The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 983

"But you're also awesome, pretty, and unique. Why can't you feel my fondness for you?"

"Why, you…"

Leia's calmness was fluttered by him. Consequently, she blushed faintly.

It might be because she had some wine, or it might be because of the romantic night. When she looked up at him, her clear eyes were watery and eager. "Tell me. Do you like me?"

That was the first time she asked him that question directly.

There seemed to be a tinge of ambiguity between them in the past. She seemed to have received some hints from him, but she did not dare to confirm it. Afraid that she would be misunderstood, she never dared to ask him that.

After what happened tonight, she was indeed quite annoyed by that kind of endless ambiguity.

She had no right to take a step forward in their relationship, but she was afraid of having regrets if she retreated…

"I…"

It might be beyond Xavier's imagination that Leia would take the initiative to lay everything on the table, given her abnormally high self-esteem.

At first, he handled that relationship with great ease, but now, he was in a slight panic. He did not know how to handle it.

However, his hesitation hurt her self-esteem.

Unexpectedly, she would suffer a loss the first time she took the initiative.

"Okay, you don't have to give me an answer. We're adults. I understand."

Adults, when truly in love, moved forward bravely.
