Chapter 2894
Fast forward to the day of Xanon World’s grand opening, Xavia received a plethora of awards as expected. Naturally, this meant that there were reporters plaguing her from left and right as well…
“Did you design everything yourself, Mrs. Burton?! Did Mr. Burton help you at all?!” was one of the questions, and before Xavia could reply, Zivon suddenly stood right next to her!
“She designed everything as a gift to me… Truth be told, I’ve just learned about this building recently as well.”
“So she did design everything! How impressive! May we know what prompted you to create this grand structure, Mrs. Burton?”
Smiling in response, Xavia replied, “Sadly, that’s a secret that only my husband and I know…”
“Aww… Well, you heard her, folks! That aside, what do you think about her gift, Young Master Burton?”
“Easily the third best thing I’ve ever been given. The second, being the kids she blessed me with, and the top… Well, her giving herself to me,” replied Zivon, instantly bringing the crowd to an uproar! Just how romantic could this man get?!
“While we’re on the topic, how do you rate her design, Mr. Burton? Also, with how many awards she just won, do you feel overshadowed?”
Grinning in response, Zivon replied, “From an architect’s point of view, I can safely say that this is one of the grandest designs I’ve ever witnessed… And as for the second question, how could I feel overshadowed when I’m so proud of her? Besides, her being ‘on top’ would make an interesting dynamic, wouldn’t you all say…?”
As expected, his suggestive words drove the crowd even wilder than before…!
Once the conference was finally over, Xavia couldn’t help but grumble, “…How old are you again? How could you say something so suggestive live!”
“What? I don’t think I said anything wrong,” replied Zivon in a way that suggested that she was the one overreacting…
Pursing her lips, Xavia then grumbled, “…Just admit it already or I’ll bite you!”
“Oh…? Where would you like to bite…?”
…Damn it. There really was no winning against him, was there?! Not wanting to admit defeat just yet, she grabbed his glasses before putting them on him and saying, “You know, they oddly fit for someone with your temperament…”
…Oh? Was she saying that he was too much of a perv to deserve such an intelligent look? Chuckling in response, he then pulled her close before replying, “Well, since you’ve brought my temperament up, it would be a shame if I didn’t act the part, right…?”
…Goddamn it…!
