THIRD PERSON'S POV
Yves cleared his throat and glared back at Rosalie who was tightly clinging on Xyneth.
Xyneth let out a sigh as she drank her champagne, not morning the two of them.
Rosalie sat beside her while Yves was on the opposite side of them which made the position facing at each other while the table was between them.
It wasn't until Xyneth couldn't take it anymore.
"Rosalie, why do you always glare at him? He is now my boss, you know."Xyneth said making Rosalie dropped her jaw while her eyes was widened to shock.
She looked at Xyneth who keeps on drinking Champagne, "Damn. What?!"
She smiled at her, "Yes. I am the babysitter of his child, tho I still hasn't seen his child but I would seen him tomorrow when I'll start working as their babysitter."
"What the f*ck?! How does this happened?!"She said loudly before she looked at Yves who was calmly drank the Tequila, "You did this on purpose for you to flirt with my best friend, right—Ah... you have a son already, I'm sorry, kindly take good care of your wife and never cheated on her, meaning—don't involve my best friend with your affairs and don't flirt with her."She said while giving him her threatening look.
Yves coldly looked at Rosalie, enough for Rosalie to feel nervous as well as uncomfortable. 'Damn. My instincts are right, this person is dangerous.' Rosalie thought.
Xyneth felt uncomfortable at the happenings right now so she cleared her throat, "Stop it and just have fun."
Rosalie hissed before she look at Xyneth, "Why did you invite your boss?"
Xyneth remember what happened earlier at the cab when she accidentally told her boss about their plan on getting wasted in the Bar and Yves asked the adress of the Bar which they are planning to go to and since it's her boss who asked her, she immediately give the adress of the bar. She's also not expecting that he would come.
"I invited myself. Got a problem with that?"Yves answered coldly.
"Tsk."Rosalie hissed before she grabbed the whole bottle of
champagne and drink all of it. She stood up making Xyneth look at her.
"Where are you going?"She asked her.
Xyneth could clearly saw the redness on Rosalie's cheeks as soon as she drank the champagne.
She smiled at her, "I'm gonna dance and flirt with someone."
Xyneth sighed, "Be careful, and if anything comes up don't hesitate to call my name or to call me. I can punch someone who dares to do something bad to you, okay?"
She nodded her head, "Okay, I understand. I'm still not drunk, besides I also wanted to punch that asshole's face for cheating on me but he's not worth punching for since he's worth killing for. Anyways, I'm gonna have a lots of fun. Ciao."She said before she grabbed the Tequila and went to the zone where the people was partying as well as dancing leaving them two alone.
She cleared her throat before she start eating the Turon and at the same time she would drink Champagne.
Yves broke their silence between them, "I'm sorry for inviting myself here."
Xyneth raised her head while there are still turon on her mouth, she chew it first and gulped before she speak," No, of course not. It's okay for you to be here and accompany us. The more the merrier, besides I also have to apologise if I went straight to the bar instead of working for today."
He shook his head, "Nah. You already asked for a leave besides you already pack you things, right?"She nodded and he continued, "Then it's okay since your work starts tomorrow at 4 in the afternoon."
Xyneth felt relieved at what he said, "Thank you so much for understanding, Sir. I just accompany my closest friend since I have already know that she's a bad drinker and she put herself into a lot of troubles especially when she's drunk so I'm here to guard and to protect her from those."
"If she's a bad drinker, why bother drink if she will put herself in troubles?"Yves asked while still drinking a tequila like it was nothing—like he's just drinking a water.
She sighed," To forget her pain and anger. Mostly, people drink to forget their pain even just for a while. Besides today she's brokenhearted so I don't mind to be in troubles if she would put herself in troubles. She's my closest friend after all and friend always have their backs."
"You've been drinking a lot, are you sure you won't get drunk?"He asked, changing the topic.
She chuckled, "Nah, it's okay. I'm not a light drinker and I won't easily get drunk even if I wanted to. Anyways, do you have someone whom you wanted to forget about?"She asked him while chewing the turon.
