âZivon, youâre messing with us, rightâĶ?â Looking at everyone with extremely determined eyes, Zivon then replied, âIt really wasnât me, Grandma. As proof, why donât you announce the name of the designer, Uncle Larry?â Zivon himself had a hunch of who had submitted that proposal, and he was keen on finding out if he was right. âVery well, Young Master Burton,â replied Larry as he flipped the design sheet aroundâĶ revealing the name Xavia Lockhart! âM-My godâĶ! Xavia designed that?!â exclaimed Helen as her eyes widened in shock. Even the others were shocked as they started saying things like, âH-How is this possible?!â âHow could a hillbilly like her possibly design such a masterpieceâĶ!â âThatâs definitely not her designâĶ! There must be some sort of misunderstandingâĶ!â growled the infuriated Jenna who was jealous and dissatisfied beyond words. How ironic. After giving Jenna a short glare, Zivon commanded, âGo get Xavia over, Uncle Larry.â âRight away,â replied the butler a

His words were filled with admiration and praise, and this was honestly the first time the other Burtons had ever heard him praise someone this way! With that in mind, everyone quickly began praising her as well. âItâs a splendid concept! We were all left utterly shocked in awe when we first saw it!â âThe youngsters truly are getting bolder with their imagination and designs! Well done!â âAs they say, each generation will eventually get better than the last, and this is a textbook example of that!â Listening to all their compliments, Xavia could finally feel her grievancesâof previously being called a plagiaristâstart to melt away. She had finally proven her capabilities and worth to everyone! Feeling a slight lump in her throat, Xavia eventually said, ââĶThank you for your recognition, everyoneâĶ I simply happened to think of that concept, thatâs allâĶâ After saying that, Xavia looked slightly apprehensive as she turned to look at Ava. Taking a deep breath, she eventually mus

With that in mind, Xavia remained calm as she retorted, ââĶHad you not forced me to give birth to that child back then, there wouldnât have been any chance of me replacing you. Had you not f*cked Keith and gotten your video leaked out, I wouldnât have had to appear before the Burtons. And lastly, had you not stolen my design before this, I wouldnât have designed such a masterpiece that would end up aweing everyoneâĶâ âCome to think of it, I guess I should be the one thanking you instead, sister,â concluded Xavia. âYouâĶ!â roared Jenna as she lifted her hand to slap her! However, Xavia caught Jenna by the wrist before saying, âAs I said before, never hit me again. That aside, if you truly want things to remain peaceful for you, then stop while you can. Just because Iâm not pursuing your theft now, doesnât mean that I wonât do it later. Now, if youâll excuse meâĶ Actually, thereâs one last thingâĶ You look hideous when youâre angry.â After saying all that, Xavia then smiled before cal

The way his deep voice said it suggested that he was actually saying, âCanât you say something sweet to me for once?â Understanding that, Xavia instantly felt her heart tense up. It was always like this whenever they metâĶ He simply had an irresistible charm that not everyone could resistâĶ Thankfully, Xavia knew the consequences of playing along, so she simply pursed her lips before lowering her head as she said, ââĶTruth be told, there is something else Iâd like to say to youâĶâ âGo onâĶâ replied Zivon in a gentle tone as he tenderly lifted a few stray strands of hair on her face before tucking them behind her earâĶ Since her contract with Keith was already over, Zivon had assumed that it was high time that she began talking about the both of them instead. To his dismayâĶ ââĶI already have the answer to your previous question. WeâĶ Just arenât compatible with each otherâĶâ Upon hearing that, Zivonâs gentle expression instantly tensed up, and he began exuding his usual pressuring au

It almost seemed like anyone who got too close would get frozen to deathâĶ! Xavia herself took quite a while before she was able to break free from her paralysis. However, the second she snapped out of it, she instantly felt gloomy. She had honestly been eager to clear things up with him from the very start of the week, but now that she had actually done it, she didnât feel any pleasure or relief at all. All there was, was a heaviness in her heartâĶ At that moment, she wondered why this hadnât happened when she was eighteenâĶ At the time, she mightâve had the courage to place her trust in him moreâĶ Moving back to Zivon, he had a frigid aura surrounding him throughout his walk back to his private courtyardâĶ When Nathan saw him, he hurriedly ran up to Zivon before saying, âIâve already prepared the gift, Young Master. Do have a look!â Zivon, for one, had made preparations for the green space project yesterday. Even if Xavia hadnât come up with an outstanding proposal, he still h

