Chapter 207

At the same time, Hendric, who was on a business trip, took a flight back to the country and made a dash to the hospital as soon as the plane landed.

When he saw that Xavier and Melissa were fine in the VIP patient room, a wave of relief washed over him.

“D–Dad, you‘re f–finally here.” When she saw her father, Melissa burst into tears as her fragile heart was crushed after having her lege injured.

At the sight of her tear–stained face, his heart throbbed in pain. The family had always treated her as the apple of their eyes, yet she was now injured.

Placing his briefcase aside, he strode over and lifted the quilt to take a look at her condition. “How do you feel? What did the doctor say?”

“Sobs. I–I have to rest for at least three months. It hurts, Dad,” whined the pale–faced girl whose voice was choked up. The sheer sight of her forlorn state would have caused anyone to feel sorry for her.

Attempting to comfort her, Hendric patted her shoulder. “As long as you‘re alright. Don‘t worry about it. You‘ll recover soon. Speaking about it, the Kings Family have gone overboard this time!”

Having said that, he glanced at Xavier with an icy gaze before making his way toward his bed. Ever since Hendric had entered the room, Xavier had been phubbing with his head low in a languid manner. In truth, he actually listened attentively to the conversation just now.

They were all Hendric‘s children, yet he only had his eyes on a few of them and there would never be room for Xavier.

Such thoughts fleeted across Xavier‘s mind before a slap landed on his face at the very next second. Feeling the stinging pain on his cheek, he looked sideways.
