Yvette's body tensed up when she heard Zoey's name. Xavier could clearly feel the change in her body since he was holding her. "What's wrong?" She shook her head. "Nothing."

He frowned, and the great mood he'd been in earlier was ruined in an instant. "If you don't want to go, I can go myself."

"You heard what Viola said. Since I'm Jeremiah's sister-in-law, I should attend his engagement."

Xavier finally felt better when he heard her acknowledging Jeremiah as her brother-in-law.

When they reached home, they checked the gifts again. Then, Yvette plopped on the couch to rest.

After a short while, her phone rang. When she answered the call, she heard a familiar voice before she could ask who it was. "Yvvy, it's Jeremiah."

Yvette instantly tensed up. Although they'd met before, they'd never talked in private. After all, they both had their own lives now.

"Can I help you?" She had a lot of questions she'd wanted to ask him. However, she didn't manage to ask a single question at that moment.

"Can we talk in person?" he asked.

Jeremiah had wanted to see her multiple times. However, she'd rejected his invitation every time. So, he'd had no choice but to call her himself. He wasn't sure if she'd be willing to see him.
