Chapter 456: I love you, Ari

Ari tried to lock the door, but Xavier held it firmer so she could barely move it. After much trial, and to no avail, she finally gave up and came out of the house. 

''I'm late for work. I don't have the time to talk. '' Ari said; 

''You are excused for today. I'll call the office. '' Xavier replied.

''No, I don't want you interfering in my matters, neither do I want some unfounded rumors going around in the company. '' Ari replied, a stern look on her face. It was obvious she didn't even want to hear him talk. 

Xavier breathed out;  ''I'll make it discreet, no one will know of it. Please, just give me ten minutes of your time, that's all. '' 

Ari contemplated for a moment and then decided to hear him out. He had stood in front of her door for God knows how long, and she had blocked him for no reason, so letting him talk was the least she could do. After all, he did not hurt her, she was the one who caught feelings.
