Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 2225

With that in mind, the second the doctors left, she couldn’t help but ask, “…Um… Von…? You seem pretty close to Jennie, and… you still haven’t told me why she was at Whitney’s place too…”

Since Zivon hadn’t planned to tell Xavia about Jenna’s true identity yet, he simply replied, “Close? She’s simply there because we equally despise Whitney, and I had no reason to stop her since she was helping us.”

…So he admitted to asking for Jennie’s help… Which meant that Whitney’s recording hadn’t been fabricated? He truly had said that he would be more willing to treat Whitney kindly as long as Jennie was present? Xavia hated the fact that she was starting to overthink things again, but she really couldn’t help it. It was high time for her to ask for an explanation.

Alas, just as she was about to do so, Zivon added, “Anyway, get some rest for now… I’ll be heading to the lab area to do some tests. However, if you can’t sleep, you’re free to join me there…”

Though she couldn’t tell whether he was just trying to change the subject, his words were still touching, and Xavia told herself to be more mature for now. She could ask about this once the more important things had been resolved!

With that, she eventually replied, “…Um… Could you carry me over, Von…?”

Pausing for a moment, Zivon smirked as he seductively replied, “Hmm… What an intimate request… I have no problem with that, though… Perhaps you should consider requesting one other thing…”

Though veins were already bulging on the infuriated man’s forehead, he knew that he couldn’t blame them for this. After all, not even he had foreseen this situation! Alas, what was done, was done!

Looking at Xavia who had fallen asleep in the lounge, his gaze fell a little as he growled, “…Come up with a cure…! Stat!”

After saying that, he carried Xavia back to the treatment room and lay her in bed… However, before he could walk off to deal with Whitney, Xavia suddenly held his wrist before saying, “Von…”

Honestly, she had woken up a while back, but since everyone was so busy, she had chosen to continue pretending to be asleep. Regardless, after giving him a good, long stare, she eventually added, “…Look… Please promise not to agree to any more of Whitney’s disillusioned requests… Even if I have to suffer, I still wish to continue being your wife…”
