Your Love Is My Weapon
Chapter 78

Jacob couldn't figure out what Xavier meant.

Xavier put the folder on the desk and leaned back slightly. His tone was cold. "What? You don'tunderstand what I'm saying?"

Jacob braced himself. "I've already brought her up. Do you really not want to see her? I don't thinkshe's in a good condition. There's a scar on her face..."

It was fine if he had not mentioned the scar on her face. But once he said this, Xavier thought of herdetermination that day.

The anger never subsided. He grabbed the folder on the table and threw it at Jacob. "Get out!"Jacob was so frightened that he quickly retreated.

When he walked by the door, he was still in shock. He didn't know why Xavier was so angry.

Didn't he clearly like Arya before?

He even got involved with someone like Eli because of her.

All these years, no matter what tricks Rufus used, he had never fallen for them.

Jacob looked back at Arya, who was standing by the side. "How did you offend my big boss?"

Arya pursed her lips and did not say a word. Could she say that she couldn't stand Xavier's beastlybehavior and broke up with him?

"You go. I'm afraid I can't help you. I've never seen him so angry. It seems that you've offended himvery gravely.”

Jacob sighed slightly and said in confusion, "You are the person I have ever seen who can affect hisemotions the most. He even dealt with Eli because of you. Then why is he so angry with you?"Arya looked at Jacob and asked in confusion, "Who's Eli?"

Jacob didn't hide it from her. He had to let her know what the big boss did for her so that she couldknow how good Xavier was to her.

So Jacob told her everything

"That Marshal went into prison, in the end, has something to do with the big boss. If he hadn't letHoward replace fault with Estella to punish Estella, Marshal wouldn't have clashed with Howard andmurder him."

The more Jacob spoke, the more he felt that Xavier had changed. "He never got involved in thosethings because of the Old Master. All these years, there were always certain people who tried todrag him down. He could handle all that calmly, but because of you, he not only got involved butalso caused so much trouble.”

Arya was stunned. She had always thought that Xavier was only perfunctory about punishing Estellaand did not really do anything about it.

After all, it was his future mother-in-law.

However, he did it.

Arya could not tell what was going on in her heart. It was bitter and astringent, but there was a traceof warmth.

"Go back," Jacob said to Arya.

At this time, it was better not to annoy Xavier.

Arya had to leave the company first, but she didn't go back. Instead, she went to Xavier's villa.

She had already made a decision, so she wouldn't give up easily.

She would not easily back down.

It was because Arya wasn't ruthless enough that Estella framed someone around her again.

She wanted Estella to lose his most proud son-in-law and never have a backer.

Nanny Joy was surprised by Arya's arrival, but she let her in without asking.

After knowing her identity, Nanny Joy was not as enthusiastic about her as before.

After all, most people would like a mistress.

Arya understood, but she didn't explain.

She was a bad woman. This time, she came to Xavier to destroy his relationship with Harriet.

Even if she was scolded by others, she would gladly accept it.

She prepared dinner with Nanny Joy, and Nanny Joy slowly found out it's Xavier's cooking flavor.When dinner was almost ready, Arya asked, "Does he come back every day?"

Nanny Joy nodded and said that he came back every night.

Initially, Nanny Joy also planned to leave after Arya left. She became the only one left in the hugevilla. Xavier was not around all day. She could finish cleaning up in the morning, and the rest of thetime she was idle.

Xavier didn't let her go. The villa used to be cold and quiet. Later, Arya lived in it. He was used tohaving people around. Nanny Joy was fine, and she could make the villa dustless.

He felt good to have a hot meal ready when he was tired.

As soon as Nanny Joy finished speaking, the door opened, and Arya felt she had her heart suddenlyin her mouth.

Although she was fully prepared and knew that she would see Xavier soon, Arya's body still becameuncontrollably stiff.

Xavier came in from outside the door, unbuttoned his coat, and called out to Nanny Joy. "Get me aglass of water."

