Burke glanced at him, tacitly approving.

After taking a look at the time on the LED screen and drank the last mouthful of beer, Burke turned to ask Xavier, who was still in shock, "Did you drive here?"

Xavier shook his head.

Burke threw the key to him and said sharply, "You can use my car. I'll ask my driver to drive you back later."

Burke got off the car immediately.

With a bang of the door closing, Xavier trembled all over.
