Arya nodded and walked through the hall from the small door behind to the backyard. There were many green plants there. Xavier was in a wheelchair under a cherry tree. She walked over lightly and stood behind him with her hands on his shoulders.
Xavier was unsurprised and reached out to hold her hand. "Is he okay?"
"Yes." Arya replied softly. "He's fine. The doctor said he is in good condition."
He didn't say anything after the question. The air seemed to condense, so quiet that he could clearly hear her breathing.
Arya walked to him and squatted down to look at him. She could feel that something was wrong. She hoped that he could tell her that she would bear it with him.
"Is something wrong?" She asked.
Xavier lowered his eyes and looked at her, with his hand covering her cheek. "It's so good to meet you."
Arya leaned her head on his lap and smiled. "Then you have to treat me well for the rest of your life. Never leave me."
Xavier smiled and reached out to pull her up so that she could sit on his lap. He could feel her intentions. Ever since he couldn't stand up, she always squatted in front of him to make him more comfortable.
Arya naturally sat on his lap, reached out to hook his neck, smiled lightly, and said, "Why don't you answer me? Don't you plan on spending the rest of your life with me?"
Xavier thought for a while and then slowly said, "I really need to think about this..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Arya kissed him, stopping him from talking. The next second, she was kissed by him.
Xavier rubbed her lips gently and could clearly feel all her breath. The hands around her waist were also tightening.
Harriet came to the backyard to ask them to eat, but when she saw this scene, her eyes darkened. She liked Xavier, even if he was in a wheelchair now.
Seeing that he and Arya were so close, she was furious.
'How can Arya be with Xavier? And now Daisy accepts her and treats her so well.'
Harriet was grudging.
'What does Arya have? Henry doesn't like her yet.'
The more she thought about it, the more she felt unfair. 'I'm no worse than her. Why does she live better than me?'
She turned around and was a little unwilling to leave. She kicked a flowerpot by the door and made a noise. Arya quickly pushed Xavier away. She was afraid of being seen by others. Looking at the source of the sound, she saw Harriet standing there.
Arya was not relaxed anymore.
However, Harriet remained calm. "I came to ask you to have the meal."
Then she turned around and ran away.
Xavier looked back at the pot and raised his eyebrows. When he came, he noticed the pot and could not get in the way. How did she knock it down?
"I'll push you in." Arya stood up and walked around behind him.
When they entered the room, the people in the room stopped talking.
Harriet advised Henry to let Arya and Xavier stay at home. As for her purpose, only she knew it.
Arya sat down and Xavier gave Harriet a cold look.
At the dinner table, the servants began to serve when everyone arrived. Henry did not eat first, nor did anyone else.
He glanced at Arya and finally looked at Xavier. "You guys should live in the Old Residence."
