Your Love Is My Weapon
Chapter 42

She could deny her past, and she did not intend to hide anyone, but she could not say it.

Xavier's father was a senior official, and he was still in power. If Xavier was rumored to have amistress who had been in prison, his father would definitely be affected by Xavier's personal affair.She was afraid someone would talk something bad about him in the back.

If his reputation was tarnished, and she might not be able to get what she wanted.

For her own safety, she lied.

She hugged Xavier and buried her face in his arms. "Not everyone is born from a good family likeyou."

He had a family and his parents were alive.

But everything about her was in pieces. Her mother was gone, and her child was gone.

The people she loved the most all left her.

Sometimes she would feel tired, but when she thought of the past, all the difficulties became soinsignificant.

"I'm so sleepy.” She closed her eyes and looked exhausted.

"Close your eyes then."

Xavier combed her hair and spoke softly, looking a little gentle.

After a long night, Arya was really tired. Not long after, she fell asleep in Xavier's arms.

She didn't sleep well and woke up from time to time. She was worried about Ryan.

After waking up a few times, she found out that Ryan didn't wake up, and then she fell into a soundsleep.

"Have a good night. I'll watch over him for you." Xavier put her on the bed and covered her with thequilt. Arya grabbed his hand. "He's not my child. I promised someone to take good care of him. It'smy responsibility if anything happened to him."

Xavier straightened himself. "Why are you explaining this to me? Are you in love with me?"

"I... didn't mean that." Arya was almost out of sleep.

She was scared.

"If you don't want me to misunderstand, just go to sleep.” He said seriously.

Arya couldn't change his mind, so she could only close her eyes obediently.

Xavier didn't sleep all night. Something was occupied in his brain. He was an adult and knew why hewas struggling.

Without his fiancée Harriet, perhaps the relationship between him and this woman could be furtherdeveloped.

But he already had Harriet. Whether it was out of responsibility or the bottom line in his heart, hetold himself that he and this woman were impossible.

He was a man and had his own bottom line. He could play with this woman, but it was impossiblefor him to marry her.

His wife must be a virgin and have a clean background.

"Where's Arya?" Ryan was not so unfamiliar with everything here after what happened last night.When he woke up, he didn't cry. He climbed out of bed and didn't see Arya when he came out, sohe asked the man sitting on the sofa.

"Come here." Xavier put out the cigarette and waved to him to come over.

Ryan walked towards him with his short legs. He was too short to sit on the sofa, so he climbed upwith both hands.

Knowing that he wasn't Arya and another man's child, he wasn't that annoyed anymore.

He patiently carried him and put him on the sofa across from him.

They sat face to face.

Those who didn't know might think that Xavier had a son, but Xavier's words immediately broke theillusion.

"Where are your parents? Why are you following her?"

Xavier asked.

Ryan stared at Xavier. His big eyes were covered in mist.

He was most afraid of being asked where his parents were.

Because he didn't have parents.

Seeing his other friends calling out mom and dad, he could only envy them. In order not to makeGrandma angry, he did not dare to show.

He didn't even dare to cry.

Only Caspar was good to him.

"I'm an abandoned child. I don't have a father or a mother."

He opened his eyes wide to prevent tears from falling.

It was heartbreaking.

Xavier had never been so embarrassed, not even knowing how to coax the child.

He ordered stiffly, "Stop crying, or Arya may say that I bullied you later.”

"I'm not crying.” Ryan wiped away his tears.

"Ryan." Arya was woken up by Caspar's phone call. When she opened her eyes, she realized that itwas already so late.

And she didn't expect to see the scene of Xavier and Ryan alone downstairs.

She bent over and picked Ryan up. "When did you wake up, Ryan? Are you hungry?"

However, at this moment, she found traces of Ryan crying and looked at Xavier inquiringly.

It wasn't that she thought too much. It was, in terms of Xavier's temper, that she believed...

"Don't look at me like that.”

