“Stop pretending!” Xyla was mad. “Rowan, do you think you’re the only one who’s an expert in medicine? Can you
deceive someone who is not as smart as me instead!?”
She pointed at his arm. She was laughing from rage. “Look! The place that you poked and I did isn’t the same
acupoint!”
“Xyla…”
Rowan called out to her weakly, and then he smiled like an idiot.
Why was she the same when she was young!?
He remembered that she would poke him with a needle when she was mad. Sometimes, he would be poked over
ten times when he talked with women. Half of his body would be numb.
He thought it was strange that an over-10-year-old girl could poke a needle so accurately.
He realized it made sense. She was the princess of the Irwins. The family had been the royalty’s doctors for
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgenerations. She was blessed with talent and knowledge in medicine, unlike him, who had to work hard and take
small steps to get what he had.
There were no shortcuts—he had to push through, just like the revenge that year.
The moment Xyla broke up with him, he had been heartbroken but had pushed through.
He could no longer do that now. He could not go on.
“Xyla, can you let me speak—”
“You don’t have to.” Her voice was shaking. “When you recover and get discharged, let’s pretend we never knew
each other.”
“Xyla!”
She stared him directly into his eyes. “Rowan, don’t forget your promise!”
Rowan was stunned. If he could turn back time, he would eagerly strangle himself when he made that promise.
What the h*ll? Why did he make that promise? He had even said they would not bother each other and never see
each other again?
Someone must have hit him in the head!
He took a deep breath in and saw Xyla turning around. She looked old, no longer thin and beautiful like when she
was young.
Nevertheless, she was the only woman for him in the world.
He admitted that he had fallen in love with her back then for her intelligence and beauty.
Although she was old and not as beautiful as before, he was willing to hold her hand to catch fireflies in the
rainforest with her.
He wanted to hold her hand to walk on the streets, buy her flowers when they passed by a florist, and kneel to give
her the flowers.
She was the princess, and he was willing to be her knight for the rest of his life.
His voice deepened as he enunciated each word. “Xyla, I’m… taking back my words!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXyla felt a jolt in her heart. She turned around and stared at him.
He would do everything that he had promised her since they were young. He was a man of his word. That was how
Irwin Pharmaceuticals was unshakable.
However, he broke his own rule now.
“Rowan…”
“Here.” He took the Irwin Pharmaceuticals’ jade stamp out of his pocket.
The beautiful mutton fat jade was crystal clear. It was priceless. That was the special symbol exclusive to Irwin
Pharmaceuticals of Southeast Aciatic carved on it.
The symbol was on Irwin Pharmaceuticals’ bottles, the little wooden box, and the shawl she loved.
It was in The Fireflies’ Light painting.
It was the Irwins’ century-old glory, but she had almost extinguished it.
Fortunately, Rowan let the glory live. He even pushed the Irwins to a higher ground.
Xyla’s eyes turned red, and tears flowed from her face.
“This stamp belongs to you.” Rowan choked. “The entire Irwin Pharmaceuticals should go back to its owner.”
“Rowan…” Xyla choked too. She only managed to speak after a while. “Don’t you think it’s too late to say all these
now?”
