“Don’t worry about it. We’ll discuss it when the time comes,” replied Zivon.
“…I see. Still, what’ll happen to her, Zivon…? Will you keep her by your side, or…?” muttered Zayne as he turned to look at the person sleeping under the quilts…
Upon hearing that, Zivon glared at Zayne before saying, “You’ve quite a lot to say about my situation… Need me to stuff something into your mouth?”
“Absolutely not! I’ll… Just play with my cell phone here…” muttered Zayne as he fished his cell phone out and began playing some games…
Pleased to see that, Zivon then leaned against his bed, his handsome face looking quite mysterious…
Once all this was over, Xavia would most definitely return to S City to be by Stefan’s side. Since she didn’t wish to remain in Darlsbury and couldn’t give two hoots about him, why should he care about her? Even so, the thought of her being all lovey-dovey with Stefan again—once they reunited—made Zivon feel slightly flustered…
Zivon’s train of thought was cut short when Zayne suddenly called out in a rather loud voice, “Zivon! Hey, Zivon…!”
Due to how loud Zayne was, Xavia was awakened. Watching as she turned to face the other way, Zivon then shot a cold glare at Zayne, actively suppressing the urge to toss a pillow right at Zayne’s face!
Ignoring Zivon’s death glare, Zayne then added, “This is serious, Zivon! How… How did that night’s incident get on the news?!”
Which night was Zayne even talking about? Unsure what to expect, Zivon then outstretched his hand to take a look at Zayne’s cell phone… only to be greeted by the sight of Xavia and Keith hugging each other in a hallway! This was taken during the night of Mr. Lockhart’s birthday banquet!
Beneath the picture, were multiple comments, stating, ‘Good lord! This can’t be a mere misunderstanding, right…?’
‘From the looks of it, Jenna took the initiative to hug him! What more, the way she’s doing it looks quite intimate!’
‘The way Keith’s hugging her almost suggests that they’ve done this hundreds of times too!’
‘I agree with the comment above!’
Even so, Xavia knew that Zivon wouldn’t buy it if she simply pointed fingers at Fiona. Understanding that, Xavia was prompted to say, “Putting the culprit aside, how should we deal with the situation…?”
Narrowing his eyes as he gave it some thought, Zivon eventually replied, “…Let’s not respond first. I’ll get Nathan to send out a lawyer’s letter to prosecute any unwarranted speculations. That should help suppress the situation. We can come up with a more detailed plan later on.”
“I agree. We should take a stand first and let the people calm down. Otherwise, I’m worried Lady Burton will get enraged and fall sick again…” muttered Zayne.
Though she didn’t say it, Xavia was brimming with admiration when she saw how composed the two men were. Then again, she was busy considering how she was going to deal with Fiona as well.
Her train of thought was cut short when Zayne suddenly said, “…Speaking of which, how long do you plan to stay in bed, Miss Lockhart? Are you that comfortable by Zivon’s side?”
Upon hearing that, Xavia finally realized that she was still in bed with Zivon! What more, the pillow between them was no longer there! Without that gap, didn’t they now look like a regular husband and wife?!
Now blushing madly, Xavia then stuttered, “N-no…! I…!”
