"Talking to you is annoying," Elena complained. She could see the man was not paying attention. Why did he bother asking if he wouldn't even listen to what she had to say?
Seeing Elena's sullen face made Xavier want to laugh. He thought his morning started off with something fun. Teasing his sister-in-law.
"You said you wanted to go out and explore the area around here," Xavier raised an eyebrow. "Why? Is the mansion area not big enough for you? Do you look down on our family home?"
Elena's eyes bulged. How could Xavier think about it that way? She... looked down on their family home? She thought this place was like a castle! Far from looking down. Was he out of his mind?
Elena wanted to go out of that gate because... at the moment she felt... suffocated.
