For the past two days, Xavier was glued to Lana. Ever since they got together that night, they didn’t want to separate from each other, so they had been living together all this while, completely forgetting about everything else other than each other.
Meanwhile, Harvey had run to a couple of jewelers, yet he still couldn't find any information on the necklace. Left without a choice, he called Xavier. Xavier had been in the city longer and knew more people than he did, so Harvey figured he could get some information from Xavier.
At the same time, Xavier had Lana pinned beneath him as he stared at her with gentleness in his eyes. He leaned in closer to her, lowering his head and planting a kiss on her lips. Suddenly, his ringtone cut through the sweet atmosphere.
F*ck! I forgot to put my phone on silent! Who would be so insensible to call me at this time?
He continued to kiss Lana, unwilling to let her go. However, his phone rang persistently. Noting the urgency, Lana urged him to take the call. Resignedly, he got up and went to grab his phone.
He raked his fingers through his hair with annoyance after a glance at the caller.
“What do you want?” he asked through clenched teeth.
This must be karma. I interrupted Vinson a few days ago, and now his best friend is calling me. This must be Harvey taking revenge on his behalf.
“Have I interrupted you?” Harvey asked belatedly.
Xavier rolled his eyes at the question. “You only caught that now?”
Harvey's lips tugged into a smile. He shot a glance at his watch and saw that it was only eight in the evening. Does his night start so early? Isn't he in too much of a hurry?
“You're the one being hasty. Don't you know what time is it? Isn't it a bit too early for your happy time?” Harvey teased.
Xavier arched his brow in question. “How would a single man like you understand the feelings of someone who's in a relationship like me?”
Harvey couldn't retort at that quip.