*Turon is a filipino food*
He drank the whole tequila which was on the glass before he answered, "Nope. I have none but I have someone whom I'm wishing for her to remember me."
"Oh... your wife?"Xyneth asked and he shook his head.
"My fiancee."He said while he started pouring his glass with rum before he drank it.
Xyneth smiled at him, "Don't worry, when the time comes, she would remember you. Even if the mind would forget, the heart can't so fighting."She send him some encouragement.
"Thanks."He shortly said.
Well, Xyneth knows that her fiancee would remember her in the future. Why? It's because that's what happened in the romance novels which she was currently reading. The woman forgot her husband became of amnesia and reason why she forgot her memories was because she was hit by a truck.
"Nope. She didn't hit by a truck."A cold tone come out from the mouth of Yves.
Xyneth immediately looked at him, "Huh?"
Yves smiled, "You said that she was hit by a truck."
Xyneth finally realize what she said, she never knew that she would say it out loud, "I'm sorry but I wasn't thinking about your fiancee, I was thinking about the character of the novel which I was currently reading about."
"Oh... So, what happened to the woman who lost her memories?"He asked.
"I still don't know but I have the gut feeling that she would remember him and I'm sure that she would remember you.."Xyneth said before she drank the Tequila.
Yves smile, "I hope."
"Sorry for talking to much about your private issues."Xyneth said, looking apologetic.
He chuckled, "It's okay."
Xyneth was about to grab the turon which was on the plate when she heard Rosalie's scream even though the music was loud.
She immediately went to her direction and she saw her being harassed by three men, while the other people on the Dance Floor didn't mind what happened while the other boys was cheering at the three men, looking forward to what would happened next.
Xyneth's blood boil as soon as she saw her closest friend being harassed. Rosalie was glaring at them, struggling, kicking but the other two men was holding her, while the other one is stripping her clothes. Her croptop was ripped of, as soon as they see her without a croptop, only her bra, they whistled and keep on cheering.
Before the man could take off her bra, Xyneth immediately throw a heavy punch on head enough for him to collapse.
The two man take off their hands at Rosalie and they went to her direction to throw a punch but it was stopped when Yves went to their direction to punch the two men, enough for their head to bleed and passed out.
Rosalie immediately went to her direction and Xyneth take off her jacket, revealing her sports bra to cover it Rosalie's body.
"Are you okay?"Asked by Xyneth.
Rosalie nodded her head, "Damn. I'm sober now. F*ck those three pigs. Anyways, I'm not gonna drink again. I'm not gonna let myself to be hurt by a man and I always gave you troubles."
She chuckled, "Don't worry about it."
Rosalie look at Yves, "Thank you for saving me but I still hate your dark aura. Anyways, take good care of my best friend or else I would be a criminal and kill you."
Yves just nodded his head. Rosalie once look at Xyneth to give her a hug, "Thank you. Let's go and let's stop from visiting to any bar."
Xyneth chuckled, "Okay."
Yves went to Xyneth's direction and take of his polo and cover it to Xyneth's body. Luckily, Yves' was still wearing a t-shirt so it's fine if he would take off his polo.
She look at him, "It's okay, you don't need to."
Yves was smile yet his eyes were dark, "Just take it to cover yourself."
"Thank you."Xyneth said before she wore Yves' polo, inhaling Yves' perfume which was on his polo.
Yves just gave her a smile in return.
