‘Since you understand that you’re nothing to me, why would I ever be angry at Maison because of you?’
…An utterly ruthless response… The text alone was capable of sending chills down anyone’s spine… Whatever the case was, Xavia’s face instantly went pale after reading that.
True enough, why on earth would she ever affect how he treated Maison? She had once again been full of herself! Saddened by this, she then placed her phone back where it was before draping her blankets over herself to try to sleep…
However, it wasn’t long after before her message notification rang again. Though Xavia attempted to ignore it, she eventually couldn’t help herself from grabbing her phone and pulling it under the sheets with her… Upon reading the message, however, she couldn’t help but widen her eyes in surprise.
‘I can give you the house. Just come over tomorrow.’
…What? He was willing to do that? Actually, hold on. That wasn’t the most important thing here!
Having mixed feelings about all this, Xavia eventually decided to reply with a text, stating, ‘…My previous text wasn’t an attempt to get the house from you again, Young Master Burton. I just wanted to admit that I now realize that my actions were wrong. While I appreciate the offer, it’s really fine. I’ll just look for another house…’
Not only had he been furious when she requested for the house this morning, but he had even told Keith that it was impossible for her to obtain it! With that in mind, why was he willing to lend the house to her now? That aside, she really didn’t want to get involved with him any longer, so she didn’t even want the house anymore…
Unfortunately for her, he never replied to her message… Instead, the next message she got was from Nathan!
‘Good evening, Miss Lockhart… The house’s address is xxx…’
…What the hell was going on?! Had Zivon finally lost it…?!
“As the saying goes, sometimes, there is only one person for you, and in this case, there is only one place for me. That aside, what deep grudges do you have against Young Master Burton anyway?” asked Bianca, whose sudden question startled Xavia.
After a brief pause, Xavia couldn’t help but recall what had happened back when she was in prison… At the time, she had truly suffered miserably in that cell… It was a feeling of complete devastation that she had never felt before… She couldn’t even find a shred of hope to cling onto at the time…
While she wasn’t able to ask him to save her, nor was he obliged to do so, to think that he hadn’t even bothered to look her way despite being so close to her… It was almost as though he only saw her as shameless trash… That action of his truly felt like he was dousing salt over her open wounds…
Shaking the thought off, Xavia paused for a moment before eventually replying, “…It’s nothing major. Regardless, since you insist, let’s just head over to have a look…”
Even Xavia wanted to see what Zivon was up to this time… With that, it was exactly nine when both of them arrived outside the house…
