Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband-Chapter 867: Say It, Brother~
Hayden Crawford’s health was deteriorating, with heart failure and physical exhaustion, he was no longer the young and strong man he once was.
Justin Xavier lacked nothing but money, so he procured some rare Western medicines to prolong his life.
However, Hayden had developed antibodies against these medicines, and their effects were weakening.
Justin removed his white gloves from his hands, "Hayden, your brother was truly an extraordinary person. I gave the potent medicine he used for your treatment to professors abroad for analysis, but unfortunately, none could decipher his final medical equation."
"Now, your brother is gone. Before he passed, he defied fate, forcibly turning himself into a blood of purity, then drew the Sky Sword to help Serena Sterling revive Alani. He did everything for you, dying as his heart’s arteries all severed."
"As a once-in-a-lifetime miracle doctor, he developed the ultimate equation for treating heart failure before his death. Sadly, that equation disappeared with him, and I can’t find a way to save you."
As he spoke, Justin took out a medical manual, flipping it open. Inside were Zane Crawford’s elegant notes; this was Zane Crawford’s medical journal.
It recorded all his life’s medical research, big and small, left neatly on the desk in his room when he collapsed amid those longing red beans.
On the last page of the medical journal was his ultimate equation for the yet-unsolved heart failure in the world, but unfortunately, the equation had not been clinically tested before Zane departed prematurely.
His talent and achievements in medicine were unmatched, and now no one can unravel his ultimate equation.
Zane Crawford’s life was a poem, traversing places others could never reach, born perfect, living for the ultimate, what resplendent brilliance he had.
Hayden Crawford already knew his brother Zane was gone. When Zane gave him a stab at the ancestral temple, he already knew what he wanted to do.
A reddish hue gradually seeped into the corners of Hayden’s narrow eyes, and he pressed the back of his pale head against the cold wall, closing his eyes slowly.
He recalled his last conversation with Zane, who was already prepared to die even then.
In just a short time, he had lost his father, mother, and then his brother.
What did Zane leave behind in life?
He left only a medical journal.
Hayden stretched out his trembling fingers to take the medical journal from Justin Xavier’s hand, struggling to pull a thin smile, "Maybe... in this world... there’s only one person who can solve Zane’s... ultimate equation..."
Justin realized that person was... Serena Sterling!
In the end, Zane Crawford was never alone.
Hayden lay in bed, already asleep, as Justin placed the call bell by his side, turned off the lamp, switched on a desk light, then walked out, closing the room door.
...
"Knock, knock," Justin Xavier came to the neighboring room, raising his hand to knock on the door.
Soon, the door opened, and Justin walked in.
The room was lit with an ambiguous, aphrodisiacal glow, all colorful, as a pure and pretty starlet, like a joyous little magpie, ran barefoot towards him, nestling directly in Justin’s arms.
"President Xavier, you finally came, I’ve been waiting for you for so long~"
This starlet, named Davina Rowe, was incredibly beautiful, at the blossoming age of twenty-two, just graduated from university, exuding charm. She knew Justin Xavier liked beautiful women, so she dressed herself up flamboyantly every day.
She also knew how to please men, now running over and wrapping her arms around Justin’s neck, pure yet passionate, any man would find it hard to resist.
Justin had been busy these days, busy prolonging Hayden Crawford’s life, and hadn’t taken a woman out to have fun for a long time. Just coming from Hayden’s room, he looked even more somber and silent.
He didn’t feel like flirting with the starlet, just wanted to relax, so he grasped the secretary’s soft waist with his large hand and pushed her onto the sofa, pressing her head down.
Davina’s head was held by Justin’s large hand, now sitting on the sofa as Justin stood handsomely and elegantly before her, with his icy black eyes falling on her red lips.
Justin had just taken a shower, wearing a black silk robe, with an undisguised gleam of desire in his deep eyes.
Davina’s body softened, melting into his sophisticated yet sly male charm. There are such men, always dressed in perfectly fitting suits, seemingly born ascetic, yet inherently bold, with eyes that can see through women.
Davina really liked Justin Xavier, such a generous business mogul, with great prowess in bed, being with him every day felt like a dream.
She had friends who were with rich men, not those with depraved private lives and always at risk of illness, or plump and greasy middle-aged men in their forties or fifties, while she was with Justin Xavier.
Justin Xavier, oh, Justin Xavier, the richest man in Bayside.
Now she is a popular starlet in the showbiz industry, backed by a powerful patron like Justin, her resources are exploding, and rumors outside compare her to Leah Thorne.
Davina felt incredibly proud, wanting to use all her charm, like an enticing little demon, to hold onto him tightly and make him fall for her.
Now receiving his signal, Davina quickly kneeled on the sofa, reaching out to untie his robe’s belt.
Seeing such an eager Davina, Justin didn’t refuse. It’s just fun outside, he’s got money, and she has the youth and beauty he likes, both taking what they need.
Justin extended his slender fingers, holding her delicate jaw.
Davina looked up, her voice tenderly calling, "President Xavier~"
"President Xavier?" Justin repeated these words, his handsome brows furrowed slightly, a little displeased.
Davina suddenly remembered, in private, he didn’t want her to call him "President Xavier," but instead... to call him brother~
Davina had also heard that all of Justin Xavier’s ex-girlfriends in the past had to call him "brother"~
Does he have some kind of preference? 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Davina could fully understand; men, after all, having small preferences is quite normal.
Immediately, Davina called out pure and charmingly, "Brother~"
Justin’s brow moved, his earlier displeasure fading away. Among all the women around him, this starlet was the one who called "brother" most fittingly.
Honestly, he had grown somewhat fond of this starlet, he changed women like he changed clothes, and this little starlet indeed spent the longest time with him.
Justin recalled the first time he met Davina Rowe...
