After storming out of the room, Yasmine jumped when she saw Xavier casually leaning against the door.
She staggered back, her hand on her chest as she leaned against the wall. "Did you hear everything?"
Her poised and gentle demeanor seemed shattered before this man.

Xavier, who was trying to suppress a smile with his finger under his nose, couldn't hold back a laugh and pulled Yasmine close. "Do you really enjoy being in my arms that much?"
What?!
Her face flushed with heat.
