Chapter 338
“I want to go see Mom!”
“Hold on a second.”
Just as Xanthea was about to run out, Samuel stopped her.
“What’s wrong?”
“Alex said Mom just woke up, her mood and mental state are still pretty unstable. She needs some good rest. I’m worried if you go now, seeing you might upset her again,”
“You’re right. Let Dad take good care of her for now. Ill go see her later.”
Seeing her cheerful expression without a trace of sadness, thinking she was just holding back her sorrow, he suddenly gave her a tight hug.
“Xan, I’m so sorry, so sorry!”
“Samuel, what’s
gotten into you?”
“It’s all my fault for being so careless, for not fulfilling my duties as a brother, for not discovering the true nature of those two cheaters earlier, that I caused you so much pain and suffering! Don’t worry, I will never let them off. Even if they don’t die, they’ll wish they had!” As he spoke, his voice was filled with hatred, as if he truly wanted to devour them alive. Xanthea laughed and patted his back in consolation. “It’s okay, Samuel. You’ve already stood up for me. You looked so cool beating them up last night!”
“Xan, if you want to cry, just cry. You don’t have to hold it back in front of me.
“Why would I cry?”
Samuel looked at her in astonishment, “Aren’t you upset?”
“Why

“Really?”
“Of course.”
That’s good! I’m relieved!”
Samuel hugged her tightly again, overwhelmed with joy. “My Xan is indeed a smart and bold sweetheart, you truly hatel”

He had thought she would be heartbroken and unable to recover, given how long she had liked Matthew. He never expected her to bounce back so quickly!
“Samuel, you’re choking me!”
“Xan, don’t ever fall in love again. Don’t let those deceitful men trick you. Just stay with me, I’ll take care of you for life!”
Huh?
Xanthea, still coughing, suddenly heard something shocking, blinking in disbelief.
But she had already..
“Samuel, we can’t just stop eating because we choked once, right? There are many good men out there besides those insincere jerks.”
Like Orion!
“What do you mean?”
Samuel frowned at her words, expecting her to be moved and agree. But instead, she seemed undeterred by the incident and still had a romantic heart. Truly a hopeless romantic!
“What I mean is… Matthew is just an exception. You can’t judge everyone based on him!”
“That wouldn’t be fair to others.”
Her murmurs were sterly interrupted by Samuel, “Remember how you once said you liked Matthew, how you praised his character and how well he treated you?”
“I was too naive then.”

“So, from now on, you must listen to your brother in everything and never go against my decisions!”
Having once handed in the wrong test paper, Xanthea completely lost her right to speak
Great it backfired!

She had planned to announce her relationship with Orion to her family once her mom woke up. Now, it seemed If she said anything. Samuel alone would cause an uproar. What should she do?
“Alright, Xan, let’s not dwell on these unpleasant things anymore: I take you out for some delicious treats!”