Unfortunately for Hartley, Zivon simply stared at both of them for a long while before saying, ââĶThat was a good move indeed. I really didnât know your assistant was this capable, Keith.â âĶF*ck. Oh god, oh f*ckâĶ! It was all over for himâĶ! As Hartley felt his legs go weak, Keith wasnât faring any better. While Keith was usually able to quickly adapt to situations, even he was feeling slightly panicked right now. After all, there was no way to explain themselves after scheming against Zivon like thisâĶ! Still, Keith forced himself to maintain his composure as he replied, ââĶI agree that Hartley is loyal and always looks out for me, Uncle ZivonâĶ But-â âLoyal, you say?â interrupted Zivon as he continued walking forwardâĶ before stopping right in front of Keith. Before Keith could reply, Zivon casually said, âThen I guess you donât know that heâs been allowing me to meet Xavia in private in the past seven daysâĶ?â His words momentarily startled KeithâĶ However, that shock quickly tur

After sitting up, the infuriated man growled, âWere you seriously having a tryst behind my back that entire weekâĶ?! One monthâĶ! You couldnât even handle one month without himâĶ?!â Keith was now using enough force to completely twist a personâs arm off, and after letting out a pained grunt, Xavia replied, âY-young Master Keith, please stopâĶ! It hurtsâĶ! Listen to what I have to say firstâĶ!â âWhat is there to listen to?! Pretending to be a good girl before me day in and day out, promising you wouldnât have any further interactions with himâĶ! All that was bullsh*t! What a fool Iâve been! To think that I really believed that youâd stay by my side for at least this one monthâĶ! You and Hartley mustâve found it hilarious to have kept me in the dark all this timeâĶ!â âHave you any idea how mocked I felt when Uncle Zivon gave me that lookâĶ.?! It was like he was saying that both my assistant and woman belonged to himâĶ! Whatâs more, Iâm pretty sure he thinks of me as an oblivious idiot nowâĶ! H

...Why was he calling her out of the blue? And here she thought heâd never contact her again after making things clear with him earlierâĶ Whatever the case was, Xavia was understandably hesitant to pick the call up. As for Hartley, Xaviaâs reaction instantly told him that Zivon was calling, and he couldnât help but feel guilty. After all, Young Master Burtonâs call definitely had something to do with the fake pregnancyâĶ! With that in mind, he was prompted to say, ââĶUmâĶ Miss LockhartâĶ? Now that the young masterâs condition has finally stabilized, could you stop contacting Young Master Burton for a whileâĶ? Just reject the callâĶâ Looking at both Hartley and Keith, Xavia knew that she had to prioritize Keithâs illness. After all, she would only be able to leave once Keith recovered. With that, she was prompted to reply, ââĶAlright, though Iâll be sending him a textâĶâ Following that, she rejected the call before starting to type a message, stating, âSorry, but itâs inconvenient for me

Staring in shock at the kneeling man, Yulia mustered her remaining sanity as she replied, âB-but youâre younger-â âEven if thatâs the case, doesnât that mean that Iâm much more âcapableâ than your older pursuersâĶ?â âĶWhy were his words so suggestive all of a sudden?! Forcing herself to calm down, she took a deep breath before saying, ââĶElliot, Iâm not sure what spurred this decision, butâĶ Iâm not the one for you. Please find someone your age. Iâm sorry.â After saying that, she strode straight for the carâĶ but before she could start the engine, she couldnât help but notice how desolate he looked standing under the pouring rainâĶ Clenching her fists, it took her a while to finally sigh and walk back to himâĶ ââĶAre you really sure about this?â asked Yulia, much to Elliotâs delight. âI am! Please! Give me a chance! You wonât regret it!â âĶWhen he put it that way, all Yulia could do was help him up before finally deciding to return his kissâĶ Sure, things had taken a sudden, unex

She stared in horror as he removed his shirt right there and then! âW-what are you doing?!â yelped the startled woman as she quickly looked the other way. ââĶHuh? I mean, Iâm drenched, soâĶâ âE-even so, you shouldnât change right in front of me!â ââĶYulia, we bathed together as childrenâĶ Itâs not like you havenât seen everything alreadyâĶâ âY-you canât compare that to this situationâĶ!â âFine, fine, IâĶ UmâĶ Go cook, I guessâĶ Iâll go get a change upstairs firstâĶâ 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, andâĶ she even had dreams where he hadâĶ âĶNo! She couldnât be thinking about such things! She needed to cook! Maybe that would help get her mind out of the gutter! Once that was done, sheâd leave and finally start devising a plan to get rid of himâĶ!

