Pampered Wife of Xavier

Chapter 41: Man To The Rescue

"Arya, you've crossed the line! Look at what day it is! If you're deliberately trying to ruin things, don't blame me for being rude! I haven't questioned you about yesterday's incident, and today you want to do this! Slap her in front of me? You're really disrespectful of your elders! You wanton piece of trash!" Kristina walked over overbearingly at that moment with a threatening aura. Even Evelyn could not help but tremble.

Arya shot her a look before ignoring her. She turned to look at Victoria's red and swollen face as she leaned into Ethan's embrace. The trace of her slap was particularly obvious on her tear-stained and extremely pitiful face.

"Is that so? I'm really sorry for hitting your face. When I saw your face, I really couldn't control my hand. You'll definitely understand where I'm coming from, won't you?" Arya laughed calmly, the sneer in her eyes clear.

"Arya, you're too much! You have to make me hate you, don't you? Haven't I told you that if you have any anger, just come for me? Why won't you let go of Victoria?"

Victoria buried her face in Ethan's arms and cried silently, making him feel an abrupt fury, especially with Arya's mocking gaze.

"Enough! You don't have to say more to people like her. Grandma Johns, get someone to drag her out right now to avoid ruining things! Look at the occasion today! She did this on purpose! Look at how she slapped Victoria. I have to give her a few tight slaps!" Evelyn said sternly as she pulled Arya hard. Because of the strong force, Arya staggered a little too. Kristina also hinted at the two guards behind her and the two of them rushed up at the same time.

"Is that so? Have you thought about how to give her a few slaps?" A deep and apathetic voice suddenly came from behind.

Layla and the rest felt that they were pushed to the wall by a pair of strong arms as several dark shadows flashed past them and the entire staircase corridor instantly became cramped.

When she heard the familiar voice, Victoria instantly lifted her swollen face and looked towards the white figure that appeared. After she had a good look at who it was, she forgot about crying and then cried in alarm,

"Chairman Knight!"

The few of them were startled then and there. They looked on in shock at the dashing, honorable man that had suddenly appeared before them.

Evelyn was also stunned in that instance. The hand that she had lifted in the air abruptly stopped as she quietly stared at Xavier's handsome face. Her furious gaze became a little misty and she could not help but become absent-minded.

The corridor suddenly had a momentary silence.

"Oh, it's Chairman Knight... We didn't think that you'd..." Kristina was experienced after all, so she could immediately react and quickly went up to greet him.

While Xavier did not even look at her, his still and calm gaze swept Arya, and then fell onto Evelyn's raised hand.

"If you slap her, it means you're slapping me. Are you sure you want to do that?"

"It... It was her who hit Victoria first... She crossed the line... This wicked woman! Look at how... how she hit Victoria!"

Because of Xavier's strong presence and his silent, apathetic gaze, Evelyn's voice started to tremble a little.

"There are many who say she's wicked. Wait, you're person number what? It's her problem whoever she hits, but you can't hit her," Xavier calmly commanded, then he reached out to pull Arya, who had kept quiet, away. He suddenly turned around.

Those who were familiar with Xavier would know that his temper was famous for justifying his shortcomings!

Evelyn's beautiful face had already turned extremely stiff! She never would have thought that Xavier would be so mean.
