Rebirth 196
Yvette wondered if the things she had done in the past were already exposed. Did Xavier know? Her heart was pounding like crazy, how could she deal with this situation?
Xavier stared sharply at the top of her head, his voice cold. "If you don't understand, then just stay quiet and be Mrs. Flynn. After speaking, he gave her a symbolic pat on the back before pushing her aside and walking away.
Yvette felt a chill run through her. What did those words even mean? Was it a warning? Just thinking about it made her sweep everything off the table onto the floor. It was all because of that woman!

But this was Xavier's study, and she didn't dare. She for she had to regain her former image.
Just as Xavier entered the room, Yvette's voice called out from behind him, "Are you leaving again?"
He turned around and saw Yvette in a strappy dress. In his memory, she had never worn that color before. His heartache momentarily subsided, "It's chilly out, why not wear something warmer??
Hearing those words, tears glistened in Yvette's eyes. It had been such a long time since someone showed her genuine concern. "It's been days since you really looked at me like this." Yvette skillfully concealed the disappointment in her eyes and forced a smile. Xavier's
's heart softened. For the usually proud Yvette to act so reluctantly, he gently took her hand. "Why are your hands so cold?" Xavier asked. leading Yvette toward the bed.
"Xavier, I was wrong before, Yvette admitted with a hint of guilt.
Xavier reassured her with a comforting hug. "It's alright.
Yvette brewed him a cup of coffee. "I just made this, give it a try she playfully said, showing off her work.
Despite this, Xavier felt uneasy after drinking a cup of coffee. "Was it you who did the thing at the stables yesterday?" he suddenly asked.
Yvette was momentarily stunned, her face soon filled with sadness. "How could you doubt me like that?"
"Was it?" Xavier asked.
"No, I was just watching from the side," Wette replied.
Xavier couldn't stop replaying the scene in his head from yesterday when Yasmine's horse got spooked, and she nearly got thrown into the barbed wire fence. He could imagine how her face would have been scratched if she really hit that wire. "Yasmine has never wronged you, so if you saw something, you could have at least told me, he said with a hint of anger.
"Xavier, that's other people's business, we Yvette said.

"But she used to be my ex-
Yvette finally snapped, "She's your ex-wife, but I'm still your wife! Do you think Irene will let me off the hook if I really meddle in her business? Have you even considered my feelings
"Yvette, you've changed, Xavier said, staring at the familiar face that suddenly seemed so distant
Yvette looked at Xavier with a mix of confusion and hurt, "I feel like you've changed too"
Unable to bear it, he decided to leave the scene
Xavier's mind was filled with images of Yasmine's frightened expression and her bleeding arm. U altogether.
Yvette didn't stop him anymore. She only regained her composure after Xavier walked away, then she threw the coffee onto the ground. The cup shartered and coffee splattered everywhere. Him again! Xavier always insisted she was the most important person in his heart, but time and time again circumstances forced Yvette to be fearful. She knew Xavier's heart had started to drift away-leaving her side and heading towards that woman's side. "How could he?" Yvette silently questioned. How could he do this to hert
At Aurelith University, Yasmine was in a meeting when Carter directly assigned her to attend a symposium. The location was in the north of the rity, and the school even booked a room for her at the Frostvale Hotel to avoid finishing the meeting too late. This news reached Yonas cars immediately.
That night, Yasmine checked into the Frostvale Hotel, but an unexpected situation arose. As night fell, Yonas found himself at the Frostvale Hotel. inexplicably drawn there. He approached the window, and inside he heard steady breathing. He pushed the window open and jumped inside, like a thief in the night.
As he neared the bed, he saw Yasmine's eyes suddenly open, her deep brown pupils shining brightly at him.
"You..." Yasmine's mouth fell open in shock, but before she could say more, Yonas' face loomed closer until a somewhat dry lip pressed against hers. Yasmine's mind went blank for a moment as she clutched the area over her pounding heart. What did he plan to do? Yonas's large hand gripped the back of Yasmine's head. Crouched by the bedside, he pressed her lips fiercely against his own. Not enough! It wasn't enough!
Yasmine's
's eyes carried a cold glint as she struggled to push Yonas away with her hands. But he was like a relentless predator. She grew fierce and bit down hard, a metallic taste of blood filling her mouth, unpleasant and bitter. Yonas looked angry, his tongue feeling numb. Yasmine."
"What's gotten into you?" Yasmine retreated as she spoke, "What are you doing!!
Yonas hesitated for a while before forcing a smile, "Yasmine, it's my
fault. I just miss you too much."
Yasmine stared coldly at the open window. Seriously, this guy... "How did you get in here?" Frostvale Hotel had strong security. How did he sneak in and climb up, especially since this was on the third floor? "Climbed through the window, he pointed at the open window.
Yasmine walked over to look down; the height was dizzying-falling from here would be disastrous. "You're crazy! This madman! Yasmine glared at him quickly, worried about what would happen if he really fell. "Yasmine, I just wanted to see you." Yonas leaned slightly closer to her.
Yasmine's cold gaze remained unchanged. "Let's go
She opened the door, and Yonas really walked out. As she watched Yonas' figure disappear, she wiped her lips hard-it tasted like his metallic rust. Being kissed so fiercely felt indescribable. She didn't want to think about it anymore, so she tapped her head and closed her eyes.
Yonas was annoyed that he had lost his mind tonight. He headed towards Irene's office. It was already late at night, pitch black, and without turning on the lights, he wouldn't be able to see anyone. And now, it was indeed dark Just as he stepped in, he heard faint talking coming from the office. The roar from before was unmistakable. He hid his curiosity and walked casually over, letting the words reach his ears,
"Ms. White, do you
you really not need it a male voice asked.
Yonas squinted his eyes slightly. Need what?NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
"I don't need it," Irene said. Her voice grew urgent, "I told you, don't contact me again! Aren't you afraid I'll break ties with you?
Yonas could never forget that woman's voice in his life. The man continued, "With the heat turned up this high, does Ms. White want to stay out of it! Don't forget, I have a lot on you
