Naturally, Zivon had no idea that his meal had been drugged, and he headed upstairs to resume work after dinner. However, moments after he had finished his tasks and watched Sophia fall asleep, he felt an odd sensation within his body… An extremely familiar one. After all, this wasn’t the first time he had been drugged by someone…! Was the culprit tired of living or something?! Now extremely irked, Zivon immediately attempted to leave the room… Only to realize that it had been locked shut! Not even the finger scanner appeared to be working! Thoroughly displeased, Zivon turned to glare at the sleeping woman. Only she could manage to come up with this elaborate plan…! With that in mind, he strode over to her side before grabbing her by the collar and growling, “How dare you, Sophia…! Did you think drugging me would be without consequences…?!” Instantly startled awake, Sophia couldn’t help but quiver in fear as she stared at the terrifying man. It took her a while, but she eventuall

She just wanted to help Sophia! However, as she was attempting to come up with a proper explanation, she suddenly realized that she couldn’t do so. After all, if she outed Sophia now, then she wouldn’t be able to set the two up again after this! As for Zivon, the longer he stared at the pale-faced woman, the angrier he got! Weren’t women supposed to be possessive of their men?! Why was this one trying to set him up with another person instead?! Hell, hadn’t she done this on multiple occasions?! Unwilling to allow her to abuse his tolerance any further, Zivon glared at her while growling, “You want me to be with her that much, huh…?! Very well, then! I hope you won’t regret your choice! However, don’t think for one second that I’ll allow you to reunite with Mark! You’ll stay by my side forever, even if you have to become my mistress!” …S-so she wasn’t going to be able to free herself from him even after he got together with Sophia?! Though the terrified woman knew that Zivon was o

She simply hadn’t expected to be hurt over and over again because of all this! Since Xavia remained silent, Sophia was prompted to add, “Admit it, Xavia! You never planned to abandon Young Master Burton! After all, you wouldn’t be concerned with such minute details if you truly wanted to leave!” Now infuriated, Xavia retorted, “Just because I want to make amends with you, it doesn’t mean that I’m willing to harm those who were kind to me! Don’t you think smearing my reputation for your gain is a bit too much?” “Like you’re qualified to talk about that! Regardless, after all that’s happened, are you really going to tattle on me? You should know that I’ve removed any parts of my involvement from the surveillance footage, so good luck trying to use that! At the end of the day, you never had to follow my instructions, yet you did! Now enough of all this!” scoffed the angered Sophia as she stormed off before slamming her room door shut. Naturally, Xavia felt incredibly irked by all

Sighing in response, Angus then said, “…Though we seers can predict a person’s overall fate, we can’t actually reveal Heaven’s will…” After stroking his beard one final time, Angus then left, leaving Xavia looking rather depressed… The fact that she knew that she’d eventually be in danger… It felt like Angus had just strapped a timebomb onto her body… How nerve-wracking…! Mark himself was prompted to say, “…Sorry for that… I was hoping to resolve your negative thoughts, but I never expected that…” Noticing how worried he was for her sake, Xavia forced a smile as she replied, “…It’s fine. Remember, Grandpa Angus called me a lucky star, so I’m sure nothing too terrible will happen. I’ve already made it this far anyway, so nothing will be able to stop me! I’m sure of it! Also… I really appreciate all this.” “You know, I’ve been feeling utterly terrible in the past few days, wondering if I’d continue hurting those around me over and over again… However, after hearing what Grandpa A

Knowing that there was no point trying to explain things to him, Xavia was prompted to ask, “…Look, what can I do for you to stop being angry with me? You should know that it won’t do either of us good for Sophia to see us like this.” Really? Zivon felt it was perfectly fine. After all, Xavia hadn’t even considered his feelings when she secretly met up with Mark behind his back! In the end, Zivon replied, “…I’ll allow you to change your clothes, but first… You have to endure ten minutes of punishment.” Before Xavia could even reply, Zivon began domineeringly having his way with her… By the ten-minute mark, Xavia really had no idea how she had even survived for that long… After all, his punishment was a completely new experience to her…! When she was finally allowed to get her clothes in the closet, she couldn’t help but notice how wretched she looked in the dressing mirror… It almost felt like she had just barely survived making her way through a thunderstorm… But now wasn’t th
