.

Reflecting on her initial reaction, she felt even more convinced. She must get rid of Isabel as soon as possible, or the latter would become a major rival in her romantic pursuits. 

Just wait and see! I’ll make you regret trying to steal my mant 

Rachel sneered and left the villa. 

Inside the room, Xander carefully placed Isabel on the bed. 

“Don’t worry. Dr. Gill will be here soon.” 

In so much pain that she could barely speak, Isabel looked at Xander’s worried face. She thought he must be concerned about his younger brother, fearing that if something happened to her, there wouldn’t be anyone to take care of his brother’s legs. 

Five minutes later, Xander’s frustration grew. He called Leo, “Why hasn’t Dr. Gill arrived yet?” “We’re almost there,” Leo replied, wiping his sweat and urging Dr. Gill, ‘Hurry up! Boss is waiting!” 

Robin rushed in with a medicine box, sweating heavily 

As they entered Isabel’s room, the tense atmosphere felt almost suffocating. 

Leo observed Xander’s intense focus on Isabel and sensed something unusual. 

Having worked for Xander for years, he’d never seen him show such concern for a woman before. It seemed like his guesses were correct. 

After Robin diagnosed Isabel with a stomach issue, Xander visibly relaxed. 

Since Isabel’s condition was severe, she needed IV fluids. After some time, her condition began to improve. 

“How are you feeling?” Xander asked softly. 

Leo believed his guess even more as he heard Xander’s unusually gentle tone. 

“I feel better,” Isabel said weakly. “Just a bit thirsty.” 

She then turned to Leo and asked, “Could you get me a glass of water?” 

“Why ask him? I can get it,” Xander said, glancing at Leo. 

Leo, sweating nervously, stood still. 

Isabel was taken aback by Xander’s comment. She thought, If I don’t let Leo help, who else should I ask? I wouldn’t want to trouble the boss. 

“Why are you silent? Are you interested in him?” Xander’s gaze narrowed at Isabel. 

When Xander spoke, Leo’s forehead began to sweat heavily. 

Isabel was momentarily taken aback. Why was Xander suddenly saying such things? 

Before she could collect her thoughts, Xander had already stood up, poured her a glass of warm water, and handed it to her.
