Chapter 170 Bianca saw that the man standing outside was Xavier Tanner. This indirectly shows that Xavier went back and forth in the theater and went back to the VIP Hall to look for her, to no avail. In a fit of rage, the man came to intercept her. He had watched his lawfully wedded wife cuckooed him with another man right under his nose. Yet, he missed out on the golden opportunity to catch them red-handed. At this moment, as the husband, the entire ordeal must be unspeakably unbearable, even though it might be a loveless marriage between the two—there was not even one-tenth of love in their marriage. In truth, Bianca did not think it was considered cheating to visit the father of her child. However, in Xavier's eyes, seeing Luke kissing her was directly tantamount to cheating. "Bea, is he your friend?" Nina stood at the door awkwardly. Based on the look Xavier gave Bianca, Nina assumed that there was a high probability that Bianca knew this man. Bianca answered Nina with silence. Nina could not help thinking that she would know Bianca's friends within the country too. As for new colleagues that Bianca just got to know in the company, she probably knew them better than Bianca. Among those people, the man outside the door was never part of any of those groups. The only possible explanation was that this man was someone whom Bianca knew when she was studying abroad. Now, both of them returned to their home country and remained in contact... However, based on the expression on the man's face as he stood outside the door, Nina felt that the man’s relationship with Bianca could be more complex than merely being ordinary friends. "Would... Would you like to come in and have a seat?" Nina said. As Bianca's best friend, she must be alert at all times! Now, as she listened to Bianca's burst of anger, Nina ran out of her bedroom immediately. Seeing that there was no one in the living room, she immediately headed to the kitchen. After assessing what was happening in the kitchen, Nina quickly turned off the gas and looked at the pair of sneakers that got burned out of shape. Having no better ideas, she retrieved a basin of water and poured water on it. The fire was completely extinguished. However, the kitchen was filled with a strange burnt smell. After opening the windows for ventilation purposes, Nina looked back at Xavier in horror. What the heck, did this man suffer from some kind of brain damage?! "It seems like I've overestimated your personality. I must be out of my mind to think that I could talk things out with you." Bianca was so angry that she wanted to slap herself. Xavier closed in on Bianca with a horrifyingly dark expression. Nina, who stood by the window, strode over and wedged herself in front of Bianca. She looked up at Xavier and said, "Stop fooling around. This is a society ruled by law. Voice out your problem. You can't just burn a six-thousand-bucks pair of shoes. What's wrong with you? You're not just apologizing to Bea; you have to compensate her too!" Xavier did not listen carefully to a single word Nina said. Looking at Bianca behind Nina, Xavier glared at her in an amber coldness. “You'd better uphold your duty as a wife. Otherwise, don't blame me for what happens next!" "That's all you can do? Kidnap my grandfather and threaten me again? You wanted me to marry you the first time. What is it this time? Sleep with you or give you a child?" Bianca felt that she was born a human being, and she was in no way inferior to others. She did not have to be subjected to this kind of control. However, Xavier was a man who has a criminal record and had gone to prison before. He was the kind who would do everything his way. Nobody could afford to provoke him unless they no longer valued their own lives. Bianca wanted very much to have that fearless boldness too. She wanted people to fear her, too, instead of always being the scared one. She used to hold back for her father and grandfather. Now, she had Lanie and Rainie to worry about too. When could she ever break the cycle? Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the ꜰind_ηovel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Wedged in between the two, Nina was slightly confused... She recalled the last time they drank when Sue said that Bianca was married. Nina had a sudden epiphany—this man kidnapped Bianca's grandfather and threatened Bianca? "You're the one who hurt Bea's grandfather? Scum, do you any shred of humanity? Bea's grandfather is so old. Don't you have parents and grandfathers?" Nina did not know what kind of pervert Bianca had met. Xavier, however, was very rational. Instead of giving anyone a chance to have something on him—or record what he said—he took out his mobile phone and started audio recording. "Repeat what you just said.” "I'm not scared of you! I'll say whatever I want!" Nina repeated her words straight away. Xavier recorded Nina's words and put away his mobile phone. "What goes on between us stays between us. You keep everyone else out of this. I'll get a professional lawyer to solve the issue with our divorce,” Bianca said decisively. She was not sure of Xavier's personality. Even though she knew that he was shameless, she only knew one side of that. As for how shameless he could be, Bianca could not tell for sure.
