Feeling the corner of his eye twitch when he heard that, Zivon icily replied, “…Husband? Can you still call me that when you clearly wanted another woman to sleep with me…?!”
Naturally, his words stung her heart to its very core. Holding back the pain, the desperate woman whimpered, “…Please, Hubby, I…! I was forced to do this…! So please stop fussing over this for now, alright…?”
Sneering as he glared at her pitiful face, he simply retorted, “Forced? Hah! In what way? Does someone have a gun to your head? Or are you currently dying of a mysterious illness?! If you’re faced with such a major dilemma, then just tell me what the problem is so that I can solve it!”
His words instantly caused her heart to skip a beat. After all, one of his guesses was partially correct… But even if she told him that now, there was no way that he’d be able to find a cure for her in time… After all, not even Matthew and Ian, who had been tirelessly looking for an antidote for her this entire time, were able to help her…
Since she wasn’t saying anything, Zivon found his anger rising again as he growled, “See? Every time I bring this up, you refuse to say a word! Have it your way! Only talk to me once you’re willing to explain yourself!”
Following that, he hopped out of bed before heading off to the guest room…
Though Xavia was tempted to run after him, she knew that it wouldn’t do any good. Until she explained things, he wouldn’t ever open up to her again… It didn’t help that she knew that he was smart enough to tell if she was lying! In the end, the night was a cold and desolate one for both of them…
