Chapter 447
Xavier found an elegant Italian restaurant and booked a table on the beach with a night view.
After ordering, he poured her a glass of red wine and shook his glass:
“I didn’t realize you have a daughter, Ms. James.”
Olivia snorted coldly. “There’s a lot you don’t know.”
“Where’s Lyla’s daddy?”
She was silent for a moment before looking up into the night and replying coldly, “Dead.”
Xavier froze slightly. “Is he really dead, or just dead to you?”
“What do you think?” Olivia narrowed her eyes, lowered her head, and took a sip of red wine. “The wine’s pretty good.”
Xavier laughed dryly and clinked her glass with his. “Alright, forget about it. Anyway, I don’t mind that you were married, and I don’t mind that you have a kid.
“Lyla’s cute. I like her.”
Olivia almost spilled the wine she had just drunk. She looked at the man opposite her in shock. “Mr. Hemsworth, don’t you think you’re being flirty? We’ve only met a few times.”
However, Xavier looked calm. “Ms. James, do you believe in love at first sight?”
‘Love at first sight…’
Olivia was suddenly lost in thought.
She believed it. She eventually crumbled to pieces for that light, unable to recover.
Therefore, she no longer believed it.
Love at first sight was unreliable, too ethereal, and too unreal. There was no way they could last forever.
Endless suspicion and sudden betrayal would always confuse people.
After a long time, she said, “Love at first sight is the worst. Over time, you’ll find they’re not who you thought they were.”
Xavier put down his glass and looked at her. “Have you ever been hurt in love?”
