Isabel's eyes widened as she stared at the handsome man before her, feeling both shocked and unsure of how to respond.

Xander, who had always kept his distance from women, was now holding her!

The sudden change made her remember that she had previously discovered Xander's usual avoidance of women. Before that, he hadn't confronted her because of her ability to heal Samuel's legs. She knew she had to be careful not to push him too far, or she might end up being kicked out.

"No need. I'm a doctor myself. There's no need for Leo to go. Just let him carry me upstairs," Isabel quickly interjected.

Xander ascended the stairs with Isabel in his arms, his expression stern.

Rachel was taken aback. She needed to make things clear today.
