Jenna was so angry that she really wanted to rush into the private room so that she could grab Xavia and kill her directly. But no, she could not do that. The more things had reached this point, the more she would have to stay calm.
Now, Zivon had already promised to marry her at the end of the month. Xavia was also in a relationship with Stefan now, she should not do anything else because everything would be over if she were to provoke Zivon.
After thinking it through, Jenna took out her cell phone and transferred two hundred thousand dollars over to Cara directly.
[The additional one hundred thousand dollars is to buy your silence so that you will keep this secret forever. Yulia Lockhart is your son’s child.]
“What are you doing here?”
Right after she sent the text message, a deep questioning voice suddenly rang behind her.
When Jenna turned around, she saw the cold and condescending Zivon. Her hands trembled a little because of her guilty conscience as she quickly turned off her cell phone.
“No, nothing. I was just explaining some work matters to the crew. I already bought gifts for Xavia and Chairman Talton. They should be waiting for us already. Come, let’s go in together.”
Zivon had never been curious about Jenna’s affairs. So, he simply looked at her before he averted his gaze without asking her any more questions about it.
Inside the private room, the food had already been served on the table. Xavia and Stefan were already sitting at the dining table while taking care of the two young children. Xavia was overwrought when she saw Jenna and Zivon walking in together.
Yulia has never met Jenna before. So, the consequences would be disastrous if Jenna were to recognize her!
If Jenna had not known the truth, she would not have noticed Xavia’s guilty conscience. She glared at Xavia without getting noticed before she quickly returned to her normal self.
“Wow! Is this the little princess that Xavia has been taking care of? She is so adorable. Chairman Talton, thank you so much for accepting Xavia and this little princess. This is the cake that I ordered. I wish that the both of you will have a sweet and happy romance so that you can strive to enter the wedding hall together.”
Xavia heaved a sigh of relief and reached out her hand to accept it. “Thank you, sister.” After that, she asked Yulia to lower her head to eat her own food and to talk less.
“Young Master Burton and Mrs. Burton.”
“That’s right, Young Master Burton. All the television channels are broadcasting this good news tonight. Everyone in the country knows about it,” the manager said joyfully before turning on the oversized television in the private room. Coincidentally, the host on the television happened to be making the announcement.
“The latest news is that the Burton family has released an official announcement at seven o’clock tonight, stating that Young Master Zivon Burton would be getting married to Miss Jenna Lockhart at the end of the month. Moreover, the Burton family is already making preparations for the wedding now. Mrs. Burton kindly told everyone that Miss Jenna Lockhart is a gentle and kind lady that her whole family is very fond of. This wedding came a little too late, but it would also be the grandest wedding as a form of apology to Miss Jenna Lockhart.
“Four years ago, Miss Jenna Lockhart had given birth to the Little Master Burton for Young Master Burton. Please stay tuned for the next report for more information.”
Every word was crisp and clear as it floated in the air, overflowing with a strong sense of joy.
Their marriage was clearly cast in stone.
Zivon’s face fell and his eyes, as deep as the deep blue ocean, were staring at Xavia opposite him.
He was getting married. What would her reaction be?
