Chapter 880

Leia was struck speechless.

She remained quiet and motionless as if she had been petrified.

Xavier walked to Stefan, looking at the charming, lovey-dovey couple in front of him. Strangely, his handsome and bright face seemed solemn and gloomy. With a sentimental vibe, he whined, “Stefan, you sure are awesome. I just went on a trip, but you guys turned hostility to love and made up with each other. As expected… no matter how skillful one is, one is no better than a talented person like you.”

Stefan was so gripped in a state of deep love that he acted as if he was Eros. He was not as cold and distant as he was before. On the contrary, his whole being radiated with the light of love and peace.

“B*stard, stop teasing me. It’s all because of my deep sincerity that she changed her mind. Keep this in mind. Sincerely is the key to love!”

After he said that, he hugged Xavier with one arm and whispered in his heart, “Leia is kind and magnanimous. She’s much more reliable than that woman called Shirley. You should grab hold of this chance and don’t make me lose face in front of my wife.”

Xavier raised his brows in enlightenment. “So, that’s why you and Renee went to so much trouble waiting for me here?”

“What tone is that? Are you dissatisfied?”

Stefan knitted his brows deeply and said in a commanding presence, “My wife is exceptionally charming and excellent. Of course, her bestie can’t be any worse. Don’t tell me you despise her, huh?”

“No, I don’t. It’s just that I didn’t expect that you obey your wife so. You force me, the first kiss*ss in Beach City, to admit defeat.”

Xavier was greatly amused by his buddy, who was so obedient toward his wife.

Hence, he inevitably threw Renee an admiring look. He then smiled faintly and stated, “Renee, as expected, your charm is boundless. I’m sure no men in this world can resist that…”

“Thank you. Stop flattering me. I was too young and inexperienced, so I was tricked by your buddy.

Now we even have two kids. I might as well make do with it.”

Renee waved her hands. Although she appeared reluctant, she could not hide the joy and gentleness in her eyes.

“Since you’d just make do with it, why didn’t you make do with me instead?”

Xavier broke into a frivolous smile, and his charming eyes became quite bewitching as he said ambiguously, “I made a bet with Stefan four years ago, and you were nearly mine…”

“Oh?”

Renee immediately became curious as she immediately asked, “What kind of bet was that? Tell me.”

However, Stefan maintained a cold expression and warned Xavier grumpily. “It happened so long ago, so there’s no need to mention it. Don’t forget that you’re talking about your buddy’s wife.”

“Pfft! Stefan, calm down. I told you I’m not Chris. Of course, I know that my friend’s wife can’t be coveted. I just feel a little regret…”

Xavier laughed in a carefree but wicked manner, but the deep sadness in his eyes was unmistakable.

“When you went missing four years ago, I made a bet with Stefan. If I had found you before him, I would forget the so-called friendship and boldly pursue you. Unfortunately, I wasn’t lucky. I thought I found you, but I got an ill-fated relationship instead…

“I always tell myself how nice it would be if the one I found at the underground casino in Water Dock back then were you!”

“Er…”

For a moment, Renee felt slightly awkward because she did not know what kind of response she should make.

She and Xavier were good friends. Their friendship was extremely precious. However, his sudden ambiguous speech made things very awkward.

As a result, Stefan’s face became gloomy. “I told you. She’s your buddy’s wife. Stop your nonsense!”

He knew that Xavier was frivolous and playful. Xavier always changed girlfriends, not to mention his unceasing appetite for flirting with any woman he came across.

However, he knew very well that Xavier was never sincere, especially when he flirted with women at will.

The only time that he was serious was when it was Shirley.

Coincidentally, Shirley had a face very much similar to Renee’s. Hence, Stefan could not help but worry…
