"Haha! That''s ridiculous. You didn''t care enough about Ren and were ignorant about her condition, but
    you have the nerve to say that I''m lying. Why would I lie for no reason? What good will it do me? I''m
    not lying, and the person who feels guilty here is the real liar." Leia didn''t expect that Stefan would see
    through her lies so easily, and started rambling out of nervousness.
    After hearing Leia, even Xavier felt like she was hiding something. "Lei, did you have wine? Why are
    you rambling?" Xavier took a step forward and held Leia''s hand, looking concerned. "Should I take you
    somewhere to rest? You don''t seem well." "No, you can save that for yourself. If I don''t seem well, it''s
    because of your witch. I didn''t p her enough. Let me p her, then I''ll be fine." Leia tried to turn the

    conversation back to Shirley, and hoped the surgery would end soon because she couldn''t deflect for
    much longer.
    "Ms. Osborne, go ahead and p me if you want. I won''tin this time. " Shirley stepped forward
    and smoothly wedged herself between Xavier and Leia. Her eyes were watery, and she looked pitiful. "I
    just don''t want you to be mad at Xavier. He''s been thinking about you all this time, and all he cares
    about is you. I hope you don''t misunderstand him." "Oh, great. She''s started another performance."
    Leia rolled her eyes in disgust, then sneered, "You did so many things to ruin the rtionship between
    Xavier and me, but let me be frank with you-you don''t have to do anything because I''ve already fallen
    out with him... I promised you before that I would make Xavier loyal to you if you gave up your eyes to
    Ren, but you said that you wanted your eyes more than Xavier. Clearly, you don''t love Xavier that
    much, so stop pretending that you care so much about him.
    "Do I have to sacrifice myself if I love him? Did you do the same since you love him? I know for a fact
    that you didn''t, and to make things worse, you always behaved arrogantly and tortured Xavier. I never
    saw you be nice to him. If I were Xavier, I would have ignored you ages ago. I don''t know how you
    bewitched him. You''re such a pretentious woman, but he stays by your side relentlessly," Shirley
    argued rudely. Honestly, she couldn''t bear to see Xavier fawning over Leia since he used to dote on her
    like that in the past.
    Looking at Shirley, Leia mocked, "Yes, I was pretentious, but I know my feelings now. I don''t love
    Xavier that much, and I have the guts to admit it. But what about you? You don''t love him, but you
    pretend you do just to satisfy your selfish needs. Do you think you''re nobler than me?" "I... I..." Shirley
    was speechless. It would be a loss if she admitted that she didn''t love Xavier, but on the other hand,
    she didn''t act like she loved him either.
    Leia was certainly one of a kind-she could put aside her emotions, but Shirley couldn''t even face her
    true feelings.
    Xavier had been silent the whole time, but finally raised his hand weakly." Hey, can you guys leave me
    out of your argument? I have feelings too." He felt that he was merely a tool for them. In the end, he
    was the only one who had gotten hurt...
