My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 338

"I want to go see Mom!"

"Hold on a second."

Just as Xanthea was about to run out, Samuel stopped her.

"What's wrong?"

"Alex said Mom just woke up, her mood and mental state are still pretty unstable. She needs some good rest. I'm worried if you go now, seeing you might upset her again."

"You're right. Let Dad take good care of her for now. I'll go see her later."

Seeing her cheerful expression without a trace of sadness, thinking she was just holding back her sorrow, he suddenly gave her a tight hug.

"Xan, I'm so sorry, so sorry!"

"Samuel, what's gotten into you?"

"It's all my fault for being so careless, for not fulfilling my duties as a brother, for not discovering the true nature of those two cheaters earlier, that I caused you so much pain and suffering! Don't worry, I will never let them off. Even if they don't die, they'll wish they had!"

As he spoke, his voice was filled with hatred, as if he truly wanted to devour them alive. Xanthea laughed and patted his back in consolation, "It's okay, Samuel. You've already stood up for me. You looked so cool beating them up last night!"

"Xan, if you want to cry, just cry. You don't have to hold it back in front of me."

"Why would I cry?"

Samuel looked at her in astonishment, "Aren't you upset?"

"Why would I be upset over those scoundrels? I'm glad to have seen their true colors sooner than later!"

"Really?"

"Of course."

"That's good! I'm relieved!"

Samuel hugged her tightly again, overwhelmed with joy, "My Xan is indeed a smart and bold sweetheart; you truly know how to love and hate!"

"What I mean is... Matthew is just an exception. You can't judge everyone based on him!"

"That wouldn't be fair to others."

Her murmurs were sternly interrupted by Samuel, "Remember how you once said you liked Matthew, how you praised his character and how well he treated you?"

"I was too naive then."

"So, from now on, you must listen to your brother in everything and never go against my decisions!"

Having once handed in the wrong test paper, Xanthea completely lost her right to speak.

Great, it backfired!

She had planned to announce her relationship with Orion to her family once her mom woke up. Now, it seemed if she said anything, Samuel alone would cause an uproar. What should she do?

"Alright, Xan, let's not dwell on these unpleasant things anymore. I'll take you out for some delicious treats!"