Xavier's face was cold. 'In her heart, what kind of person am 1?*

'I'm not the one who could even bully a child."

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He really wanted to grab her collar and askher.

In the end, he controlled himself. He was afraid that he would lose control of himself again whenfacing this woman, he simply got up and left.

"Arya, he didn't do anything wrong. It's me." Ryan put his arms around Arya’s neck and explained.Arya's expression froze for a moment.

"Arya," Ryan called her. "Is Caspar still busy? Why didn't he pick me up?"

'Does he not want me either?"

Only then did Arya come back to her senses and told him that she would take him to Caspar.Ryan raised a smile. He was afraid, afraid of being abandoned.

The place was chosen by Arya, a breakfast shop near Juliet's jewelry store.

Arya arrived first and ordered breakfast for Ryan.

After Ryan finished eating, Caspar just arrived in a hurry.

"I'm really sorry. I asked you to take care of this kid for so long. Thank you so much.”

Arya shook her head and said it was OK.

To express his gratitude, Caspar handed her a business card. "Aren't you looking for a job? You cancome to work for me. I have something to do today. I have to go first.”

Then he carried Ryan and left.

Arya put away the business card and left. She planned to go to Juliet and ask her to persuade Jasperfor her.

Coincidentally, as soon as she arrived at the store, Marshal and Sunny entered the jewelry store.Arya had worked here before and was familiar with the place. She quickly hid behind the wall in thecorner.

She peeked out and saw Sunny holding Marshal's arm.

Arya couldn't help but frown. The last time she miscarried in the hospital, Marshal didn't even lookat her and treated her like that.

“She is with him now?"

'Is she out of her mind?"

Before she could figure it out, a hand suddenly put on her shoulder. "What are you doing here?"Arya was shocked and quickly covered Juliet's mouth, making a silent gesture.

Juliet gestured that she wouldn't speak, so Arya let her go.

Juliet pulled her aside. "Do you know those two people? That man is a famous playboy."

Arya shook her head. "I know that woman.”

"How's Jasper?” Speaking of Jasper, she was very depressed.

It wasn't that she didn't care. It was just that she couldn't help it.

"How dare you mention Jasper?”

Juliet was furious. "Do you know how long he has been standing there? I wonder what makes youtoo cruel to even take a look at him?"

Arya couldn't explain. She just handed Juliet the letter she had written to Jasper.

"Give it to him for me."

"Why can't you do it yourself?" Juliet didn't understand. “What does she really want since this mandid everything for her?’

"Arya, don't you think you're very pretentious?"

Arya raised her lips. "Maybe."

Perhaps that she didn't want to hurt Jasper was pretentious in the eyes of others.

But it didn't matter. She knew she was not.

At this time, Marshal had already bought Sunny expensive jewelry.

Sunny didn't expect Marshal to come looking for her again.

In fact, she didn't value money that much and didn't need him to give her anything.

As long as she could still be with him, that was enough. Maybe her feelings were so cheap.

That man hurt her, but she still wanted to be with him no matter what.

Just because she loved him.

"I don't need it." Sunny declined. Now that her sister had graduated, she no longer needed thatmuch money to support her sister.

Marshal smiled. "Today we are going to visit some big shot, you can't look shabby. Just take what Ibought for you. Don't be shy. Besides, you've never refused my money and my gifts before.”

"I needed money to help my sister before...”

"I don't want to hear your explanation. I'm not interested in your family's affairs.”

Marshal interrupted her.

For Marshal, he didn't care if there was a reason for her to receive his money. The truth was that shedid take his money.

There was no need to explain.

'She dared to act like she treated money as trash. How ridiculous!

Sunny bit her lips. "I need to go to the bathroom.”

"Hurry up, don't hold me back.”

Marshal was impatient.

Sunny said yes and left quickly.

She understood Marshal's sarcasm.

The sound of water stopped abruptly. She looked up and her pale face was reflected in the mirror.'Is such a man worth my love?*
