Chapter: 1289

Leia could not take it anymore and punched Xavier hard in the stomach. �Xavier, just shut up, will you?!�

�Oww! It hurts!� Xavier covered his stomach and grimaced in pain. He blurted out, �Leia! Damn! Are you trying to murder your husband?�

Immediately, Leia froze. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she stopped talking.

Xavier took a while to calm down. After that, he said solemnly, �Don�t be angry! I�m saying it for his own good!�

Then, he turned to Quinton, who had an icy expression on his face. �Quinton, haven�t you considered getting a plastic surgeon to restore your handsome face?�

�No!� Quinton gritted his teeth and replied in annoyance. Quinton was already at the limit of his patience. Xavier was just a frivolous man and another rich kid like Stefan. If it were not for Renee, he would have killed him!

�No? That doesn�t matter. Universal Entertainment may not be familiar with all kinds of business, but we�re renowned for our plastic surgery services. Nine out of ten artists in our company have undergone plastic surgery. I know a highly-skilled plastic surgeon called Ghost. He can surely save this face of yours!� Xavier said enthusiastically.

�Really?� Quinton frowned. Xavier�s words sparked a glimmer of hope in him. Who would not want to have a normal face if they could?

�Why would I lie to you?� Xavier draped his arm around Quinton�s shoulder and patted his chest with his other hand. �Don�t worry, bro. You are Ren�s brother, so you are also my brother. I only want the best for you!�

�But you are Stefan�s friend, so how good can you be?� Quinton frowned and looked at the man�s arm in disgust, restraining the urge to cut it off. Years of bloody battles had made him wary of people and unfamiliar with intimate interactions.

�No, no, no. I am no longer his brother. From now on, I will cut ties with that cold-blooded and heartless man!� Xavier crossed his arms, and smiled earnestly. �I am now your brother, so I will listen to everything you say. And I wasn�t joking earlier. If you want, I can bring you to the plastic surgeon and let him see if your face can be reconstructed.�

�Sure.� Quinton nodded, the defensiveness in his eyes fading slightly.

They got into the car and started talking happily. Quinton even warmly invited Xavier to Carmine Pawnshop to have tea with him.

Watching them from the backseat, Renee and Leia exchanged glances in confusion.

�What is going on here? Why are they suddenly so close? Did I miss something?�

�What�s so strange about it? Xavier is very sociable.�

�But isn�t he too quick to defect to Quinton, knowing that my brother and his best friend are deadly rivals?�

�You�re right� he�s acting weird. What�s he up to?�

�There must be a conspiracy!�

�Yeah, it must be!� JrNovels.com
