Chapter 1300

Author: Mizuki Sei
Leia now realized that Xavier had the final say here.

"Do you want me to say yes?" Xavier immediately understood Leia's intense look, and smiled mischievously at her.

"Of course!" Leia gritted her teeth and whispered in his ear, "You know why we came, so we have to keep an eye on Shirley at all times to find the truth as soon as possible."

"What's in it for me if I agree?"

"What do you want?" Leia clenched her fists angrily. 'Even at a time like this, that scumbag still wants to take advantage of me. How inhumane!'

"Not much... I just want you to obey me for the next few days." Xavier pouted at her and whined, "You bullied me so much the past few days, it really broke my heart…"

Leia cursed inwardly but forced a smile onto her face. "You want me to listen to you? Sure, you're the king here now, so everyone will listen to you!"

"That's right!" Xavier touched Leia's head in satisfaction as if he was petting an animal.

Everyone saw how they whispered to each other like a young c

    A videographer followed the group with a camera, recording all of their actions and words.Adam sat in the studio, watching everything. At first, he was worried that the episode might be ruined, and even decided to shoot another episode after Xavier and Leia left. However, both Xavier and Leia were surprisingly interesting, especially Leia. She was a tough woman with tons of energy, and she looked like Xavier's significant other given the latter's arrogant, germophobic, and weak nature. As an outsider, he began to ship their romance too."Yes, get more footage of them! That's exactly what I want. I'm sure it'll be popular when it's broadcasted." Adam held a walkie-talkie and excitedly ordered the frontline filming staff. He had been a director for many popular variety shows, so he could tell at a glance what kinds of scenes would be liked or disliked.The first three episodes of Shirley had nothing interesting to show for, so he figured that this season would be ruined. But now, it

    Goosebumps prickled Leia's skin, and she immediately pulled her hand away. "Yeah, I'm sure you know this place well. After all, you sleep in town at night, and even ask the local villagers to carry you out of the village. Of course, you'll know the place."Shirley's expression turned livid. "Miss, are you making a joke? I didn't do that. I sleep in the village at night.""Ah, so what if you sleep in town? You don't have to hide it. You're an actress, so I'm sure you just want to memorize your script in a better place. I'm sure the audience can understand your situation!" Leia criticized Shirley, but none of the camera crew tried to stop her. On the contrary, they became quite excited because they were annoyed by Shirley putting on airs. They had to wake up early in the morning and they had to spend a long time waiting for her to come back to the village from town. It was ridiculous!Previously, no one had dared to say anything about it, but unexpectedly, the new guest was pretty bol

    Shirley saw a chance and took it. "Ah!" She screamed and fell backwards. She was on a slope, so she tumbled down it."Shirley, are you okay?" Xavier caught up to them, and quickly went to help Shirley.Shirley rolled for a while before she hit a stone. Her head was bleeding, and her ankle was sprained. "Ah, it hurts so bad! Is my leg broken?""No, you're going to be fine. It's just a sprain." Xavier inspected Shirley's leg before he took off his coat. He used his coat and a straight branch as a makeshift cast, then leaned down and carried her on his back.Leia was scared out of her wits. She just wanted to get to the bottom of this. She hadn't pushed Shirley, but the angle of the shot made it appear like she had purposely pushed Shirley down the hill. "How... How is she?" Leia swallowed, her face pale."Get out of the way!" Xavier carried Shirley and pushed Leia aside, then said coldly, "You're out of line today. It's very disappointing.""I didn't..." Leia wanted to explain bu

