Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 1048

Before she could even type the third word, however, Zivon suddenly received a call… and upon picking up, he immediately heard, “Y-Young Master Burton! Lady Burton fell at the back of the mountain, and she’s been sent to the hospital! From what the family doctor told me, she… may not make it… With that said, please return as soon as possible, Young Master Burton…!”

Upon hearing that, Zivon instantly frowned. Watching as he got up, Sophia—who had never seen him so anxious—was prompted to follow as she asked, “What’s wrong, President Burton? Is it regarding Lady Burton? Allow me to accompany you!”

Following that, the two swiftly made their way to the hospital… and upon their arrival, they were just in time to witness a serious-looking doctor exiting the operation room that Ava was supposed to be in. Realizing that Zivon was here, the doctor sighed before saying, “…I’m sorry, Young Master Burton, but there really isn’t much we can do… She’s now inches away from death, so do talk to her while you still can…”

Now looking as dark as night, Zivon then entered the operation room and sat next to Ava’s bed while saying, “…Grandma.”

Looking extremely pale, Ava trembled as her feeble hand grabbed onto Zivon’s wrist… and with the last bit of energy in her, she was prompted to reply, “…Don’t… Marry Xavia… Marry… S-Sophia…!”

And just like that, she was gone. His eyes widening in utmost horror, Zivon immediately roared, “Grandma…!”

Despite how cold he usually was, grief immediately overpowered the man as reality set in. This… This was his first time witnessing the passing of someone close to him…! Due to Zivon’s howl of anguish, several people quickly rushed in, including none other than Jenna…

Though she looked extremely sorrowful as she stood by Ava’s bed, the truth couldn’t be any further.

It was about half an hour ago when Ava had asked Jenna to make her some bamboo shoot soup. However, when she said she didn’t know how to make the soup, Ava instantly grew suspicious. After all, ‘Jenna’ had made her that soup before.

While Jenna was able to change the topic in time, she knew that Ava would continue looking into the matter. If that old fool was successful, then she’d surely learn that Xavia was the actual person who had saved her back then! Following that, she’d surely agree to allow Xavia to marry Zivon!

“Though you’re now gone, you’ll live on in the hearts of we entrepreneurs…”

“Enjoy your stay in heaven…”

After reading through all that, even Xavia couldn’t help but shed tears… She, for one, had always thought that Ava was simply some snobbish person. To think that that woman had achieved such great things in life during her younger days… Come to think of it, that was probably why Ava hated her so much…

In comparison to that high-achieving woman, Xavia was an ordinary Joe… A nobody, and an inauspicious one at that… It certainly explained why she was more willing to like Jenna and Sophia… Whatever the case was, she wasn’t about to hold a grudge against a dead woman…
