Chapter 1685 No backing out at this point.
Xante sighed helplessly and said, "Please don't trouble yourself over it, Mister Maxwell. It's more important for you to prioritize recovery, and | shouldn't even be here to bother you in the first place." Maxwell shook his head and smiled. "Nonsense. You have no idea how much better | feel to know Sunny has a girlfriend.” Xante bowed a little and said, "I'll be leaving now, but I'll cback another day to visit you." After that, she turned and walked out of the room.
Seeing that, Sunny quickly said to Maxwell, "Dad, I'm going to see her off." "Sure, go ahead," said Maxwell with a nod and a smile.
"Are you going to be okay?" asked Sunny worriedly.
Maxwell knew what Sunny was referring to, so he nodded and said, "Yeah. | promise | won't do anything stupid again." Relieved, Sunny quickly ran out of the ward.
Sunny managed to catch up to Xante in the hospital corridor. He grabbed her arm and said, "Xante, why are you leaving so quickly? Why not stay for a little while longer since you're here?" "How dare you still askto stay when | haven't even made you suffer for lying to me?!" Sunny looked down, laughed awkwardly, and twiddled his fingers. "I thought | already explained why | lied to you, Xante. Don't you think you should forgivesince I did it out of love?" Xante looked coldly at him. "No! Lying is lying. You ih use love as an excuse." Sunny pouted. "But there are different kinds of lies... Please don't be angry anymore. | promise | won't lie to you about something like this again." Xante scoffed. "Hmph! So that means you'll lie toabout something else?" "Yeah... | mean what if | want to prepare a surprise for you after we get married? Of course | need to lie to you then, right? | mean, white lies can make our relationship better at times." Xante was first taken aback, but she then replied with disgust, "I haven't even agreed to marry you, and you're already thinking about our married life? Mister Sunny, you really have your head up in the clouds!" Sunny lifted his chin. "To be honest, I've even thought about what we should nour two kids!" Xante narrowed her eyes. "Don't you have anything else in that brain of yours?' "I do! I'm also working very hard now so that | can give you a good life.
Other than that, I'm thinking about how to get you to agree to marry me." Xante massaged her temple. "That's enough! stop wasting your there. You should go back to look after your father. It's important to be with him at all times since there's no telling if he'll try to take his life again." Sunny pouted. "You're really not going to stay? | feel pretty bored here. And Dad kept on wantingto tell him everything about Corinne. | told him so much that | feel like my mouth is about to fall off." Xante looked at him sharply. "Your dad knows Corinne is his long-lost daughter?" Sunny nodded. "Yeah! Corinne even cjust now and fed him ssoup. That's why he's much more stable now. It's all thanks to her!" Xante frowned, remembering that she saw Sophia in the elevator minutes ago.
