Chapter 26 I Don't Remember Calling You Over

• In the past, their rendezvous had always taken place in the comfort of his home, but today things are different. The man she loved was now a married man, and he had sent her away last night so that he could spend it with his new wife, as he had done the previous night. So Olivia made a hasty escape from her own house and drove over to Xavier's grand villa. The guards at the entrance bowed and opened the gate for her, but just as she was about to enter the extravagant property, she was abruptly stopped by the sight of Xavier standing before her, his chiseled features etched with surprise.
• "Oh, God, baby. I was looking for you." Xavier's eyes narrowed as they roamed over her from head to toe. His annoyance was palpable as he slipped his hand into his pocket, a subtle gesture of irritation. He couldn't help but scan her again, taking in every detail of the woman standing before him. Her figure was lithe and graceful, yet she held herself with an air of confidence that both intrigued and infuriated him. Finally, he couldn't contain himself any longer and spoke with a sharp tone in his voice.
• "I don't remember calling you to come over, Olivia. What do you want?" Olivia was rendered speechless. The question that fell from the man's lips caught her off guard, leaving her stunned and unprepared. Her mind raced, trying to come up with a plausible response as she struggled to process the shock of his inquiry. No one could have blamed her for being taken aback by the revelation that this man, whose presence exuded an air of bachelorhood, was in fact married. It was like a punch to the gut, sending her reeling and struggling to come to terms with this new information.
