Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 2143

Before they could part ways, Jovan walked up to Ian and Zivon while saying, “…About the antidote…”

“…Go on. Were you able to get it?” asked Ian with a raised brow.

Shaking his head, Jovan replied, “Even though I hired the best men I could find, we were unable to locate where Whitney had hidden the antidote… She probably spent quite a lot just to hide it, so… I’m sorry.”

…Damn it! So nothing changed even after he had lowered his standards?! In the end, all he could do was helplessly look at Zivon.

Zivon himself had a solemn expression on his face as he replied, “I expected this much… She knows that the antidote is her only bargaining chip, so it makes sense that she’d do her absolute best to hide it…”

Upon hearing that, Ian couldn’t help but clench his fists. God, how he wanted to beat that woman up…! After taking a deep breath, he was prompted to say, “…Don’t worry, we’ll come up with something.”

Would they? All their previous efforts had been in vain, and Xavia was probably not going to last for much longer… That aside, Ian had already been ready to marry that insufferable woman, and Mark had risked his life to get that herb for Xavia… At the end of the day, wasn’t he the least useful among them? Could he even call himself her husband?!

Plagued by those thoughts, he eventually headed over to the ward… But before he could enter, he overheard Xavia saying, “Thanks for all the hard work, Mark… Honestly, I can’t help but feel bad-”

Upon hearing that, Xavia sighed before revealing a tired smile. Just what had she done to deserve the love of Ian, Mark, and Zivon…

Unbeknownst to Xavia, Zivon’s expression had turned gloomier than ever outside her ward. After all, he could now see just how deep her bond was with Mark… And if a childhood friend was willing to sacrifice so much for her, what right did he have as her husband to not make just as many sacrifices?

After thinking about it for a bit, he eventually sighed before walking off to get a smoke. He needed something to calm his nerves…

His train of thought was eventually cut short when he heard someone ask, “Something on your mind, Young Master Burton…?”