XYNETH'S POV I was already at the Emperial's Mansion, exactly at 4:00 in the morning. Thank goodness Yves had registered my fingerprint to open the door and gate, or else I would have spent the early morning outside the house. As I entered, the house was quiet, and I noticed a note stuck on the refrigerator. I read the words: "I have something to do today, please take good care of my son. I'll be back at six. Choose any room you prefer." That was the note Yves left. Following Yves' instructions, I looked at the rooms. I went up the stairs to the second floor and saw seven rooms with different colored doors. I chose the sky blue door, which thankfully wasn't locked. I looked around the room, which had a sky blue theme and a queen-size bed. I placed my luggage on the bed and opened it to unpack my clothes into the closet. I placed my laptop, phone, and notepad on the table, while other belongings were placed on another table. I hung my clothes in the closet and arranged my shoes an
XYNETH'S POV I kept glancing at Yves, watching as he observed his son eating. He must be feeling a mix of worry and relief now that Xavy was starting to eat his meals properly. What a good father he is... and I'm sorry for doubting you, Yves. I can't apologize to you directly, but I'll apologize in my mind. Xavy stopped eating and looked at his father. "Do you want to eat, Papa?" Yves smiled and nodded. "Yes, I would like to." I was stunned when he suddenly smiled. My heart skipped a beat as I saw how beautiful he looked when he smiled, especially with his eyes sparkling. He truly loves his son. The way their eyes sparkled was so beautiful that it made my heart tighten a bit. Xavy raised his head and looked up at me while still sitting on my lap. "Do you want to eat too?" I smiled in response to his question. "Yes, but I'm afraid I'm already full. Remember, you fed me earlier?" He nodded and then glanced at his father, who was busy serving food onto his plate. Xavy looked at
XYNETH'S POV "You're sleepy, right? Let's go to sleep," I said, but he shook his head. "I won't..." "But you just said earlier that you were sleepy, right? So let's go to your room and let's sleep," I softly said to him while he was still clinging onto me, and Yves was just staring at us doing nothing. The two maids were busy cleaning the table. "I'm sleepy, but I won't sleep," he insisted, making me sigh. "And why is that? It's already late at night, and you have to sleep so that you will grow fast," I told him, but he just pouted and kept insisting not to. "Can you tell me why you won't go to sleep, dear cutie?" I said sweetly to him, making him grin cheekily, but then his face suddenly turned sad. "Because I'm afraid that this might be a dream created in my mind. I'm afraid to wake up feeling empty, and I'm afraid to wake up without you," he sadly said. I couldn't help but pinch his cute, adorable cheeks. "Silly. Where did you learn to be so sweet? Don't worry, I won't go a
XYNETH'S POV I was huffing, catching my own breath as I ran hard. I didn't know where I was. All I could see was a dark, abandoned building. I didn't know why I was there. I ran as fast as I could, but it was no use. I heard growling noises, the sound of falling leaves being blown by the wind. My heart was beating so fast, and I could feel my legs shaking. I wanted to give up. In any minute, my legs could turn into jelly from nervousness and fear. My legs were trembling, and so was my whole body. My eyes started to water because of the darkness. I was scared of the darkness because I felt like someone might be watching over me. "H-Hello? W-Who are you? W-Why are you doing this?" I didn't know what came to my mind when I uttered those words. It felt natural when I spoke them. Where am I? Why am I here? Where is Yves, and where is Xavy? I clenched my fists to calm my nerves, but I was still shaking. I didn't know why I felt like this. I was startled when someone grabbed my hand.

It's because of these two, they won't get off the bed unless I kiss Yves."Xavy, get down and let's eat food I'm already hungry, I'm sure you feel the same way."I told him but he shook his head while he crossed his arm."I don't want to. Kiss Papa first."He said.He's so persistent."So? Why would you like me to kiss your father?

I exclaimed when she was talking about her ex who just cheated on her with a guy."Yeah, I didn't know that he has another guy, I just found them making out of my room and the man was just happened to be my bestfriend."She said while sipping a cup of coffee.Actually Yves was on a meeting while Xavy was watching netflix on the living room that's why we both have time for the two of us."So what happened when you found out that your boyfriend was making out with your bestfriend and on top of that, it is a guy that he's been secretly dating ?

And why? Does other hate the color of his eyes?"I continuously asked.She nodded, "Yeah, I've heard his co-workers said that it's weird and he's abnormal, why does a person has a green color of his eyes? Something like that."I gritted my teeth in annoyance,
