Chapter 15

“Throwing myself at some random guy? Xavier, do you hear yourself?” Noelle could not help. but laugh at the absurdity of it all.

“I get that you’re not over what happened with me and Winter, but you’re young. You’ll find someone who’s just for you. I’m your brother–in–law now, right? I wouldn’t do anything to hurt you,” Xavier said, stumbling a bit over the words ‘brother–in–law.‘ He glanced at Noelle, noticing she looked even prettier than she had just a day ago.

“Oh, I should be so grateful for your concern!” Noelle’s voice dripped with sarcasm. “Do me a favor, will you? Just stay out of my life from now on.” She was not the type to cling to what was gone. Sure, she could not just switch off her feelings for Xavier, but she would not let him see her crumble.

“Noelle, why do you have to be this way? If things had worked out, it would have been great, but otherwise, we should go our separate ways. We’re not a thing anymore, and I’m really into Winter.”

“Okay, I get it. You’re head over heels for Winter, So, what do you want from me? I’ve backed off as much as I can. I’m not bothering you, so why can’t you just leave me be?” Noelle was at a loss, trying to figure out what Xavier was really after.

Why on earth did he think she could just smile and play nice after what he had done? Did he think she was some kind of saint?

“Winter threw herself under the bus to spare you from your family’s wrath. She didn’t say anything as they scolded her. I love Winted and she loves me, but Grandpa won’t give us hist blessing because of you, Noelle. Don’t you feel even a little bit guilty?”

“Guilty? Oh, please, Xavier, are you for real? Why would I feel guilty? You’re the one who should be drowning in guilt.” She almost fell for it and thought she was the one at fault. “Now, do me a favor and vanish, will you?”

“Noelle!” Xavier’s face was a picture of shock, totally unable to grasp that this new Noelle no longer trailed behind him, agreeing with every word and always putting him first. “How can you do this to me? I’m so disappointed. I even bragged to Winter that you were her ride–or–die and would never stab her in the back. Boy, was I wrong about you.”

“Yeah, you’ve got it twisted, Xavier. Did you forget your brain when you walked out the door? What girl in her right mind would forgive a cheater and a homewrecker? And you have the nerve to expect me to be sweet to you? Do you think I’m that pathetic? Let me set you straight -it’s not you who misjudged me. I’m the one who had you all wrong. I must’ve been blind to ever fall for a guy like you. Now scram! Get out of my face.”

Noelle knew if she kept this up with Xavier, she would be the one losing her mind

haven’t seen you for a single day, but whatever he said to you completely changed your mind. “Xavier could not wrap his head around the cold shoulder Noelle was giving him. Convinced that the guy from the car had messed with her head, he said, “You never used to be like this.”

“Who was I before? Your lapdog? Remember when you said our love needed a ‘test‘ and the company needed me, so off I went on a year–long business trip to who–knows–where? The whole time, you wouldn’t let me call you unless it was business Xavier, did you plan this all along, just itching for me to get out of Brookville so you could cozy up with Winter?”