    Shirley was injured, so filming had to be paused temporarily. Both Xavier and the crew helped send Shirley to the hospital in town together."Doctor, how is she?" Once the doctor finished checking Shirley, Xavier quickly went forward. "She's fine, it's just a small fracture. We'll get her a cast, and she'll recover in a week," the doctor explained calmly. Actually, it was just a twisted ankle, but Shirley had secretly transferred some money to him and demanded he say that it was a fracture. So, the doctor went against his conscience and did so.Tsk! Rich people nowadays had peculiar thoughts. They were fine but pretended to be injured. Did they have nothing else better to do?"That's great." Xavier heaved a sigh of relief. If Shirley was fine, Leia wouldn't get in too much trouble. Xavier walked into the ward and looked at Shirley who was lying in bed. "Don't worry, it's just a small fracture. You're fine. You'll recover after laying in bed for a week."Shirley's eyes were tear

    When Shirley saw Xavier's pained expression, she hung her head guiltily. "I'm sorry. I didn't expect that affair to hurt you that much...""You didn't expect it?" Xavier scoffed, feeling like he had just heard the world's funniest joke. He said sarcastically, "You were the woman I adored but you seduced my father for the sake of resources. How could you say that you didn't expect it to hurt me?" It had happened long ago, and he had kept it buried deep in his heart. Now, that pain had resurfaced again. The incident had traumatized him so much that he lost all faith in relationships, and didn't believe in pure love anymore."You were the first person I gave my heart to. I adored you and doted on you like you were my child. I went against my principles so many times because of you, and the whole of Beach City laughed at me for being a kiss-ass. But I never once regretted it. I felt that you would be touched one day, and that you would sincerely accept me. But in the end... not only was

    "You're threatening me?" Xavier disliked being threatened the most, and could see through her schemes. "What do you take me for? Am I some kind of item offered to make peace?" "Did I?" Shirley smiled bitterly, looking very self-deprecating. "I just want to be your friend, but you're saying I threatened you. Do you want us to hate each other forever? Will that make you happy?"Xavier was at a loss for words. He wasn't happy about it, but it seemed like she just wanted them to be friends again. There would be no reason to plot against him just for that. "Fine, I can make peace with you and be your friend from now on. I hope you can keep your promise though; this thing ends here. Don't let it become worse." "Okay, you have my word." Shirley nodded and spread her arms out. "Can we hug each other as friends?""Isn't that unnecessary?" Xavier frowned, instantly cautious."It's just a hug between friends, there's no harm in it. What's more, I nearly died just now. Can't you console me

    It was a very normal statement, but Leia could tell that Shirley was provoking her. She didn't know if she was overthinking it, but that kind of gaze disgusted her."It seems like I came at the wrong time. I don't want to disturb you, so I'll go now..." Leia bit her lip and kept her head low as she was about to leave. "No, it's fine." Xavier let go of Shirley and said to Leia coldly, "You caused such a great accident. Don't you want to resolve it?" He was on Leia's side but he could not favor her at a moment like this. Firstly, he didn't want to spoil her. Secondly, he didn't want to make Shirley jealous in case she decided to take revenge on Leia. Leia assumed that he was sorry for his first love, and bitterness and envy overwhelmed her. She didn't want to retreat, so she braced herself and walked into the ward before asking Shirley, "You know very well that I didn't push you down the hill on purpose, but I won't try to shift the blame either. So, what is it you want? Medical fee

    "I want to but I don't know if Xavier..." Shirley looked at Xavier expectantly. "You don't have to ask him—the whole city knows that he's your number one fan. He's been running around like your servant for so many years, so I'm sure he's long wanted to marry you. You don't have to ask him," Leia glanced at Xavier and said enthusiastically. Xavier pursed his lips and made no reply. He just stared at Leia indifferently. "Isn't that true, Mr. Stuart? Miss White made such a bold statement, so shouldn't you express your thoughts on the matter?" Leia turned the conversation to Xavier, but did not dare to look at him out of guilt. She did not know what was on her mind. She was sad, but she pretended to be unconcerned. She did not want them to get back together with each other, but she kept making things worse. She must be crazy. "What else can I say? You're so good at talking, so you can help me say everything." Xavier had been watching Leia the whole time, looking displeased. Leia

