"Xavier..."
Her grip tightened unwittingly.
She had been waiting for Xavier to come back for almost two months. As time went by, the hope was slimmer.
Her vision was blurred gradually.
She was heartbroken as if her heart was pricked.
At this moment, a knock at the door of the office jolted Arya back to her thoughts. She wiped her face, put the ring back on her finger, cleared her throat and said, "Come in."
The secretary opened the door and saw Edward come in with his suitcase.
Arya was stunned.
Didn't he just get married?
Why was he back?
"Where's Jacob?"
He went back from abroad and called Jacob, but Jacob didn't answer, so he had to come to the company.
Arya looked at him. "Maybe he's busy. Did you come back only to find him?"
Edward put his suitcase aside and sat on the sofa. He didn't look very energetic, and his tone was deep. "I have questions for him."
Arya stood up, walked around the desk, walked to the door and looked at the secretary. "Get a wet towel."
The secretary quickly went to the toilet and soaked a towel. She squeezed some water out and brought it over.
Arya handed him a towel. "Just got off the plane?"
Edward took the towel, wiped his face, and replied, "Yes."
Arya walked to the desk and called Jacob. The phone was on, and she said, "Come over."
Jacob soon came over, only to find Edward was in his office. He raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "Why are you here?"
Arya frowned at Jacob and asked. "Why are you so brash?"
