He lived in the Burton Mansion for decades.

He knew all the vicious troublemakers inside very well.

If they were not careful, things would be beyond redemption.

He hoped that he would be able to protect her thoroughly.

In the hall.

The Burton family’s relatives were already seated inside the hall.

Lady Ava Burton was sitting at the highest position.

The senior generation, Zivon’s father, mother, two aunts, and uncles, were on the right.

Zivon’s brothers and sisters, who were from his generation, were on the left.

When they saw that the both of them had finally arrived, they teased them. “Zivon, Jenna, if you hadn’t arrived now, the tea would have already turned cold.”

“That’s right. When we used to perform the tea ceremony, we would have already come to wait here at six o’clock in the morning.”

“Young people like you guys clearly do not pay much attention to customs and etiquette.”

What they were implying was that they were not showing any respect to their elders.

    Xavia smiled brightly.“Grandma, serving tea has been a custom ever since ancient times. So, we will definitely have to serve you tea as a form of respect. Isn’t there an old saying that the tea served by a daughter-in-law is twice as sweet?”Xavia poured a cup of tea before she walked over to Ava and knelt down on both knees.“Grandma, please have some tea.”She looked very well-behaved and she had the perfect posture. She was also filled with sincerity.And on the contrary, it made it seem as though she also valued customs and respected her elders. Ava could not stop smiling happily. “Good, good, you’re really a good daughter-in-law. You’re really very likable.”Ava took the cup of tea before taking a sip of it. “It’s very sweet indeed. Here. This is grandma’s wedding gift to you and Zivon.”The butler who was standing on the side took out an antique box and handed it over.The people who were seated were all surprised. Those were the antiques that Lady Burton had been c

    No one dared to say a word anymore.Zivon stood still in place as he watched the good show from the beginning to the end without saying a single word. His deep gaze fell on Xavia who was secretly smirking and he raised the brows on his handsome face slightly. Other people might be thinking that she was simply being humble, but Zivon knew that she clearly did it intentionally. She did not only resolve the problem of them being late, but she also turned the tables on them. He suddenly felt that the small and pure Xavia was also actually very mature, wise, and cunning. It seemed as though he had seriously underestimated her.After that, Xavia served tea to Zivon’s father and mother. She was once again very well-behaved.Hershel was very pleasant and friendly, and it was very easy to get along with him. “Not bad. I used to think that you are a little too career-driven and cold, but I really did not expect you to actually be so sensible and well-behaved. Have a good life wi

    After walking out of the old mansion, Xavia took a deep breath of fresh air. After that, she looked at Zivon who was seated in the driver’s seat.“Young master, can we go on a honeymoon?”Honeymoon?Loving couples would always go on a trip and honeymoon after their wedding.However, Zivon had never once considered it. He looked at her inquiringly with a profound look in his eyes.“Reason?”Xavia said, “Because my instinct tells me that your family is too frightening. They’re able to find so many things to say for a simple tea ceremony. I cannot imagine what they would say for other events.”“Besides that, I received so many gifts from your grandmother. Those aunts, uncles, and brothers of yours hate me to the core and I am certain that they are going to be finding fault with me.”Xavia’s previous wit had already faded at this moment and only helplessness remained.Her timid character as an ordinary girl was showing to the fullest at this point.Zivon could not help but laugh.

    The car was parked in the underground parking lot in a luxurious villa area.Zivon brought Xavia to a villa and he raised his brows slightly. “Where do you think this is?”Xavia did not know.However, growing up in the countryside, she heard that the bride and groom would have to return to the bride’s parental home the day after the wedding. So, this upscale villa was…“The Lockhart Mansion?”Zivon hummed slightly. “You look so surprised. You haven’t been to your own house before?”Xavia did not deny it. She had been sent away as soon as she was born. When she came to Darlsbury at the age of eighteen, she went to the hospital to see her eldest brother but the accident happened the night before she could go home…Her family home turned out to be so luxurious and extravagant.However, this luxury had nothing to do with her at all.She finally understood now. The thing that he said that she should be worried about, was the Lockhart family!After all, her mother and father ha

    Why should she be bothered with him if he was so heartless to her?Kevin really did not expect this girl from the countryside to actually dare to yell at him.He thought of something immediately and he sneered. “Sure enough, you have never treated us as your own family and you have never regarded me as your own biological brother from the beginning to the end! Otherwise, how can you say such words and how could you run away just like that back then?”What?They were the ones who have never treated her like family, weren’t they?They really knew how to cover up their own misdeed by pushing the responsibility onto others.Xavia was puzzled and she asked, “When did I run away?”Kevin did not want to mention the incident back then and he did not want to be bothered with her. So, he said coldly, “Come back. You can stay in the Burton family in the future after today and we will not have anything to do with each other anymore.”What he meant to say was that he would never trouble h

