The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 979

"Bah, you really are the king of playboys and jerks. So, what you're saying is that you don't really like Leia, and you're just messing around with her out of habit?" Renee questioned sharply. She had to confirm Xavier's feelings for Leia before she could help Leia make her choice.

"I don't want to answer this." There was a subtle uneasiness under Xavier's nonchalance. He looked at Renee indifferently and said, "You're not my girlfriend, so I'm not obligated to tell you about my feelings."

"Don't try to evade this with your playfulness, Xavier. Answer my question if you're a man. I know you're not a real playboy, you're just disguising yourself." Renee had hit the nail on the head. She still remembered that he nearly died in the fire to save her. No matter how vile he pretended to be, he could not hide his true self as a brave and responsible man.

"What does it have to do with you? Your righteous indignation may make me misunderstand you."

"Huh? What do you mean?

"What do you think?"

Still behaving casually, Xavier advanced slowly toward Renee, then tilted up her chin and smiled slyly. "A man might misunderstand that a woman likes him if she cares too much about him… I had feelings for you once, you know. Now that you're single again, my feelings for you might be easily rekindled!"

"You… you're crazy!" His words gave Renee goosebumps and she pushed him away hard. 'Damn it, it's just like what Lei told me. He is just a playboy who likes to flirt - his mind cannot be read.'

"I'm warning you - I don't care about your reasons, but if you really have feelings for Lei, you'd better confess to her as soon as possible. She might look like a carefree person, but she is very sensitive inside. Her previous relationship was traumatic, so she can't afford to be hurt again. If you have no feelings for her, stop flirting with her. She will take it seriously and it will hurt her later on!" Renee warned Xavier seriously.

His eyes darkened and he asked, "What happened to her previous relationship? Tell me about it."
