Zivon never played around with women, regardless of whether it was a fling or just a temporary solution to his needs.
At least, she had never seen him do such a thing in the many years she had known him.
Zivon was the kind of man who was the most attractive to women, but was also the most difficult to approach. Even if she wanted to become one of his options, it would always just be a hopeless dream.
The more Sophia thought about it, the more wine she drank with the people around her.
By the time the poker game was over at two o'clock in the morning, she was already drunk and drowsy.
“Young Master Burton, Chairman Harrison is drunk.”
“That's a hint to you, Young Master Burton.”
“Have a good night tonight.”
Everyone sent him teasing looks as they spoke.
Zivon looked at Sophia contemplatively.
He did not like women who drank too much, and he usually would never go near a drunk woman. However, he could not leave Sophia alone when everyone’s eyes were on him.
“My little Maison is already three years old so you don't have to worry about me. See you some other time,” Zivon said with a brief smile and left with Sophia in his arms.
In tonight's card game, he had deliberately lost a building, which was also considered a return gift.
Zivon went straight back to the hotel, and once he arrived, he asked the person sent by Chace, “How is Miss Lockhart?”
“Young Master Burton, Miss Lockhart is already asleep. She took pills to sober up before she slept, so she'll be fine when she wakes up tomorrow morning.” The female assistant who knew Chace’s arrangements answered Zivon respectfully before handing the room card to him.
“The top floor requires special access, so nobody can go up there.”
Zivon hummed indifferently and took Sophia upstairs.
It was the peak of Xavia’s career development, and although the assistant said that there would be no people around, Zivon brought Sophia up with him to avoid any unwanted incidents.
There were two rooms in the house. After putting Sophia on the guest bed, Zivon went to the master bedroom. Only a small wall lamp was turned on in the bedroom, and the soft light illuminated the sleeping young lady's peaceful face.
Xavia smelled amazing, and there was the slightest scent of alcohol on her breath which was strangely enticing. It was fascinating to Zivon.
