Chapter 541

Liana’s barrage of questions left Melanie stunned.

Xander could not stand it anymore. “Don’t mess with–“!

Before he could finish his sentence, the smile on Liana’s face disappeared. She looked at Xander dejectedly, “And you say she isn’t your girlfriend. Who are you kidding?”

A vein on Xander’s forehead throbbed.

Melanie had never met someone like Liana before. She opened her mouth but did not know what to say. In the end, she put the things aside and introduced herself. “Hello, I’m Xander’s friend. I heard that you got hurt, so I brought you some supplements. I hope you can get well soon.”

Liana paused at her formal words. After a moment of silence, she nodded. “Thank you, but I’m perfectly fine.”

Liana’s head was wrapped in gauze and there was a metal rod secured to her collarbone. Her arms and legs were all covered in plaster. As far as Melanie could see, she was far from “fine”, but it was not her place to ask any further.

She could only nod hesitantly. “A bit more rest never hurts.”

Liana burst out laughing. “I’m a professional racer. I’m used to getting injured. This is nothing, really.’

Next to her, Yury added, “Yes, she’s very sturdy.”

“That’s not a compliment when you put it that way!” Liana interrupted him without any hesitation

The two of them started to bicker with each other, even switching languages every so often.

“Ignore them. This is their way of expressing their love,” Xander said helplessly.

Melanie looked at him. “You seem to be close with your

sister.”

Xander usually got along with Oliver and the others, but he was even more relaxed in front of

Liana.

Xander nodded. “We grew up together.”

Just then, Liana said excitedly, “Melanie, give me your contact! If Xander ever dares to bully you, you can come straight to me. I’ll teach him a lesson.”

She was very enthusiastic, barely giving Melanie a chance to say no.

Xander had to pitch in. “Go on, just exchange your contacts.”

Just as the four of them were chatting happily, the door to the ward suddenly swung open again.

A young man whose features resembled Xander’s and Liana’s stood in the doorway. Melanie took a moment to recover, then remembered that the man was Xander’s half-brother, Xavier. While Xavier was unmistakably their brother, the upturned corners of his eyes made him look

a little more sinister and conniving.

The smile on Liana’s face when she was talking to Melanie immediately faded. She asked expressionlessly, “Why are you here again?”

Xavier was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He openly stared at Xander and snorted in contempt before turning to Liana again with a phony half-smile. “Dad heard that you got into a car accident, Liana. He was very worried about you, so he asked me to take care of you.”

Liana scoffed. “And you immediately came running? Look at you, Daddy’s golden boy.”

“What’s wrong with being a filial son? I’d rather be obedient than ungrateful.” Xavier’s sly appearance exacerbated his somewhat sarcastic tone, making it sound like he was mocking Xander.

Liana frowned. “Then please go back and tell him that my real brother will take care of me. He doesn’t have to assign any random schmuck to me.’

Xavier stiffened slightly, while Liana turned to Yury. “See him out for me.”
