James was worried about Elizabeth, because she was alone in the room. He called Jane and asked her to come over. Then he accompanied Xavier to sit in his car for a while. He did not send Xavier back until Jane arrived.
Xavier wasn't in a good state. He couldn't let him drive alone or go home by a taxi.
Although James had agreed to find those people, Xavier was alone and didn't live at home, so he really couldn't feel at ease.
"Have a good rest. Don't think about anything else. You have me by your side. Understand?" After entering Xavier's room, James said truthfully.
Xavier nodded, "Okay, I know." After that, he said apologetically again, "I said that you don't have to send me back. It's very late now. Elizabeth..."
Before he finished his words, James interrupted him, "It's okay. Didn't I ask the nanny to go to the hospital? Don't worry about her. What you have to do now is to take a bath and have a good sleep. After getting up tomorrow, do what you should do."
Xavier sighed, "Jimmy, how can I have the mood to work now? I really... don't want to do anything, and I don't even want to go out."
James exhaled heavily, "Xavier, I understand. If you really don't want to go out, just stay here. Anyway, your gallery has developed along the right lines. You can sleep at home, watch TV, or just paint." No matter what Xavier wanted to do, as long as he could distract his attention, it was good, wasn't it?
"Okay."
"Have a good rest. I'll go back first."
Just before James opened the door, Xavier stopped him, "Jimmy..."
"Huh? What's the matter?"
Xavier smiled awkwardly, "I am just..." Saying this, he paused and wiped his face, "Do you think we can find that group of people?"
Hearing this, James naturally knew what Xavier was worried about. He felt sad and mad, but he smiled gently and nodded, "Xavier, you said that you would believe me, right? You will find them."
"I'm just afraid that they will disappear like before. If we can't find them, I... will go crazy."
If they couldn't find those people, he would live in fear and nervousness forever. Because those photos were like a time bomb. He didn't know when it would explode.
If that was the case, what should he do?
In the past, although he lived in hatred and pain, he got over it. Part of the reason was that he didn't worry about anything. At least, he could look forward to his future.
But what about this time?
At this moment, Xavier was panicky and confused. He was completely at a loss, like a frightened bird.
Looking at Xavier like this, James felt very doleful. His heart ached for Xavier, and he hated the gangsters to the extreme.
If he found those people, he would definitely let them pay the price!
"Xavier, don't worry. I promise that I will absolutely find them this time."
His words set Xavier's mind at ease. Xavier felt a little better and said with a pale face, "Yes! We must find them!" After that, he rushed forward and held James's hand tightly, "Jimmy, if you really find them, what will you do?"
If it was in the past, when Elizabeth cared about Xavier like this, he would definitely get jealous and annoyed. But that day, he would not do those childish things again, because Xavier was his brother.
Moreover, he didn't say tell her about Xavier's condition in detail on the phone, because he was afraid that she would be worried.
"Well, he is much better now."
"That's good." Elizabeth nodded, and then glanced at Jane who was still in the room and said, "Hearing your words, I'm relieved. But, why have you been there for so long?" She was very drowsy, but she was worried about Xavier, and she couldn't rest assured because James had to drive back and forth at such a late night. She wanted to sleep, but she waited for him to come back.
"I drove slowly. Didn't you tell me to slow down?" James chuckled, "How dared I not listen to you? I sat in Xavier's room for a while. Now, can you rest assured? Can you sleep?"
Jane said, "You should sleep now, Young Madam. You were worried just now, and you didn't listen to me when I persuaded you. Now that Young Master is back, you should take a rest. You can't stay up late and should have a good sleep."
"Yeah, I can sleep now." Elizabeth smiled with embarrassment, "Then... Jane, you can go home today. James is here. Otherwise, both of you won't have a good rest."
"But..."
James turned around, "Jane, listen to her. Go home and come here tomorrow. I have something to do tomorrow."
"Allright."
After Jane left, James rolled down the bed and covered Elizabeth with the quilt. Then he bent over and kissed her on the forehead, "Honey, good night."
