Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 249

The man was impeccably attired, and he had a very powerful aura.

He had the perfect body ratio, and his legs were incomparably slender and straight.

His shirt buttons and tie were meticulously fastened. He was ascetic and noble. As soon as he made an appearance, he brought about such brilliance that the huge company was reduced to being nothing more than a background picture.

He was the master of this company, and he was the king who was in control of this company’s life and death—Zivon.

The manager at the front desk and the security personnel bowed respectfully and greeted him politely.

“Hello, Chairman Burton.”

“Hello, Chairman Burton.”

He was met with the sound of people greeting him wherever he went.

Xavia looked at him, feeling as if she was watching an idol television drama.

She subconsciously lowered her head to greet him. “Hello, Chairman Burton…”

Zivon knitted his brows. Chairman Burton? Did she think that she was an employee here?

Zivon walked in front of her and he stopped one step in front of her. After that, he reached out his hand and held her wrist as he pulled her to his side.

“You learned how to joke around now? Don’t you refer to me intimately when we are at home?”

Um.

It was only then that Xavia realized that there was something wrong with how she was addressing him. But he should just talk if he had to. Why would he hug her in front of so many people at work? She was…not used to it.

She smiled awkwardly and said, “Mm. I was just kidding. This is the lunch box that I brought for you.”

Zivon hummed lightly. After that, he glanced at the security personnel present and instructed, “My wife can go in and out of this place as she pleases in future. You don’t need to stop her.”

It was domineering and dignified.

The words ‘my wife’ also made it seem even more protective and affectionate.

The security personnel lowered their heads as they received his order. “Yes, Chairman Burton!”

Zivon didn’t stay much longer. He brought Xavia with him as he turned around and strode into the company. They stepped into the chairman’s special elevator and went upstairs.

The company lobby.

In the dark.

Dylan Burton narrowed his sharp eyes as he watched their backs as they disappeared.

He recalled that Jenna had always been very sharp and arrogant. Even if Zivon had already instructed the security personnel, she would find many different excuses to scold the security personnel and enter the company by force.

Why was she being so gentle today?

In the elevator.

There was only Zivon and Xavia.

His slender and broad hand was holding her hand from the beginning to the end.

The temperature of his hand wasn’t warm or hot, but Xavia constantly felt that there was an inexplicable electricity passing into her bloodstream through her skin, and it made her feel very nervous.

Calm down.

When he said ‘my wife’ just now, he was referring to Jenna. When he instructed the security personnel that she would be allowed to come in and out as she pleased, he was also referring to Jenna.

The fact that he was holding her hand now was also because he was holding Jenna’s hand. She was simply taking Jenna’s place.

As for her, there was not a trace of relationship between the both of them at all.

Ding.

The elevator doors opened.

Xavia retracted her thoughts and pulled her small hand out of his big one as she awkwardly came up with a topic for conversation.

“The company is so big. So, it turns out that you work in this kind of environment. It’s really great.”

As soon as her words fell.

A woman wearing a black suit uniform with an amazing figure walked up to them.

“Chairman Burton, the young mistress is here. Do you need me to prepare coffee or fruit juice for her?”

She was beautiful, dazzling and an absolute stunner.

Zivon naturally replied, “Fruit juice.”

Xavia was silent.

She was about to get a nosebleed.

Was that woman just now Zivon’s secretary?

After sitting for a while, Xavia felt very uncomfortable and said, “Everything is fine, right? Can I go back now?”

Zivon was still busy with the document in his hand. He didn’t look up and he only replied, “You can just stay in the office today. It is your father’s birthday banquet tonight. We will go over there together.”

What? Stay in the office all day?

Xavia scratched her hair. “I will die of boredom. Besides, I don’t want to attend Chairman Lockhart’s birthday banquet.”

They didn’t even treat her as their own daughter so she didn’t need to show them respect either.

Zivon closed the file and raised his head. After that, he looked at her with his handsome face and a deep look in his eyes.

“You have no choice but to attend it. If you are bored, you can go to the lounge to practice and build up your courage. You were too gentle with the security personnel downstairs just now.”

It was an accusatory tone once again.

Xavia was speechless.

It was only normal for her to respect people who were working. Besides, the security personnel were simply obeying his orders.

It was really difficult for people to butter up to Jenna and Zivon.

“I’ll just give them a slap next time,” Xavia muttered.

It was a jab meant to be sarcastic.

As a result, Zivon agreed with his eyes. “A slap would indeed be better than your weakness when you don’t know how to deal with the situation.”

Xavia didn’t know what to say.

She was absolutely speechless now!

“By the way…” Zivon suddenly thought of something and his eyes deepened.

“Don’t you think that you should make it up to me for what happened last night?”

Last night…

He actually had the nerve to talk about last night?

Xavia raised her chin.

“Although I was timid and I was the one who provoked you first, you took advantage of me too. So we can just call it quits.”

“Why should I be making it up to you?”
