�Does it matter who it was?� Leia suppressed her pain and felt like teaching him a lesson. �You�re turning thirty in a few years, so can you behave like a mature adult for once? They�re here to work for you; you don�t own their lives. Do you have to be so fierce towards them? If the person who came in here was suffering from high blood pressure, they would have died on the spot from this. How would you resolve it then?�

Leia sounded like an angry mother lecturing her son, and Xavier looked away guiltily.

�I� I�m sorry." Xavier was stunned, and spoke like a child who had made a mistake. �My employees can handle being rebuked. They won�t change if I don�t scold them, so I have to do this�

�Is that really the reason? You�re overly violent, so they don�t dare to resist.� Leia glared at him as she touched her swollen forehead, gritting her teeth in pain. �Did I wrong you? Why am I so unlucky whenever I meet you?�

�Come here, let me take a look.� Xavier pulled her hand away. When he saw a slight scratch on her forehead, he felt very sorry for her. He blew at the wound gently and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead.

�Wait. I have ointment and a plaster here. Let me tend to it.� He then led her to the sofa and opened his drawer to get the small medical kit. He was attentive and considerate, being unusually gentle and kind. It was very different from his usual frivolity.

�Stop it, I�m not that weak. It�ll heal soon�� Leia tried her best to keep her distance because she didn�t want to fall for him again, but the way he kissed her forehead earlier almost tore down all the walls she

had put up. Her heart raced, and she felt her cheeks grow warm. Panicked, she shook her head.

Damn it! Did he forget that we�ve broken up? He kissed me and is being so sweet, he really is a playboy and scumbag!

He�s probably like this with Shirley too. 'What a jerk!� Leia sat on the sofa and became angrier when she thought about it. So, she stood up instantly the moment Xavier came, and accidentally knocked her

head against his chin.

�Ah!� Xavier howled in pain, uncaring of his image because of how badly it hurt.

�Hey, be quiet! People may think I did something bad to you. � Leia saw how he held his chin and thought he was pretending, but she soon realized that he genuinely was in pain.

Xavier raised his head slightly, his eyes watering. �It hurts so bad!� Xavier did not even dare to swallow. �I think it�s dislocated."

�Your chin� is dislocated?�

�Yes, and my face is going to be ruined. Leia, you�re so cruel. You just wanted to ruin my face since you can�t win me over,"

Leia was speechless. �Clearly, he�s not dying, otherwise he wouldn�t joke around like this.�

�Okay then, let me fix it for you.� While talking, she cracked her knuckles and approached him.

�You want to fix it?� Xavier swallowed. �We�re separated, but you don�t have to ruin my face. My jawline is one of the best in Beach City, and I�m only second to Stefan. If you ruin it, I�"

"Cut the crap! Here, I�ll fix it.� Leia became flustered because of his words, so she grabbed his face with her hands. JrNovels.com
