Leia watched the stars, thrilled that she could stare at them without even lifting her head. It looked so magical!Leia and Xavier laid next to each other and marvelled at the view silently, their shoulders and heads touching. It felt peaceful and soothing."You know, it's been a while since I saw this many stars..." Leia murmured, feeling rather melancholic. "The last time was when Liam, Ren, and I drove to The Golden Hills at Springfield. Everwell Hills, The King of Hills is right opposite The Golden Hills. When night fell, the dark sky was full of bright stars… It was as if I could see the whole galaxy." "I can imagine," Xavier said longingly. He had always wanted to stargaze on a hill because the view would be clearest, but he never could find the time. Now that he heard it from Leia, he felt like he was experiencing it himself."We had such a good time, and we worried about nothing. We would go on road trips when we were free, and we climbed a lot of mountains and went to a l

"I..." Leia bit her lip, feeling conflicted. To be honest, she didn't know how she felt about Xavier now. Maybe some of those feelings were still there, but their brief relationship had been rocky and unpredictable. On the other hand, Santiago's gentle warmth always put her at ease, and she could even imagine having a family with him.If something did happen between her and Santiago during this filming period, she would choose him over Xavier, without a doubt.Xavier was like the sun, passionate and magnetic, but she'd get burned if she got too close. Santiago, meanwhile, gentle and reassuring like the moon. She could imagine being in a deep and lasting relationship with him. Leia took a deep breath. "Xavier, actually, I—" However, before she could say anything, Xavier stopped her with a kiss, as if he knew what she was going to say. "Mmph!" Angry, she tried to push him away, but it was the first time he was kissing her so softly and tenderly. She could feel his humility and nerv

Xavier leaned close to Leia's ear and whispered teasingly, "Are you sure you want me to open the door for them now?""No!" Leia shook her head vigorously and grabbed his arms, stopping him from moving. "I'll kill you if you make a sound!" She'd be doomed if Santiago saw her in bed with Xavier like this. She didn't want things with Santiago to end so soon. She knew it was selfish of her, but she couldn't help it... Humans were greedy by nature."Is there someone in there? We're coming in if not!" Megan knocked more forcefully, and the fragile door looked like it was on the verge of breaking. Leia held her breath and clung to Xavier, shutting her eyes tight and wondering how she had gotten into this mess.Though he was feeling uneasy, Xavier couldn't help but be amused by Leia's guilty expression. Feeling cheeky, he decided to tickle her armpits."Ah! Haha!" Leia burst out laughing, then immediately clamped her mouth shut in horror. However, the damage had already been done as the

After Leia left from the side door of the cottage, she purposely took the long way around the beach before coming to the outdoor barbecue area. Everyone was excited to see her."Leia, there you are. We've been waiting for you!" Luna and Leia had become good friends because their houses were next to each other. Luna had tried to persuade Leia to come to the barbecue earlier, but Leia had refused, so she was happy to see her now."Hi! Yeah, I figured everyone would think I'm pretentious if I didn't show up," Leia laughed awkwardly, feeling guilty."Haha! That's right—the more, the merrier. By the way, Mr. Dalton has been roasting chicken wings for you all night because he knows how much you like them," Megan said, sounding slightly jealous as she gestured at the rows of chicken wings on the grill. "Thanks to Mr. Dalton, you get to pick from wings with New Orleans sauce, honey sauce, salt and pepper, and so on... If only we were so lucky!" Leia looked at Santiago, feeling touched. A

Leia held her hand out to Santiago. In her mind, Santiago had always been like an unreachable star in the sky that she could only admire from afar, but after actually spending time with him, she found he was even more bewitching up close. She admired him even more now and fantasized about spending a peaceful life with him, holding hands as they took long walks on the beach.Santiago looked at her hand, and all his unhappiness from earlier instantly faded. However, before Santiago could take her hand, Xavier appeared from behind them and grabbed her hand instead. "What are you both doing here? There's an important session tonight, and everyone is waiting for you," Xavier said, gave Santiago a challenging look, and pulled Leia to the outdoor barbecue area. "Let go of me! I don't want to hold your hand!" Leia yelled and glared at Xavier, furious at him for always ruining her time with Santiago. He always spoiled her efforts to get closer to Santiago, and she was getting very frustra

