    Chapter 294 Xavier’s Rebirth


    +5 Pearls


    The medical team nearby were deeply perplexed this time. Was this individual behaving irrationally?


    Did he have a penchant for self–inflicted ps?


    Experienced doctors, wary of potentialplications, swiftly sought out the hospital’s director. Upon


    hearing it involved a young lieutenant, the director hurried over without a word.


    True to the doctors‘ description, there sat a lieutenant in camouge attire on a bench, adorned with


    medals, his hair dishevelled, his face marked with irritation and a swollen cheek. Thankfully, he


    seemed moreposed now, refraining from further self–inflicted ps.


    Having encountered the Buts on numerous asions, the director promptly identified the


    dishevelled man before him as George. The youngdy who had caused such concern for George


    must be the heiress taken under the Buts‘ wing.


    The director instructed a nearby doctor, “Quickly contact the Buts. Their hospital relied on


    annual support from them; they


    Couldn’t afford to overlook any requests.


    “Understood, Director.”


    After rying his instructions, the doctor approached Xavier with trepidation, cautiously briefing him


    on the situation concerning the Buts‘ Master.


    “Mr. But, please don’t worry too much. Our hospital’s attending physician has updated you on


    your sister’s condition. It’s only a minor injury, nothing serious. She copsed from exhaustion, but


    there’s no cause for rm. She should be discharged tomorrow.”


    His gaze turned vacant.


    My sister…


    Suddenly, he snapped his head up, his crimson eyes locking onto the hospital director with a mix of


    ineffable sorrow and hopelessness. A hint of wariness was discernible, like a lost child seeking his


    way home.


    “Where is my sister?”


    The hospital director was momentarily taken aback by his question. “Eh? Isn’t she inside


    “She’s not! She’s unworthy!” Xavier erupted in agitation, then swiftly regained hisposure. “She’s


    not my sister…

    Lowering his head like a stubborn child, he reiterated his point, trying to convince everyone, “Milly is


    my only sister. But it seems I’ve lost her….


    His voice emerged, rich and resonant, enveloped in an air of mystery that left the hospital director


    struggling to grasp the full import of his words. Fragments of phrases floated by, hints of a profound


    loss permeating his speech.


    With a determined air, the director sought rity, Lost, Mr. But? Pray tell, what is it that you


    have lost? Should you need aid, we shall endeavour to find it together.”


    “A search?” The word echoed, a flicker of hope kindling within Xavier’s eyes. His previously

    In his haste, he nearly stumbled, driven by an urgent need. Milly’s kindness and gentle spirit


    spurred him. on; she must be waiting, anxious as nightfall approached. He could not bear the


    thought of her fear.


    As he pressed forward, vivid memories cascaded through his mind. He felt a deep conviction that


    this was not mere fantasy; he had indeed been granted another chance. Two years had passed


    since Milly’s tragic departure, marked by his own descent into grief and eventual demise at her


    graveside.


    In his final moments, he had clung to the hope that death might reunite them.


    Yet, to his astonishment, he awakened in a hospital, staring at his youthful reflection.


    Confusion mingled with awe. Was this some final dream before death? It all felt so achingly real. If it


    were but a dream, could he truly find Milly once more?


    Driven by this thought, he urgently sought someone. Memories surged back, and he was abruptly


    brought to his feet.


    Not long ago, he had faced an impossible choice between saving Stephanie and Milly. He had left


    Milly, wounded and alone in the mountains, even going so far as to break her fingers in a moment


    of cruelty.


    The concept of rebirth, once a distant thought, now filled him with dread. He fervently wished it all to


    be a nightmare. In his uncertainty, he raised his hand and struck his own face, feeling the sting


    spread across his cheek. The pain confirmed his reality.


    He had been reborn. Yet, even in this new life, he feared he was repeating his past mistakes,


    abandoning Milly once more.


    A torrent of despair overwhelmed him, suffusing his very essence. Milly was lost to him once again.


    This day, meant to be one of joy, marked Milly’s first day at school. Jordan had meticulously cleared


    his schedule, intending to fetch her himself. Yet his ns were abruptly thwarted by a call from the


    hospital, bearing grievous news of his sister’s injury and admission.


    My sister? Are they talking about Milly?


    Scarcely had he ended the call with the hospital when another call came, this time from Milly’s


    counsellor, who disclosed that Milly and Stephanie had vanished during a field trip. Jordan’s heart


    quickened, and without dy, he sped to the hospital.


    On arrival, he encountered Xavier, mud–streaked and bedraggled, emerging from the building.


    “Xavier, where is Milly?” Jordan demanded, halting him in his tracks.


    Xavier, as if in a daze, ignored the query and continued walking. A chill of foreboding crept over


    Jordan, and he grasped Xavier’s arm, seeking answers with growing urgency. “Xavier, where is


    Milly?”


    Xavier struggled to free himself, his voice a broken record of resolve, “I must find Milly, I must find


    Milly, I must find Milly…


    Jordan’s eyes narrowed, a sense of dread swelling within him as he spoke, his voice like the rumble


    of distant thunder: “What do you mean? If Milly is not here, then who have you brought back?


    Stephanie?

    His words struck Xavier like a de, rendering him still. Slowly, Xavier lifted his gaze, rity


    seeping back into his eyes upon recognizing Jordan. Overwhelmed, he reached out for sce,


    “Jordan… what should we do? Milly is hurt, she’s bleeding. I left her on the mountain, she…


    The sentence was cut short by a resonating bang.


    Jordan could not endure the words any longer. His heart splintered into shards, rage surging within


    him. With a fierce cry, he struck Xavier’s face. “You coward, how could you! How could you!”