"I'll do it." Arya took the initiative to do that. Sooner or later, she had to face it.

Nanny Joy handed her the glass of water.

Arya got the water and walked out of the kitchen. Xavier was leaning back on the sofa and rubbinghis temples with his eyes closed, looking tired.

Arya mustered up her courage and said softly, "Your water."

Hearing that it was not Nanny Joy's voice, Xavier suddenly opened his eyes and saw the woman infront of him. A strange emotion flashed across his eyes. He looked away, unwilling to admit thesurprise of seeing her at that moment.

"Who allowed you in? Get out now!" He pretended to be calm.

Arya pretended not to hear, poured the water in front of him, and said, "Dinner is ready..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Xavier grabbed her wrist and pulled her. "Get out of herenow!"

Arya took his hand and shook her head. "I'm not leaving..."

Xavier sneered. "Who do you think you are? You can come here whenever you want, and leavewhenever you want?"

Arya was dragged out by Xavier and then he closed the door.

"I'm sorry!"

Xavier paused for a few seconds before closing the door.

Nanny Joy sighed slightly. "Why must he do that?"

He cared about her, but he had to pretend that he didn't.

Xavier was absent-minded at dinner and lost his appetite after a few bites.

He sat on the sofa, smoking.

When Nanny Joy cleaned up the kitchen, she saw that Arya was still standing outside. So shecouldn't help but say something for her. "It's cold in December. She's still standing outside.”"Leave her alone!"

Xavier got up and went upstairs. He didn't see her. He walked into the room without turning on thelights. He lifted the curtain and saw Arya standing at the door.

Xavier took a drag. He wondered what was the purpose of her visit.

"Last time, you approached me for shares. What are you doing for this time? For Marshal? What onearth is your grudge with the Harrison Family that you are even willing to sell yourself out?”

Xavier knew that Arya would not come here only because she was unwilling to part with him.

It was almost ten o'clock when Nanny Joy tidied up the room, but Xavier didn't come down.

The person outside was still standing.

Nanny Joy couldn't help her, so she went into her room.

The north wind in the middle of the night was like a sharp knife, which hurt people's faces. Arya'scold face turned red.

But she did not move at all.

Xavier could not fall asleep. He kept tossing and turning.

It snowed at two o'clock.

This was the first snow since winter. It was furious snow. The snow wholly covered the ground in halfan hour, and the big trees all turned white.

Listening to the sound outside, Xavier cursed in a low voice. It was Caspar whether his curse was atthe untimely snow, Arya, or his uncertainty.

He took a thick cotton coat and went downstairs. He opened the door and threw it out. "If you wantto die, go somewhere else. Don't freeze to death in front of my door and make my place dirty!"Arya's body froze. She didn't care if Xavier was still angry or not. She rushed up, hugged him, andraised her head to kiss his lips.

Xavier froze and even forgot to react. He pretended not to care about this woman, but in fact, hehad no resistance to her. As long as she took the initiative, he would surrender.

"Thank you.” Arya buried her face in his chest.

Xavier raised his eyebrows. " what exactly are you thanking me for?"

Arya told Xavier what Jacob had told her.

"So, you're here to repay me?" Xavier raised his chin and looked at her. "How can you repay me?"Arya's heart tightened. He was still him. Even if he really helped her, he would not respect her.

She forced a smile and unbutton her clothes. "As long as you like it, I can do anything.”

Xavier gritted his teeth. This woman must have come to anger him on purpose.

Would he die young because of their conversation?

Even if he wouldn't die young, he would definitely live a few years less.

He breathed extremely hard to calm himself down. He pretended to be undisturbed and buttonedher. "If you came here to sell your body to me, then you can leave now. I'm not interested in youanymore..."

Looking at Xavier's forbearance, Arya's felt slightly moved. She refused to let go. "No, I like you.”At this moment, she could not tell whether this sentence was true or it was just her trick to seducehim.