    The people downstairs heard the commotion and they quickly got up and ran upstairs.Xavia suddenly ran over to Jenna and she squatted on the ground anxiously as she grabbed Jenna’s shoulders. “Jenna? Jenna?”“You can hear what I am saying, right?”Since Jenna could hear her, then it should be useful to stimulate her like she did just now!Xavia pursed her lips and said again, “I’m serious! Zivon Burton is not a warm and gentle or romantic boyfriend but he has a good figure, good looks, good temperament and he is exceptionally good at his job too.”“You might not know this but I slept with him in your bridal room last night. He pulled me into his arms and he was loving and affectionate toward me throughout the whole night. My legs are still soft now.”“Maybe I will be pregnant in another month. At that time, regardless of whether it’s him, your status as a princess, your fame, or your fortune, it will all belong to me then.”“You cannot imagine it, right? You hate me the most b

    “Xavia Lockhart, why are you acting so crazily?”Was she crazy?In her current state, she really wanted to go insane!He was the ultimate culprit who made her fall into this completely embarrassing and powerless situation.He must be an unlucky man that God had sent from heaven to punish her!Xavia walked toward the outside angrily and she did not want to be bothered with him at all.Because she was too angry, she did not notice that it was the curve in the underground parking lot in front of her. Every car entering the parking lot would have to pass through this curve!And the curve was a blind spot!A tall jeep drove in without seeing Xavia in the corner and it turned straight around the corner!“Damn it!” Zivon narrowed his eyes as he cursed in a low voice!He took a step forward and rushed over there before he hugged the woman and pressed her against the wall inside.Boom!Screech!The emergency brake sounded. Xavia was shocked and frightened. She looked back, only t

    No, no, no.Why would he feel sorry for her?He probably simply did not want anything to happen to her because she was playing the role of his wife, right?Or perhaps he was afraid that he would make another move against Jenna?Well, that should be the case. Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the hospital.Xavia felt that her wound was not serious. “This small wound is not a problem. I will go back and apply some medication on it and wait for it to heal on its own. I want to go and see Yulia first.”“No.” Zivon took her small wrist in his large and slender hand as he walked toward a certain department. His palm was broad and warm, and after holding a pen all year round, there were slight calluses on his hand, which was the mark of a mature man.Xavia’s palms were sweating slightly. This was especially so when she saw that he was holding her hand as if they were a real couple, which made her feel even more flustered and embarrassed.“I want to take a look at the time.” Af

    Staring in shock at the kneeling man, Yulia mustered her remaining sanity as she replied, “B-but you’re younger-” “Even if that’s the case, doesn’t that mean that I’m much more ‘capable’ than your older pursuers…?” …Why were his words so suggestive all of a sudden?! Forcing herself to calm down, she took a deep breath before saying, “…Elliot, I’m not sure what spurred this decision, but… I’m not the one for you. Please find someone your age. I’m sorry.” After saying that, she strode straight for the car… but before she could start the engine, she couldn’t help but notice how desolate he looked standing under the pouring rain… Clenching her fists, it took her a while to finally sigh and walk back to him… “…Are you really sure about this?” asked Yulia, much to Elliot’s delight. “I am! Please! Give me a chance! You won’t regret it!” …When he put it that way, all Yulia could do was help him up before finally deciding to return his kiss… Sure, things had taken a sudden, unex

    She stared in horror as he removed his shirt right there and then! “W-what are you doing?!” yelped the startled woman as she quickly looked the other way. “…Huh? I mean, I’m drenched, so…” “E-even so, you shouldn’t change right in front of me!” “…Yulia, we bathed together as children… It’s not like you haven’t seen everything already…” “Y-you can’t compare that to this situation…!” “Fine, fine, I… Um… Go cook, I guess… I’ll go get a change upstairs first…” muttered Elliot as he headed upstairs. Yulia herself had to try her best to calm down! After all, Elliot had been plaguing her mind in the past few days, and… she even had dreams where he had… …No! She couldn’t be thinking about such things! She needed to cook! Maybe that would help get her mind out of the gutter! Once that was done, she’d leave and finally start devising a plan to get rid of him…! As Yulia scurried off, Elliot himself was currently staring at an old photo that showed him eating some candy in Yulia’

    Just as she had arrived at her car, the president of the Halls Group suddenly walked up to her, a bouquet in hand! The Halls Group had collaborated several times with the Burtons before, and because of that, she was well acquainted with the man. Sadly, he had also proposed to her on multiple occasions… and though she kept rejecting him, he never seemed to get the hint! “There you are, Miss Burton… Since you’re off work, I was wondering if you’d join me for dinner tonight…” asked the charming man. Feeling awkward, she was just about to come up with an excuse when Elliot suddenly grabbed her by the waist and said, “Oh? Another one of your admirers, Yulia…? Sorry, but she already has a boyfriend, my man. If that doesn’t deter you enough, then you should know that she prefers her partners younger. Now please leave.” Startled to hear that, the man glanced at Yulia, his eyes begging for an explanation… Yulia herself was eager to just escape this embarrassing situation, but before s

