Awkwardly smiling at the boy, she then headed toward the door… only to realize that Wendy had been standing there this entire time! From the way she was staring at her, it was clear that Wendy had overheard Maison’s words! Now feeling even more embarrassed, the panicked Xavia was prompted to say, “M-Maison was just joking, Aunt… Nothing happened between Young Master Burton and I!”
Looking at how flustered Xavia was, Wendy couldn’t bring herself to say that she disliked the girl… Even so, when she thought about Jenna, she also felt slightly grossed out by Xavia’s relationship with Zivon.
In the end, she monotonously replied, “…I’m making breakfast downstairs.”
Watching as Wendy walked off, Xavia couldn’t help but remain frozen in place… Come to think of it, Wendy meant the world to Zivon… How was Zivon going to handle being tormented by his relationship with both her and his mother…?
After a while, Xavia was prompted to say, “…Um… Yulia? Go head downstairs with Brother Maison, alright? Mommy needs to go get changed…”
“Got it, Mommy!” replied Yulia as she hopped out of Xavia’s arms, allowing Xavia to return to her bedroom…
Before she could even find a proper set of clothes, however, Zivon walked up to her and said, “I’ve ordered some clothes for you and Yulia. They’ll be here in half an hour.”
…As always, he was being so considerate… What a perfect boyfriend… At the same time, however, it also made her feel increasingly guilty about it…
Since she was just standing there, Zivon—who had just slipped on his suit—was prompted to ask, “What’s wrong? Is Yulia still feeling down?”
“…Not really, it’s just… Aunt doesn’t seem to like me a lot… I’m just trying to make her happy, you know…? Do you know any of her preferences? I hope that it’ll ease her into accepting our relationship…” muttered Xavia as she shook her head.
Smiling subtly, Zivon replied, “Don’t worry too much about it. My mother is a really friendly person. That aside, you should be more focused on pleasing me, don’t you think?”
Upon hearing that, Xavia couldn’t help but roll her eyes. He didn’t need to be pleased all day, right? Still, he had forgiven her as soon as she made things clear… and he had also been very patient with her…
