Chapter 312
After Xavier heard what Viola said, he immediately left the kitchen. As he walked, he accidentally bumped into a cabinet with his arm. The glass bottles on it all fell to the ground. One of them even smashed onto
the back of his palm.
His good-looking arm was bruised immediately. However, he didn’t care at all.
Although he had memorized the position of everything there in the past few days, it was inevitable that things would be moved.
He only managed to reach outside the house after bumping into a few more tables and chairs. Then, he immediately called Mark and told the latter to drive over.
As he waited for Mark, he finally understood the great difference between a normal person and a blind person. If he wasn’t blind, he would’ve driven himself to look for Yvette by now. However, he had no choice but to wait for Mark.
Since Mark lived nearby, he was able to reach Xavier in six minutes. When he saw Xavier standing in the
snow, he thought Yvette had chased the latter out.
He immediately ran toward Xavier without even taking an umbrella. “What’s wrong, Mr. Lane?” Xavier had only told him to get there as soon as possible; he hadn’t told Mark what was going on. “Drive me to Westville and find a place that sells pierogies.”
“Alright.”
There was only one place that sold pierogies in Westville. Business was booming, and the customers lined up outside just to buy them.
When Yvette reached there, she immediately grabbed a number and found a place to sit down. After a O short while, a man in a black coat stood in front of her. “Yvvy.”
She looked up and saw Claude’s handsome face. “What are you doing here, Claude?”
“Didn’t you tell Viola to call me and say that the pierogies here are delicious?” he asked.

Yvette was stunned. Then, she realized Viola didn’t really want the pierogies. Instead, she had been trying to get Yvette and Claude to become closer.
When Yvette realized that, she didn’t want to tell Claude the truth. Instead, she said, “Yeah. Can you believe how bad my memory is? I’ve almost forgotten about it.”
She looked at the long line and said, “Let me buy you some later.”
“Sure,” he agreed immediately with a gentle gaze. There was no way he didn’t know what Viola was planning as well, but he just went with the flow.
Since the restaurant was full of people inside, they had no choice but to wait by the road. Yvette rubbed her cold hands and said, “I remember there used to be a lot of people here when I was young. I can’t believe business is still just as good after so many years.”
Claude took off his leather gloves and pulled her hands into his coat. She was shocked by the sudden

intimate action, and she hurriedly tried to pull her hands back.
However, he was holding her hands tightly. “I remember how your hands were as cold as this when we were younger. You liked to put your cold hands on my face back then.” As he spoke, he lifted her hands and placed them on his face.
Mark found the restaurant easily and drove Xavier there. Just then, he saw Claude and Yvette acting intimately from a distance.
“Are we there?” Xavier asked when he noticed that the car had stopped moving.
“Yeah.”
“Take me to Yvvy.”
Mark heard him, but he didn’t say or do anything.
“What’s wrong?” Xavier frowned.
Mark didn’t want to lie to Xavier, so he said, “Yvette is with Claude now.” He had started to refer to her as Mrs. Lane recently, but now he called her by her name.
Mark had told Xavier a little about Claude previously. Xavier realized what was going on, and he looked calm. “What are they doing now?”
“They’re acting intimate like a couple,” Mark said with a cold gaze.
