Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 1712

He, for one, had always hated hospitals, and he had even planned to get discharged tonight, but… After hearing what Xavia had to say, he suddenly felt like he didn’t hate the idea of being hospitalized for a bit longer…

Shaking his head, he quickly replied, “It’s not Xav’s fault, Mom… She only grew upset because I took care of other women behind her back. With that said, please take the kids home with you... I don’t want them catching any viruses floating around the hospital. Don’t worry, Xav will take care of me.”

Since he was defending Xavia like this, Wendy knew that there was nothing else she could say against that. Following a sigh, she was prompted to reply, “Well… alright, I’m sure you young people can take care of your own issues… I won’t hold it against Xavia either, as long as you promise to take better care of your health… I’ll be bringing the kids home now, but feel free to call if you need anything…”

“Let me send you off!” replied Xavia as she led Wendy out…

When she finally returned, she looked at Zivon before muttering, “Look, I was the one who made you sick, and I take responsibility for that… That aside, Aunt is just worried about you, so speaking up for me would make her sad…”

Gently pulling her to the bed, Zivon replied, “Well, I was the one who made you upset in the first place, so it wouldn’t be right to have my mother make you suffer even more than you have to…”

…Though it was common for men to have problems when it came to their mothers and wives, it was clear that Zivon prioritized her… As they said, good men were as addictive as drugs…

Either way, everything was calm for a while… that is, until an unexpected guest showed up. It was Zivon’s father, Herschel!

“You’re as flashy as ever, huh? Getting yourself hospitalized days before your wedding,” mocked Hershel as he entered the ward.

“You…! Why the hell are we even talking about this?! I came here for another goddamned reason! Listen here, boy…! Whitney is now Dennis’ goddaughter, which means that all of his property belongs to her! In other words, you need to marry her!” growled the infuriated Hershel.

“…The fuck did you just say to me?” glowered Zivon.

“You heard me. In the past, she rescued that old man, which is why he gave her all his assets before he passed away. What’s more, his will states that whoever marries her gets to inherit all his properties! You know better than I that Dennis was extremely wealthy, so if you marry her, the Burton family’s status will surely reach new heights!”

Glaring straight into Hershel’s soul, Zivon retorted, “Allow me to remind you that you people were the ones who had forced me to stay away from Whitney back when she was just a poor, ordinary girl…! Don’t you think you’re a bit shameless to have me marry her only because she’s rich now…?!”
