Masochism? Maria flattened her lips.
"I don't".
She's just putting on a mask and listening to entertainment news. Chris Baton and Belinda Saxon are the big hit actors at this year's Golden Bull Awards, and it is normal that there will be a lot of news about them. Although it was uncomfortable to listen to, she had no feelings for Chris anymore, and she only listened as a stranger's gossip. Moreover she wouldn't tell the news not to speak about them because she's angry with them.
Xavier's inky eyebrows twisted slightly.
"Just can't let go?"
Maria paused. She didn't know what he met by let go.
"What can't I let ........."
Before she could finish speaking, Xavier had already taken a direct stride, pulled Maria's wrist and pulled her downstairs.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing that Xavier didn't only pull her downstairs but also out of the main door, Maria couldn't help but to struggle.
"Where are you going to take me?"
She was still wearing her bunny pajamas and a skin care mask on her face. Xavier didn't even bother to answer her. He just involuntarily open the door and threw her into the car.
The car starts. Maria sat on the co-pilot side, looking at her reflection on the car. She frowned at her face that was still wearing a mask. Wanting to cry without tears. She didn't even know why he's doing all these and where he is taking her to this late night.
She removed the mask and found that there was no trash can in the car, and the dry mask had nowhere to go, so she had to hold it in the palm of her hand.
"What are you going to do with me?"
Xavier looked indifferently ahead and stepped on the accelerator. The car stopped in front of a five-star hotel.
"Get out of the car."
Xavier held the steering wheel, and his face was very cold.
Maria looked at him with wide eyes. So late, he took her out in her pajamas. Even if he wants anything shouldn't it be at her house? Why would he bring her here. Subconsciously, she covered her chest with her hand.
"President McCarthy, I am not a casual woman" she said as if she's gonna cry.
Not many know who her husband is. If anyone she knew sees her here like this and at this hour, they would think she's a call girl.
The man looked at her with disdain.
"You sleep in my bed every day, I want to have anything with you, do you behave such power to resist me? "
Maria was speechless. It seems to be such a truth. But, since it wasn't for this that he brought her here, why then did he bring her here in the middle of the night?
"Get out of the car" Xavier said again in a blank voice.
Maria pursed her lips, obediently obeyed, and got out of the car but then she didn't fail to think of why he is angry at her. As soon as she got out of the car, she was once again pulled by him at the arm and quickly went upstairs.
Xavier took her to a suite. He made sure not to pass where people would see her and that, Maria was really grateful. Entering a door, Xavier sat down gracefully on the sofa, pulling her next to himself, took the remote control and turned on the display on the wall.
Maria looked around the suite and knew that for him to be able to enter without any questioning, this must surely be his private suites. She wanted to ask but then the voice that came out from the TV distracted her.
Looking at the direction, she saw that it was real-time monitor that was playing. Inside the surveillance, Chris and Belinda were sitting carefully on the sofa, with low eyebrows and obedient eyes listening to a man admonishing them.
Judging from the decoration of the room where they are located, they should also be in a room in this hotel. Maria who is still in the rabbit pajamas stiffened where she was, looking at Chris and Belinda inside the surveillance.
"This..."
"They're right next door."
Xavier raised his hand irritably and rubbed his aching eyebrows. His words were very sharp.
"Since you can't let go of Chris so much, I'll give you a chance. You can go over now, beat him up, scold him, and make him pay you back everything you owe. Better still you can end his career".
Xavier's face was so stoic when he talked. It meant that he was very serious. Maria froze. He brought her out so late, just for this? But why?
Xavier pursed her lips and waved her hand. "Forget it, I don't want to do that".
Don't want to do that? Xavier narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Do you want to reconcile with that man?"
The air around him suddenly went cold. The light in Xavier's eyes was cold and dangerous.
"You want me to persuade him to receive you back? "
Maria looked confused. Did she do anything that made him get the notion that she wants to get back with Chris? How could an husband say this to his wife. She know that they haven't been husband and wife for but few days but then that didn't mean he should want to return her.
Since knowing that Chris and Belinda had been together for five years, every time she saw Chris, he's nothing but a disgust to her. Maria skimmed her lips.
"I don't know why you are saying this but then you can be rest assured that, even if Chris kneels down or crawls on both knees to beg me to return to him, I'll definitely not be with him again".
Xaviee looked at her coldly. Halfway through, the corner of the his lips ticked.
"Isn't this all talk?"
"It's not I'm serious" she said with a sad look.
Xavier saw that she was telling the truth so he didn't argue with her. Just her words resolved the anger that he didn't know he has. His face then calm at her.
