Chapter 1245
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
âHow?â Renee was still angry at Quinton, but she also wanted to help him.
âI think Quintonâs grudge against Stefan isnât because of the fight, but rather his ruined face⦠Think about it-everyone likes pretty things.
He used to be so handsome, but now, his face is scarred and he has to wear a mask all the time.
Itâs something heâll have to see everytime he looks in the mirror, so wonât that make his hatred for Stefan grow deeper?â Leia said contemplatively.
Renee gaped at her friend, then slowly nodded.
âYeah, that makes sense actually.ââ âSo, I suggest we start at the cause-letâs try to heal his face.
What do you think?â Leia asked eagerly.
âWe could, but his scar is so deep.
How would we do it?â âOrdinary plastic surgeons might not be able to do it, but plastic surgeons who work for celebrities can do just about anything.
Iâm sure a renowned plastic surgeon can do it!â Leia had seen how much celebrities changed after they debuted, so she knew just how talented some plastic surgeons were.
âBut I donât even know any experts in the field, and I canât afford to hire a fraud.â Renee had previously suggested hiring a top surgeon for Quinton, but he had firmly objected to it.
Even if the surgeon was good, they might have to wait a few years for an appointment; it was no easy task.
âWe might not have the connections for that, but we know someone who doesâ¦â Leia trailed off, looking a bit flustered.
Renee was confused at first, but soon realized who it was.
âOh, I get it now.
Youâre right, we should have gone to him a long time ago.â They immediately left for the headquarters of Universal Entertainment.
When they reached the building, Leia stood outside and folded her arms over her chest.
With her back against the door, she said to Renee, âRen, go on up.
Iâll wait here for you.â Renee looked up at the building hesitantly, then turned to Leia.
âI think we should go together.
Iâm not very close to Xavier, and heâll probably refuse if I ask him to help his buddyâs enemy.
Iâm sure heâll agree if you ask him though.â âWhat?â Leia smoothed her hair awkwardly as she blushed.
âI⦠Iâm not close to him at all! If you fail to persuade him, surely I will too!.â âStep pretending, I know youâre dating him.
Letâs go.
Heâll definitely agree to it if you use your charms!â Renee smiled at Leia hopefully.
âLei, please⦠Youâre the only one who can help me.â Leia couldnât say no, and sighed in defeat.
âFine, letâs go.â âYes! I knew I was your favourite person.â Renee grinned at Leia, batting her eyelashes at her.
âStop that! Iâll come with you, but youâre doing the talking.â âItâs fine, I just need you to stand there and look pretty,â Renee said mischievously.
Hence, they walked into the presidentâs office on the top floor.
At the moment, Xavier was in a meeting.
His company had been focusing on promoting Shirley for the past few years, so all their money and resources had been given to her.
However, the returns were less than promising, and the company had suffered some serious losses.
With Shirley being backed by Xavier, the company and its partners could only suffer in silence.
