Female Novel
Chapter 1134
Leia decided to do what she had been doing for a while and focus on her career.
Men are nothing! There’s no reason to let them affect her emotions!
“Anyway, thank you for today. I’ll make it up to you somehow. Goodbye!” Leia told Xavier and walkedup to the side of the road to stop a cab.
She wanted to stay away from Xavier-not because she hated him, but because she was just toovulnerable and fell in love too easily. Therefore, she would quarantine herself and forceherself to getaway from him.
Nonetheless, Xavier stepped in front of her, stubbornly stopping her from leaving. ’Be more direct withyour gratitude. It lacks sincerity if you put it off.”
Leia glared at him, but she was also curious. ‘In that case, what do you want? I don’t have any moneywith me.”
“You have time, don’t you? I’m hungry and was thinking about supper. You can keep me company,”Xavier said directly.
“A playboy like you could summon a truckload of ladies with a single phone call. And you’d still ratherhave me?”
“Of course. You, and only you. So? Are you game?”
“Yes!” Leia agreed to it right away, resigning herself to her fate. “It’s my fault that I have to owe you.”
“Then get in the car,” Xavier beamed, skipping towards his car to open the door for her. He wouldrather relish in this delight than enjoy the company of a dozen ladies.
They drove steadily through the night sky illuminated by myriad lights-on streets completely devoid oftraffic and pedestrians.
Neither spoke as a relaxing tune played on the radio, leaving the air charged with a touch of playfulflirting.novelbin
It was not until Xavier drove into a luxurious apartment’s basement that Leia realized something waswrong.
Leaning tightly against her seat, she stared nervously at him as she demanded, “Aren’t we going forsupper? Where are we?!”
“My place!” Xavier said, focusing on his parking at his reserved lot just then, twirling the steering wheelhandily.
“Your place? W-What do you want?!’
“What could I want? To cheer you up,” Xavier replied, reclining against his seat as he stared at her, hisflirtatious gaze seemingly drawing her in.
Leia folded her arms before her chest and glared at him warily. “You’re a monster! I just got out ofprison, and that’s all you can think of?”
“What did I think of?”
“You know damn well what,” Leia snapped, her face flushed as she tried to exit the car. “To think that Iactually felt touched by what you did for me. But you turned out to be a pig! Just like every other man inthe world! Now open the door, or I’m calling the cops!”
Xavier finally understood what she meant. He couldn’t stop himself from laughing while clutching hisstomach. “Haha! You’re really wary, aren’t you? I’m telling you, you’re just adorable!”
Even so, there was no hiding the tenderness in his eyes.
“You’re laughing?! I’ll beat you up, believe it! You saw I can dish out a beating!” She cried, raising herfist to hit him.
Nonetheless, Xavier handily caught her wrists and held her against her seat, and said with a tonebrimming with desire, “Weren’t you always dissatisfied that we’re just friends? We could breach thatgap tonight and properly enjoy…”
