“No.” Xavier turned on the tap.
Sean heard the sound of water running and stood uncertainly in the doorway.
Then he heard the water stop, and there was the sound of Xavier pushing the stool across the floor inside. He knocked again. "Can I come in?" "Yes."
Sean pushed the door open and entered. He saw Xavier, who looked damp and soft, rather like a tiny marshmallow. He had wrapped himself up in a little hooded bath towel printed with bears and had a matching hat. He looked like a newborn bear cub but with a cool expression.
"Can I help you?" asked Sean. "It's dangerous for children to use hairdryers by themselves. I'll dry your hair," said Sean. He plugged the hairdryer in and began to blow Xavier's hair.
Xavier's hair was a mess. He looked up and watched the man in the mirror, who had his head lowered as he turned Xavier's head around with his large, powerful hands. His grip was firm but not too strong, and it felt rather comfortable.
When Xavier's hair was dry and he had brushed his teeth, he carried his pajamas out. "I'm going out to change. You should hurry up and shower!” "Okay!" Sean beamed as he watched Xavier's retreating figure. When Sean came out of the shower, Xavier was already asleep.
The little boy looked exactly like Yasmine when he was sleeping. The only difference was that Xavier had thicker eyebrows. Both of them looked as delicate as dolls, but one could easily tell Xavier was a boy.
Sean kissed Xavier's soft, chubby cheeks and pulled the blanket over him. Then he lay down beside him and cuddled him carefully, just like what he had done with Yasmine.
Both Xavier and Yasmine were treasures to Sean

If Vitality Biotech Group withdrew from the Marvonian market, what would the people do if they were sick and lacked drugs?
