Xavier typed: Look into Zyon’s background again. For example, find out if it’s possible that the hospital he was born in mistook him for someone else.

The person he was messaging soon replied: Roger! So far, we’ve discovered that Jacinta’s true birthplace may be somewhere else. I believe we’ll be able to find out where it is soon!

Xavier: Do it quickly! After reading the reply to his order, Xavier frowned slightly. It seems like there is more than meets the eye to Jacinta.

Pondering the matter in detail for a moment, he then gestured for his bodyguard to follow him.

He brought the bodyguard to a spot far away from Jacinta’s ward because he didn’t want the people inside to hear what he had to say next. “I’m going to ask you a few questions, and I expect you to answer them truthfully. Don’t hold back, understand?”

His overly serious tone terrified the bodyguard. “I-I understand, Mr. Fairchild. I’ll answer your questions truthfully.”

“Good.” Xavier raised his eyebrow and looked at the bodyguard. “When you were chasing after Mdm. Sumner, did she really fall down the stairs by accident? Or did she pretend to do so? You don’t need to worry about anything. Just tell me exactly what happened.”

With furrowed eyebrows, the bodyguard answered, “That, I am not sure. There were a lot of people at the station back then, so I couldn’t clearly see how she fell down the stairs. According to what she said, she was tripped by someone and fell. She was already at the bottom of the stairs when I caught up to her.”

“Okay. Did she contact anyone after she woke up? Or did anyone call her?”

“Nope!” That word left the bodyguard’s mouth instantly because he was very certain about that.

“Mhm. In that case, just protect Mdm. Sumner for the time being. Additionally, I want you to pay attention to her every move.”

“Roger!”

“One last thing,” Xavier hastily added with an incredibly serious expression. “Do not let Winnie learn about our conversation! Not even a single word of it! Do you understand?”

“I do! Don’t worry, Mr. Fairchild. I can definitely do that.”

Xavier nodded. “Very well. Go and guard the entrance now. If Winnie asks about me, tell her I went to the restroom.”

With that said, he ambled in the direction of the restroom.

That was because he was suddenly experiencing discomfort. It was as though the blood in his entire body was getting restless, which was a sign that his condition was about to act up. Thus, he needed to go to the restroom immediately and wash his face with cold water to calm himself down.

After more than a dozen minutes had passed, Winnie stepped out of the ward.

When the bodyguard saw her, he promptly explained, “Mr. Fairchild went to the restroom, Mrs. Fairchild. He’ll be back soon. Why don’t you sit here and wait for him?”

“It’s fine.” She was planning to go to the restroom anyway. “You just need to focus on protecting Granny well. There’s no need to pay attention to anything else.”

The instant she ended her sentence, she saw Xavier approaching her.

Winnie strode toward him. “Where’s the restroom? Take me there.”

Then she eyed him and asked, “What happened to your hair? Why is it so wet?”

“I accidentally drenched my hair when I was washing my face. It’s way too hot here. I’m soaked with sweat,” Xavier explained casually.

He wasn’t technically wrong. Although, the sweat on his body wasn’t just because of the heat. It was also due to his attempt at concealing his relapse.
