Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 1227

She ate crawfish while he monitored and topped up her drink. All his thoughtfulness, meticulousness, gentleness, and patience was on display right now.

The next day.

The two of them headed back to the mansion.

Xavia sat in the car and stared at the man who was driving. He was so handsome, so perfect…

Agh! It wasn't just her, right? Other women would change their mind often too, she was definitely not the only one!

After a while, she recalled something else and pursed her lips in concern. “Sophia must be mad because we didn't go back last night.”

Zivon’s expression did not change. His gaze was gentle as he said, “It’s fine.”

If it wasn't for Xavia’s self-condemnation, he wouldn't have signed that contract and agreed to live in the villa with Sophia. However, since he had signed it, there were some things he had to abide by to avoid unnecessary trouble. “I'll drop you off outside the neighborhood, then go to the office. You go in alone.”

Xavia thought it was a good idea. She did not feel guilty, but Sophia was very emotional and Xavia did promise her she wouldn't interact with Zivon, so this was her best option! “If she asks, I will say that I had not seen you and I went back to the private residence. You have to keep up the lie too.”

Zivon glanced at her determined expression, and his eyes softened in affection.

When the car stopped at the traffic lights, he asked lightly, “What do you think of Mark Newman?”

He had purposely glanced at his wristwatch while asking so she would not notice his concern, but the way his eyes darkened showed his true feelings about the matter.

Xavia did not notice, and when she heard the question, her eyes dimmed slightly.

Sophia had a white suit and light makeup on. She sat on the sofa, reading the newspaper, and her pretty face seemed arrogant and angry.

The moment she saw Xavia, she glanced at her and snapped, “Didn’t you go out to buy me fruits yesterday? Why didn’t you come back? Young Master Burton didn’t come back either. Were you two together?”

She was straight to the point.

Although Xavia had prepared for this, when Sophia questioned her, she felt guilty and lowered her head. “No. I went out to buy fruits yesterday, but on my way back, I met a robber. After the traumatic incident, I went back to the private residence. I-I didn’t see Young Master Burton.”

Her voice was soft and this was probably the first time Xavia had lied. She felt extremely guilty about it, but she didn’t have a choice in a situation like this.

“Really?” Sophia stood up and walked towards her. She eyed her up and down and sneered mockingly, “Then would you care to explain something?”
