NovelEnglishXavier heard footsteps and looked toward the door. Yvette didn't call out to him but walked right up to him instead. "Did you injure Claude?" Xavier's breath caught in his throat.
"Don't lie," Yvette pressed.
Xavier felt a pang of guilt and responded in a muffled voice, "Yes." "Are you serious? You hit him?" Yvette couldn't believe it.
Despite being visually impaired, he had managed to beat Claude-and severely at that. Yvette was furious beyond words, and she lashed out at Xavier, striking him hard on the shoulder. Xavier's brows knit together in shock. He hadn't expected Yvette to hit him over Claude. Though the punch wasn't hard, it bothered him.

Despite what he was thinking, Xavier didn't dare say it out loud. "Yvvy, guys butt heads all the time, especially since we're rivals in love. A bit of a scrap is nothing to worry about." "A scrap, you say? Ray said Claude is still not completely out of danger!" Yvette was enraged, and she threw another hard punch at him.
Xavier didn't dodge. For sreason, seeing Yvette defend another man made him want to fly over to Claude and finish him off.
"It won't happen again," he said aloud despite his thoughts.
Yvette was still fuming. But no matter how much she beat him, it didn't seem to have much effect.
She thought of how Claude had ended up in the hospital because of Xavier. She couldn't just let him off easily. So she grabbed his arm and pinched him hard.

"I give you a tiny pinch, and you're all up in arms. What about Claude, huh?" she snapped.
"He's done so much for me. If it hadn't been for him, I would've died abroad long ago. But what about you? What have you done?" Yvette still wasn't satisfied and pinched him harder.
For once, Xavier offered no resistance. The injustice he felt was unprecedented. "But what if I was jealous?" Yvette was taken aback.

"Sorry, sweetheart. I'm coming back right now. I've bought you lots of treats." Wette reassured him. "Okay, cback soon." Noah quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
