Her Heart Her Terms (Lily and Xavier)

Chapter 415 Xavier stared at Lily for a few seconds. He leaned over the couch to grab his phone before exiting the ward.

Lily assumed that he must be figuring out a plan to save Sarah. The light in her eyes dimmed when she looked out of the window. The neon lights had just come to life, illuminating the city in a bright splash of colors.

Knowing that Xavier had gone to bail Sarah out, Lily's heart felt unbearably cold. Even though she knew from the start that when it came to Sarah, there was nothing that Xavier wouldn't do, she had foolishly harbored a small spark of hope in her heart.

She had nearly turned Xavier into a laughingstock by almost cheating on him, and her hand was now crippled. She had thought Xavier would no longer unconditionally protect Sarah without asking for anything in return. But he had still chosen to shelter her.

Outside the ward, Xavier called Timothy. "The evidence that the police have, is it enough to convict her?"

Timothy had been following Sarah's case closely. He had seen the footage from the surveillance cameras and heard the recording from Bruce's dashboard camera.

"They're not fake."

Xavier was beyond frustrated. He leaned his hand on the windowsill. The neon lights outside the window cast a brilliant glow on his handsome face.

"Sarah really has feelings for me?"

Timothy paused for a moment before replying in a small voice, "That time you got drunk and I sent you and Ms. Lynde home, I think she kissed you."
