Cnapter 1322
Xavier was used to being a kiss-ass, so he was blind to the fact.
Leia walked out of the room. The other celebrities had caught a lot of mudfish and returned to thehouse already. Santiago was the last to come ashore. When Leia was not around, he kept to himselfand spoke to no one. He showed everyone a sullen face and maintained his image as the aloof topactor.
"Mr. Dalton, what did you get? Let me help you!” Leia ran to the shore enthusiastically and extendedher hand to Santiago.
Santiago's gaze softened, and he smiled warmly. "Are your eyes okay?”novelbin
"Well, yeah. I just got a bit of mud in my eyes.”
"I'm sorry about what happened just now. At first, I wanted to..." He trailed off, feeling defeated. He hadwanted to help her wipe her eyes but Xavier beat him to it and carried her off.
Xavier had obviously been trying to challenge Santiago, and the other celebrities had watchedcuriously. He wanted to fight Xavier at that moment, but held himself back after much consideration.Now, he felt he was a coward. He gave up on the person he cared about. It was no different fromsacrificing his happiness.
Inexplicably, he recalled the first time he met Leia three years ago...
"Mr. Dalton?" Leia waved a hand in front of his face, feeling like his gaze was as strange as thatscumbag Xavier's.
"I'm sorry, my mind was elsewhere.” Santiago regained his wits and held her hand to come ashore. Hehad missed her three years ago because of his cowardice. Three years later, fate had put them backtogether again, so it had to be written in the stars. He would not let her go again.
"I caught quite a lot today, so I'll fry mudfish for you. What flavor do you like?" Santiago smiled andasked her.
"Eh? Are... Are you going to cook for me?” Leia thought she heard him wrong. He said he wanted tocook for her instead of everyone else. It meant that the dish was just for her.
"Yeah, I'll cook for you. What flavor do you like?" Santiago repeated himself. He did not want to beataround the bush now. After all, Xavier was upfront, and if Santiago behaved superficially, she wouldnever have feelings for him after filming ended. She would only see him as her idol.
And that was not the identity he wanted.
"Oh, my! You're so nice to me, I'm flattered! I'm fine with whatever you cook, but if it's okay with you,make it sour and spicy. I like sour and spicy food," Leia said excitedly. After spending some time withhim, they had become close. They were no longer a star and his fan, but good friends. Santiago left tocook, and Xavier stood up.
"Let me get the firewood ready for you.” Xavier sneered and drove everyone away before he followedSantiago into the kitchen.
