Selen had seen the both of them in movies together for some time now and they always said they were best friends. Looking at Liam, she couldn’t help but find him handsome.
’But Xavier is more handsome,’ a thought suddenly came to her. She shook her head, not wanting to think of Xavier at that moment since it was only going to make her miss him more.
"She’s good," Liam replied.
He didn’t want to think too much about it, but when he had told Martha about him going out with Selene, she didn’t look too happy with it.
They both exchanged a few words until they got to the theater. Immediately, they put on their mask, got their popcorn and drink then sat down for the movie to start.
Kace had told Selene Liam was going to choose a romantic movie if he had feelings for her. But surprisingly, he chose an action movie.
’Kace was worrying too much. This man has no feelings for me,’ Selene thought to herself as she enjoyed the movie along with the other audience.
When they were done, Liam took her to a restaurant for dinner.
They ced their order and waited for the food to arrive.
"So did you enjoy the movie?" He asked her. He was staring at her so intensely that Selene thought there was something on her face.
Subconsciously, she touched her face as she replied, "Yes, I enjoyed it. I don’t get to do this much because of my tight schedule. Thank you."
"What about your boyfriend, Xavier? He doesn’t take you out?" He asked with curiosity. He thought since she was dating a big shot, she must have gone on several dates.
Selene blinked, and the realization hit her. She had never gone anywhere with Xavier before.
"We have, but since we are so busy, we don’t get to do it much," she replied, hoping he would change the topic.
As if on cue, the food arrived and Selene immediately dug in.
"Where are we going next after this?" She asked him.
"An amusement park," he replied and immediately, her eyes lit up.
While they were busy eating, they didn’t notice a man striding towards them. The man stopped behind Selene, ring at Liam. Feeling the intensity of the re directed towards him out of nowhere, Liam raised his head only to find Xavier ring at him.
Selene noticed how shocked Liam was and turned to look back, only to see Xavier as well.
"What are you doing with him?" Xavier questioned Selene, his eyes still on Liam.
"We were only hanging out," she replied immediately. For some reason, she felt like she was caught cheating.
"I think I will have to cut your hangout short," Xavier replied, he grabbed Selene’s hand and was about to take her away but Liam stopped him.
"Xavier, we were only hanging out. You can see we were just eating and nothing more," he said.
"Thest time I checked, I wasn’t talking to you. But since you want me to talk to you, there’s no problem but I would rather give you a warning instead. Stay away from Selene," Xavier warned.
He had only just arrived in Radiantia when he got a text from Kace. He had to track her down.
"She’s my friend and I think she should decide if she wants to stay or leave with you," Liam replied. He despised the way Xavier was holding her hand like that.
Meanwhile, Selene was surprised Xavier wasn’t holding on to her hand too tightly that it would hurt her.
At first, she was surprised that Xavier was back, but now, she felt she needed to quench the fire that was about to burn the entire ce down.
"Liam, we will talkter. I will go with Xavier," she said.
Xavier didn’t wait anymore and pulled her along with him while Liam red at Xavier’s back.
Xavier opened the door for Selene and helped her get into the car. He got into the driver’s seat and drove away without uttering a word.
"Xavier, we were only hanging out. You can ask Kace about it—"
"And what did Kace tell you after?" He asked her. His tone was sharp so Selene didn’t bother to reply. She shrank into her seat as silence reigned until they got to the mansion.
Selene got out of the car and trailed behind Xavier to his room. She wanted to exin herself as soon as possible.
"Xavier," she called, but didn’t get the chance to say any other word when Xavier suddenly captured her lips.
