...He was just used to calling her by her first name, and besides, they were friends. What was the harm in calling her that? Still, he could already feel Zivon’s menacing aura, so Keith simply replied, “…That was inappropriate of me. I’ll be calling her Lady Burton from now on, then.”
Nodding in response, Zivon then said, “Good. Also, if anything happens to her in the future, just contact me first. If you do otherwise, then you’re automatically overstepping your boundaries.”
With that said, he walked off, leaving Keith speechless. While he knew that Zivon loved her very much, to think that he was being this overprotective of her… Bah, so be it! At the very least, this showed that he truly did love her.
She now had a loving husband and family, and neither side would allow her to continue being taken advantage of… Pleased with that idea, Keith got his phone out before sending her a text that came from the bottom of his heart…
‘Congratulations on achieving true blissfulness, Xavia…’
Moving back to Zivon, he was just about to head downstairs when he bumped into Whitney. Raising a slight brow, Zivon growled, “…What are you doing here?”
Going slightly pale, the startled woman replied, “I-I heard about Mr. Burton’s condition, so… A-anyway, now that you’re here, I… I’m sorry…! I hadn’t expected Xavia and Frankston to be siblings, and I’m sure she plotted all this just so you’d hate me, and-”
“Stop. Follow me,” interrupted the icy man as he began walking over to the parking lot.
