Xavier stared sharply at the woman who had been glancing at him."What?"Just one simple word, yet for some reason, Audi could feel an uneasy atmosphere enveloping her as that sentence came out of Xavier's mouth."N-nothing. I'm just looking for ideas. This job is getting monotonous. I need to find references by looking around."Audi made an excuse. Xavier's intense gaze was quite terrifying for her.She seemed nervous, hoping that he wouldn't delve into his questions any further."Thank goodness. That intimidating gaze stops here."Audi sighed in relief. She felt grateful that he didn't prolong the conversation.Audi's anger subsided. Despite feeling annoyed with his behavior of giving her a box filled with expectations, when faced with such a gaze, her courage dwindled."Where?"Lost in her anger, Audi immediately shifted her gaze to Xavier. "Huh? Where? Where what?"She looked confused. Suddenly, he said those words."The revisions from the files earlier. Where are they? I'll check
Phone calls even reached Xavier's mobile, prompting him to immediately turn the screen back on."Audi?""Argh! Help me, Xavier!"The man appeared torn. Simultaneously, Audi sought his assistance.With no other option, Xavier reluctantly had to aid the woman."Troublesome!"Xavier muttered to himself. He stashed his phone away, ignoring the assistant's call.A long sigh escaped Xavier's mouth. The woman had ended up in a position entirely unfit to be seen.Her entire body was inside a trash bin."Don't peek! Watch out if you dare to be lewd!"Whether he liked it or not, Xavier certainly saw the layer of pants worn by the woman. Short and only covering half of her legs."Have you forgotten? I've never been interested in a body like yours."Audi wanted to be as angry as possible this time. However, considering that only the man could help her, Audi had to restrain herself."Uh... Do you eat rocks?"After helping the woman out of the trash bin, Audi immediately received an ultimatum from
"What are you doing?"Audi then let go of the man's hand. As usual, a smirk would color the woman's face."Earlier, I was just..."Audi tightly shut her mouth again.The man seemed completely uninterested in any explanation Audi might offer."I shouldn't have thought he would listen to my explanation."Audi took a deep breath. The strong scent of her body prompted Audi to hurry to the receptionist present there."Psst! Mika! Mika!"Audi called the woman at the reception desk. Quickly, the woman approached her."Sis Audi?! Oh my goodness! It's been so long since Sis Audi was last seen here. Usually, you're here every day."Audi seemed to raise her fingers, placing them at the tip of her nose."Don't be too loud! Oh yeah, later my friend will pay for his treatment along with mine. Please take care of my bill by telling him that my treatment is in the lower class. You don't need to ask too much, just do what I say."Although confused, the woman immediately nodded as instructed by Audi."
A while back...Victor walked out of his office. It seemed like he needed to talk to the man who, for some reason, felt like a threat to him at the moment.However, contrary to his expectations, the person he was looking for was not there."Where is he? Why isn't he here?"Victor furrowed his brow, trying to notice the empty desk. It turned out it wasn't just Xavier's place but also the spot of the woman who always defended Xavier."Where did they both go? Are they on a break? Their break should be over soon; they should be back by now."Victor looked at his wrist, trying to guess where they might be right now.Soon after, the woman who had entered Victor's room without permission returned to her desk.She seemed puzzled by the sudden presence of the director."Mr. Victor? Are you here?" Melanie asked, placing her box of french fries and burger on the desk.Victor turned around, finding the woman staring at him intently. "Do you know where they are?"Melanie fell silent. She hadn't se
-Zeyn[He ordered someone to follow you, Young Master.]Before packing up to leave, Xavier just opened the message that had been sent by Zeyn hours ago.Even the message was sent right after Xavier contacted Zeyn to report his absence and the woman beside him."Damn!"Xavier slammed the table, venting the anger that enveloped him.Audi, who had just finished packing, appeared to sling her bag over one shoulder."What's wrong?" Audi asked, puzzled by the man's sudden behavior.Xavier remained unmoved, shifting his gaze to the woman."All because of you!"For the first time, Xavier expressed his frustration to the woman through a sentence.His face hardened, his emotions rising as if ready to be unleashed on the woman."Because of me? What have I done?"Confused, Audi tried to seek an explanation for the accusations made by Xavier.However, the man did not articulate his sentence again.His face only showed increasing flatness over time. A long sigh, that's all Audi could do at the mome
"Audi walked through the darkness of the night. She continued along the sidewalk, illuminated by the dim glow of the streetlights.The tears streamed relentlessly from her eyes. Her heart ached deeply upon realizing that the man had truly left her."He really doesn't care about me. I know he's upset and angry with me, but does he have to leave me like this? I'm truly scared and alone."Audi walked, embracing herself.The drizzling rain moistened the earth, but Audi paid no attention, allowing herself to get wet."Where are you, Xavier? I'm scared. I'd rather be scolded by you than be left like this. I'm afraid. I'm really scared right now."Her eyes occasionally scanned the road, hoping to find Xavier and his motorcycle.However, it seemed all of it existed only in her mind. In reality, Xavier wouldn't return for a woman who caused trouble in his life."I shouldn't have done that. No matter what, it's all because of my excessive actions. If I hadn't behaved recklessly, none of this wo
Xavier descended alongside Audi, who still appeared traumatized. The woman seemed unsettled, as if her mind had paused at a point where she almost lost her dignity."Xavier..."With a soft tone, she bravely called out to the man, who barely glanced her way. One of his eyebrows raised, indicating he was questioning why she called him."I... I'm still scared because of what happened earlier. Can I ask you for something?"With caution, she tried to phrase her words so as not to mislead Xavier."What?"After hearing his response, Audi gathered the courage to look at his face."Can I sleep with you? I mean... share the same room. But if you want me on the sofa or the floor, that's okay too. I'm just uneasy about the current atmosphere."Xavier stared flatly at her. A long exhale escaped his mouth."Come along."Xavier took the lead, and Audi quickly followed behind him. She didn't allow much distance between them. Though initially, Xavier wanted to object, his father's words reminded him o
Audi opened her eyes when she felt someone's breath brushing against her face. Both of her eyes widened instantly, finding the proximity of her face to Xavier's intensely close.Xavier, facing Audi, had tightly embraced her waist."Am I dreaming?" Audi mumbled, pulling her hand slowly to assess the situation."Ouch!" Audi exclaimed when the pinch she gave to her face felt painful, indicating that she wasn't currently dreaming.With difficulty, Audi tried to swallow her saliva. Being so close, she could feel the man's breath leaving an uncontrollable heartbeat debate for her.She had to admit, the man was very handsome. Even while sleeping, Audi couldn't stop staring at him.Complimentary words involuntarily escaped Audi's mouth and mind.The perfectly sculpted figure left Audi only able to gaze and go silent."No! What's wrong with me? Why am I like this? Stop this madness, Audi!"Audi closed her eyes for quite a while, trying to dispel any strange thoughts in her head. At that moment
