FreeNovelChapter 1797 After a brief moment of silence, Melinda finally said, "I saw Lucas Rivera when | was talking with Brian outside.” Emily's pupils immediately shrank, and she grabbed Melinda's hand manically. "What's he doing here? Is he sick?" "He's fine. He's not sick at all. Emily, calm down. You're still on your IV drip. I'll tell you everything | know," comforted Melinda.
How could Emily not panic when it was her son they were talking about? She forced herself to calm down and said, "I'm listening." Melinda looked at her to make sure she had calmed down before saying, "I didn't know he was the eldest grandson of the Rivera family until Brian told me. He looked into why your son chere and found out your ex- husband was staying in this hospital too. Your son cto visit him." "Oh... | see." Emily's face was tense.
Melinda looked at her carefully. "Is there anything else you want to ask?" Emily shook her head. Her expression was so impassive that Melinda could not tell what she was thinking about.
"I'm just glad my son is doing okay," said Emily.
Melinda sighed and asked, "Do you wantto help you visit your ex- husband?" Emily smiled coldly. "No, that won't be necessary. He has nothing to do withanymore. Melinda, can you please get Brian to keep my stay here a secret? Lucas is a cautious boy, and he might find out I'm staying here too.

| really don’t want to meet any of the Riveras..." Melinda nodded. "Sure. Don’t worry, Emily. I've — Brian to handle it." "Thanks," replied Emily with a bitter smile.
Melinda looked at her tenderly. "There's no need to thank me. We're best friends after all. By the way, should | call Corinne and ask her to visit you? This can be a good opportunity for you two to reunite." Emily waved. "No. | don’t want her to seelike this." Melinda sighed. "Emily, don't you find this tiring?" Emily looked down.
Yes, she was tired. Even though she had physically escaped from the Rivera family, she felt like she was still with them every waking day. She had too many worries.
After a long silence, Emily suddenly said, "Which floor and room is Maxwell staying in?" Melinda was taken aback. She thought Emily had changed her mind about visiting Maxwell.
"He's staying on the sfloor as you in Room 608." Emily nodded. "Can you please get Brian to moveinto another room? | want to be as far away as | can be from Room 608." "Okay..." replied Melinda helplessly.
Meanwhile, Lucas was still in Room 608 when Xante and Sunny arrived.
However, Lucas said he was going back to the company as soon as he saw them there. Thus, only Xante and Sunny were left in the room with Maxwell. Xante had never known how to deal with people who were a generation older than her.
Firstly, she did not have parents.

Secondly, she had never been in a relationship long enough to warrant a meeting with her partner's parents.
Thus, she was visibly nervous about meeting Maxwell.
"Dad, we're here to visit you! She insisted on taking the long way to buy you all these supplements! Isn't she the best girlfriend in the world?" said Sunny happily. Xante was speechless.
Thank you, Xante," replied Maxwell with a smile.
