The Love Trap of the Ruler.
chapter 95
"Hello?" graciella asked in a cautious tone.
"Not that I told you not to get close to Xavier! Why are you so stubborn, Graciella!" a voice that was very familiar to Graciella was instantly heard. Graciella instantly raised her eyes.
"How do you know my phone number?" Ask Graciella again. This is his new number. But how can Adrean get it.
"You don't need to know how I got it. I just want to collect on your promise not to get close to Xavier!" adrean said with clenched hands. He was really confused how to. He could no longer possibly show the attitude to protect Graciella so blatantly anymore. If his grandfather found out about it, he would have closed Adrean's access so he wouldn't know what they were planning to do to Graciella and Moira.
Now he must pretend he has no relationship and doesn't care about Graciella for her grandfather to believe in her. He also had to follow all of his grandfather's wishes in order for him to remain trustworthy.
"I never promised you anything" Graciella said firmly. Of course he felt Adrean was doing it just because he didn't like Graciella getting a better man than Adrean.
"Gracyella! I didn't play around with my request when I divorced you yesterday. You better get away from him or I'll do it!" Adrean.
"Why should I do it?" ask Graciella. Seeing the closeness of Moira and Xavier earlier, where maybe he could separate this father and son.
Adrean gnashed his jaw strongly. He also clenched his hands until his nails pierced his palms. Damnit damnit! where perhaps he would say that he was afraid that his grandfather would do something if Graciella was adjacent to Xavier. For his grandfather Xavier was a gold mine. Once Xavier becomes president, his grandfather will be able to rule over everything.
"Follow what I say! Or you'll be sorry!" Strictly Adrean who does not know how else.
Graciella frowned. For him this kind of threat often comes from Adrean's lips and now he feels immune to it. Besides, for what Graciella thinks, she and Adrean have no relationship.
"I think I should remind you that I'm no longer your wife. You can no longer threaten me or rule me, we better take care of each other's lives."
"Greciella!!!" adrean shouted but was greeted with a disconnection vote from the call. Damn it! Now what should he do?
Graciella felt that there was no point in her continuing this conversation. Graciella immediately disconnected her call and turned off her phone. It would feel safer and more secure without the phone. He's sure Adrean must have called him back.
"Who?" the heavy voice sounded. Graciella was immediately startled and turned her face to the source of the voice. Xavier had just entered his room slowly.
"Ehm, just an insignificant call, I'll see Moira," said Graciella who was slightly misbehaved. Xavier would have been angry if he had known just now that he was talking to Adrean.
"What's wrong?" greciella asked who saw Xavier still looking at his phone sharply. In Greciella's mind asked, did she really make sure her phone died? Don't let Adrean call back and Xavier finds out. He just doesn't want any commotion.
"No. Get ready, we'll go home to my place" Xavier said with his flat face.
"To your place? is it okay?" ask Graciella who thinks Xavier took her to the military headquarters.
"For now you can't stay at the military headquarters, but I'll take you to my private home. We've been troubling Stevan for a long time" Xavier said, his face still flat.
Hearing that Graciella felt reasonable. It is impossible to stay in this house forever. This is Stevan's house anyway and they have nothing to do with Stevan.
"All right, I'll be ready soon" Graciella said.
Xavier gave only a small nod, where he glanced back at Graciella's phone before going out. Graciella just poked her lips, whether she should tell Xavier that the one who had contacted her was Adrean, but Graciella already said that it was an insignificant call.
********
Graciella placed Moira's petite body on the bed carefully. He pulled out a blanket to cover his son's body. This afternoon they moved into Xavier's private house. Xavier immediately asked permission to do some of his work which he immediately worked on together with Fredy and some of Xavier's subordinates. Until tonight they have not finished their work.
Graciella kissed for a moment Moira's forehead which slightly raised the corner of her lips even though her eyes were tightly closed. Graciella decided to clean herself, she brushed her teeth and did not forget to wash her face. After cleaning herself and changing into the nightclothes that she had brought into the bathroom, Graciella immediately came out of the bathroom and was immediately shocked to see Xavier was already lying on Moira's side. When did this man enter the room? why didn't Graciella hear him come in at all? Is he going to sleep here tonight?
Graciella looked at Xavier's face. His eyes were perfectly closed and his breathing seemed regular. It seems the man is already sound asleep. Graciella's not good enough to wake Xavier up. It's possible that Xavier was exhausted with so much work that he had to finish today. Stacking up because some days he can't work on it.
Graciella sat on the other side of the bed. Xavier and Moira are not at all disturbed by his arrival. Graciella slowly lay down and tilted her body, once again observing Xavier's peaceful-looking face, if she fell asleep like this inexplicably looking so attractive. Maybe because his face no longer looks hard, usually the look in his eyes is so sharp and also washed away.
Graciella wanted to close her eyes immediately but it felt so hard, her whole life she had never slept in bed with a man, now had to sleep staring at that so handsome face, it makes Graciella not even want to close her eyes.
“Ingin keep watching me?” xavier opened his eyes slowly. Showing dark eyeballs as dark as the sky tonight. Graciella who was caught off guard stared at Xavier raising her eyes.
“I thought you were asleep,” said Graciella in shock.
“No, just want to rest the body there are some things I have to do again later,” Xavier said.
“It's late, can't tomorrow morning alone?” ask Graciella. Why do you have to do this night job. Xavier has just been injured, of course, needs enough rest to make his condition improve.
“Why? You want to sleep with me?” xavier asked in a slightly seductive tone. Graciella heard it instantly raising her eyes, shocked by Xavier's temptation, her cheeks instantly hot along with her heart beating faster, her face now definitely like a boiled shrimp. Graciella wanted to cover her face, but if it was like that she would definitely be misbehaved by spontaneous words
Xavier so he just bit his lip.
