Xavier sized Liam but didn’t say anything.
"His name is Liam," Selene added, her eyebrows furrowed, wondering why Xavier was ring at Liam in such a way.
Liam stretched out his hand for a friendly handshake, but Xavier left him hanging for a while before he shook his hand tightly, ring at him with a warning Liam immediately understood even though Xavier didn’t say a word.
Selene suddenly felt like she was caught cheating by her husband. Both she and Xavier never really lived life like a married couple, so the situation she was in was new.
Kace sighted Xavier and tapped him on the shoulder.
"So this was why you were asking me for the location of the shoot," said Kace and Selene gave him a look.
Kace could feel the tension surrounding them so he pulled Xavier to a private ce to talk with him.
"I don’t like that Liam guy," Xavier immediately blurted out as soon as Kace took him to a private corner.
"What do you mean?" Kace questioned with furrowed eyebrows.
"I saw the way he was looking at Selene earlier, and I don’t like it. I don’t want her to be around such a guy," Xavier responded, ring at Liam who had resumed his talk with Selene. He noticed them exchanging numbers and he couldn’t help but grit his teeth in anger.
"Will you chill? You said you don’t love Selene right? Then why are you bothered with who she bes friends with?" Kace asked, hands on his waist as he waited for Xavier to answer his question.
Xavier red at Kace, remembering he wasn’t supposed to feel the way he was feeling towards Selene.
"Or perhaps, you love Selene, don’t you?" Kace added.
"I don’t love her," Xavier immediately objected. "I’m just worried for her. She shouldn’t be trusting people, especially after everything she went through," he added.
"Selene didn’t say she was trusting him. And besides, Liam hasn’t made any kind of move towards Selene since she started the movie. I can assure you of that. But I will tell you this, Xavier. If you love Selene, you’d better tell her immediately else what you are internally scared of wille to pass," he teased, patting Xavier on the shoulder one more time.
Xavier frowned. "Just keep an eye on him, I’m leaving," Xavier said, intending to leave. He would have stayed longer but he had to get back to his work.
"Why did you evene here in the first ce?" Kace asked.
"I came to bring her lunch," he replied, already departing.
Kace sighed. He already knows that Xavier was lying but he didn’t bother to ask him any more questions.
Michelle witnessed everything that had urred. Without wasting any time, she dashed after Xavier.
"Xavier," she called. "What kind of rtionship do you share with Selene?" She asked, her fist clenched by her side. "You just met her and you are bringing her food at the set?"
"And when did we get close enough for you to start questioning me about my personal life?" Xavier questioned coldly. "Because thest time I checked, Michelle, we barely knew each other," he added.
Michelle felt hurt by his words because it was indeed the truth. She didn’t know much about Xavier or anything about his personal life. She just met him for the first time and immediately fell in love with him.
Tears brimmed in her eyes.
"Please tell me you don’t love Selene," she pleaded.
Xavier stared at Michelle, clearly annoyed with her request.
’Is she on drugs?’ He wondered.
"You know I love you so much, right Xavier? It would break my heart if you were in love with Selene. I mean, you just met her," she added, her tears already streaming down her face.
Xavier stared down at her.
"Like is said earlier, you have no right to ask me questions about my personal life? Don’t you feel disgusted by this question when you are a married woman?" He questioned, eyes narrowed at her.
Michelle went into a trance while Xavier entered his car and zoomed away.
’She has finally seeded in warming up his bed. I won’t let this pass. Selene was the one who first stole from me and I will make her pay for it. She will have to pay,’ Michelle said to herself.
Even though Xavier didn’t answer any of her questions, it meant he was indeed in love with Selene.
If only she knew thetter didn’t know about that either.
