Chapter 1045

At that moment, Zivon’s slender figure entered the room. His muscles were visible under his white shirt, and Xavia blushed when she noticed it. She pulled the quilt up slightly as she did not dare to look him in the eye. “Zivon, I…” Am prepared… “Xav, I have to go out for a while.” The man suddenly said, his tone gentle. Xavia felt as if she had just been splashed with a bucket of cold water. She did not know why she felt a sense of loss and not relief. “Aren’t you going to rest for a while? Is there something urgent you have to do?” Right after she spoke, Xavia suddenly realized that what she said sounded very suggestive, and her face turned a bright red. Zivon looked at her flustered appearance. Her hair was messy and there was also a mark on her neck where he had kissed her before. Zivon gazed at her affectionately. “Mm. Sophia Harrison called and said that we need to discuss the matter in the news urgently.” Most importantly, he wanted to regain his control and not touch her for the time being. “You should rest for a while. I will come back and accompany you after I am done settling this.” After that, he took his suit jacket and went out. Click! The room door closed, and Xavia’s heart dropped along with the sound. What had she been thinking just now?! Not only had she looked forward to doing it, but she even tried to keep him here?! Ah, she really did not want to live anymore! After pounding the pillow on the bed, Xavia felt very shy and wanted to leave, only to find that she still could not use the elevator. Thus, she could only remain in the room. “Xav, is there something wrong with your brain? How could you post something like that to help Sophia Harrison?” Dolly called Xavia and exclaimed in disbelief. “It was so difficult for you to get with Young Master Burton! Why do you have to be so righteous and follow the rules when you've finally got your golden opportunity? You're not the Virgin Mary!” Dolly was very angry, so she scolded Xavia quite harshly. Xavia knew that Dolly was just feeling anxious for her. Xavia had only done so back then because her heart was cold since she and Zivon had just broken up. However, Xavia did not regret it. She would have made the same choice even if they had still been together. Sophia would always be the person standing between her and Zivon, so if she did not deal with this now, problems could arise in the future. If she let Zivon date Sophia, she would not only be testing Zivon but she would also be making Sophia give up. If something really happened between Zivon and Sophia, then that would mean that he was not worthy of Xavia's feelings for him. If he remained unmoved and kept his distance from Sophia, then someone as intelligent as Sophia would definitely give up. “Calm down, Dolly, this won't affect my relationship with Young Master Burton. In fact, we were together earlier and we almost…” She trailed off, sounding flustered and shy. Dolly instantly understood the meaning behind Xavia’s words. “Really?! Quick—tell me what happened!What did the both of you do?!” “Ahem... I said we almost…” “Xavia, you sound a little disappointed…” Xavia couldn't deny it. “I’m hanging up!” Xavia quickly ended the call and ran into the bathroom. She turned on the tap and splashed cold water onto her face. She was not disappointed… Absolutely not! After calming down, Xavia ordered some groceries online. She planned to cook a meal tonight and pick Maison and Yulia up so that they could have some quality family time together. At the same time, it would also be a sign of reconciliation. The two children would be very happy tonight. When she was halfway through the meal preparation, the doorbell rang. Xavia walked over to open the door. Slap! To her shock, she was greeted with a slap! It was so quick and harsh that Xavia was caught off guard. Xavia’s head turned from the force, and her cheek immediately turned red, burning in pain. She turned around and looked at the person in front of her, and her eyes widened in surprise. The woman standing in the doorway was wearing the latest Chanel dress. She was dressed beautifully and had an angry expression on her face. It wasn't someone she had expected, but it was undoubtedly a familiar face…
