So it wasn’t that Zivon wouldn’t give her a house… he just wouldn’t give her that one.

Jenna immediately became curious. “What is the significance of the house to the young master?”

“Madam, that's a sensitive topic. Normally, I wouldn’t dare mention it, and Young Master Burton gets angry even if the old lady mentions it, so it’s best if you don’t pry anymore.”

Sensitive topic? Zivon would get angry even if his grandmother brought it up?

Jenna smirked, her gaze sinister. “Alright, I got it.”

After she ended the call with Nathan, she gave Xavia a call. “Zivon seems to be busy; he said he’d give me a reply in two weeks. I can’t do anything more on my side, so if you and Bianca can’t wait, just go over there and talk to him in person. I don’t mind, after all, since it’s my fault I can’t help.”

Xavia frowned. Why was Jenna being so nice and reasonable all of a sudden? Xavia felt it was strange, but they couldn’t afford to wait two weeks. “Okay. Don’t worry—I’ll only be talking abou

    The bright atmosphere in the office suddenly turned tense.Xavia’s wrist was still in Zivon’s grip, and the warmth of his hand felt like fire against her skin. Outrage swept through her and she struggled to break free.Zivon got straight to the point, his dark eyes fixed on her: “Go ahead…tell me what you want from me.” Xavia looked up at him furiously.Was this man incapable of talking like a normal person? He had to drag her into the office and close the door? It made her think that he was going to forcefully kiss her again…Ew, what was she thinking?!Quickly pushing away those thoughts, she handed him her file and said briskly, “I need this house. Can you rent it or sell it to me?” A house?Zivon raised his eyebrows in surprise. He took the file from her, sat down on the sofa, and opened it. Instantly, his gentle expression turned stormy, and his voice was frigid as he asked, “Did Jenna send you here?” It didn’t take a genius to tell that the man was enraged.Xavia did

    What?Break up with Keith?!Xavia was not the only one who was stunned, and even Nathan was staring at Zivon in disbelief.Nathan knew best what that old house meant to Zivon. No one dared to take even half a step into that house, but now, Zivon was actually willing to give it up to Xavia? And he even wanted her to break up with Keith?Didn't that mean that in Zivon’s heart, Xavia was more important than the feelings he had for the old house?Xavia was speechless for a while, but eventually raised her head to look up at Zivon's handsome face. Her eyes met his dark ones, and she hesitantly asked, “Can I… change the conditions?” Zivon’s lip curled into a sneer, and he scoffed, “If Keith is so important to you, why did you come looking for me? Why don’t you just ask him to give it to you, hmm?” Xavia really wanted to—she would definitely rather ask Keith than Zivon!Of all the houses in Darlsbury, why did this house have to be the one that most fit the bill?Her silence further

    The man standing there was wearing a light-colored suit, a bouquet of flowers in his hand. His gaze was tender and affectionate.When he saw Xavia, his lips curved into a warm smile, and he walked towards her. “What was it that you couldn’t do? Do you need my help?” How could Xavia tell him about what happened with Zivon?“It’s nothing, just a small problem. Young Master, why are you here?” He hadn’t told her he’d be coming.Keith’s eyes instantly darkened. Before coming, he had received a text from Jenna, so he already knew about the house. However, Xavia clearly wasn’t willing to tell him about it… Was it because she felt her interactions with Zivon were not appropriate?Choosing to not mention that, he said, “It's only natural that I would come pick you up from work. I’ve sent my secretary to pick up the kids, and we’re going to watch a movie tonight.” This was the third time he brought up watching a movie together, so Xavia could not refuse. Moreover, there was an underly

