Chapter 1078
Yorrick pinched the foot of the glass, took a sniff at the aroma of the wine, and smiled.” You’re quite a wary person, Ms.
Mayweather.”
“I’m in an enclosed room with another man, so how can I not be a little more cautious?” Xyla changed her sitting posture casually and placed her legs on the couch. “I still don’t know your name, Mr. Rich Boy. After all, I have to accompany you and act around you in the coming three months. I have to know at least what your last name is.
He lifted the glass and glanced at her through the transparent glass. “My last name is Hathaway.”
Xyla was astounded for a short moment.
This last name actually a thing in Zlokova?”
“It seems that you don’t pay attention to the news, Ms. Mayweather.” Yorrick believed she really did not know his identity.
‘If she were trying to play hard-to-get, it would be impossible for her to put such a question forward.’
“I’m not interested in the news.” Xyla flipped through the contract. “Since I’ve signed the contract, it’s time for me to take my leave.”
The doorbell rang.
Xyla looked at him. “Are you expecting other guests?”
Yorrick shook the glass lightly. “A person who would come looking for me at this time of the day, who do you think it’d be?”
Xyla had a hunch, so she got up, walked to the door, and opened it. When Jodie, standing outside the door, saw her again, her expression changed. “How could it be…”
Xyla held the door with one hand. “Ms.
Smalls, what are you doing here? Are you looking for my honey?”
“Honey?” Jodie’s face turned pale. She looked into the room in disbelief, and Yorrick was sitting on the couch as if he had just come out of the shower.
She pushed Xyla aside, broke in, and stood in front of Yorrick. “Mr. Hathaway, would you rather accept her than me?”
