Leia showed a disdainful expression and looked at William coldly. “I don’t have to inform you about my relationship with him, do I?”
William appeared defeated. He even sounded slightly anxious. “Lei don’t be mad. I just feel that he’s not a good man. He looks like a playboy. You’d better stay away from him so you won’t get hurt.”
“Humph! Even if he doesn’t look like a good guy he’s better than a liar like you!”
She then grabbed his collar. At the same time her eyes were full of hatred. “It was merely because of my generosity that I let you stay alive. It doesn’t mean I’ve let bygones be bygones and forgiven you. You’d better don’t test my patience.”
“You can hate me or even kill me. But please don’t give up on yourself and get such a man to harm you. You…”
Before William could finish talking Xavier who was eavesdropping outside could not remain calm. He barged into the room again.
“What did you say just now? Who gave herself up? Who is a bad guy? What f*cking kind of man am I? Tell me!”
“Why did you come in again?”
When Leia noticed Xavier’s deep fury she had a headache. ‘Why doesn’t he remain calm? Why does he like eavesdropping so much?’
“If I didn’t come in I wouldn’t have known how this despicable man slanders me. I didn’t offend him. Why don’t I look like a good guy? Why did he label me as a playboy?”
When Xavier retorted and claimed that he was not a playboy he was not very confident. He then added weakly “I’m just… I’m just fond of making friends with a lot of pretty girls.”
Leia was struck speechless.
William ignored Xavier and looked at Leia stating gently “Lei you need to stay in the hospital for a week to fully recover given your condition. I’ll go and go through the admission formalities for you now.”
After the formalities were settled Leia got to stay in the most luxurious room with the highest standards the hospital could offer.
Her face was no longer very swollen but it was quite red. She looked particularly frightening.
While looking at the mirror Leia was deeply worried. “Oh it’s over. I think my face will be ruined. What should I do if it can’t be cured?”
However Xavier was casually playing games at the side. He did not even look up before he said naturally “There’s nothing to be worried about. I don’t care about one’s face. What’s more your red face is pretty cute!”
“Xavier you did it again. My face became this way. Can you be more serious? I notice that you’re insincere…”
Xavier put his phone down and observed her for a while before he replied seriously “I wasn’t joking. I’ll marry you if your face is ruined.”
“Humph! Is it out of pity? I don’t need that!”
Leia finally received his answer but that kind of answer filled her with deep pain.
It turned out that he was aware of her feelings but he purposely refrained from exposing them.
He exposed them now merely out of pity or to make it up to her. It was not because he liked her.
That seemed like a humiliation given how arrogant she was.
“Go away. I don’t want to see you.”
With a cold expression Leia pointed at the door and drove him away rudely.
However Xavier appeared innocent. “What’s the matter? Why do you fly into a rage for no reason? I won’t marry you if you don’t want to marry me. You don’t have to fall out with me do you?”
“You know very well how to infuriate me. I don’t want to talk to you anymore. Go away!”
“Okay don’t be mad. I’ll go now.”
After that he directly left the ward.
Consequently Leia was at a loss for words.
She was infuriated by his frivolous attitude that her eyes turned red. After that she lay on the blanket quietly and burst into tears.
She hated that kind of feeling very much. He always handled their relationship like an outsider regardless if they were talking about superficial or serious topics. His emotions would always remain unaffected. She on the contrary seemed that she’d collapse at any minute. It made her look like an unreasonable maniac.
…
When Renee heard that Leia was hospitalized because of an allergic reaction she hastily rushed over.
However she became confused when she saw Xavier leaning against the wall in the corridor outside the ward while playing a game on his phone.
“Xavier how is Lei? Why didn’t you go into the ward?”
“She’s safe for the time being but she needs to be admitted for a week for observation.”
After Xavier said that his handsome face was full of innocence. “I don’t know what I did to offend her. She wants to cut off her relationship with me.”
“Cut the crap! Lei isn’t an unreasonable person. You must have pushed her limits.”
“Maybe.”
Xavier looked toward the door of Leia’s ward. “I’m not a responsible man let alone one who’s suitable for marriage. It’s wise that she wants to stay away from me.”
“What’s wrong with you? Why do you give up and stop bothering? I remember that you weren’t like this. Do you have some misunderstanding between you?”
Renee looked at him with slight worry.
She felt that he might have some rancor to behave so timidly. He felt something for Lei but he wanted to pretend to be a playboy.
“No there’s no misunderstanding between us. It’s just that I know very well what kind of a person I am…”
After a brief pause he turned off his phone and said with a tinge of sadness “I admit that I was a bit out of line recently. It’s my problem that I made her misunderstand me. It’s time to end this. We should be back to our respective lives now.”
“What’s your plan?”
“I should go home. I won’t see her again if there’s no accident.”
Xavier smiled bitterly before he stood up straight and turned around to leave.
After he returned from Sun Island he realized that he had lost control of his heart.
He should have bid her goodbye but he was unwilling to do so for such a long time. He even regarded Stefan’s sworn enemy as his buddy just to spend more time with her.
Now he was suddenly enlightened. He realized how childish and ridiculous he was.
It was good for both of them to bid each other goodbye sooner.
“You…”
While looking at his back Renee instinctively wanted to stop him but she felt that… it seemed to be unnecessary.
He did not even have the courage to admit his love. He was indeed an irresponsible man.
This kind of man was unsuited for Leia who held pure eagerness and impression toward love.
Renee pushed the door of the ward open and bumped into Leia who was eavesdropping behind the door.
“Er here you are. I… I’m about to go out.”
Leia appeared awkward. Her red face grew more flushed at the moment.
“Stop trying to steal glances at him. He’s gone. If you want to pursue him now you may be able to catch up to him.”
“No I don’t want to!”
Leia said arrogantly “It’s best if we no longer see each other to not exhaust myself.”
Looking at her Renee inevitably thought of herself. She sighed helplessly. “Alas we’re timid girls. We’re both unlucky women who share similar ill fates.”
At that time William walked into the ward.
He saw Renee at a glance. Soon terror and complicated feelings crept up to his face. He appeared flabbergasted. “Miss… Miss Everheart it’s been a long while.”
