Chapter 1385
Chapter 1385 Annoyed
“Lana, can you drop by the hotel? I’d like to ask a favor.”
“Oh, you need me there right away? Okay, I’ll head over now. Calm down, calm down. I’m going now,”
replied Lana as she tilted her head to keep her phone between her ear and her shoulder. While doing
that, she reached for her purse and coat.
“Mom, Dad. There is an urgent matter I have to attend to, so I won’t be staying here tonight.” She
grabbed her purse and shoved her arm into her coat while gesturing at her phone. After shouting that
to her parents, she fled the ce as though there was no tomorrow.
“Lana, remember toe home tomorrow. We have a blind date set up for you,” shouted Lana’s
mother. Her words made it into the phone and Xavier couldn’t help snickering when he overheard that.
“Was that a snicker? What the hell is so funny about that?” Lana was so annoyed that she mmed
the door to her car shut before howling into the phone a little.

“Awh, are you annoyed?” asked Xavier. He was deliberately pushing Lana’s buttons, and she was so
annoyed that she rolled her eyes at him.
“Quit yapping and tell me what you want.” Earlier, she was thankful to the guy for calling at the right
time and rescuing her from her parents. That appreciation dissipated after she heard how amused he
was at her horrible situation.
Xavier behaved more professionally once he heard that. “Let’s talk in person. It’ll be difficult to exin
the situation over the phone.”
“Okay, I’ll be there soon.” replied Lana. She hung up, put her phone away, then started driving.
The second she entered the lobby, she saw Xavier sitting on the couch and ying on his phone. A
mischievous glint shed past her eyes and a devious idea crawled into her mind. She circled around
to his back…
“Eric!”
“What the f*ck? Damn, you scared me,” yelped Xavier. He was so surprised that he cussed in Chanaea
and dropped his phone.
Huh… I didn’t know that he was such a scaredy-cat. He even dropped his phone! Now that I think
about it, Eric sometimes acts as though he were a kid who was caught doing something bad. In fact,
he’s fumbling right now.
“Oops. Sorry, Eric. I was just angry about you snickering at my misfortune earlier, so I thought I’d pull a
small prank on you. I didn’t realize you are such a scaredy-cat.”
Just apologize nicely, will ya? Why did you have to include thatst sentence and call me a coward?
Lana worried that Xavier would get angry, so she changed the topic and asked, “Why were you looking
for me, anyway?”
“Changing the topic, are we?” He red at Lana a little before asking, “You know your way around the
new medical school, right?”
“Yes, I do. Why are you asking that?”
“I want to work as a bodyguard in that ce. Can you help me out?”
Curious, Lana asked, “Why would you want to be a bodyguard there? Do you already know what you’re
looking for?”
Xavier shook his head. “No, not yet. I just think my investigation would go much smoother if I work
there and build a rapport with the others.”
Lana nodded. The prince made an announcement that he had hired a foreigner to teach the citizens on
how to be a medical practitioner. Anyone who was willing to learn could enroll because the royal family
would pay for everything. As a result, many had already applied for a spot there.
The countrycked medical practitioners, so royalties and descendants of noble families were to learn
how to be a doctor. That idea was etched into their brains ever since they were a kid.
It was a rather smart move to go work as a bodyguard there.
“I’ll make some calls and update you on the matter tomorrow,” replied Lana.
I knew it. She can help me get in! Xavier’s lips curved into a smile. “Thanks, Lana.”
At the same time, in Paelsford Manor.
“San, what did that man from yesterday want from you?”
After having a meal together, the family gathered around. Mrs. Wilhelm suddenly remembered the
incident that happened at the Celestial Lake.
“He came to give me an ATM card,” replied Arielle while munching on some apple.
