I tried to adjust my eyes and after a long and hard stare trying to wonder who I was looking at, it hit me. It was Denise, my former highschool mate and the one person who made the four years of high school a living hell. In summary, she was a bully. "Denise?" Xavier asked making me wonder how he knew her. "I thought I made it clear to you that it's over between us," he retorted. It all now made sense to me. She was his ex and his grandfather had probably asked her to join him and Xavier possibly trying to reconcile the two. *** Xavier takes Adriana as collateral for the debt owed by her parents and from the get go, she takes his as a heartless monster. But after a while she starts falling in love with him but one his exes comes back wanting him. Will Xavier choose her or will he take back his ex so that he can claim his family's multimillion family company?”