    Stefan remained quiet as he calmly watched Renee. He extended his hand to touch her face but retrieved it before he could.She used to be the woman he was familiar with and the one he had hugged and kissed countless times, but now, he didn't even dare to touch her. "I think she doesn't even want you here. She must hate you so much and is disappointed in you. She'll be even more pressured if you stay here, and it'll push her further from this world. So please, get the hell out of here if you want the best for her!"Justin could not hold himself back from scolding Stefan. If Jovan was telling the truth, Stefan must be aware of the fact that Jovan was holding Renee hostage. Yet, he remained indifferent and feigned ignorance. He didn't even care if Renee was fine. What a cruel bastard! Justin was disappointed in Stefan. He wanted nothing more than to see what was really on Stefan's mind."Take good care of her." Stefan did not want to defend himself. He glanced at Renee, relucta

    "What did you do to her?!" Stefan interrogated Jovan coldly, his eyes teary. "She isn't the kind to kill herself! What the hell did you do to her?" "Try to wake her up if you want to know." Jovan was pale. His previous sickness, coupled with his recent blood donation to Renee, made him very weak. Despite that, he refused to stop infuriating others. "Do you think I can't do anything to you? Do you really think that?" Stefan could no longer hold himself back and strangled Jovan. "I'm going to kill you! Repent for the terrible things you've done!"He couldn't imagine the kind of thing that could force the strong and stubborn Renee to resist by using such a desperate means. "You obviously won't go easy on me! I'm sure of that!" Jovan sneered. His pale face turned flushed as he suffocated from Stefan's powerful grip. "But you'd better kill yourself first if you want to avenge her! She ended up like this because of you." "What?" Stefan's face was frosty. He strengthened his grip a

    Jovan slowly got up from the ground, looking incredibly weak. He whispered, "She lost too much blood. The doctor claimed she's out of danger, but…she hasn't woken up.""What did you say?" Stefan and Justin were bewildered. They couldn't process his words."So, she was the female college student who tried to kill herself?" Stefan said. He staggered after linking the information he had heard from a nurse with the things that Jovan had said."Stop acting dumb! You're so smart, how could you have missed that?" Jovan glared coldly stared at Stefan, scrutinizing him in disdain. "You were just too scared to face the truth and your woman! You're such a coward! You're an embarrassment to your family!""Agreed!" Justin added; he suddenly found Jovan useful, especially when the latter started insulting Stefan. It felt just right."Although I'm a fallback guy, I'm braver than you. I accept that she doesn't love me, and I'm willing to give it a try with her. And although this guy's a vill

    Stefan frowned, doubtful. He looked vigilantly at Jovan, who had collapsed on the ground. "What do you mean by this?"Jovan kept coughing and said nothing. His lips grew pale as he sneered.Justin's eyes were cold, and he held back his urge to beat up Jovan. "Hmph! Obviously, this is a scam!"He demanded condescendingly, "How dare you barge into my territory and take away my woman! Don't you fear my family and me at all?"Jovan, filled with disdain, looked at Justin as if he was a fool. "Stop talking. You don't even have the right to join this battle."To Jovan, only Stefan was qualified and powerful enough to be his enemy."How dare you say that!" Justin was infuriated. He got down on one knee and grabbed Jovan. "Your family always says nasty things! You two are the same. If we start fighting, I'll make sure to cut your tongue first!""Did I say something wrong?" Jovan sized Justin up, ridiculing Justin with mock compassion. "Don't you have any self-awareness? You're just a fal

    Stefan frowned and asked solemnly, "Aren't you a top hacker? Hack into this hospital's inpatient system. Then, we'll know where she is.""Yes, you're right." Still, Justin wanted to challenge Stefan. He said indifferently, "But you're Jovan's cousin. It's more convenient for you to make a call instead of me hacking into their system."Yes, Justin could hack into their system, but calling Jovan would be quicker. And what they needed the most was time."He and I…" Stefan sneered, flexing his fingers. "The fact we didn't kill each other is considered peaceful. He's not as obedient as you think.""You'll know by calling him."Justin had heard about the complicated internal fights of the Hunt family, but he felt that Stefan was exaggerating."Jovan is a Hunt no matter what. Plus, he's still working at Hunt Enterprise. Just call him," Justin said. "Fine." Stefan found Justin logical. His private grudges with Jovan were not important because finding Renee immediately was the most impo

