Chapter 1082
Mr. Mayweather turned his head and asked with a slightly puzzled expression,” May I know…” Xyla
faltered. “He is… an investor of our crew. He must’ve come to pay me a visit.”
Everything clicked for Mr. Mayweather in an instant.
Yorrick nodded politely toward Mr. Mayweather. “Mr. Mayweather, it’s my honor to finally meet you.”
Mr. Mayweather smiled politely and scrutinized him from head to toe. “You’re not from around here,
aren’t you? I haven’t seen you in showbiz before this.”
Yorrick grinned. “Yes, I’m indeed not a local.”
Xyla was worried that Yorrick would be exposed and quickly suggested, “Dad, don’t you still have work to
do? There’s no need for you to stay here with me as I have Mindy by my side. So go home first, and tell
Mom I’m fine. I’ll be discharged after a few days’ rest.”
Mr. Mayweather wanted to say something, but his daughter kept trying to drive him away, so what else
could he say? He was already relieved after verifying that his daughter was safe and sound.

in two days.” Upon saying that, Mr. Mayweather also bid Yorrick goodbye and then left the ward.
After her father left, Xyla leaned back on the head of the bed. “Mr. Hathaway, call me beforehand and
give me a heads-up before you come next time.”
Yorrick squinted slightly. “What’s wrong? Are you afraid that your father will find out about our
relationship?
“Of course! What if my father misunderstands us?” Yorrick crossed his arms and leaned against the wall,
staring at her for a moment.
Xyla felt puzzled. “Why are you staring at me like that?”
He laughed. “You’re the first woman that I know of who doesn’t want to have anything to do with me.”
Xyla flipped her long hair backward and chuckled. “Are you trying to tell me that you’re usually a man
that sells like hotcakes? But even if you are, I don’t care about that.” Yorrick walked to the bedside,
leaned over, and propped his hands against the mattress next to Xyla’s arm.
Xyla ducked back subconsciously. “What are you doing?” “I—” Yorrick was about to say something when
Louis and Ryleigh appeared at the door.
Ryleigh was shocked. “Huh?”
Xyla lifted her hand and pushed Yorrick away, while Yorrick turned his head toward the door and
happened to exchange gazes with Louis.
“What are you doing here?” Xyla was flustered.
“I heard that you were injured, so I came to see you, are you guys…” Ryleigh took a look at Louis and
pointed to Xyla and Yorrick.
“Could this man be Xyla’s new boyfriend?’
Ryleigh and Xyla did not know Yorrick’s true identity, but Louis knew. He narrowed his eyes slightly. “Why
is
the heir of the Hathaways here?”
“Heir of the Hathways?” Xyla laughed.” What kind of heir? We aren’t filming here.

If he’s some heir, then am I the Queen?”
Yorrick finger-combed his hair backward and laughed. “My girlfriend got injured and was hospitalized
because of that, so it’s not surprising that I’m here.”
Louis frowned.
The atmosphere in the ward became a little strange
Xyla was the first to speak. “Ryleigh will stay with me. You two, get out of the room.” There was a
moment of awkward silence. Louis took a glance at Yorrick. “Mr. Hathaway, let’s grab some fresh air
outside.”
Yorrick and Louis left the ward, and Ryleigh walked over in confusion. “What are you planning to achieve
by driving both of them out?”
“Because as a patient, I don’t want to give you the opportunity to flood my room with affection.”
Ryleigh whispered, “Don’t you have a boyfriend now?”
Xyla turned her face away and looked out the window. “He’s not my boyfriend. At least not the boyfriend
that you have in mind.”
Ryleigh sat in a chair. Ever since Xyla lent her a helping hand back then, she no longer hated Xyla so
much anymore. Thus, she thought about the help she had received from her and decided to come to visit
her with Louis after learning about her injury.
Meanwhile, outside the ward, in the corridor…
