Chapter 130
âOh, youâre back?â Yvette closed the piano and stood up.
Xavier leaned his tall body against the door frame. âWhy did you stop playing?â
In the past, he had been so busy with work that he hadnât known that she could play that well. He had only heard her play once when Terrence asked for their help before.
Back then, Terrence had pissed Xavier off. Xavier remembered how he vented his on Yvette and scolded her.

After that, she had stopped going to the music room, let alone playing the piano. He hadnât thought it had been a big deal when it had happened.
âI donât want to annoy you.â After she said that, she added, âIâve prepared the contract. Shall we take a look at it?â
Xavier had almost forgotten about the contract after he had gone out. âSure.â
As they walked side by side, he couldnât help but say, âYouâre great at playing the piano. What was the piece called? Why havenât I heard it before?â
Yvette was stunned when she heard what he had said. âHave you not heard of it before?â She had still been studying. In fact, she had written it just
had written that piece back when s
for him.
Xavier stopped in his tracks and looked deeply into her eyes. Then, he asked meaningfully,â Should I have heard it before?â
She
thought he had forgotten about it, so she shook her head. âI was just casually asking you that question. I wrote it when I was in high school, and I never published it.â
When he heard that she was the one who had written the piece, he couldnât help but take a few looks at her again. He finally realized how talented his wife was.
Xavier continued walking in front of her, and she looked at him from behind. Yvette couldnât help being distracted because it didnât seem like he had never heard the piece before.
She thought it was weird, but she didnât dwell on it for too long. After all, Xavier was a busy man. Since it had been so many years; she figured there was no way he would still remember
When they returned to the room, Yvette grabbed the contract she had written herself. Then, she placed it in front of him. âTake a look. If thereâs no problem with it, Iâll print it out, and we can sign it.â
Xavier grabbed the contract and glanced through it.
First, both parties had to respect each other. They couldnât do what a stranger wouldnât do,

like hugging, without each otherâs permission. If one of them broke the rule, the other party. would have the right to get away.
Next, while the contract was active, Xavier had to take good care of Noah. Once Yvette had cleared her debts, he would have to return Noah to her immediately. Then, they would get a divorce right after that.
The contract continued on and on. There were so many rules. They all basically meant that Xavier couldnât touch Yvette at all when they were living together.
If he touched her, she could leave with Noah right away. When she was done repaying him, he would have to let them go as well.
In conclusion, she just wanted to leave!
Xavier frowned slightly and thought about it. Then, he looked at her. âAlright.â
He wanted to see if she would follow everything on the contract!
Yvonne hadnât expected him to agree to it that easily. âIâll print it now.â
After she printed two sets of the contract, they both signed them. Then, they each kept one copy. âI hope you can keep your promises.â
Xavier was upset when he heard that. âLikewise.â
âDonât worry.â
Since it was still early, Yvette took her copy of the contract and went into her room to write the piece of the day.
She didnât really care about the contract. Instead, she just wanted to change her tactics.
She hoped that Xavier would want her when he was forbidden to do so. Still, she had no idea if it would work.
Meanwhile, Xavier sat in the living room. After Yvette left, he grabbed the contract and tossed it into the paper shredder.
He didnât care about it. It would only count if he was sincere about it. He wanted to see what tricks Yvette pulled next!
