Shirley was injured, so filming had to be paused temporarily. Both Xavier and the crew helped send


    Shirley to the hospital in town together.


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


    "She''s fine, it''s just a small fracture. We''ll get her a cast, and she''ll recover in a week,” the doctor


    exined calmly. Actually, it was just a twisted ankle, but Shirley had secretly transferred some money


    to him and demanded he say that it was a fracture. So, the doctor went against his conscience and did


    so.


    Tsk! Rich people nowadays had peculiar thoughts. They were fine but pretended to be injured. Did they


    have 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 small


    fracture. You''re fine. You''ll recover afterying in bed for a week.” Shirley''s eyes were teary as she


    patted 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 some


    compassion. The most important thing was that he had tofort her. If not, she might get angry and


    expose the incident, then Leia would suffer.


    "Let''s not mention the past. I''m very sorry for the ident that happened today. I''ll say sorry to you on


    behalf of Leia.”


    Xavier put away his usual frivolity and said sincerely. His statement made Shirley angry, and she


    sneered, "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 want


    Shirley to manipte the affair and make things difficult for Leia.


    “Let it go?" Shirley sneered. "The camera was rolling and many people were watching. Miss Osborne


    wanted to push me down the hill and kill me. Should I let it go just because I didn''t die? Do you think


    that''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 let


    the public judge for themselves. If they think it''s fine, I''ll let it go. If they think it''s unforgivable, I''ll hold


    her 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 towards


    me for the sake of a woman who nearly killed me. Did you forget that you were the one who guided me


    and brought me into this circle? You helped me get my current position. I''m the flower you raised, but


    you 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 so


    disappointed in you now,” Xavier said angrily.
