CHAPTER 136

XAVIER'S POV

Ophelia seemed like a puzzle right now. I wanted to assemble the pieces and set them right. I needed to understand what was going on in her head. 

I knew it wasn't something good, from the way she continuously dug her nails into her palm.

Was it about Nicole?

I couldn't stand knowing she was suffering alone and I could do absolutely nothing to help her.
