"What the hell happened to you? You know, how scared I was when you didn't answer my calls and was not at all talking to me?

" Valentina asked as Xavier opened her office door.

Xavier looked at her and just walked towards her making her frown.

Xavier stood infront of Valantina making her frown and look up at him with her eyebrow raise.

"What are you looking at?

" Valentina asked.

But Xavier just looked at her making Valentina frown at her.

"What happened to you?

" Valentina asked but again Xavier didn't answer her and just kept staring at her making her sigh.

"Xavier, you are scaring me!

" Valentina said and Xavier just didn't say anything and walked a little closer to her making Valentina frown at him.

Suddenly, Xavier wrapped his arms around her and hugged her tightly maint Valentina frown deeply.

"Xavier, is something wrong?

" Valentina asked but Xavier didn't answer anything and just kept hugging her.

Valentina took a deep breath and hugged him back tightly trying to make him feel good.

They both didn't say or talk about anything and just kept hugging to eachother.

Xavier kissed her hair making Valentina frown but she don't want to ask him anything... She knows when he feels down like this, he just need a hug from her...

"Xavier...

" Xavier cut off Valentina in mid sentence.

"Shhhh... Please be like this good a few more minutes.

" Xavier said making Valentina take a deep breath.

"Alright...

" Valentina replied and they both just kept hugging each other.

"I miss you... I miss you so much... I miss you every minute...

" Xavier said making Valentina smile.

"I miss you too...

" Valentina replied but she is sure that there is something happened or else... He won't talk like this.

"I really miss you, Valentina...

" Xavier said making Valentina frown.

"Is there any problem, Xavier?

" Valentina asked and slowly Xavier left Valentina and lokked at her in eyes.

He cupped his face in his hands and kissed her forehead.

"Will you leave me if I did anything wrong?

" Xavier asked making Valentina frown.

"What? What are you talking about?

" Valentina asked.

"Tell me... Will you leave me if I did anything wrong?

" Xavier asked.

"What wrong did you do?

" Valentina asked making Xavier sigh.

"What if I did something that might hurt you so badly?

" Xavier asked making Valentina raise her eyebrows.

"Xavier... What are you talking about?

" Valentina asked.

"Val... I want to get away from everything with you... I just want to live happily with you... I don't want to care about what is this world gonna say or talk about it! I just want to be with you and only you...

" Xavier answered making Valentina smile.

"Xavier, I am yours... There is no doubt in that... But tell me what happened and what made you feel low and what did you do wrong?

" Valentina asked making Xavier take a deep breath.

"I am tired, Valentina... Tired of everything... I miss us... I miss the time we used to spend with each other... I wish I don't keep our relationship a secret all these years... If I didn't... Then, you would have been mine... Until now... And I wouldn't be Rose's... And I won't have been named as Rose's Husband.

" Xavier answered and Valentina nodded her head and she hugged him tightly.

"I told you that I want you to keep our relationship a secret, Xavier... It's not your fault... I just don't want any others to chew words about us in their mouth... I just want us to be happy in our own world... And I thought when we are ready to get married, we would tell everyone about us and get married to each other but... You...

" Valentina cut off in mid sentence as a tear falls down from her eyes.

Xavier took a deep breath and looked at her taking her face in his hands.

"You trust me right?

" Xavier asked and Valentina nodded her head with a small smile.

"I do... That is why, I am still waiting for you and still is with you!

" Valentina answered as tears falls down from her eyes making Xavier hug her tightly.

"I am really sorry for what I did... But I needed to do it... To save everyone from everything!

" Xavier replied as tears rolled in his eyes making Valentina frown at his words.

"What?

" Valentina asked as she released herself from the hug and looked into his eyes.

"I am sorry... I am really sorry...

" Xavier said as he falls down on his knees and tears started falling down from his eyes.

Valentina was shocked is an understatement... She doesn't have any idea what is going on with Xavier and she wants to help him but it's like, there is no way for her to get to know about things... The only way she has to get to know the things is from Xavier but she is sure that he will never tell her about the things that will hurt her so badly and she is not at all ready to get hurt by him... Even though, its something that hurts her so abdly if he tells her about this, then she would tell him to she doesn't want to know about him... Because she is sure taht if he tells about whatever it might it hurt Valentina then he will not look back at her and will leave her... And Valentina can never afford to leave him... He is the only one who is keeping her alive at this moment...

He was the one who kept her alive too... She is just so greatful for Xavier that he is with her at her worst and she is just like the same wants to be at his worst even though it hurts her a lot...

Seeing Xavier in other woman's arms hurts her and that irks her... But she couldn't help... She is only alive until now even though he is someone's else, because he still have her in his heart and thats what Valentina is greatful for!

She never thought Xavier would marry someone else... She vowed to take to revenge on him the moment he took vows with Rose to be with her this lifetime... She sure was angry and felt betrayed... And she planned to take him down... But that didn't happen... Just because, he still loves her... She wants him no matter what and she knows he will be only hers... She was not at all sure, what is going on with him... But she is so sure that, there is something serious that is going on with him. And she now, so badly wants to know about it. Valentina knows taht Xavier will never tell her about what it is... But she knows that once it hits him hard and he can't take it anymore... She will let it out.

Valentina figured out with Jason words that she needs to keep an eyes on Edward and not George and Xavier...

And with Amelia's words, she is sure tgat George will never wants someone as Rose as his daughter in law... Edward is not from his standards... He has a way better choice for Xavier... But still, George chooses Rose...

George will never accept something like this and force Xavier if it's not about something serious...

If there is something that George and Xavier is going through with Edward, then she so badly wants to take them out of the things... Even though, George was not so with her... He still is so good with her dad and she wants to help him because of her father...

As Valentina don't have any idea on how bad can Edward can... But still, she had an idea of Rose... As in how bad she can get too...

So, it just same like... They are father and daughter... So, there is no need of thinking but just can say that they both are same and can do anyone's life a living hell just for their benefits!

Valentina doesn't want that to happen and she will make sure that George and Xavier will get out of this no matter what and she will do anything for that no matter what!

They both needs her now... Even though, if she talks with Xavier or George about this, she is sure that they both will kepe away from this as much as they can!

She nodded her head thinking that she should so all this quietly wiithout talking to George or Xavier...

Valentina can get a few information about Edward from George by manipulating him in anyway with her words... But she can never with Xavier and as he is the one who loves and bought her up in her business... He already knows her tricks and ways to take the things in her hands... So, Valentina thought that she can't risk anything right now and should take it slow as much as she can but she is not sure about from where to start and with whom she should talk about this first!
