Chapter 1170
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
If Xavier and Liam ever bumped into each other in public, theyâd usually be at each otherâs throats.
Liam was wearing casual clothes at the moment, and his skin was tanned. He even had a brown cowboy hat on his head, complimenting his carefree look. He narrowed his eyes, sizing Xavier up before he stared at Leia solemnly. âI think you should see an eye specialist, sister dearest. Do you realise that man over there is the infamous playboy of Beach City whoâs fooled around with countless women?
Even if you canât marry yourself off, you donât have to lower your standards this much.â
âNo, you donât understand!â Leia stomped her feet and retorted angrily, âBeing a playboy is just a pretence, heâs actually a loyal man! I know we were prejudiced against him earlier because of Ren, but you canât say that about him now! I*
âTsk! Women are bound to side with their men. How long have you been dating him? Are you both planning to elope?â
âUgh, you wouldnât understand. What we have is true love, so you canât make things difficult for him!â Leia stood before Xavier, fearing that her cunning brother would hurt her beloved man.
âTrue love?â Liam raised his brows with a scornful expression. He looked over Leiaâs head and said to Xavier,â And what do you have to say about this? Are you planning to hide behind my sisterâs skirts while she defends you?â
Xavier stated coldly, âI have nothing to say. Youâre right-lâm just an infamous playboy in Beach City. What could I possibly know about true love?â
âWhat did you say?â A dangerous gleam appeared in Liamâs eyes. Although he loved to bully Leia, he adored her very much. He could never bear to see her suffer, and if anyone dared to bully her, he would gladly teach that person a lesson. He would never let men approach Leia easily, which was the reason why Leia had been single for more than twenty years. Hence, he was furious when he heard someone his sister loved say such things. He was controlling his urge to punch Xavier.
âDidnât I make myself clear? Iâm just a playboy who lives in the moment. Thereâs no true love between us. Iâm just fooling around with your sister.â Xavier remarked casually as he stuffed his hands inside his pockets. He smirked at Liam, giving off the aura of a playboy who never gave his heart up to anyone.
âYouâre asking for it!â Liam snarled as he lunged forward and punched Xavierâs nose.
âAh!â Leia screamed and pushed Liam away. âAre you out of your mind?! Why did you punch his nose? Donât you know thatâs my favourite feature of his? What if you ruin it?â
While feeling sorry for Xavier and checking if his nose was okay, she sobbed and apologised, âIâm sorry, Liam has a bad temper like me. He never thinks before he acts, and only Ren can handle him. Please donât hold a grudge against him.
After all, heâs your future brother-in-law.â
Consequently, both Xavier and Liam were at a loss for words.
Leia used a handkerchief to wipe away the blood on Xavierâs face. When she saw that his nose was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief. âThank God your nose is okay. Donât worry, I still love you.â
Liam smacked his forehead with an exasperated groan.â Woman, can you have some dignity? I thought I was a kissass, but youâre worse than me. Whatâs wrong with this family?
