what is your plan

Riley

Riley raised her head, asking him,

"Do you want to come back to the house for dinner tonight?". Xavier loosened his tie still keeping silent.

"I learned to make a few dishes from Auntie shu, don't you want to try them out?". Hearing this Xavier finally looked her in the eye and asked.

"You? Cooking?". The way he said it was as though she was a rich lady who would not even dip her fingers in spring water!

And truly she was once was like that.. Cough, but she could proudly say she was different now! Infact everything was different now

"En. Do you want to give it a taste?". Riley glanced up at him her brows tilted with her smile waiting patiently for his response. Seeing this Xavier smiled coldly.

"Since medicine didn't work, are you planning to use poison on me this time?". Indeed, she had made too many mistakes After all, the use of the medicine had only Occurred once and that was yesterday.

In the past... Thinking back, Riley too felt that she had been very willful. With her new experiences in mind, the person she was in the past seemed almost ridiculous so he had all the rights in to world to be conscious around her.

Riley raised her head to look at him causing the light to fall on her neck. He did not know if she did this on purpose or not, but this caused the love bites on her collarbone to come into his line of sight.

"Just using that medicine alone caused you to torture me like this for the whole night. If I still used poison then don't you think the first one to die will probably still be me!". She spoke openly, her eyes on Xavier, as he stared at her with his dark eyes.

Indeed, last night he did not hold back whatsoever. This morning when he looked at how she limply laid on the sheets, her body littered with the marks left behind by him, he headed for the office immediately unwilling to hear how she would once more insist on a divorce when she woke up.

"After last night, based on the hatred you hold for me, it's not surprising if you tried to kill us both together". Xavier said with his cold gaze still on her.

"Ahh, Killing us both together? Why don't I just attach a time bomb to myself to come and find you instead of going through the stress of cooking you a meal! Wouldn't that be more straightforward and satisfying?". Xavier did not bother to pay her any mind. Riley remained standing there for a long time with her eyes fixed on him.

Even as Xavier treated her like air focusing on his work like he was the only one in the room, she still stood there unmoved making Xavier to rubb his brows before asking.

"What on earth do you want from me?".

"I want to have dinner with you". Riley replied straight to the point making Xavier frowned.

"So for the sake of a divorce, you really are willing to do anything. What act are you putting on this time?". Soft tactics seemed not to have affect on this man, Did that mean she had to go hard? She went forward and laid her head on his desk, staring at him closely as he worked.

They say that a man is the most attractive when he is working but she felt that her husband was attractive at every moment. In the past, which screw exactly was she missing in her head that she insisted on divorcing this handsome man?

As Xavier flipped open a page of a document Riley quickly moved her hand forward to block him from reading it. Before she had decided to take she action she already noticed that it was just the company's progress report so Even if she messed with it there probably would not be much trouble caused.

"Removed your hand". Xavier could no longer ignore her because if her action. Riley leaned her face close to him, smiling brightly.

" You say, do you want to go home with your lovely wife?". Riley indeed had an attractive face At this moment, her smile made her look more like a charming young lady. Trying to keep himself call he spoke calmly,

"I'm still working." Riley blinked, unmoved.

"It's not a problem, I can wait for you to finish your work and then we will return home together".

"I still have a video conference tonight so it's been if You head back first." Just as before his eyes did not hold much emotion.

"That's fine! I'll wait for you!". Hearing Xavier closed the file in his hands and stared at her coldly.

"Tell me, What exactly are you playing at this time around?". Riley's expression especially calm She even fluttered her lashes at him on purpose.

"I've already slept with you. What more can I play at?".

"." Xavier really wanted to throw her out of his office. But he just said that he had a video conference and he really left for it with second thought.

Xavier really did not plan on leaving anytime to spend with her whatsoever.

Two hours passed just like that, and Xavier still did not return once. Having just fallen asleep on the sofa, Riley woke in shock once more.

Could it be that he planned to just leave her here without any care? Would he really leave her here to sleep for the whole night?

After all, what she did in the past was really too much It was not completely unlikely that he planned to leave her behind or even plan some other ways to even avoid her.

But after thinking for a while, Riley stood up to pushed open the other door in the office open. Inside was Xavier's break room.

There was a bathroom, a bed, and some living necessities. Riley who was used to showering every night before 10 p. m. In her past life she sadly could do so when she was imprisoned, there in the prison she was only allowed to shower once a month. As a result that even as she was reborn now she often felt that ants were crawling on her body. Now she was sensitive to the point where even the slightest bit of sweat on her body made her very uncomfortable.

Should she take the chance to shower before Xavier returns?. With this thought in mind she walked in, grabbing a random white dress shirt from the closet.

Ten minutes later, Xavier returned from his meeting to see that Riley had suddenly vanished The office was completely quiet, with Riley's fresh scent faintly lingering in the air. Xavier stared at the empty office, remaining silent for a long moment. Just as he was about to pick up his jacket from the back of the office chair, he suddenly heard movements coming from his break room.

Was she still here?

Without knowing what was going on in the office currently Riley walked out of the bathroom in Xavier's white dress shirt, drying her long hair that was still dripping wet.

At the sound of the door opening, she glanced up to See Xavier by the door.

She instantly stiffened Xavier on the other hand did not expect to see such a scene when he entered. Not only did Riley shower here, but she stood under the warm light of the room in his shirt.

Her eyes seemed slightly teary and dazed His shirt was very large, and the collar shifted at this moment to reveal a large patch of snow-white skin.

Riley felt burned by his gaze and consciously rushed to cover her own legs, flushing red at the awareness of the skin she could not cover.

"I thought you planned to leave me here all alone tonight.." She placed down the towel, finding a random excuse to explain why she was in the room without permission. Xavier looked away from her.

"Wear your own clothes!". It was obvious that he was trying to keep the beast in him in check.

"I didn't bring clothes to change, but I called home earlier. Someone should be coming to drop some off soon." She walked towards him as she spoke,

"Are you done with your work? Can we head back to the villa together now? Or are you still not interested in tasting my meal?". She said. Xavier stared silently at this Woman who did not seem to be afraid of death, given that she dared to dress like this in front of him without any form of concern.

"What time is it? It should be quite late by now". Riley spoke to herself while holding up his wrist to look at his white Gucci watch. The time was already nearing at 10 p. m.

The watch was nice to look at It suited his noble disposition perfectly. A man with such a good taste, how on earth did he fall for a proud, spoilt princess like her? Riley was about to let go of his wrist when she felt his hand tighten around hers.

He suddenly pulled her against the wall, directly pressing her on it with his own body.

"Riley, what exactly are you planning this time!". His eyes were dark and his voice was low yet still full of warning. Riley stared at him for a long time before speaking up not even afraid of his looks for once, her voice firm with determination as she spoke.

"After last night, I had decided to rethink our relationship seriously...". Hearing her say such unbelievable words Xavier stared at her coldly.

"Why did you Suddenly come so sensible? What's the price? Divorce?". In her past life the matter of a divorce harmed her so much that she had really pushed things too far way more than she was supposed to. Riley lifted her face to meet his gaze straight on with her bright eyes.

She bit her lips lightly, pulled down his neck with force and leaned forward to kiss those cold lips of his.