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 occasionsâĶ and though she kept rejecting him, he never seemed to get the hint! âThere you are, Miss BurtonâĶ Since youâre off work, I was wondering if youâd join me for dinner tonightâĶâ 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, âOh? Another one of your admirers, YuliaâĶ? Sorry, but she already has a boyfriend, my man. If that doesnât deter you enough, then you should know that she prefers her partners younger. Now please leave.â Startled to hear that, the man glanced at Yulia, his eyes begging for an explanationâĶ Yulia herself was eager to just escape this embarrassing situation, but before s

With that tale done, it was now time to return to Yuliaâs storyâĶ Ever since she was a child, she had undergone countless hardships with her motherâĶ and even after she was able to reunite with her father, things didnât 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 todayâĶ Because of all that, it only made sense that sheâd mature much sooner than others her age, and unlike the naÃŊve 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 interestâĶ Things continued that way untilâĶ Well, that time that ElliotâĶ âĶWait, what was she thinking?!

Knowing that there was no point in keeping things a secret anymore, Rea took a deep breath before saying, ââĶAlright, soâĶ The truth is, Iâve always been highly competent, butâĶ Iâve been pretending to be useless just so that youâd eventually marry meâĶ The trip my parents are takingâĶ That was my suggestion tooâĶâ Feeling speechless, it took Frank a long while to reply, ââĶSo you werenât really drunk when you did all that last night?â Pursing her lips, Rea awkwardly muttered, ââĶI wasnâtâĶ Luna suggested it, and since it sounded like a good idea to accelerate thingsâĶâ âĶFucking 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, âA-anyway, now that weâre married and thereâs potentially a baby in my belly, you wonât divorce me, rightâĶ?â ââĶOh, believe me when I say that divorce is the easy way out!

Fast forward to the next morning, Rea awoke with a yawnâĶ What a nice sleepâĶ Wait. Why was she naked? And why was FrankâĶ?! Her following scream immediately woke the icy man upâĶ 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 restâĶ 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 outâĶ and after rubbing his temples, he was prompted to say, ââĶWhy are you crying when youâre the one who initiated this? Iâll have you know that I never forced you-â âI-I know, butâĶ! Iâve justâĶ! This is my first timeâĶ!â whimpered the quivering woman, prompting Frank to purse his lips.

âSay, wouldnât you agree that the food smells deliciousâĶ? Why donât I teach you how to grill, ReaâĶ? Oh, but make sure to take your clothes off first before we start! Wouldnât want them to get dirtyâĶâ With how drunk Rea was, she wasnât able to fully register his wordsâĶ and just as he was about to touch her clothes, an icy voice roared, âStop right thereâĶ!â Instantly feeling a shiver run down his spine, the man turned aroundâĶ and to his horror, it was Frank! Young Master Burtonâs perpetually icy sonâĶ! Why the hell was he here?! Before the frightened intern could think of how to even react, Frank walked up to him and growled, âLeave now before I chop your hands offâĶ! Donât make me repeat myself!â Nodding in terror, the man frantically bolted offâĶ and once he was out of sight, Frank glared at the tipsy Rea before adding, âThis is what you meant by learning how to be more responsibleâĶ?!â âHuhâĶ? But the food really did smell super goodâĶ I want to learnâĶâ 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, butâĶ It had already been half an hour since she disappeared. What trouble had that idiot gotten herself into this time? Thankfully, it wasnât long before he found her laughing along with some of his internsâĶ When the interns saw him, they were quick to bow and say, âGood morning, Mr. Burton.â Barely even glancing at them, Frank looked at Rea and said, âItâs time to head home.â âIâĶ Wonât be following you backâĶâ ââĶAnd why is that? Are your parents back?â âNo, itâs justâĶ These are my good friends back from school, and theyâve been staying together to learn to be more independentâĶ With that saidâĶ I think that staying with them will be a good start for me to learn more about how the world works.

Regardless, after leaving her in the room, Frank returned to the shower to cool himself offâĶ but no matter what he did, he simply remained irked. It got to the point where he couldnât relax at all, and after wrapping a towel around his waist, he grabbed his phone to send his father a text. âWas there really nobody else who couldâve taken care of Rea?â âWhat? Canât even care for a woman properly.â âIâm a busy man.â âI trust in your time management skills.â âĶThough he really wanted to tell Zivon that he had misplaced his trust in him, he didnât want to disappoint his father either. With that, all he could do was clench his fists before giving Reaâs parents a callâĶ âHello? Frank?
