Frowning slightly, Xavia turned to look at Ian before muttering, “…You didn’t try to make things particularly difficult for him, did you…?”
“We’re only doing this for your sake,” replied Ian, leaving Xavia speechless. He had avoided answering the question, which meant that the test was probably going to be dangerous…
Regardless, it was about twenty minutes later when all five of them sat in the Frankstons’ conference room. Homer and Yasmin sat in front, whereas Ian and Xavia sat on the left, leaving Zivon sitting alone on the right. It was a strictly formal atmosphere…
Peeking at Zivon, Xavia couldn’t help but feel charmed. Even though she had known him for ages, he still carried that noble aura around him… and had she not known that they were here to discuss their marriage, who knows why else she’d even be sitting before this grand man…
Her train of thought was cut short when Ian said, “So, after a lot of consideration, we’ve come up with three tests, and we’re also delaying the wedding, though only for twenty days. Don’t worry, it’s an auspicious day, we’ve checked. If you give the date some thought, it means that you two will be the only ones for each other. With that said, I believe you have no objections to that?”
Though Xavia wanted to object, Ian’s words sounded reasonable, at least for now. She didn’t want to make it seem like she was overly eager to get married either… With that, she reluctantly replied, “…None here…”
“Same,” said Zivon with a nod.
