Chapter 392
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
âUhh⦠how would I know?â
But Xavier quickly latched on to the key point and asked with a strange smile, âBro, why are you only curious about who the second highest donor is and not the highest? Arenât you exposing yourself?â
Based on normal logic, people would normally be curious about the first place. Who would care about the second place?!
Stefan knew he could not deny it anymore, so he pursed his lips and said nothing. His cold, handsome face clearly read âDonât push itâ.
Unfortunately, Xavier was a guy who had no fear. He continued teasing Stefan. âBro, like the netizens said, you sure are willing to spend to make a woman happy. 4 million dollars for a dinner. That must be a Guinness World Record. Youâre⦠going tomorrow evening, right?â
Stefan did not answer Xavierâs question, but instead mocked him back, âIn terms of spending money on women, how can I compare to you? In recent years⦠in order to make your girl famous, you must have spent more than 40 million dollars. Youâre the true whale here.â
Xavierâs expression immediately changed. He looked away as he tried to deny it. âWhat are you talking about? Thereâs nothing going on between Shirley and I. Weâre purely a boss and an employee. I spend money on her because I think she has potential and can bring value to Universal Entertainment.â
âOh, really?â
Stefan smiled and mocked, âIf she has so much potential, why isnât she famous yet after four years of heavy investment? Does her value lie in losing money for Universal Entertainment?â
Xavier was completely defeated, but he kept arguing while awkwardly rubbing his nose, âWell⦠these things take time. Weâre gonna produce a few more movies for her. She works really hard, so sheâll definitely make it big one day!â
âA celebrity doesnât become famous just by working hard. Sometimes, itâs just not in their destiny.â
Stefan raised his eyebrows, a hint of playfulness creeping into his perfectly contoured facial features.
âFor example, a certain someone⦠vanished for four years, but the moment she returned, she exploded in popularity. You canât achieve this with money.â
Xavier pursed his lips and rolled his eyes. âAlright, I get it, your darling wife is soooo amazing. I thought you said you didnât care? Why do you look so proud of her?â
Stefan frowned and asked, âDo I look proud?â
Xavier nodded heavily, âYeah. Very proud.â
Stefan realized that Xavier was right. He immediately put on a serious face and asked solemnly, âWere you serious when you said that youâre gonna make a move on her?â
Seeing that he finally got some reaction from Stefan, Xavier quickly said, â Of course I was serious. You canât touch your broâs woman, but if sheâs not your woman anymore, then Iâm not breaking the code. It would be a pity if she ended up with someone else.â
âFine.â
Stefan nodded and said expressionlessly, âIn that case, Iâll make a move on Shirley too. There were sparks between us a long time ago⦠Honestly, I like my odds.â
Xavier almost coughed up blood. He quickly said, âBro, donât mess around.
I was just kidding. You win, okay?â
He originally wanted to provoke Stefan so that the arrogant guy could be honest with his own feelings, but Stefan was too clever for him. Now that Stefan had a hold on him, he could only give up.
Stefan chuckled and said, âSo youâre gonna settle down for real now and stop fooling around with other girls?â
âNah, no way.â
Xavier looked nonchalant. âShirleyâs not my type at all. You know I donât like thin, bony girls like her.
How could she possibly make me settle down? I just⦠care for her like a normal boss caring for an employee. Have you ever seen a shark that stays put for a single fish? Besides, she doesnât even count as a fish in my pond.â
âReally?â
Stefan raised his phone and said, âI recorded everything you said just now. Should I send the recording to her?â
âNo!â
Xavier went after Stefanâs phone with an extremely serious expression.
Although he was not interested in Shirley White, she was his employee and a starthat Universal Entertainment had invested heavily in for several years. He could not let Shirley suffer psychological trauma!
