glanced at the young, gorgeous newcomer speechlessly. Then, she uttered in disagreement, “How can you say that? Mr. and Mrs. Fairchild have a very strong and healthy relationship. Besides, Mrs. Fairchild’s condition will certainly be cured. Mr. and Mrs. Fairchild are wealthy, so they will definitely find a way to treat her eyes. You are

anger flared up whenever he was reminded of his little sister’s current condition.In fact, he had gained a better understanding of the situation because Winnie had explained the circumstances to him, and Xavier couldn’t be blamed for everything that had happened.Nevertheless, Wilhelm was still mad at Xavier.He needed to teach the latter a lesson, so he punched him.Xavier didn’t retaliate and merely endured Wilhelm’s wrath. After getting beaten by Wilhelm and falling to the ground, he got back to his feet and stood before Wilhelm again.Wilhelm restrained himself after punching Xavier twice. Subsequently, the two began drinking in depression and frustration.After finishing a bottle of alcohol, Wilhelm rubbed his temples and said to Xavier, “Do something with the injury on your face.”Xavier propped his head up wearily and responded, “That’s not necessary.

How can you still be asleep when the sun is already high in the sky?”When Winnie touched the wound on the corner of his lips, Xavier subconsciously hissed in pain.Puzzled, she immediately retracted her arm and asked him while
