When the people around them noticed Xavierâs dashing looks, they couldnât help gossiping.
âIt sure is nice to be goodâlooking. He has a sugar mommy even though heâs blind.â
âWhat makes you think sheâs the sugar mommy? I think she looks great too.â
âThatâs true. So, is he the sugar daddy instead? Why would she even want a blind man?â
A few women were carefully discussing among themselves while they were shopping. Xavier could hear them clearly. When he heard them calling him blind repeatedly, he started to get furious.
âYvvy, please excuse me for a second.â
âDo you need my help?â Yvette asked.
âNo.â
He tried going out by himself. He had memorized the path, and all he was worried about was walking into someone else.
A female staff member immediately approached him to help him. She asked flatteringly, âWhere are you going, sir? Let me help you, alright?â
The smile on her face didnât last very long as he pushed her away and growled, âGet lost.â
The staff member was so startled that she lost her balance while stepping back and fell to the ground.
The whole place became silent as all eyes turned to them, even Yvetteâs. It had been a long time since sheâs seen him lose his temper. In fact, it was the first time heâd acted like this since heâd lost his
memories.
She immediately approached the staff member and helped the latter stand up. âPlease excuse him. He doesnât like it when strangers touch him.â
The staff member was so terrified that she only returned to her senses after a long time. âItâs alright.â
Then, Yvette grabbed Xavierâs arm. her?â
âWe with you? Canât you use your words? Why did you push
Heâd felt extremely uncomfortable when the staff member had touched him earlier. After hearing what Yvette said, he felt even more upset. âI didnât push her. just removed her hand from me.â
âEven so, you have to be a gentleman, alright?â Yvette said softly.
âSure,â he answered unwillingly. He didnât understand how he wasnât already being a gentleman.
After he walked out of the shop, he took off his jacket and tossed it in the trash can at the side. Then, he made a call.
A short while later, the manager of the store pretended to be nice while kicking out the women whoâd been gossiping about Xavier earlier. Since Yvette was busy choosing the gifts, she didnât notice what had happened.
When she was about to pay, the manager politely said, Mr. Lane has already paid for everything. Iâll

Yvette looked at Xavier, who was resting in the lounge, and wondered where heâd gotten the money to pay for everything. She walked to him and asked, âArenât you broke?â
Xavier had already prepared what to say. âHow could I make you pay when itâs my brotherâs engagement? I used the money Iâd saved before. Itâs nothing compared to my debt.â
After hearing that, Yvette said nothing else.
It took the whole day for them to finish buying everything. When they were on their way home in a cab, Yvette was exhausted, and she leaned against the window.
âRemember, Xavier. You owe me a favor now.â
She didnât want to silently contribute to things for him. Instead, she wanted to say everything sheâd done and get him to pay her back. Xavier pulled her into his arms and said, âYeah. I got it.â
It started snowing heavily outside again. Yvette was so tired that she let him hold her however he wanted. Xavier felt great as he held her soft body. However, since he was blind, he couldnât see her expression or tell how she was feeling at that moment.
âWhy would they want to have an engagement now? After all, the year has just started, and everyone is so busy,â she casually asked.
He held her tighter and said, âMaybe theyâre planning to get married shortly after their engagement.â
Yvette was so tired that she didnât want to think too much about it anymore.
âBy the way, who is his fiancée?â
âThe daughter of the Yandell family, Zoey.â