    “Zivon, do you want to know what it is?” Zivon glared at him icily, then growled, “If you have something to say, just say it.”“Okay, okay! Don’t look at me like that, I’ll tell you.” Zayne took a deep breath and said seriously, “I heard from one of his friends that Keith spent a lot of money to buy flowers and a heart-shaped gemstone necklace to pursue Xavia… but aren’t they already dating? Don’t you think something fishy is going on here?”Keith was trying to pursue Xavia Lockhart? It did not make sense at all.However, when he thought about how Xavia had acted, and how Keith had texted him asking for the house, Zivon took a sip of his wine and said casually, “That’s just his idea of romance, what’s so fishy about it?” His attitude was just too cold.Zayne frowned. “What’s with you? Didn’t you say that you wanted to know how you offended her? Now you don’t want to know anything about her anymore? In my opinion, it’s better you don’t worry about things like this and spend more

    “…And that is her kindness…” Despite Zivon’s silence, Ava simply added, “I still remember back when she saved us on that mountain without the slightest regard for her own safety… She didn’t even ask for any payment after that, and that makes her truly kind… The fact that she’s remained devoted to you—even after all these years of you treating her coldly—just solidifies my words…” “Though you grew up with wealth and dignity, your heart remained cold… Before I move on, I truly hope that you’ll have someone to warm, move, and make you feel loved… Please remain by Jenna’s side till the very end…” concluded the old lady who spoke with a heavy heart… Understandably, her statement instantly made Zivon feel much more burdened. After all, he used to think that his grandmother imposed everything for the sake of the family. To think that… Whatever the case was, it was late at night when the old woman finally left Zivon’s silent room, leaving the atmosphere extremely pressuring… However,

    Feeling increasingly nervous as she looked into his angry eyes, the anxious Xavia attempted to explain, “…It was Bianca’s idea… For context, I first contacted Jenna and only headed over when she said that there were no problems with it. Before heading over, I even went to your office first, hoping to get you to follow me there. Unfortunately, you weren’t in… All in all, I wasn’t trying to hide this from you or anything…” The more carefully she tried to explain it, the guiltier she felt about her relationship with Zivon. Regardless, Keith simply adjusted his glasses as he replied, “Contact him less from now on. Just come to me if you have any other problems.” “…Alright…” replied Xavia with a slight frown as she watched Keith re-enter his room… How odd… Why was she being so cautious just to explain herself…? Whatever the case was, she then took a deep breath before returning to her own room to continue looking through the information that Bianca had compiled. Since it was impossi

    ‘Since you understand that you’re nothing to me, why would I ever be angry at Maison because of you?’ …An utterly ruthless response… The text alone was capable of sending chills down anyone’s spine… Whatever the case was, Xavia’s face instantly went pale after reading that. True enough, why on earth would she ever affect how he treated Maison? She had once again been full of herself! Saddened by this, she then placed her phone back where it was before draping her blankets over herself to try to sleep… However, it wasn’t long after before her message notification rang again. Though Xavia attempted to ignore it, she eventually couldn’t help herself from grabbing her phone and pulling it under the sheets with her… Upon reading the message, however, she couldn’t help but widen her eyes in surprise. ‘I can give you the house. Just come over tomorrow.’ …What? He was willing to do that? Actually, hold on. That wasn’t the most important thing here! Having mixed feelings about all t

    The house itself had the complete farmhouse look, with earthen walls, wooden windows, and even green tiles. It truly was crafted as traditionally as it could get. As for the yard, multiple beautiful plants filled the area—that was surrounded by wooden fences—, with even an ancient-looking well located near the corner. Everything seemed extremely lively… However, the most eye-catching thing there was the thousand-year acacia tree that grew on the right side of the yard… Despite its age, its leaves grew prosperously, and its trunk was thick. The fact that the tree’s branches even extended over the house truly gave the place a unique and rustic appearance… It all just felt like a hidden land where everything was perfect… And that was no exaggeration. Xavia herself finally understood why Bianca kept insisting on gaining access to this house… Xavia’s train of thought was cut short when she heard a polite voice say, “Miss Jourdain… Miss Lockhart…” Turning around, Xavia saw that the

    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
