Chapter 1826
Renee flinched as if struck, and her heart twisted painfully.
"Why...
are you asking me that?" Renee glared at Shirley, immediately cautious.
She had only told Leia about Stefan cheating on her with Briar.
She didn't want others to learn about such a humiliating affair that could ruin her dignity.
"Ms. Everheart, why are you so nervous? I know that Mr. Hunt is one of those rare good men.
He's rich and handsome, and also very loyal to you," Shirley said meaningfully, and it made Renee wonder if Shirley knew
anything.
When Renee didn't reply, Shirley continued, "But even the perfect partner can make mistakes.
I'm just curious to know if you'd forgive him if you were in this situation.
If you would, then you can't say that Xavier wouldn't forgive me.
There's nothing wrong in seeking forgiveness.
Am I so despicable that all of you will always think the worst of me?" Renee averted her gaze guiltily.
"I... I'm not sure." "What are you not sure about?" Shirley urged.
"I'm not sure if I can forgive him, but for now...
I don't think I could." Renee blinked, clenching her fists tightly.
Shirley noticed Renee's expression and raised an eyebrow.
"It looks like Mr. Hunt has done something unforgivable." "That's none of your business!" Renee looked up sharply.
"I'm waiting for Xavier, not you.
Don't disturb us if you have nothing important to say." "I get it—you hate me." Shirley got to her feet.
"I won't bother you any longer, but just know that my offer remains on the table." "What offer?" Xavier had just finished his
meeting and was striding into the room, and he overheard what Shirley had said.
"Xavier!" Shirley excitedly approached Xavier when she saw him.
" I told Ms. Everheart that I could help mentor this boy if she wants to help him make a debut." She looked eager to please
Xavier, which was very different from the past.
Clearly, she had only learned to cherish him once she had lost him.
Xavier ignored her and walked up to Renee.
"Are you sure you want this guy to join the entertainment circle?" "Why else would I be here?" Renee growled at Xavier, then
looked at Jeffrey with a reassuring smile.
"You've met this guy before, and we even played a game with him.
Don't be afraid—he's not a bad guy.
You'll work for him from now on." "Oh, please don't." Xavier raised his hands and groaned.
"I ama bad guy, and I don't want to tarnish this pure soul." "Oh, stop being so dramatic!" Renee glanced at Shirley.
"Clearly, you've tarnished quite a lot of people." Xavier smiled bitterly.
"That's why I don't want to repeat my mistakes.
You know that this circle is very messy, and people can get corrupted easily.
Are you sure you want to subject him to that?"
