Chapter: 1642
"My legs fail me. I can't go anywhere and do anything, and now you're forced to stay here to keep me company. I'm so sorry..."
Xavier put his hands in his pockets quietly, and watched the happy crowd from afar coldly. Even animals would be frightened by his menacing aura.
"They look so happy, especially Miss Osborne and Santiago. They get along so well that people may mistake them for a couple. Santiago looks very friendly too and isn't as aloof as they say he is. Miss Osborne is indeed very attractive and charming."
Shirley looked at them and smiled, purposely making matters worse.
"She's indeed very attractive."
Xavier finally broke his silence and spoke. He turned to look at Shirley.
"If she wasn't, you wouldn't be so concerned about her."
Shirley's expression changed, and she said awkwardly, "What...What do you mean?"
"Aren't I right? You always talk about how she's a perfect match for others, and you watch her closely. Doesn't that mean that you care about her? Are you attracted to her?"
"Xavier, are you kidding me? Are you angry because I'm talking about her?" Shirley sneered.
"I'm telling the truth�she looks like the perfect match for Santiago. You can ask others if you don't believe me. Don't vent your anger on me, and you don't have to stay here with me either. I can't accept such an honor."
"You're overthinking," Xavier scoffed.
"I'm not staying here for you. I may just hate watery mud, so I don't want to go. It has nothing to do with you, so stop flattering yourself."
"You!"
Shirley did not expect him to humiliate her like that, and for a moment, she didn't know how to react. Helplessness engulfed her. It seemed as if he was destined to walk far away from her regardless of what methods she used. He would no longer put her above everything else like before.
Meanwhile, all the celebrities were having great fun catching mudfish in the pond. They also started to gossip.
"Look! Mr. Stuart is so considerate. He stays with Shirley like a guardian so she doesn't get upset. That's true love!"
"Shirley is good at nothing but controlling Mr. Stuart. As long as she does that, she'll have a spot in the entertainment circle..."
"Yes, not everyone has such a skill. We need to rely on ourselves. Oh, how sad we are!"
Leia felt very frustrated as she listened to them, and started digging in the mud wildly to vent her frustrations. She kept on digging to try and catch a mudfish, but the only thing she got was a face full of mud. JrNovels.com
