When the flabbergasted woman gave no response, Zivon moved the popcorn out of her hands… before hugging her tightly and giving her a deep kiss… With how gently he was guiding her tongue, she couldn’t help but completely melt in his arms… At the same time, her mind immediately began racing.
After all, from how things had been progressing, there was a high chance that Dolly’s prediction was right on the mark! He was probably going to propose to her any second now…!
Feeling simultaneously nervous and excited, Xavia ended up closing her eyes… If he was really proposing to her now, then there was no way she’d say no!
Regardless, as the expectant woman’s lips parted with Zivon’s, she soon realized that he was looking straight into her eyes… and before she could say anything, the man gently said, “…I’m dating Sophia for the next three months, so we won’t be seeing each other again until then…”
Upon hearing that, Xavia felt like she had just been doused in icy water. What…?! Where was this even coming from…?! Unsure how to even respond to that, all Xavia could do was wordlessly stare at him in her utter confusion…
With how confused she looked, Zivon couldn’t help but sigh before explaining, “…You see, before Grandma died, her final wish was for me to marry Sophia… I won’t be able to honor that wish, however, out of respect, I plan to at least abide by the matchmaking rules… In the end, this is the final time I’ll be able to grant her wish… That aside, Sophia and I are merely colleagues, so please just… let me do this for the next three months… Alright…?”
…So he was only doing that to honor Ava’s final wish… Since that was the case… him not wanting to meet her for the next three months must have been because he didn’t want the public to harm her… While she understood his reasoning and it was true that she was the one who had initially encouraged him to meet Sophia… the thought of him being with another woman still made her feel uneasy…
As Xavia remained silent, Zivon added, “Aside from that, I want you and Yulia to live abroad throughout these three months… Don’t worry, I’ve already gotten Yulia a spot at Fraucia’s Dancing Academy…”
