Chapter 877

“You’re very smart. Money does indeed resolve a lot of conflicts…”

Xavier was wearing a floral shirt, beach pants, and a pair of flip-flops. Although he had dressed humbly, he appeared very natural and casual, especially with the innate aura of a wealthy heir that he exuded.

So, he appeared very noble and elegant. He did not at all look like a poor man.

At a glance, he saw Leia, who was sitting on a high chair, and unconsciously broke into a charming smile. “Naughty kitty, we meet again. If nothing happens between us, given our destiny, I’m afraid we’ll disappoint God.”

Leia glanced at him and said angrily, “Xavier, don’t you have anything else to do? Why did you stalk me instead of coaxing Shirley?”

“I didn’t stalk you.”

“Stop lying. If you didn’t stalk me, how would you know this dock and book this speedboat…”

Leia sighed, “I know I made a big joke today and sewed discord between you and Shirley. When I’m free, I’ll explain to her well. But please do me a favor and don’t mess with me today. I’m in a hurry. Can you let me have the speedboat?”

If it was someone else, she could resolve it by paying a great sum of money. However, it was Xavier.

So, she soon became demotivated, as if she had lost all hope.

Not only did the Stuarts own more properties than the Osbornes, but most importantly, Xavier was the leader responsible for the wealth of his family. The amount of wealth that he could casually manage was, in no doubt, greater than a naive rich young lady like her.

So, she could not defeat him if she wanted to resolve the issue with money. She could only admit to her defeat.

“I didn’t stalk you. I’m in a rush, too, so I need to board this speedboat.”

Xavier was at a loss as he explained helplessly, “I won’t do such an outrageous and vulgar thing of stalking even if I like you. The best thing is that I don’t even like you. At least… I don’t hold any affection for you.”

His statement made her feel slightly awkward.

She never flattered herself that Xavier would fall in love with her. She just thought that he was messing with her just because of what happened that morning.

However, as a woman, she still felt rather defeated when he claimed that he did not like her at all.

‘Alas, am I that unattractive? I’ve been single for more than twenty years. The only love affair I had was with a liar.

‘Now even a frivolous playboy like Xavier, who generally accepts all kinds of women, claims that he dislikes me! What a dent to my self-esteem!’

“I don’t know what’s on your mind, but in short… No one can go to the island I’m going if not for the invitation from its master. You’re not about to tell me that you, too, have been invited by the island’s master?”

Leia tried her best to hide her disappointment and stay calm.

“I’m not sure if he’s the island master or not, but the gathering place he gave me is indeed in this location…”

Xavier was very smart. He soon understood the whole affair, so he asked with a profound meaning, “If my guess is right, the island master that invited you is… your bestie, Renee?”

“How did you know? She wouldn’t have invited you. That’s impossible!”

Sun Island was a sacred place where Ren and the children could live away from the world. For so many years, she had never told anyone about this place except for Leia and her brother.

If Ren invited Xavier, it meant that she had exposed that utopia to Stefan, Xavier’s buddy.

That was impossible.

“What a coincidence! The person who invited me is Stefan, my buddy!”

Xavier answered generously while Leia was still confused.

“What?”

Leia suddenly exploded in a burst of wrath.
