“Get out,” Yvette commanded. She didn’t care how Xavier had come in.
“The front desk said all the rooms here are booked. If I leave, I have nowhere to stay,” Xavier said, looking somewhat pitiful.
“It’s not even peak season; how could it be fully booked?” Yvette retorted as she picked up her phone to call the front desk. To her surprise, it was indeed fully booked.
She was a bit confused.
At some point, Xavier was already standing in front of her. “It’s probably fully booked because the New Year is coming.
“Then go stay at another hotel,” Yvette suggested. Surely not all the hotels were fully booked!
“No way.” Xavier refused outright and leaned toward Yvette. “I had a hard time finding you here. Do you really want a blind man to go out and find another hotel in the middle of the night? Won’t you worry?”
Yvette might worry if it had been someone else, but Xavier had plenty of bodyguards and subordinates.
She grabbed his sleeve, trying to lead him out. “I’ll take you to another hotel.”
Xavier hadn’t expected his pity act to fail. He stood still. “Yvvy, I don’t want to go anywhere else.”
Yvette struggled to pull him; no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t move him at all.
Xavier soon took her hand and uttered in a lowered voice, “Yvvy, think about it. This is Tirion. What will the people who know me think if they see me blind?”
Yvette eventually gave up when she heard that. Sighing, she asked, “Why did you come here?”
“I couldn’t leave you alone,” Xavier confessed. The last few times he’d stayed in a hotel alone while watching over Yvette, he’d been too lonely. This time, he was determined to stay with her.
Yvette escaped from his grasp. “You’re sleeping on the couch tonight.”
“Sure.”
Only then did Yvette go to wash up. Feeling exhausted, she lay in bed after taking a shower.
However, just a moment later, Xavier said, “Yvvy, I’m not familiar with this place. Can you tell me where the bathroom is and where the toiletries are located?”
Yvette had almost forgotten that he couldn’t see. She got up again and took him to the bathroom. She guided his hand to touch each item, explaining what they were..
Xavier had an excellent memory and could remember everything once he’d been told. Sometimes Yvette wondered how such a capable person could’ve lost his memory.
Watching his obedient and gentle demeanor now, she noted that he seemed like a different person. While Yvette was lost in thought, she didn’t notice Xavier turning around and holding her hand. The temperature in the room seemed to rise. He leaned against her back, almost hugging her from

behind, his Adam’s apple bobbing slightly.
Feeling his breath on the back of her ear, Yvette snapped out of her daze and quickly pulled her hand away. “Alright, go take a shower,”
With that, she hurriedly left the bathroom. As she got back in bed, her face was flushed. She quickly closed her eyes, trying to ignore the sound of water from the bathroom. Soon, she drifted off to sleep.
In her dream, she felt like someone was holding her tightly. Too tired, she tried to open her eyes bot couldn’t.
As the dawn light fell on her face, Yvette slowly opened her eyes to find the spot beside her empty. She went to the living room and saw that Xavier was already up, working on his laptop. Breakfast was laid out
on the table.
She didn’t touch the breakfast. Curious about what Xavier had been working on, she walked up behind
him.
She was surprised by what she saw. The original business plan on his laptop had turned into a charity donation proposal–he’d cleverly changed it before she could see it.
