Chapter 61
Lily's feelings for Xavier died just when they had reached their peak.
The divorce had cso suddenly that her heart had instantly been shattered to pieces, but her feelings for
Xavier couldn't be withdrawn so quickly.
She could only assure herself that experience was the best teacher she had, and that after this, there would be
no next time.
"Are you underestimating me? I've had at least five... two boyfriends, you know," Maryanne retorted, feeling
somewhat diffident when it cto relationships.
She had once envied how Lily's eyes would sparkle when she talked about Xavier, and she also wanted to find a
man who would make her look like that. She eventually dated two men, but both relationships ended because of
various reasons.
After breaking up, Maryanne felt more relief than sadness. Her feelings for her exes barely counted as love; she
merely fancied them.
Hugging her legs, Lily curled up on the couch. She couldn't detach herself from the bad mood caused by
y being deceived by Xavier. Maryanne couldn't bring herself to reprimand her anymore. "Just think of it as
getting bitten by a dog. It's not the first time, after all." That was what Lily thought when she was coerced to go
back to him last time. It helped to ease the pain in her heart.

"Eat something." Maryanne handed her the breakfast she bought. "You still have to work. Don't wear yourself
out..."
Lily took the breakfast and forced herself to wolf it down. Along with the food, she swallowed down her bitterness
and complicated feelings.
In fact, the anxiety over the unfinished materials from last night also plagued her. She had no idea how Nadia
would make things difficult for her.
Xavier naturally woke up at 6:30 am. Even though he was tired from the night before, he still woke up on time.
Lily, who he had been holding in his arms, was gone. The messy bed was empty except for him.
He had a feeling that Lily had left.
She wouldn't be downstairs preparing a hearty breakfast for him like usual. She wouldn't urge him to cdown
and eat. Xavier grabbed his phone from the bedside table and dealt with a few urgent work matters. Then, he
sank into thought.
A sense of uneasiness prickled at him. Something about what happened between them last night didn't sit right.
But it was Timothy who lied, and Lily had dressed like that because she wanted to seduce him.
Why should he feel guilty?
With that thought, Xavier felt more at ease. The frustration in his eyes cleared.
Lily, who ran off this morning, was just as ungrateful as always.
Scoffing inwardly, Xavier got up and put on his suit. Timothy had just arrived to pick him up when he went
downstairs.
Seeing him cout, Timothy quickly got out of the car and opened the door for him.
Xavier crossed his legs once he got in the car, and picked up his iPad to skim through his schedule.
"Mr. Fulton, the police have news,"
Timothy said, revving the engine as
he continued. "It aE thabthiel

family in Hayden's case." Whether
they intended to frighten Lily or
murder her remained unknown. The

"How's Mr. Hammock doing with the investigation?" Xavier glanced at him. His voice was cold.
Timothy had been in contact with Sylvester. "He's still looking for the final piece of evidence."
Xavier frowned. "Tell him to hurry up."
