Chapter 183 Xavier’s Fate

Three months later....

Zach's brows furrowed as he kept his eyes peeled on the computer. He had been back in the office at Frost Corporation for over two months now. Although no one personally knew his schedule or about his whereabouts except for George, Amy insisted that he continue with his normal routine. So there he was, sitting in his office with the beautiful view of the city that is New York displaying behind his floor to ceiling glass window while he was buried in a mountain of work.

He heard a knock and the person entered before he could answer. He knew who it was before he could look up. As usual, Xavier was visiting. He walked over to his liquor cabinet and poured himself a drink before settling down on the sofa.

"Don't you have work?" Zach asked. He knew Xavier no longer entertained other women ever since he got together with Nicole.

"Work. I do have work. I just need a little break", he took a swig of the hard stuff and sighed. "How's Amy doing?"

"You can visit her."

"Isn't she busy with some project she's working on with...", He cleared his throat. "Henry?"

"Not always. And how long are you going to keep that up?"

"Don't back him up", he said with clear resentment before taking another sip.

"Am I?" He finally looked away from the monitor and took in his brother.

He could see the fatigue from where he sat. Did he have too much work? Despite his playful attitude, he knew Xavier to never slack in his work. Could there be something else weighing him down.

"Tell Amy I'll visit toni- oh no! Not tonight. I have a date with Nicole", he took another swig and swallowed bitterly. Zach's brows went up in question at the behavior.

"What?" Xavier asked sensing his brother's gaze while he kept his eyes peeled in the contents of his glass.

"What's wrong?"

Xavier swallowed a hard lump. He had never been one to hide things from his brother and even if he didn't say, Zach somehow always found out.

"It's nothing serious. It's just Nicole being a woman. Nothing I can't handle", he said with a laid back attitude before downing his drink. He placed the empty glass on the coffee table and stood up. "Tell Amy I'll stop by for dinner tomorrow."

As he left, a knock was heard and Zach permitted the person to get in. A grumpy George walked into the office with a file in his hand. He went ahead and placed it on the desk. His phone chimed and he took if out to see the contents of the message he received and let out a heavy sigh before glaring at Zach.

Zach didn't bother looking up as he focused on reading the file. Xavier laughed when he saw this.

"I'm guessing that's mom", he said with a laugh.

"I have ten blind dates set up this week alone since I allegedly accepted her help in finding a woman", he said with clear resentment directed at Zach.

"Wow! I suddenly feel like I had it easy when she asked me to be gay. I just realized both incidents are related to Zach", Xavier said with bitterness.

Zach swiftly signed the file after reading and closed it before giving to George. "If you're that mad, you can take me on. Both of you."

Take who on? That's practically asking for a free beating! They both shook their heads, Zach was such a bully. Throwing him a scoff, Xavier left the room. He had to wrap up his work so he would be on time for his date. He let out a heavy sigh. Women could be such a handful.

About two hours later, he was seen walking into the lobby of Crystal palace apartments. He took an elevator to the eighteenth floor and made way to room 1806. He rung the door bell and a gray eyed beauty greeted him opened the door. She greeted him with a huge smile and wore nothing but a satin robe. The desire was evident in Xavier's eyes when he saw the outline of her hardened nipples.

"Do you plan on just standing there?" She said with a teasing smile.

He moved in and kicked the door shut, quickly pressing his lips to hers. She hastily helped him out of his clothes and he carried her into his arm moving to the bedroom.

"No", she breathed out in between the kiss. "The sofa!"

He obliged and settled her there. She broke the kiss and removed her robe. She turned and got down on all fours on the sofa, giving her ass to him. Overcome by desire when he saw her wet lips, Xavier threw on protection and entered her with a groan.

Their moans and the sound of their skin slapping echoed in the room. She tightly gripped the sofa, moaning to his every hard stroke. He groaned in pleasure, enjoying the thrust of her hips against him as he pounded her p*ssy. Their little tryst came to an end as her climax was followed by his own with a loud cry.

"Should we just stay in?" He suggested whilst catching his breath and pulling out his member as well as the used condom.

"No, let's go out. I already picked an outfit", she said breathlessly as she pulled on her robe.

He used a free hand and grabbed her waist, pulling her to him. He had on a lazy smile and stared at her with an adoring gaze. "Don't you just want to stay home and do nothing? We could watch TV and just order in?"

She chuckled and shook her head, "Very funny. Get dressed, we're going out."

"Okay. I'll go freshen up", he let go of her and walked on.

She responded with a hum as she moved to get ready. She did not see the disappointment in his eyes. She soon heard the sound of the shower as she dressed. Close to half an hour later, the couple was seen existing the elevator on the first floor.

A young woman who was a resident in the building was walking towards the same elevator they exited. She could not help but openly admire the pretty boy but masculine known as Xavier. Without even trying, he always turned heads wherever he went.

The woman threw him a flirtatious smile as she walked past them. He hardly gave a reaction to her when Nicole left his side and walked ahead to the sports car the valet brought for him. He let out a heavy sigh and followed after her to get the door for her. He jogged to his side when Nicole was settled in.

She had her arms crossed and her face was contorted in annoyance. He was about to press the start button when she huffed out a breath.

"Really Xavier?" She turned to him, clearly angry.

"What is it?" He said with a tired voice.

"You won't say anything after that? That woman was looking at you! She was practically checking you out!"

"I didn't notice."

She broke out into a humorless laugh. "The Xavier Frost didn't notice a woman checking him out?"

"You just said it yourself, she was looking at me, I wasn't looking at her. I don't see what the problem is."

"Wow! This is the disrespect I have to put up with", she slumped back in her seat.

"Nicole", he warned with a tone serious and dangerous.

"Let's go", she said while looking out the window.

Xavier sighed. This is what he gets for having a terrible past with women. It's making his girlfriend paranoid and untrusting. He could only blame himself. This was his fate. With a push of a button, the engine revved to life and he drove off. The date was ruined for him before it started.
