Chapter 34

The doctor moved Jessica to a private VIP ward as directed by Xavier. She did not know how long she had been sleeping when she opened her eyes.

She felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen as she looked around. She sat up gently and looked around. She saw Xavier sitting on the sofa in the far corner of the room.

"Stay down," he said, walking up to her.

"What of work?" she asked, blinking multiple times like an innocent child.

"I'm the next chairman," Xavier said with so much pride dripping from each word.

He already assumed the role of the chairman, but since his grandfather was still alive, everyone still addressed Dawson as the chairman. Jessica wondered bow she had already forgotten to who she got married.

"I said lie down, the doctor said you needed all the rest you could get," Xavier said with the fear that was reflected in his eyes in the morning still lingering.

"How long have I slept for?" Jessica asked, ignoring his order, to sleep.
