"Thank you for understanding," Renee said emotionlessly as she stood there. She knew she was
probably ill. In the past, she was an enthusiastic, straightforward, and bright sunflower, but now... she
had be like moss that only grew in the dark. She was indifferent even when faced with others ''
love and goodwill.
Atst, Leia left the hospital without Renee.
Xavier had been waiting at Everheart Manor, and was confused to see Leiae home alone. "What
happened? Where''s Renee?" He had thought that Leia would be able to bring Renee home, but things
didn''t look that simple now.

"She didn''t want toe back." Leia walked into the manor listlessly.
"See! I told you-she wants to be with Jovan. You can''t just force her toe home." Xavier smirked
and held his hand out to Leia. "You lost the bet, so tell me... How should I punish you?" 2
Xavier and Leia had made a bet a week ago. Xavier felt that Renee didn''t want toe home since
she had not contacted them for a while, but Leia had insisted that Jovan must have locked Renee up or
brainwashed her, which was why she couldn''t return. They had agreed that Leia could do anything to
Xavier if she managed to bring Renee home, but if she couldn''t... then Leia would be at Xavier''s mercy.
Xavier had been prepared to lose the bet knowing how close Leia and Renee were, so this oue
very much surprised him.
"How do you want to punish me?" Leia turned to Xavier, looking dejected and heartbroken. "Do
whatever you want-1 don''t care anymore!"
Her response made Xavier worry, and he asked carefully, "What happened? Why do I feel like you''re
on the verge of breaking down?"
"What else could it be?" Leia sighed deeply. "You guessed right-Ren didn’te back because she
didn''t want to. Jovan had nothing to do with it, and he even helped her get a pair of pretty new eyes.
Ren isn’t blind anymore." 1 "Really?" Xavier was happy for Renee. "Isn''t that a good thing? Why are
you in such a bad mood?" "It is a good thing, and Renee should be happy about it... but she''s be
worse. I wanted to help her, but I didn''t know how. She didn''t even want to face us." Leia held her head,
looking downcast. "For the first time, I found that I felt like I didn''t know Ren. She seems to have
changed. Do you think there''s something wrong with her eyes? Did they snatch her soul away?" "I don''t
think so, but there is an exnation in the medical field for cases like this," Xavier said solemnly.
Leia''s eyes lit up and she asked, "What kind of exnation?"
