Chapter 1304

Shirley was injured, so filming had to be paused temporarily. Both Xavier and the crew helped sendShirley to the hospital in town together.

"Doctor, how is she?" Once the doctor finished checking Shirley, Xavier quickly went forward.novelbin

"She's fine, it's just a small fracture. We'll get her a cast, and she'll recover in a week,” the doctorexplained calmly. Actually, it was just a twisted ankle, but Shirley had secretly transferred some moneyto him and demanded he say that it was a fracture. So, the doctor went against his conscience and didso.

Tsk! Rich people nowadays had peculiar thoughts. They were fine but pretended to be injured. Did theyhave 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 smallfracture. You're fine. You'll recover after laying in bed for a week.” Shirley's eyes were teary as shepatted the side of the bed. " Come nearer and sit here. Why did things have to turn out like this?"

After a brief hesitation, Xavier sat beside her. Shirley was injured, so he had to show her somecompassion. The most important thing was that he had to comfort her. If not, she might get angry andexpose the incident, then Leia would suffer.

"Let's not mention the past. I'm very sorry for the accident that happened today. I'll say sorry to you onbehalf of Leia.”

Xavier put away his usual frivolity and said sincerely. His statement made Shirley angry, and shesneered, "This was a conflict between Leia and me, so why are you the one saying sorry?”

"You know that she didn't do it on purpose. Can't you just let it go?” Xavier asked. He did not wantShirley to manipulate the affair and make things difficult for Leia.

“Let it go?" Shirley sneered. "The camera was rolling and many people were watching. Miss Osbornewanted to push me down the hill and kill me. Should I let it go just because I didn't die? Do you thinkthat's fair?"

“What do you want then?”

"What can I do...” Shirley raised her head and smiled wickedly. “I just want to expose this affair and letthe public judge for themselves. If they think it's fine, I'll let it go. If they think it's unforgivable, I'll holdher responsible for it!"

"Is there no room for negotiation?" Xavier frowned, his voice cold. His patience was almost exhausted.

Shirley looked at him, then burst into tears. "Xavier, why are you being so aloof? You're so cold towardsme for the sake of a woman who nearly killed me. Did you forget that you were the one who guided meand brought me into this circle? You helped me get my current position. I'm the flower you raised, butyou want to ruin all that now?"

"The person who ruined you is nobody but yourself. If you didn't do that back then, I wouldn't be sodisappointed in you now,” Xavier said angrily.
