“Xav, I want a loyal partner just as much as you do. I can’t even wait to spoil you to bits, yet here you are, accusing me of trampling over your feelings.”
Just as Xavia was about to retort, he kissed her once more… and when she was left speechless, he took the chance to declare, “Look, if I truly slept with her, then I’m willing to chop my dick off and have it fed to the dogs…!”
Naturally, this left Xavia momentarily stunned. With how serious his gaze was, it didn’t seem like he was lying…
“…You say that, but how are you going to explain that lipstick mark? And the fact that you brought her to that hotel-”
“She has lung cancer.”
…Wait, what?! Raising a slight brow, Xavia replied, “But… she’s so young! And she seems so healthy too! You’re not pulling my leg, right?”
Upon hearing that, Zivon’s gaze fell a little. Even he didn’t want to accept that… In the end, he was prompted to explain, “…Look, after I rejected her ten years ago, she went overseas alone and never came back… During her absence, I caught wind that she had died, which was why I gave up on looking for her for so long… However, on the night we were on that mountain, she suddenly called me to say goodbye.”
“It was then when I realized that she was still alive, but I also learned the disheartening fact that she apparently had only six months left to live due to her lung cancer. I eventually managed to track her down, and from that point on, I got busy trying to get a good doctor for her… alas, they all said the same thing. That she had stage four cancer, and had only half a year to live at most…”
