Chapter 878 – An Exasperated David
*****David stepped forward so fast that the chair behind him nearly toppled.Fear rose in his throat, a surge of panic as countless possibilities raced through his mind.Laura trembled again, a pool of tears welling up in her eyes. “I… I don’t know what happened to him,” she finally said, her voice raspy and her words shattering into a sob.The answer only deepened David’s terror, draining his face of every color.“You… you... what do you mean you don’t know what happened to him?” His voice broke as well, disbelief and dread mingling together. David failed to realize that Laura was speaking literally… And Laura, having no idea of the ambiguity in her words, nodded her head anxiously at her husband’s question, her voice trembling as she tried to explain.“He… he hasn’t come home since he left yesterday. And his number…” her voice cracked as she held up her phone, her hands shaking, “…I’ve called him over a thousand times, David. Not once has he picked up.” Her breath hitched
Chapter 879 – David’s Concern
*****‘Of course I know how it feels,’ David thought tiredly, answering her rhetorical question. ‘We both lost him for five long years.’But he didn’t say this aloud, instead, he just watched his wife’s trembling shoulders and sighed again.His wife’s emotions were always like a wildfire… beautiful, dangerous, and impossible to reason with when she was in this state.So, instead of arguing with her, he just raised his hands in surrender and adopted a gentler tone.“Come on, wife,” he said, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. “Have you forgotten? Our son’s not a little boy anymore.”His lips curved into a small, teasing smile. “He’s a grown man now… stubborn, unpredictable, and probably doing something he thinks is important.”Laura sniffled, still glaring but visibly softening a little.“Maybe his phone died,” David continued, shrugging lightly. “Maybe he’s caught up with something urgent. Or maybe… “he gave her a small, crooked grin... “he’s ignoring your calls because
Chapter 880 – The Loving and Understanding Couple
*****Before Xavier got convicted to prison, Laura had never been this… fragile about him.Back then, she was a woman of unshakable composure… strong, patient, and the kind of person who could go days without seeing her son and feel nothing more than mild curiosity and concern.He was busy with his company, and she trusted him completely. If he didn’t call, she would simply assume he was buried in work.It was normal back then, predictable and safe.But that was before prison.Ever since he came back, that fracture had never really healed.Every time Xavier left the house, her chest would tighten as if someone were slowly wringing the air out of her lungs.Every time he tried calling him and his number didn’t go through... or the call went unanswered, she felt her nerves tighten, as though something were scraping against them.And whenever he didn’t come back home on time, it felt as though invisible hands were tugging at her heart, strangling it with fear.She had taught he
Chapter 881 – The Loving and Understanding Couple II
*****DingThe sudden chime of the doorbell sliced through the air, startling both of them so badly that they jerked like guilty teenagers caught sneaking out.Laura, without even the slightest hint of hesitation, leaped out of David’s embrace as if the hug had burned her.And David, blinking in disbelief, first shot a dark look toward the door, acting as though it had personally offended him… then he turned back to his wife, who now looked like a child caught red-handed with her hand in the cookie jar.“Come on, wife,” he groaned, throwing his arms up. “We’ve already been married for more than thirty years, yet you still act like some shy schoolgirl caught making out behind the classroom. Who exactly are you embarrassed for, the furniture?”Laura, “_”She stared at him blankly and with an unreadable expression for a moment, then finally… she stuck out her tongue like a defiant teenager.“That must be our son!” she declared suddenly, her voice bright, cheerful, and full of unc
Chapter 882 – Susan’s Worry
*****At this moment, standing before the towering entrance of Villa Number One… a door so massive and opulent that it looked as though it were made for gods or giants, radiating both power and wealth that didn’t just intimidate but humbled anyone who dared to approach... four figures stood.At the front stood Xavier, appearing calm and composed as he carried the unconscious Williams in his arms, whose blood had dried against his shirt, its dark stains standing out like a grim reminder of what had led them here.To his right stood Grace, her face devoid of any readable emotion.At this moment, her beauty seemed to have been sculpted from ice, appearing stoic, unyielding, and silent… the perfect picture of the Ice Goddess known to the world.It was not the kind of stillness born of peace or indifference, but of someone who had been hurt so much to the extent that she had stopped believing in the world.And then finally, on Xavier’s other side, stood Susan, Grace’s mother.Unlike
Chapter 883 – Susan’s Worry II
