He thought Yvette had been right before. There was no way they could be friends when they had been husband and wife. If she was going to leave, he would have to die first! The light in Yvette's eyes dimmed, and she smiled bitterly. "If I had known that you're someone who holds grudges, I would've asked to call off the marriage beforehand."

Yvette was slightly drunk, and her face was red. He thought she had caught a cold from him, and he reached out to place his hand on her forehead.
However, before he even touched her, she instinctively avoided him.
His hand was left hanging in mid-air. Then, he tried touching her again, this twithout bothering. about whether she tried to avoid him. She didn't have a fever. "Do you feel great after drinking so much?" He was asking the obvious, and she ignored his question. Instead, she asked, "When can I see Noah? He's a timid kid, and I'm worried he might be scared of being alone in an unfamiliar place." "That'll depend on how you perform," he said.
She was confused. "What do you mean?" He reached out again, and she didn't avoid him. Instead, she just watched as he placed his hand on her cheek. She couldn't help asking, "I don't understand, Xavier." "What?" "Have you fallen for me?" she asked slowly.

"What about you?" He looked straight into her eyes. "Do you still like me?"
Yvette looked back at him and shook her head. Just as his face fell, she said, "I don't know! What I do know is that I can now sleep peacefully without you beside me..."
Although she spoke calmly, every word felt like a sharp arrow piercing through Xavier's chest. As the car drove on, Yvette couldn't see Xavier's eyes turning red because of how dark it was. He leaned against the door and didn't notice the changes in her either. She had bectalkative after sdrinks. She didn't care if he was listening and continued to speak her mind freely.
