Chapter 324

The man happened to be standing under the light when he asked that question. He was wearing a black suit and white shirt, and his facial appearance was handsome without much emotion. When the soft yellow light shone on him, deep and imperceptible intent filled his profound eyes. Xavia was tempted to say that she certainly felt aggrieved. However, this man’s maturity and trace of danger warned her that she should neither provoke him nor anger him. Everything would be fine if she just endured the last six days. She took a deep breath and forced a smile. “No. It’s an honor to be able to share a bed with Young Master Burton. I’m just worried that I won’t be able to give Jenna a blood transfusion in time.” Only then did Zivon retract his gaze. He walked to the clothes stand and unbuttoned his suit jacket with his slender fingers as he said, “Come to the company with me in the morning tomorrow. I’ll ask the doctor to come over to get the blood.” He was always like this. He could deal with it easily no matter what kind of situation he encountered. His abilities and means were indeed admirable. Xavia resigned to her fate and replied, “Okay.” Anyway, there were only six days left. She would bear with it and it would be over. She walked over and sat on the bed directly, preparing to sleep. Zivon knitted his brows. “Are you not going to take a shower?” He was a clean freak who did not like going to bed without washing up. Xavia said, “I’m too tired and I don’t feel like showering. Don’t come near me if you think that I am dirty.” “…” Zivon watched Xavia lying down and pulling the quilt to sleep at the innermost corner of the bed. She did not even take her jacket off! 　　 His face was cold as he parted his lips. “Maison is going to come over later. Are you planning to sleep next to him like this?” Oh, that was right! Maison was coming over too, so she could totally use Maison as a safety barrier. Xavia lifted the quilt off her body immediately and seemed to be relieved as she said, “I’ll go and take a shower.” Zivon was speechless. She really knew how to guard herself against perverts. Who did she think would want to do anything to her? When Maison learnt that his daddy and mommy were both here, he was smart enough to know that it was Xavia. He did not refuse. Moreover, he decided to shoulder the burden of bringing the both of them together. As soon as he arrived at the old mansion, he kept clamoring that he wanted to sleep with his parents. The people at the old mansion knew that Maison could not sleep away from Zivon, so they naturally did not dare to stop him. Ava also came forward to persuade him but Maison somehow managed to mysteriously convince her. So, at night, the two adults and the child laid on the 1.8 meters wide bed, looking inexplicably intimate. Xavia laid down on her back in a restrained and dull manner. “Aunt, watch me sleep. I want to see you so that I can fall asleep peacefully,” Maison said in a soft voice. Xavia wanted to say that it was quite good for them to sleep in the current way. However, the child petulantly pulled her hand, so she could not bear to refuse him. If she refused, it would show that she was thinking too much. She hummed slightly in response before she turned her body around. She ignored the opposite Zivon and said softly, “It’s late. Go to sleep quickly.” Maison nodded. He closed his eyes obediently and went to sleep. His pink and beautiful face looked very adorable. However, just two seconds after sleeping, Maison opened his eyes again and curiously asked, “Daddy, Aunt, many children say that a woman will get pregnant if a man kisses her. Is that true?” It was already the 21st century. Were there still people who taught children like this? Xavia said, “Of course not. People won’t get pregnant from kissing. Don’t listen to children’s nonsense. Everything should be based on scientific knowledge.” “Oh. Aunt, how can anyone get pregnant and give birth to a baby then?” His rhetorical question was very innocent but it was also extremely awkward. Xavia had an embarrassed look on her face. How… How was she going to explain it to him? “Aunt, why aren’t you saying anything?” The curious Maison asked Zivon again, “Daddy, why don’t you tell me then? How can a person get pregnant and give birth to a baby?” Zivon’s eyes fell on Xavia’s small face. Under the dim lights, her cheeks were rosy, her eyes were as bright as the stars, and her fair face carried the traces of a pure and attractive young girl. He spoke up in a dull voice, “You’ve aroused the child’s curiosity. Do you intend to finish it off without giving him an explanation? Or are you hoping that I’ll teach the child about the knowledge of pregnancy?” It was a faint question with profound meaning.
