Chapter 1286
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Cut the crap! Here, Iâll fix it.â Leia became flustered because of his words, so she grabbed his face with her hands.
Recalling what she learned in her university elective lesson about putting back oneâs joints, she applied a bit of force, and they soon heard a crack.
âMove it and see if itâs cured,â she clapped and said confidently.
Xavier moved his chin, and to his surprise, it didnât hurt as badly. Nonetheless, he wanted to bluff Leia.
âNo, it still hurts. Hmm, my face is going to be ruined now. What do you think you should do to compensate me?â
âIt still hurts? That canât be.â Leia frowned and took a step forward. She then grabbed his face again.
âShould I do it again?â
âNo, Iâm fine now.â Xavier immediately dodged. He might die instead of merely ruining his face if he went through that again.
Leia realized he had tricked her, and became furious. âCan you be serious? Is it fun to fool me?â
âYes, itâs fun!â Xavier smirked and got close to her. âI think itâs fun when we bicker. No one dares to argue with me except you, and it gets boring to have no one to drive me mad by my side.â
âSo, you tried to get happiness from fooling me, and vented your anger on your employees when I wasnât around.â
âNo, thatâs not it. You drove me mad, so I vented my anger out on them. In short, it was because of you that they suffered. Youâre the culprit. Youâve wronged them, so shouldnât you make up for it?â
âXavier, youâre shameless!â Leia could not argue, so she crossed her arms over her chest and ignored him. After all, they were no longer a couple now, so his unruly behaviour had nothing to do with her.
Xavier became serious and started tending to her injury attentively. After that, he asked, âWhy did you you find you couldnât leave me after the breakup? Did you come here to get back together with me?â
âUgh!â Leia pretended to vomit. âIâm not so desperate that I would share a man with another womanâ¦â
âShirley and Iâ¦â Xavier wanted to explain but Leia interrupted him.
âItâs unimportant what relationship you have with her. I donât care about that. I came today to ask for your first love. I have something to ask her.â
Xavier frowned and became serious. âWhat is it?â
âThere was something wrong with the doctor you recommended for Quinton. He spoke to Shirley on the phone alone before the surgery. After that, an accident happened during the surgeryâ¦â When Leia reached that point, she started crying. âQuintonâs still in a coma at the hospital, and Ren also fainted from anxiety. I should be held responsible too, so I owe Ren and Quinton an explanation⦠I donât care what the reason is. I hope you can let me meet Shirley so I can get to the bottom of it.â
âHow did that even happen?â When Xavier heard that, he was bewildered. âThat plastic surgeon is very famous in his industry. He managed to heal faces with worse scars, which was why I recommended him to you. I didnât expect an accident.â
âIt wasnât an accident, it was a malicious scheme! Shirley must know something. I want to see her!â
