Chapter 310

On top of that, her eagerness to clear up their relationship and let everyone know that there was nothing in between the both of them made him feel very unhappy too. Any woman would wish for the luxury of having a relationship with him, even if they had to live ten years shorter. If another woman had the opportunity to have sexual relations with him, they would certainly be cheering and telling it to the world. She was really capable. She only wanted to bury it and forget all about it. At the end of the day, just how much did she hate him? After explaining herself, Xavia subconsciously looked at Zivon, and she realized that his aura was even colder and that he was also glancing at her with a stern look in his eyes. She could not understand him. Shouldn’t he be happy that she was clarifying their relationship? Why did it seem as though he was even colder now? Could it be that he wished that she was pregnant? Impossible. How could that be possible? Even a fantasy would not be so frightening. Xavia did not want to continue thinking about it. So, she quickly looked away from him and looked at Matthew instead, “Dr. Rudner, I really cannot take this tonic soup anymore. Can you make an exception today and allow me to eat normally? “Hmm? Is that okay?” Not many people liked the taste of medicinal herbs, not to mention that she had already been taking it for seven consecutive days. Even if it were the most delicious food, it would still make people feel sick. Therefore, Xavia acted coquettishly as she pleaded with him. It was very pleasing and adorable. How could Matthew possibly stand this kind of attitude? He could not bear to see her unhappy too. So, he said, “Okay then. You can eat whatever you want for lunch today. I will adjust the plan for you at night.” “Thank you! You’re so kind. You’re the gentlest and most understanding doctor that I’ve ever met.” Xavia smiled brightly, and her eyes were squeezed into the shape of a crescent moon. Matthew smiled. “You really know how to sweet talk.” “Hehe. What I said is the truth.” Xavia was happy to please him. She enjoyed eating some dishes today, and it would be fine even if she had to continue flattering him! Zivon’s expression as he sat opposite her instantly darkened, and he looked extremely grim. Matthew’s relationship with Xavia was no less than that of a newly-acquainted patient-doctor, but she smiled so brightly when she spoke to him. Unfortunately, however, she was always so distant and cold toward him. This kind of differential treatment made Zivon feel very unhappy and displeased. During the meal. Everyone was lost in their thoughts as they ate. Xavia was very happy. Braised pork ribs, Australian lobster, grilled marbled steak… She loved each of these dishes. After eating, her stomach was full, and she was pleased when she stood up. She decided to go upstairs to take another nap. That would be the greatest blessing in this life. “Mr. Lockhart, Mrs. Lockhart, Young Master Kevin. Dr. Rudner, I’m going upstairs to rest first. Call me if you need anything.” After saying that, Xavia took a step forward and went upstairs. She greeted every single person one by one. Everyone except Zivon! Zivon tightened his grip around the coffee cup that he was holding. There was a subtle and dangerous sound as if the cup was about to break at any moment. Very good! He had spent two hours in Lockhart Mansion now, and she had either been hiding from him or acting ignorantly. It seemed as if the person who had had many ambiguous interactions with him before this was not her. He had a cold expression on his face. “I’ve something to speak with her about. You guys should continue chatting.” After that, he left coldly and nobly. He had a steady pace and a powerful aura, like a demon from hell. The people at the table shuddered, and it seemed as if they did not have any doubts that the both of them did not have an ambiguous relationship. After all, Zivon’s aura was so cold that it would even be possible for him to freeze Xavia to death… After going back to the room, Xavia closed the door as she intended to sleep. Slam! A long and slender big hand suddenly appeared on the door, stopping her. When she looked up from the suit to the arm, she saw the man’s gloomy expression and his cold, stern eyes. “Young Master Burton, do you need something from me?” Her small voice sounded very anxious, and her brows were knitted together as if she was feeling tense and resistant. ‘Pfft. You were so enthusiastic when you were speaking with another man.’ Zivon spoke coldly as he snorted, “Can’t I look for you when I do not need anything? I remember a certain someone and I spent a very intimate night together. Not long ago, you were also wearing halter pajamas when you climbed into my bed. So I don’t think we are so unfamiliar with each other, right?” Xavia was shocked. This was Lockhart Mansion, and he was standing in the hallway! There might even be maids passing by! How could he say such direct and explicit words that might cause a misunderstanding?! Xavia’s face turned pale as she pulled him into the room and closed the door.
