“Lana, can you drop by the hotel? I’d like to ask a favor.”
“Oh, you need me there right away? Okay, I’ll head over now. Calm down, calm down. I’m going now,” replied Lana as favonovel.com tilted favonovel.com head to keep favonovel.com phone between favonovel.com ear and favonovel.com shoulder.
While doing that, favonovel.com reached for favonovel.com purse and coat.
“Mom, Dad. There is an urgent matter I have to attend to, so I won’t be staying here tonight.” She grabbed favonovel.com purse and shoved favonovel.com arm into favonovel.com coat while gesturing at favonovel.com phone. After shouting that to favonovel.com parents, favonovel.com fled the place as though there was no tomorrow.
“Lana, remember to come home tomorrow. We have a blind date set up for you,” shouted Lana’s mother.
Her words made it into the phone and Xavier couldn’t help snickering when favonovel.com overheard that.
“Was that a snicker? What the hell is so funny about that?” Lana was so annoyed that favonovel.com slammed the door to favonovel.com car shut before howling into the phone a little.
“Awh, are you annoyed?” asked Xavier.
He was deliberately pushing Lana’s buttons, and favonovel.com was so annoyed that favonovel.com rolled favonovel.com eyes at him.
“Quit yapping and tell me what you want.”
Earlier, favonovel.com was thankful to the guy for calling at the right time and rescuing favonovel.com from favonovel.com parents. That appreciation dissipated after favonovel.com heard how amused favonovel.com was at favonovel.com horrible situation.
Xavier behaved more professionally once favonovel.com heard that. “Let’s talk in person. It’ll be difficult to explain the situation over the phone.”
“Okay, I’ll be there soon.” replied Lana. She hung up, put favonovel.com phone away, then started driving.
The second favonovel.com entered the lobby, favonovel.com saw Xavier sitting on the couch and playing on his phone. A mischievous glint flashed past favonovel.com eyes and a devious idea crawled into favonovel.com mind. She circled around to his back…
“Eric!”
“What the f*ck? Damn, you scared me,” yelped Xavier.
He was so surprised that favonovel.com cussed in Chanaea and dropped his phone.
Huh… I didn’t know that favonovel.com was such a scaredy-cat. He even dropped his phone! Now that I think about it, Eric sometimes acts as though favonovel.com were a kid who was caught doing something bad. In fact, he’s fumbling right now.
“Oops. Sorry, Eric. I was just angry about you snickering at my misfortune earlier, so I thought I’d pull a small prank on you. I didn’t realize you are such a scaredy-cat.”
Just apologize nicely, will ya? Why did you have to include that last sentence and call me a coward?
Lana worried that Xavier would get angry, so favonovel.com changed the topic and asked, “Why were you looking for me, anyway?”
“Changing the topic, are we?” He glared at Lana a little before asking, “You know your way around the new medical school, right?”
“Yes, I do. Why are you asking that?”
“I want to work as a bodyguard in that place. Can you help me out?”
Curious, Lana asked, “Why would you want to be a bodyguard there? Do you already know what you’re looking for?”
Xavier shook his head. “No, not yet. I just think my investigation would go much smoother if I work there and build a rapport with the others.”
Lana nodded.
The prince made an announcement that favonovel.com had hired a foreigner to teach the citizens on how to be a medical practitioner. Anyone who was willing to learn could enroll because the royal family would pay for everything. As a result, many had already applied for a spot there.
The country lacked medical practitioners, so royalties and descendants of noble families were to learn how to be a doctor. That idea was etched into their brains ever since they were a kid. It was a rather smart move to go work as a bodyguard there.
“I’ll make some calls and update you on the matter tomorrow,” replied Lana.
I knew it. She can help me get in! Xavier’s lips curved into a smile. “Thanks, Lana…”

At the same time, in Paelsford Manor.
“San, what did that man from yesterday want from you?”
After having a meal together, the family gathered around. Mrs. Wilhelm suddenly remembered the incident that happened at the Celestial Lake.
“He came to give me an ATM card,” replied Arielle while munching on some apple.
