Chapter 1095
Xyla lifted her head and offered Marione a smile, “You know me the best, Marione.” Howard lifted the
glass and said, “Alright, alright. Our food is getting cold. Let’s eat while we talk.”
The rest of the people lifted their glasses and offered each other a toast. The dinner lasted for two hours.
Everyone had drunk some wine, and they had a lot of fun together.
Xyla was able to hold her liquor, but when she reached her limit, she would get lightheaded. She tripped
herself when she was walking toward the entrance, and Howard hurriedly went forward to support her.
“You’re not drunk, are you?” She waved her hand and said, “Yeah, don’t worry. I’m still sober.”
Howard grabbed her shoulder. “Let me send you back.”
Before Xyla could say anything, another hand pulled her away from Howard’s hand out of nowhere. She
stumbled a few steps back and fell into the incoming man’s arms. “She doesn’t need you to send her
back.
Xyla was momentarily stunned before she lifted her head to look at the man behind her. She became

Yorrick did not say anything in return. He just ordered his bodyguard to get his car.
Howard looked at him and asked, “May I ask about the relationship between you and Xyla, Mr.
Hathaway?” Yorrick let out a smile and grabbed her into his arms. “What do you think?” When Xyla
struggled to free herself from his embrace, he pressed her head harder toward his chest and brought her
away.
They went into the elevator, and it took Xyla a lot of strength to push him away. She stumbled a few
steps and rammed toward the wall. “Are you insane?”
Yorrick pressed the button, and the elevator started going down. He looked at the woman, who reeked of
booze, but he did not say anything.
Xyla was struck by a dizzy spell and squatted down. When the door of the elevator was opened, Yorrick
went forward and pulled her up from the floor.
The bodyguard was already waiting in the car. He shoved her into the backseat, and Xyla suddenly sat
up straight. She combed through her hair with her fingers and said,” Are you trying to kill me, Yorrick?” “I
hope I can do that as well.” He closed the door and ordered the bodyguard to start the car.
The bodyguard gazed at him through the rear mirror and asked, “Mr. Hathaway, are we sending Ms.
Mayweather back to her house or-”
“What makes you think that I need you to send me back?” Xyla interrupted. She tried to open the door
but could not. She pounced toward the bodyguard, grabbed his collar, and shouted, “Open the door!”
Fortunately, the bodyguard hadn’t started the car yet. He looked at Xyla helplessly and said, “Ms.
Mayweather, you’re drunk.”
I’m not drunk! Open the door now! Otherwise, I’ll call the cops and say you’re abducting me!”

Seeing that Xyla was about to tear the bodyguard’s shirt apart, Yorrick pulled her back, and she fell into
his arms.
He went stiff for a moment. When she realized she had sat on something, she sprang up and sat on the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmside.
She gazed down but swiftly averted her gaze. Yorrick caught her gaze and said blatantly, “Have you
never eaten any fish that you rear, Ms. Mayweather?”
Xyla let out a burp. She reeked of booze so thick that the fragrance in the car couldn’t cover it.
“Why should I eat the fish that I rear? Can’t I rear them for fun? I have a lot of money, and I can rear
however many I want. Not only that, but I’m also going to rear ducks!” The bodyguard stifled a smile
while Yorrick placed his hand on his forehead and chuckled. “Do you think you’re opening a farm? Do
you have the money to take care of so many animals?”
Xyla went closer and stared at him intently. “You’re looking down on me?”
She grabbed the collar of his shirt weakly and shouted, “You b*stard!”
Yorrick’s eardrum nearly exploded from her shout. He pointed at Xyla’s nose and said, “Let go.” “Never!”
Xyla exerted more strength on her hands, pulling one of the buttons on his collar out and exposing his
skin to the air.
The bodyguard looked at her through the rear mirror and sucked in air sharply. Initially, he had been
under the impression that Xyla was a reserved woman. He did not expect her to be so wild, and it
seemed to him that their next destination would be the hotel.
