Leia also spread her arms to block Renee’s path. “If Xavier is telling the truth, then if you go now, you’lljust be sacrificing yourself. I won’t let you take this risk!”
Renee was deeply moved by their concern for her, but she felt that they were overreacting. Shechuckled and said, “Don’t worry, you two. I just want to resolve the conflict. I’m not gonna sacrificemyself. I would sacrifice them first before I sacrifice myself. You know what I’m capable of.”
“Of course I do, but you don’t know what the Murphy family and the other enemies are capable of.”
Xavier’s tone was heavy as he said, “Do you know how many people in Beach City want to bring Stefdown? The Murphy family is just the tip of the iceberg.”
“So? I’ll take care of all of them, no matter how many there are.”
Renee clenched her fists. Her beautiful face displayed absolute confidence.
“You’re too optimistic. The reason these people have not been able to defeat Stef for so many years isnot because they’re not strong enough or because the Hunt family is too strong, but because Stef hasnever had any weaknesses. Now that he has you and the children, he suddenly has a lot moreweaknesses. I’m not sure if he can win this time…”
Xavier had always been smart. He sighed and said, “If I’m guessing correctly, the reason why Stefsuddenly left Sun Island and broke off all contact with you is to ensure the safety of you and thechildren. If you go back now, you’ll just be a burden to him.”
“You have a point, but I don’t want to be a coward and just hide here while he’s out there fighting. I’llfight alongside him!”
Renee said stubbornly.
“No, you’re not thinking straight. I won’t let you go.”
Leia wrapped her arms around Renee’s waist and firmly refused to let her take another step forward. Atthe same time, she begged Xavier for help with teary eyes. “Xavier, help me convince her. When shebecomes stubborn, she won’t listen to anyone.”
Xavier gestured to Leia to let Renee go first, then said unhurriedly, “If you really want to go, we won’tstop you, but before you do, let me ask you a question. Have you watched a popular TV show called“Game of Thrones” before?”
This question was so sudden that it stunned both Renee and Leia.
“Xavier, I asked you to convince her. Why are you talking about a TV show?”
Leia felt like beating him up.
Renee was curious. She raised her eyebrows and asked, “I don’t watch a lot of TV. What are you tryingto say?”
““Game of Thrones” tells the story of a family persecuted by the king. They rose up in rebellion andseized their own political power. Originally, the eldest son Robb was the one with the most leadershipand the one who looked like the protagonist the most. He recruited troops from north to south, claimingvictory wherever he goes…”
Xavier told the story while licking the lollipop.
He told the story in an interesting way, just like a storyteller would. Even the irritated Leia becamedrawn to the story. She asked, “And then what happened? Did Robb win the war?”
“Robb was supposed to win because he was about to recruit more troops and strengthen his armyfurther by marrying the daughter of a powerful family. If they united against the king, they had a verygood chance of winning. However, this Robb was a hopeless romantic. During the march, he fell in lovewith a nurse and the two had a child. Therefore, he decided to apologize to the family whose daughterhe was supposed to marry and cancel the engagement…”
“Canceling an engagement was a great shame for a prestigious family. That allied family was naturallyunhappy, but they did not say that they wanted revenge at first. However, Robb was just brain-dead. Hebrought his mother, his wife, his officers, and all his close aides to the family’s stronghold to apologize,and even expressed his hope that they would continue to be allies.”
Xavier could not help but snort. “I’ve never seen such a foolish protagonist before.”novelbin
Renee slightly furrowed her eyebrows and asked, “How did it end?”
“They got wiped out, of course. The only survivor was Robb’s little sister who was saved by a kind-hearted person. This scene is famous. The fans call it the “Red Wedding”. Robb, his wife, and hismother all died at the banquet, their throats slit. His wife had the most tragic ending. She was pregnant,so they stabbed her in the stomach…”
“Stop!”
