Zivon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Maison’s two small hands which were exerting strength. He couldn’t bear to pry his hands open, so he said to Xavia, “You can sleep here. You can leave after he is asleep.”“Ahh?” Sleep here? On his bed?Xavia felt that this was inappropriate, and she wanted to say something. However, Zivon was already lying next to his child elegantly. He took up a very indifferent and casual posture, and he did not seem unnatural or awkward at all. Oh right. He was only doing it because of Maison. If she were to make a fuss, then it would make it seem as though she was thinking too much instead. Xavia could only kick her shoes off helplessly and lay on the bed.The quilt was covered and the lights were turned off. Only the soft night light remained, and everything was very warm and quiet.The only sound that they could hear was each other’s breathing. Xavia really wanted to persuade herself to be indifferent, but the noble man was lying next to little
“The situation is too complicated, and I can’t explain everything to you at the moment. So, you should come back as soon as possible.”“Oh, okay.”Xavia didn’t say anything else. She didn’t even comb her hair or change her clothes. Instead, she ran out of the room with her cell phone in her hand.When she arrived downstairs, she saw Zivon and Maison, who were pruning flower branches in the garden. So, she hurriedly went over and greeted them, “Young Master Burton and Maison, something came up today so I have to go home.”After that, Xavia then ran away in a hurry. Maison raised his brows. “What happened to aunt? Why is she so anxious? Do we need to go and help her?”Zivon obviously did not have the time to do that. He was already taking time out of his busy schedule to accompany Maison to trim the plants today. Besides, why would Xavia’s problem have anything to do with him anyway?After Xavia left, she took a cab to return to Dolly’s apartment.As soon as she stepped inside
The air was so quiet that even the sound of a needle dropping to the ground could be heard. It was very repressed.After a long time, Yulia suddenly asked, “Mommy, you are trying to pursue that man, right?”What?“I…” ‘Am not!’Xavia instantly wanted to deny it, but Yulia continued analyzing the situation by saying, “You like him, so that’s the reason why you went shopping with him. You like him, so that’s the reason why you’re trying to please that kid because you want to become his stepmother. You are really an embarrassment to us women! How can you be on the losing end?”Ugh! What kind of goddamned logic was this?!Xavia spoke up, “Yulia, it’s really not what you think it is. Mommy and that man…”“But mommy, that man is rich, handsome, and he also has a pair of long legs. He is really handsome and he is even more handsome than the actors in Korean dramas! I’ll choose him! I support you! I agree to let him become my father!”Pfft.Her attitude changed a bit too quickly.Xav
Villa.It was all silent. The lights shone brightly outside the window and the water from the fountain was flowing. The night scenery was extremely beautiful and quiet. A small figure was sitting next to a big figure on the simple and yet luxurious modern style sofa. The big figure was cold and noble with a very powerful aura, while the small figure was very cool and adorable with a worried expression on his small face.“Daddy, why isn’t Aunt back yet? Could it be that she had ran into some bad guys on the way?” Maison could not help but speak up. Ever since he started living with Xavia, Maison had become very reliant on Xavia and it also seemed as though he had turned into a little chatterbox.“Lately there is news about girls being dismembered. Aunt is very beautiful, so I’m positive that she will certainly be targeted by bad people.”Zivon had never seen his child being so worried about others and talking so much. So he raised his eyebrows and said, “When have you ever shown s
Zivon raised the corner of his lips slightly. “Getting married?”His noble voice was obviously filled with coldness and shock.Jenna nodded. “That’s right. I happened to hear her foster mother talking about it by chance. It seems as though she was going to get married to that middle-aged widower, Luke Wilson. I don’t know what’s up with my younger sister. Although Luke’s assets would eventually belong to her after his death, how could she let go of her lifetime’s happiness just because of that? Ahh... I really have to talk to her properly about this when I see her next time.”Jenna made it sound as though she was concerned about Xavia on the surface with just a few words, but in reality, she was intentionally saying that Xavia was getting married to an old man for the sake of money.Zivon had a cold expression on his face.Was the black card that he had given to Xavia not enough? Was she still that short on money?The air was filled with frost. Jenna smiled slightly, suddenly c
Ring ring~ Ring ring~ There was the abrupt sound of a cell phone ringing.Luke stopped his movements and he took out his cell phone. After seeing the incoming call on his cell phone, he swiped on his cell phone to answer the call.“What’s up? What did you say? The investment promotion event has been changed to today? The famous Stefan Talton will be there as well? Okay, okay. I will get prepared as soon as possible.”Stefan Talton!When Xavia heard this name, the flames of hope flared up in her eyes as she asked, “You’re going to attend the investment promotion event?”Luke hung up the phone and looked at her. “Yes. Count yourself lucky. I’ll let you off for the time being but…” Luke smiled sinisterly. “Don’t be too happy. You can just drink this first and settle yourself at home. Wait for me to come home so that I can satisfy you completely.”As he spoke, he grabbed Xavia’s chin, wanting to forcefully feed her the medication.He used great force and it hurt so much that Xavia c
Xavia prepared to seize the opportunity but she was stunned to see the two figures inside the luxurious room!A man and woman were sitting face-to-face on the sofa. The man looked noble and handsome, and the woman was very gentle and virtuous. She was fixing his tie for him and their posture looked very intimate. It was a very beautiful scene that was as romantic as the scene between the male and female protagonists in the Korean dramas that Yulia watched.Elder sister! Zivon!They were actually here.Xavia was overjoyed and she was about to say something when the man’s cold and icy gaze suddenly shot over.It was so ruthless and alienating.That’s right. She had already disappeared for one night but he did not care about her at all. She was just a dispensable existence to him, right…Xavia could not help but feel a little upset in her heart. Zivon did not expect to see Xavia here. He knitted his brows coldly when he saw Luke who was beside her and when he saw that they were h
Her voice was so loud that it resounded loudly across the room and filled the entire corridor.However, when Zivon stepped into the elevator with Jenna in his arms, someone happened to be playing music inside the elevator, so Zivon did not hear Xavia’s cry for help.The noble and indifferent expression on his handsome face did not change in the slightest. The elevator door slowly closed, as if it was the door of despair which was shutting all of Xavia’s hopes down.Her hopes were dashed and she felt a pang of sadness in her heart. It was over. It was all over.Luke was furious. “You bitch! If I don’t make you kneel down and call me your master today, my last name isn’t Wilson!”He raised his hand as he prepared to give her another slap.Xavia had already lost all strength in her body and she could not resist in any way because she was completely powerless. She subconsciously closed her eyes as she prepared to endure that slap.Surprisingly, the pain that she had imagined di
