Though Maison wanted to say something, he quickly held his tongue when he saw how condescendingly his father was looking at him. So be it! There was no hope of helping when his clueless Daddy was his teammate!
“…I’ll be heading to bed first, Aunt… Goodbye…” muttered the child, leaving the two behind…
Though Zivon had anticipated that Xavia would ask him why he’d lie to her, instead, she simply headed to the kitchen and began wrapping the dishes up in plastic wraps! Once she was done, she walked up to the man before saying in an indifferent tone, “Place the dishes in the microwave for about two minutes when morning comes so that Maison can have the food for his breakfast.”
Following that, she turned around and began to leave… Honestly, the fact that she didn’t even bother questioning or getting mad at him made Zivon feel even more terrible. After all, it meant that she truly thought nothing of him! For f*ck’s sake! How had she drifted so far from him in just a few days?! She was truly going to be out of reach now…!
In the end, before Xavia could leave, Zivon grabbed her by the wrist before pressing her against a wall while asking, “Is it that difficult for you to even talk to me now?”
“Very,” replied Xavia without the slightest hesitation. After all, she no longer had any expectations of him ever since the time he had chosen not to visit her back in prison. That was like sending her to a death sentence, so what else could a dead woman say to him?
In fact, it was because of that incident that she no longer felt afraid when he trapped her like this. On the contrary, she simply felt even more indifferent than usual…
Regardless, her attitude and tone felt like a massive stone on Zivon’s heart. How depressing…
