Chapter 89

In the end, Yvette had no choice but to give up. Perhaps the tussle had tired her out. She was exhausted, and she fell asleep too.

He opened his eyes and glanced at Yvette, who was nestled in his arms. The cold look in his eyes softened and became unusually gentle.

The air-conditioning was on, and seeing her huddled into a ball, Xavier raised a hand to get his coat and cover her with it.

At that moment, Yvette opened her eyes. When she saw Xavier's gentle eyes, his name slipped out of her mouth. "Xav."

Xavier decided not to press any further. He got up and said sarcastically, "You really do forget things easily, Ms. Snyder."

The look in his eyes was now'icy and impassive. It was very different from how gentle he had looked that morning.
