Xyla laughed because she was ‘touched’. “You would do anything for him? Would you die for him?”
Jodie’s face froze. “What are you trying to say?”
Xyla picked up the fruit knife from the table and got out of bed. Everyone who was standing outside
was shocked.
Jodie immediately took a few steps back.” Have you lost your mind?”
She touched the handle.
“Didn’t you say you would do anything for him? If you’re willing, then why are you trying to avoid it?”
Jodie thought that she had lost her mind, and so did everyone outside. They immediately went to get
the doctor to avoid someone getting gravely hurt.
Xyla didn’t care, but instead, she smiled.” Don’t worry. We’re at the hospital. If I stab you once, you
won’t die. Here, prove that you’re willing to shed some blood for your husband.”
She held up the knife, and Jodie was very afraid. She pushed her away and ran to the doorway. “Don’t
you come near me, Xyla! You’re a lunatic!”
Xyla’s wound was still healing. That push triggered the pain, but she endured it with a smile, “You
swore that you were willing to do anything for him, but you won’t even take a stab?”
She snorted and stared crazily at the pale Jodie. “What’s the point of pretending? If you’re really
married, why not just call him to come over and clear things up?”
“I’m giving you a chance to call Mr.Hathaway over and bring your wedding certificate. If you don’t, you
need to get on your knees and apologize.”
Jodie choked because she didn’t expect Xyla to see through her plan. If she called Yorrick over, it
would…
The doctor walked over and raised his arm when he saw the knife in Xyla’s hand.” Ma’am, please put
down the knife.”
The people in the crowd started speaking out as well. “Yes, you’re so young and have a long life ahead
of you.”
“There’s no need to cause any harm.”
“Put the knife down.”
Before Xyla said anything, a man behind the crowd said, “Excuse me.”
The people blocking the doorway separated, and Yorrick walked in with two bodyguards. He looked at
the doctor and then at Xyla, who was holding the knife.
He frowned. “What’s going on here?”
The doctor explained, “Someone said that this girl is suicidal.”
Xyla laughed and put down the fruit knife.” I’m not suicidal. I was just scaring her because she said that
she would do anything for you, her husband. I asked if she would take a stab for you, but she wouldn’t,
so it was just a lie.”
“Husband?” Yorrick’s eyes narrowed, and he then glared at Jodie.
Her body shuddered. “What’s going on? Why would he suddenly show up!?’
I’ve never been married in the past over three decades of my life. So how did I get a wife?” Yorrick
loosened the strap on his watch.
One of the patients at the door was curious. “You’re not her husband? So you’re the patient’s…” Yorrick
was quiet for a moment before he answered, “Boyfriend.” Everyone suddenly understood. It wasn’t the
wife making a scene with the mistress it was the mistress trying to cause a scene!
Jodie almost bit her lip open when she heard the chatter outside.
Why was she so unlucky that Yorrick showed up? “Mr. Hathaway, l-I didn’t mean to, I just-”
Jodie wanted to continue, but Yorrick glared ‘at her coldly, “I’ve seen shameless people, but I’ve never
seen someone like you. Do you know yourself? Or do you think you’re s*xy enough to seduce men?”
