Yulissa felt aggrieved because he was the one who had been calling Winnie a dumbass. “But Xavier—”

“No buts!” Xavier sounded even more stern.

Yulissa suddenly realized something when she saw how protective Xavier was toward Winnie.

She teared up and looked at Xavier in disbelief. “Xavier, are you bewitched by her looks? But she’s really just a—”

“Shut up!” Xavier cut her off with a frown. “She has never bewitched me. Don’t throw your unfounded accusation at her.”

Instead, he had willingly let himself fall for her.

Even so, Yulissa was still baffled.

Xavier is such a prideful person. How is he not mad after having wine poured all over him? He doesn’t even care about my swollen face and is telling me not to call that woman a dumbass. Five years ago, he would never have let anyone bully his girlfriend. In fact, there was no way he would have let someone humiliate him like that. Has this man gone crazy? Why would he fall for a dumbass?

“What about those things that you said to me before this, Xavier? Do those words mean anything?”

“I meant what I said,” Xavier said expressionlessly. “Yulissa, as I said, as long as you behave, we could perhaps go back to how things once were.”

“Really?”

Xavier chuckled. “I don’t have a reason to lie to you.”

“Okay. I’ll behave. No matter what happens, I’m not going to leave you this time.”
