The two rhetorical questions in quick succession which ended in a voice that was trailing upwards came with an invisible compelling force and aura.
Xavia was embarrassed. She thought that it was Mark who saved her, so she thought that the person taking care of her would also be Mark. Of course she was disappointed.
Thinking about it now, the person who saved her was Stefan.
She curled her lips and said, “No, no. I was just a little surprised.”
Zivon naturally knew that she was not telling the truth, but he was too lazy to be bothered with her, so he didn’t continue questioning her. “How would you like me to settle your foster mother and Luke Wilson?”
“Huh?” Xavia looked at him in surprise.
Why did his tone sound as though he was helping and protecting her? Aside from Mark, no one else had ever said that they would help her out.
She felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart as she spoke up, “You don’t need to deal with my foster mother. I will look for her and deal with her afterwards. However, can you make Luke Wilson accept legal sanctions? I’m worried that he will continue doing harm to other girls in future.”
Xavia asked her question cautiously because she was afraid that Zivon would not be willing to help her. After all, Luke had a powerful family and business in S City. He also had very powerful connections and no one could do anything to him at all.
However, for Zivon, there was no one that he could not deal with.
He replied coldly and solemnly, “I can.”
Xavia was overjoyed. “Thank you. Sure enough, in this society, we can only use violence to deal with violence and power to suppress power.” If the victims were insignificant and transparent, they would have nowhere to complain, and they could only be bullied.
Zivon seemed to understand the grievances from her words and the helplessness that she must have felt. He raised the corners of his mouth as he said, “You can call me when you encounter any trouble in future. You should also call for help immediately. Don’t be so stupid anymore.”
Xavia felt a tremor in her heart.
When was she being stupid? The more important thing was that she could not sense any real sense of truly domineering attitude. On the contrary, it seemed as though he was genuinely showing her concern. Xavia took a deep breath as the uneasiness and warm feeling in her heart intensified.
What was she thinking? He was her elder sister’s fiancé. So he must be doing this and taking care of her on her elder sister and Maison’s account.
“By the way, where is my elder sister? How is she? Where is she feeling unwell?”
Zivon glanced at her coldly. “You should be worrying about yourself instead of worrying about others.”
As soon as his voice fell, Nathan brought the doctor with him to the door of the ward. “Young master, I received the antidote. The doctor will treat Miss Lockhart.”
