The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 988

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.
