Isabel's eyes widened as she stared at the handsome man before her, feeling both shocked and unsure of how to respond.

Xander, who had always kept his distance from women, was now holding her!

Rachel was taken aback. She needed to make things clear today.

"Xan, you-"

Or should I have someone throw you out?" Xander's tone was calm but carried a dangerous undertone. Rachel fell silent, not daring to say more as she