"Darling, I was charmed by your agility the first time I saw you. My heart beat fast every time I saw your radiance on TV…" Skylar was reading out Leia's letter when everyone looked at Santiago. Santiago was an actor, so he was probably the one Leia saw on TV. At that moment, Santiago's expression was soft, but Xavier's expression had turned murderous. He was clenching his fists, looking like he was seconds away from strangling someone."I want to say that my first crush is you... Skylar. I hope we can get closer to each other in the next few episodes!" After Skylar read out the last few words, he looked flustered. He scratched his head awkwardly and looked at Leia. "Lei, I didn't expect you to be interested in me." Everyone there was staring at Leia in disbelief. In the end, Leia's crush wasn't Xavier or Santiago… but Skylar? They'd barely even spoken![No, she must be fooling us!] [She's just making a scene...][No, I'm all for XavLeia love!][But Leia likes Santiago more...]
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 1424
"Ahem!" Xavier didn't see Skylar as a threat, but got jealous when he saw Leia happily chatting with Skylar. Skylar immediately cleared his throat and said politely, "I'm sorry, Lei, I like someone else. Please pick another person.""It's okay, we're still in the process of choosing the person we like. Your crush can join us for snorkeling, I won't mind," Leia explained with a smile. She found Skylar very cute, so it was easy to flirt with him. Besides, he was the safest bet since it wouldn't complicate things with Santiago and Xavier. "Really? Miss Osborne, you don't mind going snorkeling with my crush and I tomorrow morning?" Skylar looked at Leia and asked innocently"Of course not! I'm a generous person, you know. We'll be a good trio," Leia remarked mischievously. She knew that her statement would make people hate her, but that was just how she was—outspoken and fun-loving."Okay, it's a promise. We'll go snorkeling as a group tomorrow. You'll go, right?" "Don't worry, I'

There was a hazy kind of beauty to the island at dawn the next day. Leia had a habit of going on morning runs, and tended to wake up when everyone was still asleep. She ran around a hill surrounded by the sea for almost two kilometers, feeling good after sweating. She stood at the observation deck on the hillside and stared at the sea as she caught her breath. As she was stretching, Leia suddenly heard a voice behind her."Morning!"Leia turned around in surprise and saw Santiago. "Mr. Dalton? What a coincidence! Did you come for a morning run too?" Leia waved at Santiago. Inexplicably, Santiago's fervent confession last night flashed in her mind, and her cheeks turned red. Leia pursed her lips and looked away, unsure of how to face him."It's no coincidence..." Santiago looked charming with his white shirt, jeans, and messy hair. He rested his hands on the railing and tilted his head to look at Leia, his intense gaze bewitching her. "I learned the other day that you have a habit

Jovan called Stefan to sound the latter out. Anyway, it would be convenient for Stefan to rush over since they were both at the same spot. "I'll be right there," Stefan said. Then, he hung up.For a moment, silence washed over everyone, as if something terrible was about to happen.After taking in the new information, Leia said indignantly, "What's going on? Why does he want to come? Isn't he too shameless? How dare he come?" Although everything wasn't discussed openly, everyone knew why Stefan and Renee broke up all of a sudden, despite how lovey-dovey they were. The reason was that Stefan had cheated on Renee.Even if the adultery was faked, it was still the cause of their breakup. If Stefan were shameful or guilty, he wouldn't have agreed to come. He was going to face Renee there with their friends and family around. Certainly, it was embarrassing. "Hmph! Why not? He impersonated me, seized my business, and snatched away my woman. Plus, he led a steady life, got married
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2422
Jovan's words made the atmosphere quiet and bizarre. "Are you out of your mind, Jovan? It's already very annoying to have someone like you here. Do you have to get another annoying guy?" Leia frowned, crossing her arms. She kept scolding him.Initially, the atmosphere was considered harmonious. It was still considered fine even if there was an annoying person like Jovan. Unexpectedly, he wanted to call another, more terrible person to come here. Things would certainly go wrong. "Ms. Osborne, you're famous for talking harshly, too. You're just like me. I love it." However, Jovan was not mad at all. He grinned while waiting for Stefan to answer the call. Generally, Stefan would not answer Jovan's call. Surprisingly, he picked it up that time."What's the matter?" Jovan purposely put it on speaker mode. Stefan sounded aloof and emotionless.Jovan sounded wicked as he calmly asked Stefan, "Do you want to join a gathering, Stefan?""I'm going to hang up if you don't say anythi

In the past, Jovan had always regarded Stefan as a coward. Stefan couldn't forget about Renee, but he kept pushing Renee to another man. It seemed like Justin was more responsible, considerate, and gentle. Of course, Renee would lead a very happy, steady, and comfortable life with such a man. At the very least, Jovan felt that he could not be that meticulous and considerate. He would only drive Renee mad just to get her attention. "Hmph! Are you trying to humiliate me or yourself?" Justin didn't find that a compliment. Instead, it sounded like smockery. Jovan made it sound like Justin was a nice guy, but would not be picked by Renee. Usually, people like that had to suffer and would not end up well."I'm praising you." Jovan was helpless because of his reputation as the villain. Although he had said a lot of annoying things, he did want to compliment Justin. His love was probably as deep as Justin's, but his and Stefan's ways of loving Renee were much inferior to Justin's.

