Arya couldn't push away Xavier, and he managed to kiss her.
"You're too thin. I do want to raise you like raising a pig."
She was perfect except that she was a little thin.
Xavier carried her upstairs and put her on the bed. "Go to sleep. I'll be back soon."
Arya nodded obediently. Although she was not sleepy at all, she still closed her eyes.
Because she knew that Xavier might have something to do at the moment.
So all she could do was to wait for the result quietly.
When Xavier got up, Arya held his hand and whispered, "After all, she's your fiancée's mother. If it's difficult for you, I won't force you to do that. Besides, I'm the one who's shameful. I don't blame her hating me..."
Xavier pressed her open lips, took a deep look at her, and kissed her on the forehead. "Be good, don't think too much."
She decided to sensibly stop where it should stop. After all, if she continued, it would seem deliberate.
She said with a faint smile, "I will do as you said."
Then she closed her eyes.
Xavier sat quietly by the bed and was not in a hurry to leave.
Arya tilted her head slightly, with her long hair spreading like ink on the pillow. Her cheek was small and delicate. Her skin was pale. She sank into the pillow shallowly. Her eyelashes were curved and thick, which cast a shadow under her eyes.
She was very beautiful when she was quiet.
Even without the ornament of rouge and cosmetics, she still made people hard to not be attracted by her.
Xavier touched her forehead. He knew everything in his heart. The reason why she was so obedient and sensible is that she wanted to make use of him to seek revenge for the grievances she had suffered.
Although he knew in his heart, he didn't want to be perfunctory.
He didn't want her to suffer.
His fingers lingered on her lips and he thought sadly, "You must have bewitched me, which makes me look like not myself."
In the end, all the complicated emotions turned into a helpless sigh.
Seeing that she seemed to be really asleep, he got up and left.
When the door of the room closed, Arya's eyes, which had been closed before, opened, and she was even broad awake.
She lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
She walked to the window, gently lifted the curtains, and watched Xavier downstairs drive away.
The car gradually disappeared from her sight, and her expression became colder.
She involuntarily clenched the curtains in her hands.
She thought that no matter how angry Xavier was, he would at least remember his affection for Harriet.
So he might not punish them too hard.
Estella was his future mother-in-law, so he would never make it public.
However, Arya did not know that Xavier was not soft-hearted, even if Estella was Harriet's mother.
In a private clubhouse in the dark night, Jacob led the way through the dark corridor and stopped at the door of the last box.
There were two subordinates standing at the door. When the two subordinates saw them coming, they said, "Please come in."
And the two pushed the door open.
In the dark private room, Eli sat on the black leather sofa with a very beautiful woman in his arms.
The woman was wearing a sexy strap skirt, with almond eyes, red lips, and wavy black hair, looking voluptuous.
When she saw Xavier come in, her eyes lit up but they quickly darkened.
Xavier was a noble young man and would not like a prostitute like her.
Eli was different. He was the Second Young Master of Green Gang. All his deeds were too shameful to be shown in the public.
Unlike Xavier.
Xavier came to power in both the underworld and the righteous society.
He was the second generation of officials. He was respectable in the official world and people of the underworld didn't dare to provoke him easily.
He was too clean.
That was why Rufus was so determined to drag him down.
Then they would be in the same boat.
Only if Xavier was tainted, the Gates Family would not fear the Jones Family.
But Xavier was not stupid. He would not easily get involved.
Eli clamped a cigar in his mouth and smiled viciously when he saw Xavier, "I've invited Mr. Jones to dinner over and over again but failed. It is my great honor that I finally have the chance to do something for you."
Xavier had no patience to joke with him but went straight to the point. "Where are those people?"
At first, he felt that it was a good thing to take this job privately and drag down Xavier by handing over those people.
But now, these people were like hot potatoes.
If he handed them over for nothing, he was afraid that his followers would be disappointed.
If he didn't hand them over, it was difficult for him to make an explanation to Xavier.
"Did you know what they did? If you don't teach them some lessons, someone will dare to make more serious mistakes behind your back next time. It may not be solved by handing over a few people at that time." Jacob knew Xavier best. If Xavier wanted to handle it with legal methods from the beginning, he wouldn't ask Eli out.
Eli extinguished the half-smoked cigar and pushed the woman away. "Get out first."
The woman was very obedient and left the private room with a smile. Before she left, she secretly glanced at Xavier. Everyone liked to look at beautiful things more.
Eli wasn't stupid. He could do what he said, but he had to get some benefits. "To tell you the truth, Rufus wanted me to pull you in. We made a deal, and he will help me become the successor. If you agree to promise me something, you can deal with those people at will. But don't worry, I won't ask you to do anything illegal. I know your bottom line. I just hope that at the critical moment, Mr. Jones can help me. "
Xavier didn't think much and agreed. Eli was not a fool. It was a little difficult for Eli to hand over those people without getting any benefit.
Xavier could agree because he would have a way to use this favor.
He would never give the initiative to Eli.
Eli knew that Xavier was more reliable than Rufus.
It was not only because Mr. Jones was senior to Mr. Gates but also was because Rufus was no match for Xavier.
Otherwise, why Rufus never won Xavier.
That's why Eli betrayed Rufus.
Eli got a satisfactory result and ordered the subordinates at the door, "Bring them in."
Soon, the three people, being bound, were brought in.
They had done a lot of such things. But this time, they didn't expect to disturb the big shots.
One of them lay on the ground and looked up at Eli. "We were wrong. Please don't kill us. We promise not to do it again."
Eli snorted coldly. "Are the gang rules dummy?"
At this moment, there was a noise outside the door and only a male voice came, "I want to see Eli."
"He is meeting guests inside. Wait a minute."
"No..."
Then the man barged in.
