Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 1701

“With that said, let’s stop meeting from today onward…”

Veins were already popping up on Ian’s forehead as he growled, “Were you fooled by that bastard’s words again…?!”

Irked by his words, Xavia replied, “Please mind your tongue. At the end of the day, this is between me and Von, and you have no right to be calling him names. Also, from what I’ve gathered, you used to have a pretty good relationship with him in the past, right? What changed, and why are you actively trying to ruin my relationship with him? If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you’re just as much of a bad egg as he is! Now without further ado, good day!”

After saying that, she slammed the door behind her and left, causing Jovan’s lips to twitch. Nobody had ever dared to be that angry with the Grand Duke before… In the end, he couldn’t help but mutter, “…Please don’t be mad at her… She just doesn’t know why you care so much about her…”

“…I know, but it’s just so frustrating that she keeps getting fooled by that man! Doesn’t she ever use her head?!” grumbled Ian.

“…Well… If you really want to take better care of her, consider coming up with a way for you two to reunite… That way, you can care for her legitimately. If you don’t do that, she may misunderstand you even more, and you’ll piss off Young Master Burton too… Remember, that man has connections even outside of the business field, so going against him will be rather…”

Looking slightly glum, Ian replied, “…I’ll figure something out.”

Back upstairs, several worried doctors and nurses could be heard exclaiming, “Y-Young Master Burton…! You’re still not fully healed so you can’t leave yet…!”

Zayne was present as well, and he was quick to add, “Brother Zivon, you know your heart’s condition more than anyone else, and you’ve yet to go through a full check-up too. Please stop being so hard on yourself…!”

…So, she still refused to believe him, huh? With his fury reaching new heights, he simply said, “…Indeed! She said that she was sad that she had to head home alone, so isn’t it only right for me to console her?”

How words left Xavia speechless. While she already knew that he had cheated on her, the fact that he was so proudly declaring that he’d put his health aside for that bitch irked Xavia beyond comparison. So, all that sweet talk had been nothing but fucking lies, huh…?! As they said, successful people were incapable of pure love!

As their pressuring auras filled the area, the terrified Zayne gulped before muttering, “U-um… What are you even talking about, Brother Zivon…? You’re about to marry Mrs. Burton, so there’s no point in consoling some other lady! A-anyway, do get a seat so that I can reattach your IV drip…!”

Alas, Zivon simply continued glaring at Xavia who was glaring daggers right back at him. It honestly hurt to see her acting all aloof toward him, and though he wanted to calm things down, his anger made him ask, “…Well? Why did you return instead of leaving with Ian?”