*****Susan was incredibly anxious right now.The problem she and her family were already struggling to accept was still there, and now, before they could even come to terms with it, they were already stepping into something far worse… something that might destroy them once and for all.Susan’s heart began to race frantically in her chest, becoming even more anxious than before.Then, finally, she couldn’t keep her silence anymore and opened her mouth, ready to ask Xavier and her daughter for clarification.But just at that moment, before any sound could even leave her mouth… a sudden, sharp click echoed.In the following second, her breath hitched, her entire body stiffening.And just like that… amidst her frantically pounding heart and trembling, terrified soul, the massive door creaked open, slow and heavy, revealing two silhouettes bathed by the golden light of the morning rising sun.A man and a woman.They both looked frail… their faces lined, and their shoulders slight
Chapter 884 – Susan’s Shock
*****Meanwhile, Susan, hearing the couple call Xavier Son, and Xavier, in turn, address the woman as his mother, stood frozen in place at this moment, unable to react for a moment, then finally...Her jaw dropped to the ground, her heart skipping a beat in her chest‘Son?’ Mother?’ Her mind stuttered, her breath hitching.Before she even knew it, Susan swallowed hard, unable to believe her ears.‘Did… did they just address themselves as that?’For a split second, the world around her seemed to blur, her mouth further opening, seemingly unable to make sense of anything again.But before she could even begin to process it, Xavier stopped in his tracks as Laura, still half in shock, raised her trembling hand.“Son, what’s going on here?” she demanded, her tone heavily laced with both confusion and fear, completely ignoring her son’s question as though she had never heard it.Her eyes darted to the unconscious man in Xavier’s arms. “Who is that you’re carrying? He doesn’t look g
Chapter 885 – Susan’s Shock II
*****“He’s fine, Mother,” Xavier quickly reassured his mother, his tone exasperated but patient. “He just fainted. He only needs a few hours of rest, and he will wake up. That’s all.”He spoke with a casual calmness, sounding as though it wasn’t a big deal, as though carrying an unconscious man to his home, to meet his parents, was something perfectly ordinary.But as soon as Susan heard her, however, her temper, which had been struggling to stay contained, finally erupted again.“Don’t say that again!” she snapped, her voice trembling with both fury and anxiety, her sharp tone slicing through the tension like a blade.Yes, she had been completely caught off guard by the realization that the couple who had opened the luxurious mansion were Xavier’s parents, but even then…Her eyes flashed as she glared at him, stepping forward. “It isn’t your place to say his condition!”The force of her words startled the air still, and in the following second;Laura, “_”David, “_”The co
Chapter 886 – Susan’s Shock III
*****Currently standing inside the breathtaking living room of Villa Number One, which screams of generational wealth and the kind of class that only belonged to the first rank powerhouse, Susan couldn’t help but feel her entire sense of reality twist in on itself.Her brain struggled to process what her ears had just heard from Xavier.‘My home?’Just moments ago, before the door opened, she had been terrified, convinced that they were trespassing into a private estate owned by some untouchable magnate from the first-rank powerhouse.She had even half-prepared herself for the humiliation of being dragged out by security, and even worse, punished.Yet when the couple who had emerged from within had addressed Xavier as their son, her panic had melted into awkward relief, making her realize that she had only been overtly paranoid.But even then… she had never imagined that they were the true owners of the mansion. That’s right.As said earlier, Susan wasn’t the kind of woman wh
Chapter 887 – The Doctor’s Arrival
*****Susan had treated Xavier like a lucky man who had stumbled into her daughter’s life, even believing that her daughter had most likely married him in order to get out of the arranged marriage.But now, she couldn’t help but think that it was her daughter who had married up.The irony hit hard.If not for the unexpected events that had ended the meeting and her husband losing consciousness, she had intended to uncover the real truth behind her daughter's marriage to Xavier, planning to push for a divorce if it had been driven by profit or hidden motives. She didn’t want her daughter trapped in a marriage she didn't truly want.But now that she thinks about it, she couldn’t help but feel like the biggest clown in the universe, goosebumps rippling across her skin.Subconsciously, her gaze drifted toward Grace, trying to see if she knew that her husband came from such a wealthy family… but her daughter merely stood there expressionless, a porcelain mask of cold indifference.A
