Yvette didnât want to deal with Xavier. She angrily covered herself under the blanket, leaving him to lie at the side. âIf you want to sleep here, do it like that.â
Shortly after the lights were out, she fell asleep. When he heard her breathing steadily, he pulled her into
his arms.
When Yvette woke up the next day, she bumped her head on his strong chest. She slowly opened her eyes and looked up.
The moment her eyes landed on Xavierâs dashing face, she anxiously got up from his embrace. When she was sure that he wasnât awake, she immediately put on her robe and got out of bed.
Right when Yvette opened the bedroom door, she noticed that Viola was awake as well. The latter looked at her kindly. âCome here, Yvvy. I want to talk to you.â
Yvette felt embarrassed because she knew that Viola definitely had misunderstood the situation. After she followed Viola back to the latterâs room, she hurriedly explained, âHe was the one who wouldnât leave last night. We did nothing at all.â
âYvvy, you donât have to explain it to me. I just wanted to tell you that Iâd support your decision, no matter what.â
Yvette nodded. Viola couldnât help adding, âActually, Iâve noticed how Xavier really has changed. So, it wonât be that bad for you to stay with him.
âItâs always nice to be with the people whoâve been with us since the beginning. Besides, you both have children together too.â
Yvette silently listened to Viola. She didnât know how to reply to that. Instead, she said, âIâll think about it, so donât worry. Dr. Upton will be here later. You should get more rest in the meantime.
âSure.â
When they were done chatting, Yvette went out to call Gideon. By the time she was done with that, Xavier woke up and went downstairs. âYvvy.â
She didnât want to talk to him, so she purposely kept quiet and didnât respond to him at all.
Xavier frowned slightly, appearing cold. He thought Yvette had gone out, so he returned to his room. Then, Yvette finally got up to freshen up. 1
After a while, she heard the doorbell. Thinking that Gideon had arrived, Yvette hurriedly opened the door. Then, she saw Kiki looking around with a backpack.
âKiki? Why are you here?â Yvette was confused. âWhereâs Zac?â
âMy dad kicked me out last night. Zac should be looking after the Torresâ family business with him now.â
It turned out that Michael didnât just like Zachary enough to call him by his nickname intimately; heâd even planned on writing his will and having Zachary inherit all of his assets.
After saying that, Kiki softly asked, âWhereâs Xavier?â

She hadnât come all the way here to ask for a place to stay. Instead, sheâd only wanted to take a look at Xavier. She was curious how the former CEO looked now that he was blind.
Yvette turned around and pointed at Xavierâs room. âHeâs in his bedroom.â
âIâm going to take a look.â Kiki dropped her bag and walked to Xavierâs room like she was looking at a rare animal.
Before she reached the room, the door was opened from the inside, and a tall man walked out. âDo we have a guest, Yvvy?â
Kiki stood near him at that moment, and she noticed that his eyes didnât look that abnormal.
However, she couldnât help gasping when she saw that he really couldnât see. Seeing how heâd become blind and received his karma, she felt great.
Before Yvette could say anything, Kiki said, âHello, Iâm Yvvyâs best friend, Kiki Torres. You once sent me to the police station before. Do you remember it?â
When he heard her, he returned to his usual cold self. âNo.â
Kiki was stunned, wondering why Xavier was still so illâtempered. After all, Viola had told her that heâd changed.
