She really couldn’t tell what he was trying to achieve. He already had Jenna and so many other women, so why was he still pestering her?
Whatever his reasoning was, she wasn’t planning to give him the satisfaction of a reaction. Instead, she simply remained as straight as a log and as emotionless as a salted fish.
Naturally, after kissing her for a while, Zivon quickly realized that she was completely indifferent to his actions. This prompted him to let go of her before saying, “Grandma’s in a bad mood after experiencing some nightmares… That aside, Grandma also told me to stay with Jenna, and she added that she’d come check on our room every night.”
…So he had only returned because of his grandmother? And he also did that with Jenna because of her? Even so, no matter what his reason was, that didn’t change the fact about what he had done.
With that in mind, Xavia averted her gaze as she replied, “…You really don’t need to explain yourself, Young Master Burton. After all, you and Jenna are husband and wife, so it’s only fair for you two to bear a second child. That aside, could you send me that video? I wish to look for Jenna.”
Xavia, for one, wasn’t interested in staying. All she cared about was her reputation and the design. After all, that design represented her hopes of ending her contract with Keith.
Still, the fact that she had completely disregarded Zivon’s attempt to explain himself—even though he wasn’t the kind of person who would usually do such a thing—understandably made Zivon feel slightly unhappy.
In the end, he wordlessly sent her the video through WhatsApp before letting her off.
Though Xavia could sense that he was mad, she had no idea why he was irked in the first place. Was he hoping for her to just accept that he had done it with Jenna after hearing his explanation? In the end, that didn’t really matter since it wasn’t like she was anyone to him anyway…
Regardless, once the video was sent over, she simply said, “Thank you,” before turning around to leave the bamboo forest, trudging her luggage along as she headed off to find Jenna…
It was shortly after when Jenna—who was looking as beautiful as a princess—could be seen touching up her makeup in front of her bathroom mirror.
