The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 872

"Huh?"

Xavier looked at the pretty lady leaning on him with a dismayed face, feeling complicated. Not only he was confused, he even felt like laughing.

'What relationship?'

If he remembered correctly, the last time they met was at a banquet; they nearly got into a fight over the question of whether Stefan and Renee should reconcile. The scratch on his arm had just started forming a scab.

If that was the 'relationship' she was talking about, it would certainly be unusual!

"Don't just stand here, darling. Say something, don't make me look like a third wheel…"

Leia acted as if she was a bystander. She exaggerated her actions and pinched the man's arm quietly.

Her first thought was… 'Wow, this guy's muscles feel really hard!'

Shirley's eyes got even redder, and they were now filled with glistening tears. She bit her lip and, devoid of expression, said, "Yeah, say something, Xavier. I can accept whatever your relationship with her is. Just don't… don't make me look like the third wheel."

"Hmm, you can accept anything?"

The woman's words pricked his heart like a thin needle.

He gave Shirley his heart and cherished her carefully for the past four years and pleased her in all sorts of ways like a puppy.

But in the end, their relationship remained one stage above friendship and one below courtship.
