The Love Trap of the Ruler.
Chapter 51. Do you love her?
“But didn't you say that you were responsible for the woman you were sleeping with? If you're in charge, do it, just let go.” Stevan leaned his body into his chair. His entire back became tense because of this talk. “Does he demand you to give him accountability?”
Xavier shook his head weakly. Highlight his eyes blurted, “Dad and my mother deliberately hired another woman to claim to be the woman I slept with so that I would no longer look for the woman. So all this time I've been giving other women accountability. Graciella didn't even know that the man was me.” Xavier stared at Stevan.
“Really?” Stevan looked back with a wrinkled face. “How can that be?”
“At that time my father had just become prime minister. Besides, you know what my father's ambition is to make me president. They think this will have a bad effect on my reputation.”
“But she's married to Adrean Han, isn't that your responsibility anymore? let her be happy in her marriage.”
“But, Graciella experienced domestic violence during her marriage to Adrean Han because Adrean Han learned that Graciella had slept with me the week before their marriage. Even yesterday Adrean Han wanted to present Graciella to a striped-nose man until he had such an injury" Xavier told Stevan.
“Ha? How is there such a husband. But indeed his fate is very bad if married to Adrean Han. But why doesn't she want a divorce?”
“I'm sure she's already asking for a divorce. But I think Adrean deliberately didn't want to divorce Graciella. I also have evidence that Graciella has made several reports to the police to report domestic violence committed by Adrean, but several times the report was rejected, no process at all. Looks like it must have been Adrean.” Xavier took out some paper from the map on his desk.
Stevan again frowned deeply, this time leaning his body towards Xavier and observing the paper given by Xavier. For him this Graciella case became serious. Stevan's face became irritated.
“I'm sorry, I can't make all the cops like us and be honest. Then how do you want? you want me to crack down on what Adrean did to Graciella now?” stevan.
Xavier tilted his face staring at Stevan seriously. “You think how are our chances if we attack him now?” ask Xavier.
Stevan narrowed his eyes looking at the paper again, “It is difficult, if only to use this as evidence and with the power he has. It will definitely be difficult and I'm sure he will attack us back.”
“I also think so.”
“What is your real purpose? you just want Adrean to let go of Graciella or do you also want Adrean to get the reward?” ask Stevan again.
“So far I just wanted to make him release Graciella. I want to free Graciella from her. Graciella got all this because of my deed.” Xavier's eyes grew increasingly gloomy. Stevan saw that.
“Alright, I guess if you just want to separate Adrean and Graciella. Just look for evidence strong enough to urge Adrean to release Graciella. But again, the evidence must be so pressing that he can no longer dodge and inevitably follow what Graciella.” wants
“Therefore I want you to get proof of Adrean's relationship with Sarah,” Xavier said. “Evidence of the affair could be very urgent Adrean because of Sarah's status. He can't fight Sarah's family. The other Adrean woman will not be able to make him tremble. I can't possibly investigate it either, you know Sarah's relationship with my family. His father must still think my father snatched the prime minister position from him.”
“But you weren't his first love? I'm sure only you can get close to him,” Xavier's lyrics with lips slightly raised. Trying to seduce Stevan, she knew this man liked to be exalted.
“That's him! I haven't had a relationship with him in a long time. She was really angry when I decided not to have any contact with her first. I didn't expect him to even play with Adrean Han. I'm sure he just wants to make me jealous. Damn it! Means now I have to be sweet with her again," Stevan said with an annoyed and grumbling face.
Xavier just lifted the corner of his lips back up a little. “Not that she's also your first woman, it's possible that you can get back together!”
“No! no way! You don't know how overprotective he is!” stevan. “Hah!! but I'm a loyal friend, for you I'll try!"
“Thanks.”
Stevan nodded loudly a few times. Then he fell silent and glanced at Xavier who was just silently looking towards the data he had. “But Xavier, can I ask earlier?”
“What?”
“Did from the beginning meet Graciella, you already know that she is the woman you slept with three years ago?” stervan asked again while looking at Xavier very seriously.
“No. I met him on a mission. At that time I did not know anything about him.”
“What before you knew she was the woman you were sleeping with, did you already know that Adrean or her husband committed acts of domestic violence against her?”
“Ya.”
“Good. This is my real question, I just wanted to ask. You and Graciella, your feelings for her, do you love her? or is there just a sense of responsibility? or worse, you feel sorry?” Stevan tried to observe the facial mimic issued by Xavier. He could see the look in Xavier's eyes seemed doubtful.
Xavier was silent, his eyes looking bright. A question from Stevan suddenly made him think. How does she feel about Graciella? Xavier wiggled his jaw. He must have liked that woman.
“I will marry her," replied Xavier.
“That's not what I asked. All right, let me describe it to you. You met her on a mission, I'm sure she's the woman who amazed you enough that you could let a woman into your mission. Your admiration makes you become at least a little interested in him, then you know the woman who makes you amazed turned out to experience violence in her household and your admiration mixed with pity. Where I know how you are, you can at least see injustice. You feel like helping her out of it, compounded by the fact that you know she's the woman you're sleeping with. You feel guilty and become responsible with Graciella. Xavier, is that really how you feel?” at length Stevan analyzes the situation he thinks Xavier is experiencing. He's been close to Xavier for so long. For him Xavier is very difficult to be close to others, especially to fall in love
