Eve shot the sleeping lady with murderous glares. She turned and raced out of the room in tears.
Without wasting time, Xander climbed out of bed, picked up his pants and white shirt from the floor and hastened out of the room.
Giavanna stood up from the bed the moment Xander raced out. She laughed hard as if she wasn't the same woman that acted as if she didn't get a wink of sleep the previous night.
HAHAHA***
Giavanna laughed harder, her eyes fixed on the grey door Xander forgot to shut.
"Seeing how she lost her mind over what she saw, I guessed the set-up was just perfect. I can't believe I was worried for nothing," Giavanna mumbled amidst her laughter.
Outside the door, Eve who was in a haste to get away bumped into Roman and Zeus the moment she ran out of Xander's room.
"Hey, are you alright?" Zeus asked. Even though he knew Eve wanted to leave, he and Roman deliberately blocked her path.
"What happened?" Zeus quizzed when Eve refused to say anything.
"Do you need us to..."
"Just get out of my fucking way!" Eve hissed and pushed them out of her path.
Zeus who has been suppressing his laughter burst out laughing after Eve scurried away.
"Hey, what if she can hear you?" Roman cautioned while looking at the direction Eve went.
"Then let her go ahead and hear me. It's not like I am afraid of her," Zeus interrupted with his head held high.
"You know that Bae won't be happy if she learns about this right?" Roman reminded him seriously.
Zeus was about to say his piece when the half-dressed Xander rushed out of the room almost bumping into them.
Xander raced past them as if they were mere dust. He didn't even bother to render an apology to them.
"From what I see, I believe this could only be Babe's handiwork," Zeus chuckled, as he and Roman watched Xander run like a crazy man.
"I guess this is the plan she told us about and I must say that I am very satisfied with this result..."
"I believe Babe must be the happiest right now," Zeus beams as he turns and gazes at Xander's room.
"Since we have confirmed that she is alright, let's leave her alone for now," Roman suggested and Zeus obliged.
In the corridor, Roman and Zeus were about to head to their room upstairs when they heard Eve's scream.
Eager to watch their fight Zeus forced Roman to stay at a corner and eavesdrop on their conversation.
"What the hell are you staring at huh?" Eve took out her aggression on the poor maid.
"I...I..." The maid wearing a purple gown designed with a white collar stammered, her trembling hands hidden behind her back.
"You can leave now and ask the others to stay away from the sitting room for a while," Xander said in the most composed tone he could muster up.
"I wanted to inform you and Madam that breakfast is set..."
"Your Madam is still asleep and doesn't want to be disturbed. Eve and I will arrive at the dining soon," Xander cut in sharply.
The maid didn't wait to be screamed at again, she bowed and hurried out of the sitting room.
"What is wrong with you Eve?" Xander scolded after the maid left the sitting room for the two of them.
"Have you forgotten that she is upstairs..."
"Wait, are you trying to blame me for the way I act?" Eve, who had long lost it, yelled at him.
"Were you perhaps expecting me to applaud you for what you did huh?" She demanded sternly.
"If that is what you expected then I am sorry Xander Simon, I can't give you that and I don't have the intention of doing it," Eve berated. She turned to stomp away but Xander grabbed her hand.
"You only met us nude but nothing happened between Gia and I. You should know better..." Eve beats his hand away. She tilted her head and shot him piercing glares.
"I only met you and her nude on your bed and nothing happened between the two of you?" Eve repeated his earlier statement.
"Do you take me for a fool or what?" She hissed as she stabbed his bare chest with her long nails.
"Eve, believe me..."
"Xander, I have done nothing else but trusted you wholeheartedly for six years. For a long time I have always put your feelings, ambitions and what you want above mine," Eve started emotionally.
"I supported your ambitions as if they were mine. All I wanted was to have you to myself. You gave me your word after she disappeared that your body and love would solely be mine..."
"And they are solely yours, Eve," Xander declared. He pulled Eve closer and caressed her face affectionately.
"My love has always and will forever be yours. Yes, I might have gotten intimate with her a few times in the past but I didn't do that because she looked attractive or whatever," Xander continued in a soft tone.
"I did all those things because I needed her to fall head over heels for me. That was the only way we could achieve our aim and now that we have gotten what we wanted, I have no other reason to have sex with her..."
"I saw how you were all over her last night so will you stop with your lies Xander?" Eve rebuked and pushed his hands away from her face.
