Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1352
With that thought in mind, Fabian agreed, “Alright, since you have a business proposition, it would be foolish of me to refuse. I’ll see you at your office then.”
Although it was common for people of their stature to use unscrupulous means for revenge, Fabian wasn’t worried. Despite the animosity between him and Xavier, Fabian was still confident of Xavier’s character.
On the other hand, Hannah was very worried about Fabian when she saw how aggressive Xavier was. Pulling Fabian back forcefully, she shook her head and remarked, “Whatever it is, we will talk in your office tomorrow.”
When Xavier heard her response, he assumed that she didn’t want Fabian to know that she had requested his help in secret. Nevertheless, he was still peeved by the sight of Fabian and softly reassured Hannah, “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything rash.”
Reading between the lines, he was telling her that he won’t reveal her true intentions to Fabian before he had rescued her from Fabian’s evil grasp.
Hannah was stumped. What the hell? Who are you kidding? Are you calling what just happened “nothing at all?” If I hadn’t held Fabian back, both of you would have gotten into a fight.
A cold glint flashed in Fabian’s eyes when he heard what Xavier said to Hannah. He couldn’t help but feel outraged at the fact that Xavier was still interested in his wife. I’ll definitely be there at your office to see what sort of tricks you have up your sleeve.
“Since you have agreed to come over, please make sure you keep your word. Or else, I’ll lose my respect for you,” Xavier sneered before he left.
“Fabian, don’t stoop to his level. I think he assumes I turned down his interview because you didn’t allow me to do it. That’s why he stormed over. Don’t be angry. Also, whatever sh*tty business he proposes is likely a ruse, so please don’t go.”
After Xavier had left, Hannah sat Fabian down and persuaded him.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
Stroking Hannah’s head with a smile, Fabian stared at her longingly as she spoke.
