The Love Trap of the Ruler.
Chapters 121. An uncomfortable feeling.
“Why are you asking that?” ask Graciella.
Xavier just frowned. She was also confused as to why she asked Graciella that question. But his feelings say that he must have been in contact with this woman, his feelings are so sure but where and how?
“I don't know you. Not that we met this morning,” Graciella said. Greciella was also quite shocked by the words that were thrown from her lips. How could he have just met this man this morning but now they were again sitting at one table. It's not Graciella's nature. Usually he is quite covered with men.
Xavier continued to stare towards Graciella who was feeling uneasy was also stared at by Xavier so.
“Then, if I may ask, how did you get your wound?” xavier asked could no longer hold himself back any longer. It was like there was a feeling he really wanted to vent, but he didn't know what it was and how.
Graciella frowned. It was not a question he had to answer to a man he had just met.
“I get it when I do something,” Graciella said it's impossible to say that she got it when she tried to kill herself because of the problem with her ex-husband, at least that's what she believed and remembered all along.
“Do what?” xavier asked like an urge and interrogated Graciella. Of course Xavier's attitude to Graciella is excessive. He never even told anyone about this. Only certain people who knew about this incident understood about it.
“Why should I say that to you?” graciella asked again with a slight annoyance, she really did not want to talk about it. The daughter in the middle of them only frowned seeing this Madam and Master talking to each other in a language that she did not understand.
“Mrs, are you ready to order?” asked the boy's father when he came to bring the menu.
Graciella gave Xavier a quick glance and turned her upset face into a sweet smile.
“Please do not smile sweetly with others,” said Xavier who slid just from his lips. Xavier was at a loss as to why he was saying that, again, like De Javu. He felt like he was in a situation like this.
Hearing that made Graciella frown and look at Xavier. How could this man forbid her from smiling with another man? What right?
“Master, just serve Angeline first. Give her whatever she wants. Angeline, any message you want, no need to hesitate yes,” said Graciella stroking Angeline's head.
Graciella then looked towards Xavier who was just silent. “Why can't I smile with others?”
Xavier just plays his jaw. He doesn't know why all day? He's like he's not and things are happening without him being in control. Xavier is not a man who is easy to care about a woman, but since meeting Graciella, he can't even get away from this woman. Even he was willing to become a stalker in order to be with Graciella. He also said strange things but what disturbed him so much and became a burden on his mind now were the images that appeared in his head. He was sure the picture was from the missing pieces of his memory. Butwhy? It even appeared when he was with Graciella.
Xavier and Graciella suddenly get distracted when Graciella's phone on the table goes off. Graciella looked directly at the screen. A video call from Stevan. Xavier saw Stevan's name appear, he frowned deeper. Stevan? Is it possible Stevan was his best friend first?
Graciella glanced at Xavier before she answered the video call. Xavier was silent with his face flat.
“Nona Graciella!” stevan exclaimed as soon as their call was connected. He was so happy to see this woman.
“Mr Stevan? How are you?” graciella said she saw the man who always showed her cheerful face. During his 4 years in America, this man often contacted him. Sometimes he shares stories about the state of his country to make Graciella not feel too far from her country. Besides Daren, Stevan is Graciella's best friend right now.
Graciella chuckles at Stevan's behavior. Of course he's too used to Stevan's temptations. But for Xavier who heard that made him feel uncomfortable. There was a sense of emotion that just appeared to fill his chest cavity until he felt quite a difficulty in breathing.
“What are you doing Mr Stevan?” graciella asked to see Stevan, who looked like he was getting ready to wear his clothes. In his country it is morning.
“You know what day it is? Today is raising my rank. I really hope you're here now,” Stevan said with a hopeful look at Graciella.
“Really? Congratulations if so! Uh! Too bad I can't see you. Next week when I come home will give you something to gift your rank. Once again congratulations on raising your rank,” said Graciella looking happy. Of course it makes Xavier's face wry. This lady? It's not clear that he tortured Xavier indirectly. But why does he feel tormented? one more thing that makes Xavier confused.
“Yes, from now on you should call me General Stevan,” Stevan said with great pride.
“Iya, yes, I will call you so,” Graciella said. Xavier was just trying to hold himself back. His hands were firmly clenched.
“So you're really going home next week. I'll pick you up at the airport,” Stevan said.
“No need, Laura will pick me up,” Graciella said. Xavier glanced at Graciella, apparently next week this woman will return to the country.
“Laura? She can't possibly take care of you, I'll still pick you up, Miss Graciella,” Stevan said with a slight teasing emphasis as she called Graciella's name.
It instantly made Xavier jump to his feet. Hearing such a familiar conversation between Graciella and Stevan left her burning. Graciella only frowned while looking at Xavier who looked at Graciella with her sharp gaze.
“I go first,” Xavier's heavy voice sounded. Of course it makes Graciella increasingly frown. She's the one who asked Graciella to drink hot chocolate, but all of a sudden she just left.
“Nona Graciella, are you with someone?” stevan asked faintly hearing the voice of a man.
“Oh, yes, I am with a friend,” Graciella said. The words of the friend that came out of Graciella's mouth made Xavier even more uncomfortable.
“Ah! Miss Graciella! You have to remember that I'm here waiting for you,” said Stevan again who did not know that behind this phone Xavier had red eyes held back his anger.
Xavier without saying anything immediately walked away leaving Graciella who was just frowning her forehead and following the man's movements. He broke through the still heavy rain. What's with that guy? Think Graciella.
Xavier was really sultry hearing Stevan's words. That man, how did you know Graciella? Xavier was never again in contact with Stevan because of Stevan's involvement in Malagha's death. But how could she also be related to Graciella? Xavier whose entire body was already drenched from the rain immediately stopped for a moment. Is it possible that Graciella has something to do with her past?
Xavier immediately picked up his phone and immediately called one of his aides who was now in his country.
“Find all the files about Miss Graciella Luo, I want to know all about her. Tell everyone tonight! Send it to me directly!” xavier said as he glanced at Graciella who looked like she was smiling and was happy to feed the hot brown Angeline he ordered.
