Chapter 361

Liesel had always known that pregnancy, miscarriage, or childbirth could cause significant damage to a woman's body, but she only truly understood it after experiencing it herself.She felt weak and dizzy. She was occasionally seeing spots and dry-heaving. Her legs were unsteady, and her entire body felt like it was walking on cotton.But this was Xavier's graduation prom night, and she wanted to dance with him.She wanted to tell him that she was there for him and he wasn't alone."Come on. Dance with me," she said with a smile.Xavier paused for a moment before taking her hand again and pulling her into an embrace. He could clearly smell the faint scent of herbs on her. She'd been drinking medicine lately.She had really been through a lot.As they danced, Xavier looked down to meet Liesel's eyes, which were always gentle and smiling whenever she looked at him.Sometimes, Xavier thought that the way Liesel looked at him didn't seem like the gaze of an older sister at her youn

Xavier continued, "Now I get it. You didn't refuse to let me grow up with you. You chose a path for me that would let me survive. You wanted me to have an easier, carefree life. And when I got hurt, you were right there in danger too."Even now, with all that you've achieved, they still insult you because of your gender. It seems like the only way for you to avoid their malice is to climb higher, to stand at the top and look down on everyone."You wanted me to escape this life, but you're trapped in the nightmare forever. I've figured it out now."Xavier held Liesel's cold fingers and awkwardly mimicked Elijah's usual gesture to warm them up. "Can we forgive each other?"He would forgive her for years of neglect and disregard, and she would forgive him for hurting her.She was his sister, and he was her little brother. They were a family.Although Xavier only said to forgive each other, Liesel could almost read his true feelings in the depths of his eyes.Her throat tightened, a

Xavier sat still. The warm breeze swept through his hair, which revealed his handsome face. He didn't unbuckle his seatbelt or get out of the car. Instead, his gaze was fixed on Elijah's face."I can't leave in this situation," Xavier said calmly. "You can take me with you."Elijah's face remained serious as he ignored Xavier's objection and unbuckled his seatbelt. "Don't be stubborn. Lili will be heartbroken if something happens to you."He chose the word "heartbroken" instead of "guilty."Xavier's gaze turned sharp and intense. "Wouldn't you be heartbroken if something happened to Liesel? I'm her brother, and you're her lover."Who was more important—her brother or her lover? No one would have an answer to that.Xavier and Liesel were clearly siblings. Their temperaments were so similar. If it were Liesel in this situation, would she act differently? No. She wouldn't abandon Elijah to go off on her own either."Listen to me, Xavier."Elijah cracked his knuckles and said serio

Augustine closed in. His broad frame loomed, and as he raised his arm, the muscles in his bicep flexed. He pushed back his damp blond hair, exposing his sweaty forehead. His rugged, audacious face came into view. He was hot, but compared to Elijah, he carried a rougher, darker edge."Is it because of Ms. Sharp? I really want to know what kind of face she has that makes you so obsessed with her. Is she more beautiful than Duke Sylvian's daughter?"Augustine's hatred for Elijah stemmed from their past. Augustine had once been madly in love with Finlay Sylvian's daughter, but she only had eyes for Elijah.On top of that, Elijah had completely outshone him in racing. It was no surprise that Augustine's jealousy had turned into bitter resentment.Elijah's expression darkened at his words. With a swift motion, he grabbed Augustine by the collar. His voice was cold and deadly as he warned, "Direct your madness at me. Don't lay a finger on Lili, or I'll haunt you even in death."Augustine

Xavier's white shirt was soaked in blood. The deep wound from the glass shards lodged in his chest, and blood was gushing in steady spurts."Hang in there, Xavier! You can't pass out! I'm taking you to the hospital!" Ethan's voice was frantic as he held Xavier.Elijah had trusted him with Xavier's safety. He couldn't let Xavier fall here.Ethan struggled to hail a cab while holding Xavier steady.Xavier opened his eyes and wiped the blood from his forehead. His voice was no longer calm. "Bandage my wound. Take me to the exam venue." He sounded determined."Are you out of your mind? How can you take the exam in this condition?" Ethan's eyes widened as he argued. He was going to force Xavier to the hospital. "I need to take the exam. Elijah asked you to take me," Xavier said.As soon as Elijah's name slipped out, Ethan gritted his teeth in frustration.He was also injured and weak, yet he couldn't help but be taken aback by the reckless determination emanating from Xavier."Dam

