“I didn’t say that. Anyway… I’ll leave you to your thoughts.” Shirley smiled and said vaguely, “That’s all Ican say. If you want to know the truth, you’d better find the culprit.”
Leia was speechless. She clenched her fists and stopped asking any more questions. The answer wasobvious.
“Also, you’d better stay away from Xavier. He’s Stefan’s best buddy. He’ll always take his buddy’s side.If not, Stefan wouldn’t know about Quinton having surgery so soon and even happen to have thedoctor’s contact.” When Shirley noticed that Leia had fallen for her trick, she continued making mattersworse.
However, the truth was that the accident had nothing to do with Stefan. It was related to Stefan’ssignificant other, so she felt that it was related to Stefan too. Shirley felt that she hadn’t lied by sayingthat.
“I knew that scumbag Stefan was a cruel villain!’ Leia felt that Stefan was the mastermind behind itbecause of Shirley’s words, and figured that Xavier must have helped Stefan.
She could not stay here any longer. She had to return to Beach City to protect Renee from that villain.
Meanwhile, the burning fire in the kitchen predicted the imminent battle between the two men who werethere.
Santiago had rolled up his sleeves and was wearing an apron. He was cutting the ingredientsattentively, looking attractive as he worked.
Most people would be mesmerized by him, but Xavier, who was sitting by the stove and making a fire,found Santiago detestable. He broke the firewood roughly as if he was imagining it was Santiago’s arm,
and said to Santiago icily, “So, what’s your great plan, hmm? Just tell me if you want
money. How much do you want?”
Santiago sneered and harshly threw the ingredients into the pot. The water splashed on Xavier’s face,and Santiago smiled vindictively. “Mr. Stuart, you’re filthy rich. How much can you pay to get rid of me?”
Xavier wiped away the water on his face and gritted his teeth. “As expected, you’re showing your truecolors. I can easily see through a scheming man like you; you can only fool a dumb girl like Leia. It’sgood that you’re finally being honest.”
“I’m a scheming actor, and Miss Osborne is a dumb girl. Shirley and you are the only ones who arenoble and smart. Is that what you’re saying?” Santiago met Xavier’s gaze, his tone even but firm.
Xavier felt that he was a shrewd man who had met countless people, but he felt that Santiago was onpar with him. Santiago was an actor, but he radiated an aura that suggested he was no ordinaryperson. It was indeed strange.
“Which company do you belong to? Who is your backer?” Xavier narrowed his eyes and demanded.
“I didn’t sign a contract with any company. I have my team, and I accept jobs myself. No capitalistssupport me either… If we’re talking about support, I only have a lot of fans like Miss Osborne,”Santiago said slowly.novelbin
“You know that she’s your fan. Her feelings for you are what a fan feels for her idol. You’d better notflatter yourself and let your imagination run wild. Don’t even dream of living a rich and carefree life byhooking up with a rich, young lady.”
