Chapter 120
When they arrived at the Gurray residence, Samantha let Jasper examine Xyla.
Xyla looked pale and unwell. Occasionally, she even felt like vomiting.
Overall, she felt exhausted.
Jasper asked about Xyla’s condition. Suddenly, he asked, “When was the last time you had sex?”
Xyla blushed and replied, “Why did you ask?”
Jasper smiled playfully. “It’s because you’re probably pregnant.”
Xyla’s eyes widened immediately. “How is that possible?”
î
Jasper glanced at her and said, “What? Are you doubting my medical skills? You can go to the hospital for a check–up to see if I’m right
Samantha felt troubled and massaged the spot between her eyebrows. Then, she addressed Jasper, “Dr. Fleming, please head outside for a moment. I want to talk to Xyla.”
“Okay.” Holding his medical kit, Jasper stood up. “Just call me if you need anything. I’ll head outside.”
Meanwhile, Xyla sat on the couch inside the room. Lowering her head, she looked at her belly in disbelief.
She thought, “Is there another living being inside my flat belly? Am I really going to be a mother? This is so amazing… and so confusing. Do I really want to keep this child?”
Samantha looked at Xyla. “Tell me, what happened that night? Is Xavion the father?”
An embarrassed Xyla bit her lip. “Yes, he is. It was my first time that night.
Feeling troubled, Samantha looked at her and cried, “What the heck was both of you thinking? It’s fine if you two fool around, but can’t you use protection?”
“…” Xyla felt aggrieved. “I don’t know what happened that night. I blacked out after drinking and woke up in bed with him. I dared not contact him after that.”
Samantha was speechless and thought, “I can’t believe it…
She said, “Didn’t you make him take responsibility for what he’s done?”
“Both of us consented to it. How could I make him take responsibility for what he’s done?” Xyla felt wronged and pursed her lips
In fact, she wanted Xavion to take responsibility, but she could not bring herself to talk about it
Samantha patted the couch and spoke. “In that case, I’ll make him take responsibility
After that. Samantha picked up her phone and acted like she was about to call Xavion
Xyla immediately snatched her phone away.
“No! Don’t call him!”
“Huh?” Samantha was puzzled.

Xyla pursed her lips and said. “If he wanted to take responsibility, he would have taken the initiative to contact me. Since he didn’t bring up this issue, it means he doesn’t want to take responsibility at all…
As she spoke, Xyla chuckled in a self–deprecating manner. “It makes sense, too. He’s had many girlfriends in the past, and [ can’t even keep count of them. Normally, women like me aren’t his type, so how could he be interested in me?”
Samantha frowned instinctively after listening to Xyla. “Xyla, don’t say that. You aren’t undesirable.”
“What does it matter? At any rate, he doesn’t love me. If someone I like doesn’t love me, then I’m destined to fail.”
Samantha threw a pillow at Xyla and cried, “Xyla, can you please perk up? He’s just a man! Men are like clothes, and you can change them anytime! You can wear a dress today, a pair of pants tomorrow, and a down jacket the day after tomorrow. In fact, you can wear any thing you like! Do you have to feel sorry for yourself because of a man?”
Francis, who was about to enter the room with a plate of fruits, overheard Samantha’s words.
Francis looked at the fruits, which he had cut, in his hands
Since Samantha saw him as a piece of clothing, Francis decided not to give her any fruits.
He thought, “Ill eat them myself!”
Thus, Francis turned around and left.
Samantha, who was comforting Her friend, Xyla in the room, has no idea that Francis had taken her words to heart.
At the same time, Xyla pursed her lips and looked at Samantha sadly.
“Then, why did you settle for someone like Francis?”
Samantha was stunned by the question and felt guilty.
“That’s because I don’t want to change my clothes. He’s good enough for me.”
Xyla replied, I’m just like you. I only need one piece of clothing. Ever since I was a child, I have always loved him and him
alone.”
Her voice was very low and deep, but Samantha could sense Xylas affection for Xavion. It expressed her feelings of love and helplessness.
Samantha frowned and asked, “If you’ve always loved him, why didn’t you tell him?”
Xyla lowered her head and remained silent for a while before speaking slowly. “He’s always changing girlfriends. Whenever I wanted to tell him, he had a new girlfriend. Over time, I decided not to say a word. I thought there was still time, but now he’s become a chairman. Meanwhile, I’m still a useless mooch… He’s way out of my league, and I don’t feel like telling him
anymore.”
Xyla paused and then spoke in an extremely inferior manner. “Perhaps it’s because of inferiority
Samantha felt very bad for Xyla
Back then, Xyla was wild and unrestrained.
Now, she seemed to be enveloped by immense sadness.
Samantha did not want to see Xyla like this, so she brought up a shocking idea.
“If you think he’s way out of your league, Il dismiss him from his role as a chairman.”

Chapter 120
All of a sudden, Xyla lifted her head and looked at Samantha with widened eyes.
She said inwardly. “Samantha is being simple and crude!”
Xyla said. “Samantha, this isn’t a good idea”
“What? Do you feel bad for him?”
“No… Xyla denied hastily.
Samantha raised an eyebrow.

“Well, I’ll ask him if he wants to be with you and raise this child together. If he’s willing to do so, he can keep his position as a chairman. If he isn’t, I’ll dismiss him at once and make him a nobody. Of course, you don’t have to worry about being in an unhappy relationship if you two stay with each other. If he treats you badly, just tell me, and I’ll kick him out of the Johansson residence. Everything in the family will be given to you and your baby.”
Xyla stared at Samantha for a long time. Suddenly, she hugged the latter and began to cry loudly.
As such, Samantha could only listen quietly while her friend wailed pitifully. She occasionally patted Xyla’s back and comforted her.
After crying for about ten minutes, Xyla finally calmed down. Her eyes were already swollen, and she even burped.
“Samantha, you’re so kind to me. In this lifetime, you’re my best friend! No matter what you do, I’ll always support you!”
Samantha caressed Xyla’s head lovingly and said, “Silly girl! Of course, I’m going to be kind to you!”
Xyla responded aggrievedly, “But, Xavion is your cousin… At the end of the day, I’m just an outsider.
Samantha patted Xyla’s head.
“Your baby is like a nephew or niece to me. Therefore, why would I want a cousin like him? He can go take a hike. Pifi.”
Xyla was so amused by Samantha that she burst out laughing.
