Chapter 180 Don’t Want to Try
Becky didn’t respond.
“Don’t look at me like that. It won’t work.”
Jose sighed
Becky really didn’t give him a single chance.
Once the food was served, Becky’s attention shifted to the dishes.
“Wow! Their food is so good!”
Jose smiled and served her.
Eat more if you like it.”
“Thanks!”
Finished
“Sir, isn’t that Ms. Becky?”
Xavier stopped walking and followed Sam’s gaze.
He saw Jose serving food to Becky, while she kept her head down, eating, occasionally looking up to smile at Jose.
The two of them–good–looking man and woman sitting together–gave off the unmistakable vibe of a couple.
Sam carefully studied their boss’s expression.
Yikes. Dark at the bottom of a pot
He didn’t dare say a word.
Xavier stepped toward the Cantonese restaurant.
Sam immediately pulled out his phone to notify the assistant, saying they’d be late and to have him handle the other executives for now,
After the call Sam crouched outside to watch the drama unfold.
The restaurant had large floor–to–ceiling windows, sparkling clean, letting hha clearly see what was happening inside.
Jose placed a piece of fish in Becky’s bowl.
“This dish as really good”
“Thanks”
Just as Becky was about to put the fish in her mouth, a tall figure suddenly appeared beside her, casting a presence impossible
Xavger towered over her, and she was sitting down–lus deep gaze bore down from above.
But she still put the fish in her mouth
Couldn‘ in good food go to waste
Tout good” Xavier asked His tone was a little cold
Becky and Pretty good”

Jose cut in “Becky’s here to have dinner with me. Say whatever you want right here”
Xavier glanced at him. This isn’t the place
Jose said. “Why not? Becky and I are close.”
Finished
“Closer than me
Becky immediately thought of James’s birth and choked on her food.
Jose replied, “That was then. You’re not any closer than I am now.”
“Still closer than you
Becky rubbed her forehead.
Xavier ignored Jose and grabbed Becky’s wrist, pulling her out of the restaurant and toward a small gazebo at the entrance.
Becky figured it might be good to have a talk, so she went along without resistance.
Xavier looked sideways at her. “When did you come back? Why didn’t you tell me?”
He was the last to know. Even Jose knew before him…
Becky pulled her wrist free and rubbed it.
“We have nothing to do with each other. Why would I report to you?”
Xavier stared at her in silence.
She was right. She didn’t need to tell him. But it still pissed him off.
Seeing her have dinner with Jose pissed him off even more.
But he didn’t even have the right to be mad–he had no claim on her.
They stood there in silence for a while.
In the end. Xavier gave in.
“You should’ve told me. I would’ve come to pick you up
Becky didn’t look at him.
“No need to trouble yourself.”
Another wave of silence swept between them.
After a moment. Xavier asked suddenly. “Becky, have you thought about what I proposed About us dating?”
Becky uid. “No”
“Why not?
no reason to consider it. Fin not going to date you
Xavier teli jewerless in front of this Becky She was completely immune to pressure or charm.
Just give it a try
Don’t rush to reject me. okay! You like me I like you tou. We had our problems before, but I’ll change–until you’re
Becky suddenly tuned and asked. “Do you like the old me of the me now??

Chapter 180 Don’t Want to Try
Xavier was caught off guard. “Is there a difference? You’re still
Becky didn’t say anything.
you.
Finished
Right. To Xavier, she was Becky, no matter what.
No one would believe she’d transmigrated into this world–that she wasn’t the original Becky.
There’s a big difference between who I was and who I am now. So which one do you actually like?
Becky found herself oddly invested in this answer.
Xavier studied her carefully for a while.
Becky had changed a lot.
“I don’t know when I started liking you. But I know that right now, at this very moment, I love you.”
Thump.
Becky’s heart skipped a beat. Her mouth hung open as she stared at Xavier in shock.
Why was this man suddenly confessing?
Saying “I love you” so casually–it was embarrassing.
The lighting outside was dim, so Xavier didn’t see Becky’s blushing cheeks.
He suddenly grabbed her hand and placed it over his heart.
“When will you finally believe me?”
Becky froze.
Crap. She was panicking again.
This was what happened when someone had zero dating experience–one flirt from a man and her brain short–circuited.
Xavier could feel how tense she was. He smiled slightly and leaned in closer until they were nearly touching.
“Can you feel my heartbeat? It’s faster than yours. Be with me, okay? I’m not asking you to take responsibility for me. Let’s just enjoy a simple relationship. No pressure, no strings”
