#Chapter 19 A New Warmth In His Cold Heart

Eloise’s POV

I was surprised by his sudden appearance. Even though we had gotten sort of intimate and it seemed like we were getting closer, I figured that Xavier was going to continue to neglect me as he had been doing before.

Maybe he does care? I thought to myself.

I shook the thoughts from my head and smiled warmly at Xavier. “I assume work ended early, my Lord?" I asked.

Xavier didn't give me an answer.

I gave him a small nod and went back to teaching the class. Alright… well… maybe he just wanted to hear the lectures for himself and see what I knew. He’s definitely in for a treat then!

“So, as I was saying, who can tell me–”

Instead, Xavier grabbed my wrist and began walking me out of the class.

“Oh! Well, I guess we're finishing up! Goodbye, everyone!" I waved with my free hand.

The students echoed their goodbyes and waves.
