Chapter 35:I underestimated you

Lia was stunned.Xavier finally admitted his feelings to her.She felt surprised and not sure how to respond.She never thought his feelings for her are already that deep.She stared at his eyes.He seemed serious and was not teasing her.She felt her heart began warm up and raced all of a sudden.She doesn't really know how to react at all.She was speechless.

Xavier couldn't help but to smile while looking at her face.She looks really adorable.He couldn't help but to lean and steal a kiss.He saw Lia's eyes go wide.

Lia's can feel her heart beating wildly.Her face went red so badly and blush.She feels like she wanna jump up high at this moment.She feels like she wanna collapse.She couldn't understand what she felt right now.

He just kissed her!!

He stole a kiss without her permission!!

Should she cry or not?Why is she acting like this?Why's her heart fluttering and tingling inside?Lia couldn't believe herself.She couldn't understand what she's feeling right now.

She seemed to like it?!

She seemed to like his kiss?!

Ahh!!

Why did he kissed her?They were friends, right?Right?

Her heart is jumping and thumping wildly.

This isn't what friends are for!

He held her head gently and gave her a gentle kiss on her forehead before holding her hand to lead her to the car.He opened the door of the passenger seat for her.Lia entered the car while he mind is still in a mess.She was shocked and in disbelief.Xavier called someone before he entered inside of the car while still on call with Naftali

"I also already told the police.Go to the police station and take care of this for me.I'll be guarding your sister.", Xavier said to the phone.

"What?!Why are you guys there?!Where the hell did you take my sister?!"

"Your sister will tell you."

Xavier looked at Lia and passed his phone to her.Lia's eyes went wide and looked at Xavier in confusion.Xavier just smirked at her and Lia was stunned.She remembered what Xavier just said before.She has to tell her brother she went on a date with him.

"Xue?!Why are you there?!Why are you guys far away from the city center?!"

"B-Brother.I took Xavier because I was bored.", Lia lied.

"What?!Why didn't you wait for me?Why are you bored?Seriously?!"

Xavier got annoyed and took his phone from Lia.

"Stop asking your sister anymore.I'll send you a message of the location.I'm hanging up.", Xavier said and hung up.He sent the location to Naftali.

Lia was speechless.

Xavier looked at Lia who was speechless looking at her.She was extremely cute.He suddenly wanted to see her stunned expression and red face again after kissing her.His eyes landed on her cheery lips.His eyes darkened and his mouth felt dry.He suddenly felt like he wanted to do it but this time more deeper.He gulped and cursed inside his heart before looking away.He knows it was wrong.They are not in a relationship.They are friends.

He started the car.Lia was confused.There was a lot of thoughts in her mind.The two of them are silent.Lia didn't even notice when she got home.She was still in shock and in disbelief after being kissed by him.He also told her his feelings for her.

She sat of her bed while still thinking about what just happened.It was her first kiss.She wanted to ask why he did that but she already know the answer.Its because he has feelings for her.The kiss kept replaying on her mind.Her face flushed in helplessness.She wanted to hide inside of a hole.She felt frustrated.It always came to her mind.

Xavier at this moment answered Bill's phone call in the living room.It was afternoon in the morning.Naftali still has a class.

"Young Master Xavier!H-Have you seen the post of Eloise Williamson?", Bill's voice anxiously asked.

Xavier frowned.He doesn't know any post besides he really doesn't care about Eloise as she was no threat to Xue anymore.He knows it was Eloise who tried to kill Xue.His men just finished collecting evidence last night and it was indeed Eloise.Hearing Bill's anxious voice, he knew something is wrong again.

"No.What about it?", he asked calmly.

"Young Master, that woman just posted a message saying I was in a relationship with the princess while you're in a relationship with her.It's all over the news.That woman really has guts.I already have told Mr. Williamson about my identity as one of Moreau family men but the Williamson family still have guts!I know something is wrong.I made my men investigate the Williamson family and learned that someone is helping the Williamson family.It was Ethan.He unexpectedly came here in the Philippines.He probably knows you are here and just destroyed the Williamson family companies but what does he mean by helping the Williamson family?Is he really going to start a conflict with you, Young Master?"

"Heh?He's finally moving I see.", Xavier replied in amusement which made Bill confused.

He remembered what he just experienced with Xue just a few hours ago when someone was after their life.He knew something was wrong when the Williamson family is currently financially ruined.He also told Naftali about this predicament and Bill's information came in a timing.He already knew the answer.It was Ethan.It was also Ethan in his past life colliding with Eloise.Ethan was one of his siblings, the third prince.

"Young Master?What moving?Young Master, what should I do with the scandal post that's been going around?", he heard Bill asked.

"Just let the post become widespread.The princess will not last long in this country anyway.She's going back to Country N.Her life isn't safe here anymore.The Country N will take care of this matter.", Xavier said and he heard Bill sighed and seems to be finally calmed down.

"Alright, Young Master.Should I continue watching the Williamson family?", he heard Bill asked.

"Yes.Update me if there's any news."

"Okay, Young Master.I'm hanging up."

Xavier hummed and the call ended.He put his phone inside his pocket and hee saw Naftali suddenly came back home and asked him anxiously, "Where's Xue?Where is she?"

"She's fine.She's in her room."

Naftali put his bag on a sofa and hurriedly went to Lia's room.Lia was startled when Naftali suddenly barged into her room.

Naftali calmed down when he saw Xue was sitting on her bed.

"You're alright.You're alright.", Naftali said and sighed in relief.

"It's good that you're alright.I'm leaving now.", Naftali said before leaving her room.

Lia was speechless but she smiled after a few seconds.Her brother really care about her.

At night the news of Lia and Xavier escaping death from killers spread.The cctv of the gun fight between Xavier and the killers also became widespread online.The police are currently investigating the crime scene.

The news from a famous television got a lot of comments.They know Lia.Everyone's interested in Lia's current life because she was famous and her sister, Eloise recently posted a scandalous information about Lia having an affair with an old man while being in a relationship with one of her school mates.

The news was also shared in the school forum and theirs a lot of people commenting.

Lollipop_22:Lia is really lucky to be defended by a handsome man.Xavier is so hot!!

Lollipop_22's comment got 609 hearts.

Komichi:Why's Xavier holding a gun?Is this legal?

The people began to debate because a student is carrying a gun.

Eloise was scrolling on her phone and saw the news.She played the cctv and saw how Xavier protected Lia.Her hands weakly grasped her phone.Lia unexpectedly escaped death.She never knew Xavier owns a gun and knows how to use guns.Xavier in the video looks so skilled and cool.She was impressed.Her felt heart pounded again screaming her feelings for Xavier.She bit her lower lip.She have to get rid of this feelings.She already have Ethan and Xavier is now her enemy.

Ethan was in his bedroom and saw the cctv video on his phone.Xavier was so skillfull in shooting and looked like a professional guard guarding Lia.He hatefully gripped his phone.He never thought Xavier knows how to play guns.He felt amused.He let out a short laugh in amusement and locked his phone screen.

"I thought he only knows how to draw and paint.I never thought he knew how to play guns.Xavier, I thought you were talentless.I underestimated you.", he hatefully spoke to himself.
