Chapter 11: Mr & Mrs Wilder
The voice quickly captured everyone's attention. They whipped their heads around and came face to face with none other than Xavier who stood tall in front of their eyes.
"You again!" Blake sneered in disdain as he glared at Xavier with a fiery blaze burning in his eyes. He then turned back to face me. "Of course you would be with him, wouldn't you?" He spat.
Stella turned to look at Blake with a raised brow. "You know this guy?" She asked.
Xavier watched the helpless look on my face and it finally dawned on him. "Who dares to touch my wife?!" His loud voice boomed loudly in the store, echoing in my ears.
"Aurelia is... his wife...?" I heard Stella muttered to herself under her breath in disbelief as she stared between the both of us.
I watched as a hint of recognition flashed past the store manager's face and his previously smug demeanour shifted entirely.
"Mr Wilder!" The man called out in surprise as he looked at him with wide eyes. He then turned to glare at the guards. "Let her go!" He demanded in a low voice through gritted teeth and they quickly released their grip on me without another word.
"Why did you let her go? You need to find the card owner first!" Stella questioned the store manager who only hushed her.
The store manager walked towards Xavier and placed a hand on his shoulder. "What brings you here today?" He asked with a polite smile plastered across his face.
