...Mrs. Lockhart?
Glaring at Xavia with a disgusted expression, Mrs. Lockhart then added, “The hell are you doing here? Don’t you know it’s unlucky for me to bump into you?!”
Though Xavia would’ve chosen to ignore her statement on any regular day, those words felt particularly sharp after all that she had just experienced. With that, Xavia glared right back at her before retorting, “If I’m so unlucky, it makes me wonder why you didn’t strangle me to death the second I was born! If you had done that, I wouldn’t be making you pissed right now! I wouldn’t have had to indirectly kill Grandma or Mrs. Harrison either…!”
With how loud Xavia suddenly was, Mrs. Lockhart couldn’t help but go pale as she took a step back and replied, “You…! B-back off…! You maniac…!”
As the terrified woman scurried off, Xavia couldn’t help but helplessly laugh in place… With how much her mother hated her, it made her wonder why Mrs. Harrison had even bothered treating her well back then…
Now thoroughly depressed, she slowly made her way toward Sophia’s ward… Staring at the pale, unconscious woman, Xavia couldn’t help but think that this was a far cry from the initially strong and confident woman Sophia had once been…
Following a sigh, she was prompted to say, “…I’m truly sorry for all that’s happened, Miss Harrison… I never wanted to cause harm to you or your mother… That aside, I’ll be breaking up with Young Master Burton soon, no strings attached… Following that, please get better and live a good life… If you work hard, I’m sure you’ll eventually be able to win Young Master Burton’s affection… That, I believe, will finally let your mother’s spirit rest in peace…”
It was noon when Xavia finally left the hospital, and after getting into a cab, she was prompted to send Zivon a text that stated, ‘I’ve made my decision, Young Master Burton. I’m breaking up with you… Haven’t you told me time and again that you hated being abandoned…? The fact that I’m still doing it when I know, should tell you that I’m unworthy of your love… With that said, I wish you happiness…’
After saying that, Xavia blocked his number and even removed him from her friend list. It took her a short while to process her emotions, but once she was done, she gave Bianca a call…
When Bianca picked up, Xavia was quick to say, “Say, Bianca? Do you think the video we shot that day can be released next week? I’m feeling a bit tired, so I plan to take Yulia and Dolly on a trip… Would you like to come with…?”
