Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 284

After a brief pause, he said sternly, “Did you have a fight with someone?”

“Dad!” Xander’s eyes shot daggers at Zavier as he hissed angrily, but he seemed to have overdone it and hurt the wound on his face with all that movement. So instead, he donned a weak grin and pointed at his face with a trembling hand. “Does this look like I fought with someone? Besides, I’m not a child anymore; I’m done fighting with other people!”

Feeling pain was his greatest fear. He would rather kneel and beg for mercy than try to start fights he knew he wouldn’t win.

Zavier’s face softened a little at that. “Then, tell me. Just… Just what in the world happened to you?”

“How would I know? I’m even more confused than you right now.” Xander was dumbfounded. But he went through the sequence of events in his head again and said. “Just as I got off the car, someone hit me from behind, and I fainted. I have no memory of anything that happened after that.”

Xander continued, “When I woke up, there were injuries all over my body, and everything hurt.” As he thought about that, he started to cry again and turned toward Isabella. “Mom, you have to help me. Look at what they did to your son; you can’t just let the culprit go.”

Isabella was as furious as she was worried. “How can I help you like this? You don’t even know who hit you.”

Zavier looked at the two of them wordlessly, then turned around and walked out of the ward. After thinking for a bit, he took out his phone and was about to make a call when it suddenly rang in his hand. When he saw the name of the caller, his eyes flickered with emotion.

He stared at his phone for a brief moment before raising it to his ear. “Chris.”

Christopher merely said, “I heard Xander was admitted to the hospital. Is it serious?”

Zavier snorted and chuckled drily. “You’re well-informed, Chris. In such a short amount of time, you managed to sniff out that Xander had been admitted to the hospital.”

To that, Christopher replied, “Can’t I be worried about my relatives?”

Zavier didn’t say anything more. He already had a vague idea of how Xander got hurt.