    Both Stefan and Justin arrived at Grace Hospital quickly. However, Stefan suddenly stopped before he entered the hospital. He looked at Justin curiously."Let's go! It's urgent. Stop standing here!"Justin hurriedly ran. When he turned around, he found that Stefan had not caught up with him. Confused, he asked Stefan, "Something is puzzling me. Don't you want me to stop seeing her? Why did you let me come with you?" Stefan narrowed his eyes and interrogated Justin suspiciously, "Did you lie to me? Or are you plotting something?" "That's nonsense! Don't take me as you. I'm not full of schemes like you!" Justin sounded disdainful. In comparison to Stefan, Justin was not full of schemes. He also looked down upon Stefan since the latter was always vigilant.Justin answered honestly, "Yeah, I don't want you to meet her ever, but I'm sure she wants to see you if she's in danger. Yes, I hate you—but I want her to be happy." He guessed that Renee must be in a serious state since Jov

    "Uh…" After some contemplation, Elijah nodded. "I know what to do, Mr. Hunt. It looks like you can see far beyond the current situation. Just leave this to me.""Of course, the most important thing is to have fun."Stefan remained calm; he didn't feel like he had stepped over the line. He merely wanted Justin to learn about the cruelty of the world since Justin was always being protected so well. Whenever he did something wrong, he had to pay a price for it.Besides, Stefan merely did it for his aunt, who had taken the gunshot for nothing. When they reached a consensus, Justin came to meet Stefan. "Hey…" After a pause, he said with dissatisfaction and helplessness, "Would you like to go with me?"Stefan raised his brows in confusion."I mean, do you want to visit Phoenix with me?" Justin sighed. He looked naive, like a college student, as he confessed, "I found Jovan. I don't know why he's so good at countersurveillance. After exiting the emergency room, he transferred her to

    "So, what do you want to do?" Stefan asked emotionlessly. He kept watching Nora, who was lying unconscious in the ward."At the very least, we have to teach the Baldwin family a lesson and make the public aware of your family's power as the head of The Great Eight of Beach City. It's not just about venting anger, but more about which side the various great families will take. It concerns the future of your family, too. We can't take it lightly!"Elijah could not hide his indignation. As Stefan's assistant, he was no longer merely an ordinary employee. He was loyal to Stefan and the Hunt family. He couldn't bear to see Stefan suffer any injustice or watch the Hunt family get humiliated. If Stefan hadn't stopped him, he would have gathered all the manpower to fight the Baldwins. Although he had fought Cadmus and Tiger, he had yet to defeat them. He tried to figure out a way to make a counterattack, his face shadowed in gloom.Stefan turned and calmly looked at Elijah. "How shoul

    When Justin was willing to send them on an errand again, Cadmus was eager to express his loyalty."No, you don't have to risk your lives for me. That's bloody and horrible. All you need to do is find someone for me." After a pause, Justin added, "Jovan Hunt, Stefan's younger cousin." Cadmus clenched his fists and said fiercely, "It's another Hunt! Old Master Baldwin is right. The Hunt family is full of bad people. If we knew, we shouldn't have dismantled the bombs in Hunt Enterprise. The Hunt family has strengthened their security system now. It's hard to set up bombs there if we want to." Justin felt a headache when he heard Cadmus babbling. He rubbed his temples, and said tiredly, "Stop. We don't have to blow up Hunt Enterprise. I just want to find him. Do you get me? Find him. That's enough!"He stressed his intention of locating Jovan as if he were giving a simple and clear order to robots. Most of the time, Cadmus and Tiger were like AI. Real robots were probably more obedie
