Chapter 82
Xavier nodded and headed to the building that Jacob talked about.
Sunny did not specifically choose a place. The building was not far from where Orlando lived.
Arya was in a hurry. She urged Xavier to drive faster countless times along the way. Xavier was already
driving fast as he knew how anxious Arya was.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of the building, surrounded by onlookers. Arya quickly got out
of the car and ran into the building. Unexpectedly, the elevator was being repaired, so she ran up the
stairs.
Arya only put on a pair of slippers when she came out. She ran so fast that she didn't care if her
slippers fell off. She just wanted to see Sunny soon.
She was so tired that she couldn't catch her breath. It took her less than ten minutes to climb the 20-
story building.
She was barefoot and covering her chest when she looked at Sunny standing outside the railing.
"Don't be silly." Arya tried to keep her voice as gentle as possible. She was afraid that she would annoy
Sunny.
Sunny turned to look at Arya and smiled. "Arya, I admire you for your courage. You always dare to do
anything you want. You are so strong..."
"You can do it too." Arya reached out to her. "I swear, I will help you take revenge. You have to see
those being people punished yourself..."
Sunny shook her head. It was too late. She smiled as if she was relieved. "It's good to see you before I
die."
The next second, Sunny jumped down before Arya could say anything...
"No!" Arya tried to catch her, but she failed. She didn't even reach the corner of Sunny's clothes.
She was trembling. She could not believe it. She did not dare to face it. She was so frightened that her
face turned pale instantly.
There was a commotion and the sound of fright below. Arya didn't seem to hear them. All she saw was
Sunny jumping down. She didn't realize that her tears were flowing down...
"Why can't you be a little stronger?" She wanted to ask Sunny.
The commotion continued, and Arya seemed to be motionless. She leaned against the railing and was
still trying to grab Sunny.
Xavier ordered Jacob something, so he came upstairs later.
He didn't expect misfortune to happen.
Just a few minutes, a person died.
Xavier walked over and carried Arya up. Arya leaned weakly against his shoulder and sobbed silently.
She didn't have the courage to look at Sunny.
She knew the scene.
Three years ago, her mother ended her life like this as well. She had experienced the horrible scene
and the heart-wrenching pain.
She did not dare to imagine the scene anymore. She did not see it, but she could still imagine her
mother lying in a pool of blood.
She opened her mouth but still couldn't breathe smoothly. She covered her chest and flushed.
Xavier patted her on the face and called her name. "Arya, breathe!"
She couldn't get over it.
"Do you want to die too and watch those killers get away with it?" Xavier yelled at her.
Arya opened her eyes. Tears rolled down her face uncontrollably.
Yes, she couldn't die. She had to avenge Sunny and her mother.
Xavier's words reminded her. She finally came to her senses.
She grabbed Xavier's collar tightly and breathed heavily, and she kept repeating, "I can't die. I can't
die..."
Xavier carried her away. He could feel her body trembling, so he held her more tightly in his arms.
The police had arrived. They took away the body and dispersed the onlookers.
Jacob had been waiting downstairs and saw Xavier come out with Arya in his arms. He ran forward to
them.
Arya was obviously traumatized. Xavier couldn't drive for holding her, so he let Jacob drive.
Xavier carried her to the backseat.
Arya nestled in Xavier's arms quietly, not crying or making a scene. Her soul seemed to go out of her
body.
Xavier would be relieved if she could cry loudly. The quieter she was, the more worried Xavier was.
Jacob looked at Xavier in the rearview mirror and tried to ask, "I did some investigation."
"Go on."
"Phoenix Media was the first to expose this... Estella gave them the original video. This kind of video
was easy to attract people's attention, so it spread very quickly. It was useless for me to work with the
relevant departments to delete the videos. Many people have downloaded and saved it to their phones
or computers."
Arya blinked. They didn't know what she was thinking.
They arrived at the villa, and Xavier carried Arya out of the car. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Arya was having nausea. "Hmm..."
"What's wrong?" Xavier was at a loss.
Arya broke away from his arms, ran to the bathroom, and vomited.
She hadn't eaten much in the past two days. She had two mouthfuls of porridge in the morning and
vomited it all out. Xavier was scared. She looked terrible, so he called Edward, but Edward was in the
army.
He went to the army when Xavier said that Bridget had a boyfriend.
Xavier cursed. When he needed Edward, Edward was not there for him.
Xavier had no choice but to hug Arya. "I'll take you to the hospital."
Arya shook and said, "No... I'm fine."
She was weak, and her strength was gone with her vomit.
Xavier carried her upstairs and hugged her. He didn't leave her all along.
Then Xavier's phone rang. It was Daisy. Xavier held the phone and wanted to answer it outside, but
Arya stopped him. "Don't go. Don't leave me alone, please."
She clutched the corner of his clothes, and her eyes were filled with helplessness and sadness.
She was so afraid of being alone at this moment.
She wished someone to hug her and be with her.
She wished to be weak for a moment, just for a moment.
Xavier didn't hesitate to hang up and turn off his phone.
He sat back on the bed and held her in his arms. "I won't leave. I'll stay by your side."
Arya leaned into his arms and pressed her face against his chest.
She closed her eyes and didn't cry anymore.
Xavier thought she was asleep, so he put her down gently. In fact, Arya was not asleep. She just
wanted to close her eyes and think about it.
She thought Xavier had something to do, so she didn't say anything, but he didn't leave.
After putting Arya down, Xavier took her cold and red feet, lifted her socks, and placed them on his
abdomen. He warmed her feet with his own body.
His skin was hot. Arya wanted to withdraw her feet, but Xavier held her down and wouldn't let her
move. "You're the first one that I treat like this."
Arya slowly opened her eyes and looked at him. She was satisfied that he could be with her for a while.
"I'll let you go. I'm fine." It was not that she didn't felt pain anymore, but she hid her pain deep in her
heart.
Xavier gazed at her as well. Her eyes were clear and watery. Her sadness and helplessness
disappeared without a trace.
It seemed that everything he had seen was an illusion, but Xavier knew clearly that it was not.
Those emotions had once existed in her eyes.
'Why is she pretending in front of me?'
'Why couldn't she show his weakness in front of me?'
"Arya, are you a woman?" 'Why did she hide her feelings?'
'Why couldn't she be as gentle and weak as other women instead of hiding her sadness and pain?'
"If I had a choice, I would like to be reborn as a man." That way, Richard wouldn't cheat on her mother
because her mother didn't give him a son.
And her mother wouldn't jump off a building because of Richard's betrayal.
If she were a boy, Estella could not frame her, let alone experience the pain of losing her beloved one.
Xavier puckered his brows. He didn't like what she had said.
If she were a man, he would never have a chance to meet her.
He didn't want that.
Xavier stared at Arya. "Nonsense!"
