Xavier’s POV

We froze on the spot, the hot coffe on my back hurts like shit but I must take it in if I want to win this pretty lady’s heart. “A-are you okay?” I finally voice out after taking a look at her well curved lips.

If only, if only I could take those pouty lips into my mouth.

She released herself from my grip, I could see her face flush red, wait, is she blushing? Damn, I won there, hehe.

“Oh my goodness! I’m really sorry Mr Xavier! I-” The lady that spilled the coffee fell on her knees, her eyes dropping tears.

“No, no, it’s not any one’s fault. You both didn’t see it coming,” I implored while Camille looked at my back, she bit her lower lips feeling bad.

Yeah, I can’t lie but I love the look on her face.

“A-re you fine? Does it hurt a lot? Why did you get in the way huh?” She asked worriedly taking a look at the bruises.

His face was plain, probably he didn’t hear Camille well? “You can’t do this Camille,” He protested while Camille snarled.“If you’re not comfortable with it, you can get the fuck out of this place.

I’m fully prepared for her ass.“If you think you can just buy the company anyhow you like, in your dreams! Diego used his might to build this company with his grandma! How dare you shamelessly try to take it from him!” Tiana snapped and I chuckle. Is she trying to lecture me about shame? Then what should I call her? “That’s so rich coming from someone her father transferred her shares to me earlier today,” I announced and she squinted her eyes, taken aback by the news she had just heard.“W-what..”I gasped in sarcasm, “Seems like Tiana Shawn has lost her ability to blabber, isn’t it? Didn’t your ‘father’ informed you before coming here?” I fired at her, she was fuming with anger within herself but do I care?I still remember it vividly how she kick my tummy that da

We already talked about this… I’m not going to say or suspect anyone until I find proof,” I warned him with a snarl and he cautioned himself.“I’m sorry,” Mike mutters, I breathed in and walked towards him.“I know you’re worried about me but we have to take things slow as well, We might be wrong,” I suggested then suddenly remember
