Xavier put his hands in his pockets quietly, and watched the happy crowd from afar coldly.


    Even animals would be frightened by his menacing aura.


    "They look so happy, especially Miss Osborne and Santiago.They get along so well that people may


    mistake them for a couple.Santiago looks very friendly too and isn''t as aloof as they say he is.Miss


    Osborne is indeed very attractive and charming."


    Shirley looked at them and smiled, purposely making matters worse.


    "She''s indeed very attractive."


    Xavier finally broke his silence and spoke.He turned to look at Shirley.


    "If she wasn''t, you wouldn''t be so concerned about her."


    Shirley''s expression changed, and she said awkwardly, "What...What do you mean?"


    "Aren''t I right? You always talk about how she''s a perfect match for others, and you watch her


    closely.Doesn''t that mean that you care about her? Are you attracted to her?"


    "Xavier, are you kidding me? Are you angry because I''m talking about her?" Shirley sneered.


    "I''m telling the truth—she looks like the perfect match for Santiago.You can ask others if you don''t


    believe me.Don''t vent your anger on me, and you don''t have to stay here with me either.I can''t ept


    such an honor."


    "You''re overthinking," Xavier scoffed.


    "I''m not staying here for you.I just hate watery mud, so I don''t want to go.It has nothing to do with you,


    so stop ttering yourself."


    "You!"


    Shirley did not expect him to humiliate her like that, and for a moment, she didn''t know how to


    react.Helplessness engulfed her.It seemed as if he was destined to walk far away from her regardless


    of what methods she used.He would no longer put her above everything else like before.


    Meanwhile, all the celebrities were having great fun catching mudfish in the pond.They also started to


    gossip.


    "Look! Mr.Stuart is so considerate.He stays with Shirley like a guardian so she doesn''t get upset.That''s


    true love!"


    "Shirley is good at nothing but controlling Mr.Stuart.As long as she does that, she''ll have a spot in the


    entertainment circle..."


    "Yes, not everyone has such a skill.We need to rely on ourselves.Oh, how sad we are!"


    Leia felt very frustrated as she listened to them, and started digging in the mud wildly to vent her


    frustrations.She kept on digging to try and catch a mudfish, but the only thing she got was a face full of


    mud.


    "Ah, my eyes!"


    She wailed as she stumbled back, unable to see because of the mud in her eyes.She fell over, looking


    very pitiful.


    "Be careful!"


    Santiago strode over and helped her up.

    "Are you okay?"


    "There''s something in my eyes!"


    She kept her eyes closed and felt very embarrassed.


    "Oh, gosh! I didn''t catch a mudfish but I almost turned blind.I''m so useless..."


    Suddenly, she felt someone carry her.


    "Ah, Mr.Dalton, I''m fine.I just need to rest.I can''t let you carry me,"


    Leia protested, but she still hugged his neck tightly.She would never let go of such a golden


    opportunity.
