At that moment, Xavia was glad that the lights were off. After all, she knew that she was currently as red as an apple! Due to how nervous she was, she didn’t think much about her words and quickly replied, “…Y-yes… After all, you’ve already helped me so much… I know how tired you are because of me, so I really hope I can bear some of your burdens as well…”
Xavia, for one, wasn’t sure whether she could pull through things this time… With that in mind, she wanted to at least give it to him once. Only by doing so would she not have regrets in the future…
Upon hearing that, Zivon got slightly irked. Was she only doing all this to express her gratitude? Feeling like he had just been doused in icy water, Zivon stared at the barely visible woman while saying, “…I don’t want to hear you putting yourself down like this anymore, understand?”
Watching as Zivon turned to face her, she clenched her fists and did the same before replying, “…I’m your girlfriend, am I not? Why would using this method be considered putting myself down? Especially after my boyfriend has helped me so much? Zivon, please understand that I don’t have much else to give aside from all my heart…”
After saying that, Xavia mustered her courage to hug his arm before adding, “…With that said… Please accept it, Young Master Burton…”
Knowing how rarely she expressed her thoughts so clearly, Zivon found it increasingly difficult to control himself as he stared at the love of his life. Eventually, he held onto her slender waist before asking, “…Do you only see me as a benefactor or something? Xavia, I don’t want such an important thing to be prompted by other factors. Now be good and get some rest.”
From the tone of his voice, it was clear that this was a warning… and had Xavia been her past self, then she’d surely have run off to hide in embarrassment. However, the current Xavia really wanted to do something for him… Firstly out of gratitude, and secondly, since she was worried that there’d be no future for them…
With that in mind, Xavia eventually replied, “…I like you, Young Master Burton, so please accept-”
“Xavia,” interrupted Zivon in a slightly raised tone. Zivon had always had an extremely weak spot for her, so he was nearing his limit by having to reject her once more. Regardless, after a brief pause, Zivon added, “…I’m… heading back to the old mansion tonight… Sleep well…”
