“Huh?”
Xavier pointed at her outfit Olivia suddenly realized that she had not changed her clothes and nodded.
“Yeah, I just came back from dinner. You got here at the right time.”
“With who?”
“A client.”
“Client? A guy, or a girl?”
Olivia felt uneasy upon being questioned, and she looked at him. “Xavier, I can’t talk about my clients
too much.”
A trace of coldness flashed across his eyes. He looked at her outfit and said, “Sorry, I shouldn’t be
asking this much. It’s just that…”
“What is it?”

After saying that, Xavier forced a smile. “I’m a little jealous, sorry.”
Seeing how honest he was, Olivia was taken aback and had no idea what to say.
It was neither appropriate to explain nor not explain.
Xavier bent down and took the bags. “Do you want to have some apples? I’ll peel them for you.”
“No…”
Just as she was about to say no, she noticed the weird expression on his face and changed her mind.
“Don’t peel it, just wash it. I like it with the skin.”
Xavier was dumbfounded, but he chuckled. “Okay. Give me a minute.”
Olivia felt distressed seeing him like this.
Although she did not want to date him, he still saved her life, and she felt mixed feelings about letting
her life savior feel embarrassed.
She then went back into her room and changed her dress and accessories.
Looking at her casual look in front of the mirror, she pursed her lips.
She was fully aware of her own weaknesses.
As she was betrayed before, she took kindness very seriously, but sometimes it could also be a bad
thing.
She stood there for quite a while.
Finally, she bit her lips and knew that some things were meant to be shared.
When she came out, Xavier had arranged a variety of fruits and different snacks on the table.
“I have no idea which one you like, so I bought a lot for you to try.”
Olivia was stunned and nodded. “Okay.”
The two sat down. Xavier peeked at her and asked, “That dress was amazing. Why did you change?”
“Oh, I suppose I put on some weight, so that dress is a bit tight for me. I wanted to wear something
comfier.”
Xavier gave her a slice of red velvet cake and asked gently, “Pheebs, you are afraid that I might feel

Olivia took over the cake and tasted it. “Mmm, it’s delicious.”
“Pheebs, I’m sorry for being rash earlier.” As he spoke, he sighed helplessly. “In fact, I mentally
prepared myself before coming to you and thought about what I wanted to say, but the moment I saw
you, I got jealous.”
“Xavier…”
“Pheebs, I’m not a scoundrel or anything. I told you that I wanted to save you and that I don’t need any
repayment.”
Xavier looked up at her. “And I know that you will not reject anything I do because I saved your life and
you want to compensate me. But Pheebs, I don’t want that.”
She was slightly shocked as she looked at him.
She had been assuming that he was a shameless person!
She did not expect him to be so considerate and decent.
“Xavier, you misunderstood me. I should repay you for saving my life. It’s basic decency, and you
did…” didn’t ever cross the line… And even if you
Before she could finish her words, he grabbed her hand and said, “Pheebs, can we begin as friends?”
