Chapter 312
“W-What are you doing? Get out of my way quickly!”
Xavia was anxious, ashamed and annoyed like a deer caught in the headlights.
In contrast, Zivon’s dignified expression did not change in the slightest. He still looked noble, natural and elegant as usual.
He stared at her and he parted his thin lips to say word by word, “I’ll give you a few days to think about how you can calm me down before Jenna wakes up.
“Otherwise, you won’t be able to afford the consequences. Do you understand me?”
His amped-up voice sounded dangerous and scary.
There was no room for negotiation.
Xavia’s small face was pale. How could she possibly know how to calm him down?
However, it was not the time for her to refute his words now. If she were to delay any longer, everything would be over once Mrs. Lockhart opened the door!
She nodded. “Hurry and let me go.”
The girl’s face was flushed and her lips were round and cherry-red at close quarters.
Zivon narrowed his eyes, lowered his head and kissed her lips.
“This is the deposit. I’ll be looking forward to your performance.”
After that, he finally let her go.
HowXavia was completely petrified in place and her mind was blank!
Was he insane? How could he kiss her?!
Xavia’s heart raced wildly when she felt the warm, wet and soft sensation on her lips.
Damn it!
What did he regard her as? How could he kiss her so casually?!
“Xavia Lockhart, what did Zivon come to talk to you about?” Mrs. Lockhart’s questioning voice sounded.
Xavia abruptly came back to her senses. When she saw Mrs. Lockhart had entered the room, she said nervously, “Nothing. We’re just chatting. He asked me to drink the tonic soup properly to donate blood to Jenna.”
Was that so?
Why did it feel like something was not right?
The keen-eyed Mrs. Lockhart suddenly noticed that something was not right with Xavia’s lips and her face tensed up. “What’s wrong with your lips? And why is your face so flushed?”
Was that so?
Xavia quickly wiped her mouth and came up with an excuse.
“Young Master Burton closed the door just now and the air circulation in the room wasn’t smooth. So, I felt thirsty and kept licking my lips. My flushed face is because of the air circulation too.
“You can’ be thinking that there is something going on between me and Young Master Burton and that he kissed me, right?”
Mrs. Lockhart initially had doubts in her mind.
However, as soon as Xavia said these words, she instantly felt more amused than the jokes from The Arabian Nights.
“How could that be? Who is Zivon Burton? He is such a lofty and reserved man. How could he possibly kiss you?
“Alright then. You better rest well. You should take care of your own body before you can give Jenna a blood transfusion.”
Mrs. Lockhart turned around and left.
Xavia heaved a sigh of relief as it was finally settled.
She stepped into the bathroom inside and looked at her flushed face in the mirror. After that, she turned on the tap and splashed a handful of cold water on her face.
“Wake up! Why are you blushing?”
He had just kissed Jenna in the bedroom before this so kissing on lips was just something so casual that it did not mean anything to him. So, she should not harbor any feelings for him.
After washing her face, Xavia laid on the wide bed, closed her eyes and calmed her mind down.
Everything that had happened between her and him was never her fault. He was the one who had always been taking advantage of her, but now she had to please him instead. How could there be such a domineering and shameless man?
However, Xavia could feel that Zivon was not joking when he said those words earlier. If he could say it, then he would definitely do it. She should not challenge his authority even if it was for Yulia’s sake.
Moreover, she only had about seven days to go. How could she please him? How could she quell his anger?
Sigh. What a headache.
Xavia took out her cell phone and updated her Facebook status. She was worried that outsiders would begin to feel suspicious if she did not update her status soon. Moreover, he should somehow thank her for helping him to maintain his relationship with Jenna, right?
After posting the status. a WhatsApp notification ringtone sounded with ‘ding-dong’.
