“…You’re probably the only person on the planet who would congratulate a divorcee… If I didn’t know you any better, I’d have strangled you by now, you know?”
Chuckling in response, Zayne replied, “To clarify, you’re the only one I’d congratulate over a divorce.”
…What… was he trying to imply? There was no way he would be interested in her, right? He was the son of the Xenos family for heaven’s sake! What’s more, he hated divorcees! Not wanting to give herself hope, Dolly then casually thanked him before starting to move the equipment indoors…
Now in a fairly good mood, Zayne then chuckled before following her in…
Upon arriving at Zivon’s room, they quickly realized that Xavia had fallen asleep on Zivon’s chest.
Frowning slightly, Zayne whispered, “…Let’s let them rest for a bit longer first. They need it.”
Agreeing with him, Dolly then followed Zayne out again…
Now that she had the time to give him a good look, she finally realized that he was still in his pajamas. As it turned out, he had rushed over immediately after learning about Zivon’s fever… So, a guy who liked to fool around like him cared so deeply about his friend, huh…? What a pleasant surprise…
It took her a while, but she eventually asked, “…How much longer before you remove the infusion?”
“…He looks quite bad, so… Probably in about six hours…”
“…Since that’s the case, go get some rest as well. You can treat him again at dawn…”
Despite being submerged in black, herbal water, that only served to make his fair skin stand out even more… And after staring at him for a while, Xavia sighed before muttering, “…Hey, you have a face and body to die for, so please get well soon already so that I can date you…”
Following that, she gently touched his six packs… but before she could retract her hand, she heard him say, “…A bit unethical to be feeling around a patient, don’t you think…?”
Gulping slightly, she quickly moved her hand away before saying, “U-unethical? I don’t know what you’re talking about!”
Smiling weakly in response, Zivon replied, “Look, if you want me to get better quicker, there are certain other things that you could promise me…”
Blushing in response, she averted her gaze before asking, “…D-do elaborate…”
