Chapter 555
"I miss you so much, Babe!"
Ivan pulled Xena in as soon as she stepped through the door; he quickly locked it behind them.
"What are you doing? It's so early in the morning!"
Xena pushed Ivan away. "What happened last night?" she said, expression hard. "I already rejected
your first call. It’s obvious that I wasn't in a good place to talk to you. And yet you called me again?"
Ivan stepped forward and embraced her from behind. "I was thinking of you, and I just wanted to invite
you over for some wine. I only realized after you didn't pick u p the second call."
Here, Ivan asked curiously, "Tell me, what was going on last night? Why couldn’t you take my call?"
“We were eating outside when you called. The entire family was there!
"And Fane must have a sixth sense or something. He immediately felt that something was off justnovelbin
because I rejected your first call. He asked why I rejected the call, and I told him that it was just another
harassing phone call from all those property agents. And then he wanted me to let him see the caller. I
was so mad!"
Xena huffed angrily, "If I was any slower and didn't rile myself up, and if Ben didn’t believe me, I would
have been caught!"
"F*ck. That fellow is really a tough one to crack. How's he so sharp!"
Ivan curled his fingers into a fist. He thought about it and said, "Seems like we have to get rid of him as
soon as possible!” "Are we ready to make a move? I also think that there's a good chance that he’ll find
out about us if it goes on like this. We should act fast. Besides, I've been faithfully accompanying Ben
at home for the past few days, and I've been playing the role of a dutiful girlfriend. Their attitudes
toward m e seem to have changed too. Aside from that man suspecting me last night, of course!”
After Xena said that, she spoke to Ivan again. "Don’t forget, Ivan. I'm going to leave Ben after I've given
Fane the medicine, and I'll be with you. You told me that you'll declare that I'm your girlfriend in front of
the entire Taylor family!”
"Hah. Don't worry. I've been waiting for this day for so long!"
Ivan laughed and roved his hands around her waist. "Besides, I’m anticipating the miserable
expression on Ben's face when h e knows that you're my girlfriend. He's such a loser. Haha!"
"Really? Good. I'm still scared that you won’t want me anymore after you're done using me!"
Xena suddenly acted coquettishly around him, then she twisted her body backward and pressed it
against his.
"Oh, right. Xena, you have to tell me what they've been doing lately. If Sharon is visiting Fane, for
instance, or Young Master Wilson is looking for him to take revenge. Or if other Kings of War or military
bigshots are looking for him. Tell me everything, okay?"
Ivan gave Xena a vehement kiss. "Don't worry. So long as Fane dies, not only will I announce you as
my girlfriend, but I'll also organize a grand wedding," he reminded her. "How about that? And I'll take
you to the Maldives for our honeymoon. Hah!"
"Really? That sounds awesome. I love you s o much, dear husband!"
Xena leaped excitedly when she heard that. She wrapped her arms around Ivan’s neck and gave him a
vehement kiss.
"Heh. You're already calling me husband? Good, good!"
Ivan chuckled and carried Xena toward the bed.
Xena was a money-faced person to the core, but she had a pretty good body.
However, Ivan had thought about it long ago, that he would find himself seven or eight mistresses after
he was married. The prospect seemed doable.
A woman like Xena would be appeased so long as he gave her money. She would not care if he had
affairs later on.