The reporters continued clamoring for answers."Is that student the one you value the most, Principal Davis? I remember your prized pupil is Xavier Scott. Was that him?"Helena's expression grew darker. She maintained her composure and answered firmly, "Apologies. We'll provide answers after the exams are over."The college entrance exam began.Sitting in his seat, Xavier pressed his fingers to his temples. His head spun violently. The nausea surged to the point where he felt like he would vomit. Clamping down on the discomfort, he forced himself to focus and began writing furiously.The invigilator frequently passed by his desk. She initially wanted to ask if he needed medical assistance. But upon glancing at Xavier's rows of accurate answers on his paper, she refrained from interrupting.Still, her gaze often lingered on his bloodstained clothes, which stood out starkly in the exam room.When the first exam concluded, Xavier collapsed onto his desk. He was clearly at his limit

Xavier must be out of his mind to attend the college entrance exam in such a condition."I don't recommend continuing the exam in his current state," Denzel said directly.He had considered every angle. Xavier was a genius from Ashthorne First High School and was predicted to be the top scorer on this exam. He stood at the pinnacle. If he faltered, it would be a fall from grace.No one would care if Xavier had been in an accident or was injured during the exam. They would only care about the results.Just like now, with Liesel.Unless Xavier produced outstanding results after the exam to overshadow the potential failure, he would only face ridicule."I can do it." Xavier's voice was hoarse. His gaze dropped to the IV needle in his hand. His other hand wanted to clench into a fist, but even the slightest movement sent waves of pain from his fractured arm."It's just high school material. I can do it," he repeated.Denzel looked at him. His eyes were soft but stern. "You're not t

"Xavier, feeling any better?" Liesel asked.She maneuvered her wheelchair closer to him. Her eyes swept over the injuries on his forehead, arm, and chest, and the cuts on his face left by shattered glass. He looked battered and pitiful.The words stuck in Xavier's throat. He couldn't meet her gentle gaze as he felt guilty."Liesel... I'm sorry. I couldn't bring him home," he murmured. He tried to sound composed, but his voice betrayed him. It was heavy with emotion."This wasn't your responsibility." Liesel took his IV-connected hand in hers. Her fingers were still cold, yet somehow, Xavier felt a faint warmth radiating from her touch."We're adults, Xavier. Sometimes, we make mistakes. When we do, we must bear the consequences of our actions. It's our fault for dragging you into this. You deserve a peaceful life. I was the one who pulled you into this chaos."Liesel had thought it through clearly.For years, Xavier had suffered in the Scott family. Now, just as he was about to

Chapter 369

Who else could be called a male enchantress in the business world?The first name that sprang to mind was Jordan Steele, the vice CEO of Shifter Corporation. He was infamous for his stunning looks.Rumors swirled that during Shifter Corporation's early days abroad, Jordan had been relentlessly pursued—not just by women but by droves of men.Coincidentally, over half of those who had courted him had also pursued Liesel.At that moment, Jordan's expression lacked its usual cheer, but he still managed a casual greeting. His striking looks were so breathtaking that even Xavier was momentarily stunned."Why are you here?" Liesel asked."Isn't it obvious?"Jordan dragged a chair over and sat down casually. "Now that Elijah's in trouble, who else can you turn to? You wouldn't consider anyone from Ford Corporation, and you'd only consult Dr. Johanson here if absolutely necessary."You're not exactly close to Elijah's friends, so you won't go to Tobey and Jimmy. That's why I'm here, vol

If Liesel truly was the head of Shifter Corporation, it would change everything.Shifter Corporation had revolutionized domestic commercial capital.It was the first Draskian company to establish a foothold abroad. It broke into the Fortune 500 within a year and dominated the fields of renewable energy and cybersecurity in just three years. Now, it was a global powerhouse that businesses worldwide sought to partner with.The idea that such a company—one that inspired awe at the mere mention of its name—belonged to Liesel was staggering.Denzel sat silently on the couch for a long time.He raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose. At this moment, he couldn't say a single word. He even felt that anything he said now would be pointless.How deeply had Liesel once loved Jacob to the point of forgetting who she was?She had set aside all her glory, all her accomplishments, just to get close to him. And in return, she had received only indifference and harm.Denzel's throat
