Xavia realized that something wasn’t right with the look in Jenna’s eyes, so she looked over in the direction of Jenna’s line of sight and saw the high and mighty man.
The cold atmosphere and the dangerous aura lingering around him made people shudder!
He parted his lips coldly. “What is it that you don’t want me to know?”
His voice was cold and stern, and he had a questioning tone.
Xavia felt extremely awkward and anxious. She was simply trying to scare her elder sister just now, but he actually heard their conversation. What would he think of her now?
No, why should she care about what he thought of her anyway?!
Jenna felt guilty upon hearing his question. “Zivon, it’s nothing. It’s just a small matter.”
However, Zivon was very conceited, so he ignored Jenna. After that, he stared at Xavia. “How much hush money are you intending to ask her to give you? I’ll give you the money to tell me the truth instead.”
There was obviously a hint of ridicule and sarcasm in these words.
Sure enough. He had a prejudice against her.
Xavia obviously didn’t care about him, but for some reason, she didn’t know why she felt a little uncomfortable in the depths of her heart when she heard him asking her about the matter at this moment.
After receiving a pleading look from her elder sister, Xavia said, “All right then. However, you don’t have to pay me again since you have already given me the black card before this. When my sister played a temporary role on the set last week, the male actor made a pass at her and kissed her. She didn’t want you to find out about it.”
She knew that Zivon definitely wouldn’t believe it if she were to come up with any ordinary excuse at this kind of critical juncture. Moreover, since Jenna was always threatening her, Xavia decided to make life a bit difficult for her.
Otherwise, Jenna would only be bullying her time after time. Did Jenna think that she was a kitty cat?
Xavia walked over and sat on the edge of the bed. “Stop pretending. Hurry up and wake up.”
When Maison heard Xavia’s voice, he flipped open the quilt and revealed his small head. “Have they already left?”
The tone of his question seemed to imply that he was dodging someone. As for the person that he was dodging, it was definitely not Zivon.
Xavia asked curiously, “I think that should be the case. You don’t like your mommy, do you?”
Maison nodded without speaking. He didn’t say a word and it seemed as though he had returned to his autistic state.
Xavia knew that it must be due to Jenna not taking care of Maison as if he was her own child. This made Maison feel alienated from her. She held his small hand in distress.
“Okay, let’s stop talking about this. I’ll take you out to have fun.”
