Chapter 251
Julian Parks used to support Annalise Barton’s treatment of Sybil Xander’s brother. After all, the two
families had a good rtionship. However, now that Annalise was pregnant, he could not bear to let her
tire herself out. He did not know if he was hallucinating, but Annalise’s face was no longer as rosy as
before. It was a little pale, and she seemed tired. “What are you looking at?” Annalise asked with a
smile when she saw Julian staring at her. Julian took Annalise’s hand and held it in his palm. He
frowned slightly. “Sybil’s brother’s illness has been going on for a long time. It doesn’t matter if you take
a look or not. I don’t want you to be so tired.” “It’s fine. I’m not experiencing any symptoms now. I’ll deal
with whatever I can. I might not be able to do anything once I start to feel ufortable,” Annalise said
with a smile.
Actually, you don’t have to work so hard…” Annalise shook her head. “No, I’m not tired. On the
contrary, I feel very fulfilled. Every time I treat a patient, I umte new experience.” Julian reached
out and patted Annalise’s head. How could there be such a person in this world who was so likable?
Her every expression and word moved him. There were so many big shots who doted on her, like her
mentors. She was capable and wealthy but had not forgotten her roots or beginnings. She still
dedicated herself to treating patients even now.
They arrived at the Xander’s residence. Sybil was already waiting at the door. Sybil ran over with a
smile when she saw their car. “You’re here?” Sybil came over and held Annalise’s hand. She said, “My
brother has been sick for a long time, so his temper is a little strange. Don’t take it to heart if he sounds
nasty sometimes.” “Don’t worry, I’m a doctor. I understand patients,” Annalise said. “Yes, my brother…
He is quite pitiful.” Sybil could not hide the pity she felt at the mention of her brother. He had been
bedridden for 20 years.
His face was as pale as a ghost. If not for the fact that the servants took good care of him and washed
him often, he would probably have been in an even worse condition. Sybil led Annalise through the
courtyard of the residence. Then they saw Nancy Zeller walk toward them, along with Yechiel Xander,
Sybil’s eldest brother. Surprised to see Annalise, Nancy greeted her politely, “Annalise, what a
coincidence!” “Hello,” Annalise greeted. Nancy smiled again and said, “You guys can continue. I’m
returning to the Zeller’s residence.” She hade to ask her father for the shops early in the morning.
Initially, her father did not agree to add new shops, but he could not resist her acting pitifully.
She said that while she lived with the Zeller family, her stepfather didn’t dote on her, and her mother
didn’t love her. If she hadn’t donated her bone marrow to her second uncle when she was young, her
body wouldn’t have been so weak. And she wouldn’t only have had limited sess in her twenties,
ming it on her health. She added that her second uncle was highly talented and managed Xander
Group well. Later on, when Second Uncle fell sick, it was also because his father found a bone marrow
that matched his that he gave up the position of president.
She knew that every time she wanted her father to do something, she just had to pretend to be pitiful
and say that her body was weak from donating her bone marrow back then. It didn’t matter if he did not
agree at first because he would after. When she saw Annalise at the Xander’s residence, she wanted
to stay and see what they would do. However, because the Zeller family had a servantmit for long.
Cide, she could not stay She was afraid of Julian, worried that he would notice something. Therefore,
she left decisively. Anyway, she still had ample time to y with them. Sybil led Annalise to where her
brother was. The Xander’s residence was a traditional-styled manor. There were pavilions, artificial
mountains,kes, and antiques. Sybil’s brother lived alone in a small house in a small courtyard. The
courtyard was filled with orchids.
The weather was cold, and the servants were building a hot shed. They carefully moved the orchids
into the hot shed. “Brother, are you feeling better today?” Sybil brought Annalise and Julian into the
room. “Mm,” her brother replied slowly as hey on the bed. “Brother, I brought a friend to visit you,”
Sybil said. “There’s no need.” Her brother’s tone was very distant and clearly unweing. “Brother,
my friend is a doctor. Her mentor is Master Quigley and has great medical skills.” “I said no need!” he
said stubbornly. “Brother, you must get better to uncover the truth of what happened back then, right?”
Sybil sighed.
“Get out! Get out, all of you!” He suddenly flew into a rage. Just a moment ago, he looked lifeless but
could converse with Sybil properly. Then he blew up all of a sudden. Brother, please don’t be like this.”
Sybil was anxious and heartbroken. “Get out!” He got up and threw a pillow at her. Sybil quickly caught
the pillow and sighed. Annalise could tell that Sybil’s brother must have had a traumatic experience
back then. That was why he flew into a rage when it was mentioned. She didn’t think it was a good time
to continue. She said to Sybil, “Sybil, let’se back another day.” Or they could let Sybil’s brother
calm down. and they coulde back in the afternoon.
“Wait a minute!” he suddenly said. Everyone froze. The servants immediately rushed in and pulled the
curtains wide apart. Previously, the curtains were closed on one side. The lighting in the room was dim,
and it felt like dusk. Now that the curtains were drawn, the room became instantly brighter. Annalise
could see his face clearly. It was very pale. It was the kind of paleness that meant he had not basked in
the sun for a long time. His sickly face looked like it was drained of colors. However, he was really
good-looking and looked young for his age.
ording to Sybil, he was almost 50 years. old, but he looked less than 40. He had good facial
features and was very handsome. He was very delicate, but he did not look feminine at all. Instead, he
exuded a heroic aura. While Annalise was sizing him up, his eyes were also staring at Annalise. The
more he observed her, the more his frown deepened. Annalise retracted her gaze ufortably. Being
stared at like this made her feel at a loss. Julian also felt that his gaze was somewhat abnormal. He
immediately stood between them.
“You… What’s your name?” Sybil’s brother asked. He tried to calm himself. But his trembling voice
betrayed him. “Heather Barton, is she your daughter?” he thought. “If not, why does she look so much
like you?” “If she’s your daughter, then where are you?” “And when was she born?” He had too manyThis is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
unanswered questions that he could only keep to himself. “Brother, what’s wrong? She’s my friend,
Annalise Barton.” Sybil was a little frightened by her brother’s behavior. “Annalise Barton?” Her
surname was Barton. Was she really Heather Barton’s daughter?
Why did she adopt her mother’s surname? Or could it be that the person Heather Barton loved deeply
back then also had the same surname? Feeling terrible, he asked again, “Is Heather Baron your
mother?” Annalise was stunned. Julian looked at him in surprise. He actually knew Annalise’s mother?
Annalise looked at Sybil’s brother. “You know my mother?” she asked excitedly. So, her mother also
lived in Jadeborough back then? Was it possible that her father was also from Jadeborough? Although
she guessed that she and her mother had been abandoned, she still wanted to find the man who was
her biological father.
