Chapter 39: You are under arrest
First Person POV
Evelyn looked up at me with wide eyes and a look of surprise that flashed past her face for a fleeting moment.
I slowly walked towards her, step by step. A smirk was plastered across my face as I looked down at her and we locked eyes. There was a frown etched onto her face, resting between her brows, forming a deep crease on her forehead.
"Surprised to see me?" I taunted, breaking the silence that stretched between us as she struggled to find the words to say. "Wonder how I know about your little rendezvous?" I mused, each word that left my lips dripping with venom as I looked at her with an amused smile lingering on my lips.
She whipped her head around in an instant, turning to look at Xavier with disbelief written all over her face.
"Xavier, what the hell is going on? Why is she here?" She questioned frantically as her eyes darted around, searching for some form of clarity as she reached out to hold onto his arm. "How did she know we..." her voice trailed off as her brain struggled to register the situation that was unfolding before her eyes.
He looked right into her eyes and let out a soft chuckle as he arched his brow at her, pulling his arm away from her.
"You still don’t get it?" He mocked and she remained silent, only staring at him with a blank look etched onto her face, a puzzled expression masked her features. "I lied about still being in love with you, Evelyn," he revealed, his words were like sharp shards of glass piercing through her chest at that moment.
"What?" She muttered under her breath, refusing to believe the words that left his lips. She shook her head lightly in denial as she lowered her head to stare at the ground. "I don’t get it, what are you talking about?"