    With that tale done, it was now time to return to Yulia’s story… Ever since she was a child, she had undergone countless hardships with her mother… and even after she was able to reunite with her father, things didn’t go much easier from there. To make matters worse, Fabiola ended up getting kidnapped for the longest time, resulting in Frank ending up the way he was today… Because of all that, it only made sense that she’d mature much sooner than others her age, and unlike the naïve girl she used to be, she was an extremely competent woman today. Alas, because of how used she became with working, she soon lost the urge to find herself a romantic interest… Things continued that way until… Well, that time that Elliot… …Wait, what was she thinking?! He was younger than her, for heaven’s sake! Quickly shaking her head, she attempted to force herself to concentrate on work again… But before long, a knock was heard on the door. After being allowed in, the department manager entered t

    Knowing that there was no point in keeping things a secret anymore, Rea took a deep breath before saying, “…Alright, so… The truth is, I’ve always been highly competent, but… I’ve been pretending to be useless just so that you’d eventually marry me… The trip my parents are taking… That was my suggestion too…” Feeling speechless, it took Frank a long while to reply, “…So you weren’t really drunk when you did all that last night?” Pursing her lips, Rea awkwardly muttered, “…I wasn’t… Luna suggested it, and since it sounded like a good idea to accelerate things…” …Fucking hell, to think that he had fallen straight into her trap without even putting up a fight! Watching as he glowered at her, Rea gulped before adding, “A-anyway, now that we’re married and there’s potentially a baby in my belly, you won’t divorce me, right…?” “…Oh, believe me when I say that divorce is the easy way out! From today onward, I’m making you pay for your actions for the rest of your life!” Fast forwa

    Fast forward to the next morning, Rea awoke with a yawn… What a nice sleep… Wait. Why was she naked? And why was Frank…?! Her following scream immediately woke the icy man up… and upon looking at her, he was immediately reminded of what had transpired last night! Essentially, Rea ended up clinging to him, and though he initially wanted to just carry her to bed to let her rest… Damn it! Had she really been that sensual?! How had he lost control so easily?! His train of thought was cut short when he realized that Rea was bawling her eyes out… and after rubbing his temples, he was prompted to say, “…Why are you crying when you’re the one who initiated this? I’ll have you know that I never forced you-” “I-I know, but…! I’ve just…! This is my first time…!” whimpered the quivering woman, prompting Frank to purse his lips. As if he wasn’t in the same situation… “…You’re not alone there.” “It’s not the same! Men are free to sleep with whoever they want but when it comes to women, I’l

    “Say, wouldn’t you agree that the food smells delicious…? Why don’t I teach you how to grill, Rea…? Oh, but make sure to take your clothes off first before we start! Wouldn’t want them to get dirty…” With how drunk Rea was, she wasn’t able to fully register his words… and just as he was about to touch her clothes, an icy voice roared, “Stop right there…!” Instantly feeling a shiver run down his spine, the man turned around… and to his horror, it was Frank! Young Master Burton’s perpetually icy son…! Why the hell was he here?! Before the frightened intern could think of how to even react, Frank walked up to him and growled, “Leave now before I chop your hands off…! Don’t make me repeat myself!” Nodding in terror, the man frantically bolted off… and once he was out of sight, Frank glared at the tipsy Rea before adding, “This is what you meant by learning how to be more responsible…?!” “Huh…? But the food really did smell super good… I want to learn…” mumbled the drunk woman.

    After leaving his office, he headed off to look for Rea. She had said that she wanted to use the bathroom, but… It had already been half an hour since she disappeared. What trouble had that idiot gotten herself into this time? Thankfully, it wasn’t long before he found her laughing along with some of his interns… When the interns saw him, they were quick to bow and say, “Good morning, Mr. Burton.” Barely even glancing at them, Frank looked at Rea and said, “It’s time to head home.” “I… Won’t be following you back…” “…And why is that? Are your parents back?” “No, it’s just… These are my good friends back from school, and they’ve been staying together to learn to be more independent… With that said… I think that staying with them will be a good start for me to learn more about how the world works. Thank you for taking care of me up till this point, Frank… I won’t bother you anymore.” Raising a slight brow, Frank then looked at the interns for a while before saying, “…Are you

    Regardless, after leaving her in the room, Frank returned to the shower to cool himself off… but no matter what he did, he simply remained irked. It got to the point where he couldn’t relax at all, and after wrapping a towel around his waist, he grabbed his phone to send his father a text. ‘Was there really nobody else who could’ve taken care of Rea?’ ‘What? Can’t even care for a woman properly.’ ‘I’m a busy man.’ ‘I trust in your time management skills.’ …Though he really wanted to tell Zivon that he had misplaced his trust in him, he didn’t want to disappoint his father either. With that, all he could do was clench his fists before giving Rea’s parents a call… “Hello? Frank? Why are you calling at this time of night?” “…When are you and Uncle Saltman returning, Aunt?” asked Frank who wanted them to take back their idiot already! “…Huh? What was that? Sorry, the line isn’t very good… I hope Rea isn’t giving you too hard a time! Don’t worry, we’ll be back after about a