"That's unnecessary." Justin stood in front of Renee, his face cold. He said firmly, "She's unwell and can't have wine." "Is she unwell? I didn't see that." Jovan sized Renee up before he sized Justin up. Then, he sneered, "And who are you to her? You can't stop her from having wine.""It's none of your business who I am to her. I said she can't have wine." Justin always kept peace with others, but at that moment, he was dominant. He didn't always want to control Renee, but she had drunk a lot of wine that day. It might have hurt her belly. Hence, he felt it better for her to abstain from wine lately. However, Jovan was unaware of that affair. He simply found Justin purposely showing his ownership over Renee, which disgusted him."Waiter, get her a glass of milk. She only wants that," Justin instructed a waiter, showing his consideration for Renee. "It's okay. I can have a little wine. Plus, I'm rather good at drinking. It's not easy for everyone to get together tonight. I do

They danced for around ten minutes. Renee danced to the song heartily. Her initial gloomy mood also improved.Renee drank some water and took a few deep breaths. Then, she sincerely praised Leia, "Alright. Your welcome ceremony is bizarre, but it helped relieve my stress. I like it very much!"She could tell that Leia had painstakingly prepared that gift for her. After all, it was not easy to ask the Zambawi people from primitive tribes to sing an English song. "I'm glad you like it. I did this because I wanted you to relax and stop taking things seriously. You need to stop being so hard on yourself and get rid of all the pressure!" Leia said honestly. The Zambawi hand-drum dance came with the charms of a primitive dance. Its goal was to set people free. Of course, it was suitable for Renee to relieve her stress."Yeah, your stress is relieved. From now on, you'll start afresh. This is for you. I'm sure it'll be one of your happy memories." Liam handed the previous Polaroid to

"This is your welcome ceremony. This hand-drum dance is to help eliminate bad luck." Leia held Renee's arm, satisfied with her arrangement. She said happily, "Listen to their song! It's a great song!""Is there a song?" Renee frowned; she felt that Leia was always doing bizarre things. She wondered how Leia could come up with such a preposterous welcome ceremony."Mm, listen carefully! It's English. You can understand it." At that point, Leia said to the Zambawi people, "Put on your microphone. And sing louder."The Zambawi people gave their cooperation. They used their typical Zambawi singing to sing the English song. While listening to the song, Renee found it very familiar. "The flowers will bloom in spring, and the birds are free. I'm still waiting, waiting for my love to come back. Hurry home!""Isn't that Spring Flowers by Curtis Harrett?" Renee finally recalled what song it was. It was a song with a happy beat. It could make people happy. The Zambawi people made th

"I don't know, either. All I ever remember from when I was young is that I led a very painful life. I once tried my best to make the Garcia family accept me. I did all the dirty and tiring jobs. I went out to work at an early age to get money for them. I also did all the house chores. "But my foster parents were never nice to me. They would always beat me up or scold me. My elder foster brother also saw me as an eyesore. He always tried to get me killed…" Quinton calmly described his past. He no longer seemed to be in pain. All that was left in him was numbness, as if he were talking about someone else.However, Renee was always in pain whenever she heard him talk about his past. She felt like she had returned to his past with him and experienced those painful things. It was normal for her to feel that way because they were twins. A lot of their thoughts and feelings were synchronized. "I suddenly recalled that I would inexplicably become gloomy many times when I was young. I

"I'm sorry." When Renee heard that from Quinton, she realized the conflict between him and Stefan had yet to be resolved. It was temporarily put aside because of her. She occasionally saw him and Stefan talk to each other and drink together, but they merely put on a show to ease her mind. Their hatred for each other hadn't been eliminated. Instead, it was growing secretly. If Renee were Quinton, she might never forgive the person who had snatched away her beloved and seized her identity. That person even ruined her face."Why did you say sorry to me? It's the resentment between him and me. It has nothing to do with you. Plus, I didn't know he was my brother-in-law then. If I knew, I wouldn't have fought him." When Quinton recalled those affairs, he realized that people were nothing but the sport of fate. If there had been no resentment between him and Stefan, Renee might not have broken up with Stefan. Their families might even get closer. "Stop bringing up the past. It's
The Untouchable Ex-Wife Chapter 2415
During these days, Renee was under pressure because of her affairs. She had no chance to ask Quinton about it. Now, the long flight gave them a chance to have a deep conversation. They could talk about their woes and seek consolation."Me?" Quinton lowered his head and shook his head helplessly. "I'm still the same old me. Nothing is troubling me. I've been busy with Carmine Pawnshop. I have no time to think about other stuff.""You have no time?" Renee touched her chin and smiled naughtily. "Then, you must have been dwelling on other stuff. Let me guess… Is it the thing between you and Joanne?" "Stop asking so much." Quinton did not deny it but refused to talk much about that. "It looks like I made the right guess. You fell out with Joanne, didn't you?" Renee knew Quinton well. Generally, his work would not affect his mood. The only person who could affect his mood was Joanne, who shared a complicated relationship with him. Before Renee left Beach City, she had created a l
