Please behave My Lord

Chapter 578: The Best Performance

How could the son have gone out, could it be to buy something or something?

They both looked at the Leopold next to them and felt especially curious for a moment.

-Let's see, maybe he is gluttonous and is buying something and getting ready to come back," Leopoldo heard his little friend say that and made assumptions.

-I won't forgive myself if he's gone," Mariana muttered under her breath as she walked towards the door.

In her heart, she was already making bad plans. In her mind, she felt that her son would never behave in such a wicked way.

Besides, little Daniel had eaten before he left, so why would he walk out the hospital doors.

-Everything is going to be fine, you must not be too nervous," Leopoldo saw Mariana's reaction and hurried to calm the other woman's emotions.

Mariana looked at Leopoldo at her side and, with a slight shudder in her heart, suddenly didn't want to say anything.

The duo ran to the hospital entrance and looked for little Daniel, who was nowhere to be seen.

-Are you going out so soon?

Seeing Mariana trembling and panicking, Xavier rushed to ask her what was wrong.

Mariana saw Xavier sitting in his car with the black box in front of him, right in front of the hospital door.

-How long have you been here?

Mariana looked at this Xavier and for a moment she didn't mind having anything to do with him.

Xavier, somewhat puzzled, looked at the steering wheel.

He straightened up and looked at Mariana before answering.

-I've only been here for two minutes, what's going on?

-Have you seen my son, who is Daniel?

Mariana's anxious eyes looked at Xavier, how she wished she could hear from his lips the answer she was waiting for.

Xavier shook his head, indicating that he had not seen him. He had just arrived too, so how could he have happened to run into Mariana's son?

-He's never like this, something must have happened," Mariana began to mutter to herself once she had read Xavier's response, and the more she thought about it, the more worried she became. Xavier looked at the woman, trying to comfort the other man.

-Is there no surveillance at the main entrance? Let's go to the security room now and set up surveillance, surely we can see if he's left the hospital gates.

Without giving Xavier a chance to say anything, Leopoldo prepared to leave with Mariana.

He would not let Xavier near Mariana.

-Yes, there is surveillance at the main entrance of the hospital," Mariana immediately snapped back to attention when she heard Leopoldo remind her. The hospital was very large, but most areas were guarded, so she was sure she could find her son.

-Let's go," Mariana looked at Leopoldo and turned to the other man.

As for Xavier, who had stayed behind, Mariana had no time or space to worry at the moment.

-So it's no use someone you don't want to look at more than once -Xavier muttered a couple of words alone as he watched the woman's back.

But this was Mariana, the woman he remembered.

It's just that Mariana, now, looks more attractive than ever.

Where could a little boy run off to? But based on what Mariana said, it seems that little Daniel had never been like this before. If one had to make a wild guess, it could be that someone had moved in. -I thought you weren't coming to the hospital.

Before Xavier had a chance to leave, a shrill, female voice came from behind him.

The voice was more than familiar, it was Emily, a woman inexplicable to him.

-You're not out of the hospital yet? -Xavier looked at the other man and asked the woman rhetorically.

Emily's foot isn't too broken, but she'll need recovery time to get the best out of it.

She was made to look like this, all thanks to Xavier.

But this man was good, now he was standing there talking, causing her to be in this state, and the man didn't feel a bit of guilt.

-It's only been a few days since I was discharged, haven't you heard that it takes a hundred days to break a bone? -Emily replied to the other man without much anger.

Xavier had long been used to seeing women of violent character. But what this woman's character was like, he didn't care.

-Then I wish you a speedy recovery," Xavier said politely before preparing to enter the hospital.

Seeing that the man was about to leave, Emily stopped him immediately.

-Just a moment!

She shouted and Xavier unconsciously stopped in his tracks, and at the same time, the people around looked at them.

Xavier was speechless, had Emily always been unconcerned about her image in front of others?

-Can you tell what's going on at once? -Xavier turned to the other man with a headache.

He found Emily's way of speaking and acting unpleasant, especially because he thought he didn't know the woman very well.

-Didn't you come to the hospital to see me?

Emily saw Xavier talking to Mariana earlier, but she was about to ask the other person herself.

Xavier had nothing to do with her being in that state. The man's basic concern though not superficial visit should still be able to see her once.

Looking at the man before her, Emily's heart harbored a small glimmer of hope.

-No," Xavier didn't even think about it and flatly denied.

He didn't feel the need to deliberately come to see Emily and he didn't want to have any dealings with that woman, his words had been clear enough.

-I don't mind, it has to be about once," Emily bargained, thinking that the man should come to visit her once.

There was a sense of debt collection in her tone, as if this was what Xavier owed her.

-Why should I come to see you? -Xavier asked the other man coldly, seeing that he would not budge.

His words were clear enough and there was no need for the pair to dwell on them.

-I'm in this state because of you, why don't you come to see me? -Emily justified.

Xavier was suddenly struck dumb and didn't know what to answer; it was true that the other woman was unreasonable and there was no way to make sense of it. Especially a woman like Emily, who was such a troublemaker, was even more annoying.

-Then you will consider that I have come to see you today, is that all right with you, Miss Velazquez? -Xavier said, not wanting to waste too much time with the other man and wanting to leave immediately.

No sooner had he taken a step forward than Emily's merciless shout came from behind him.

-You're a wicked person, I've been with you for four whole years and this is how you treat me?

Xavier felt amused for a moment; was this woman acting in front of him? Inevitably, she was also too carefree.
