Chapter 1836
Leia was silent for a while, then decided to be honest with herself and nodded.
"Yeah, I hate that you can't make up your mind.
I don't care what others think—to me, love is exclusive.
If we're a couple, your body and mind should only belong to me!" She knew that Xavier was physically loyal to her when they
were a couple, but she didn't know if his heart had been hers entirely.
"Do you remember the one question I asked you repeatedly before we became a couple?" Leia watched Xavier, her eyes watery.
"I asked you if you were sure that you had moved on completely and if you truly only cared about me.
You hesitated at that moment, and that was when I knew.
Maybe that was the beginning of this tragedy." Back then, she had been infatuated with Xavier's good looks and just wanted to
have some fun.
If things went wrong, they could break up and go their separate ways.
Unexpectedly, her spontaneous fling turned into infatuation, and it hurt more than when she broke up with her scumbag first love.
She had lost control of the situation.
"T admit that I was hesitant in the past.
I wasn't sure about many things, but now, I know what I want." Xavier clenched his fists and said to Leia firmly, "Since you want
to see me make up my mind, I'll grant your wish." "What do you mean?" Leia leaned back against the chair and stared at him in
confusion.
Xavier remained silent as he got to his feet and went onstage.
His sudden appearance on the stage made the audience start whispering.
"Xavier?" When Shirley was onstage, she had noticed Xavier and Leia whispering to each other quite intimately below the stage.
Now that he was here, she felt like something was off.
"Is there something you want to say?" Shirley anxiously asked Xavier.
"Yes, there is." Xavier grabbed Shirley's microphone.
"It's a personal affair." The emcee panicked when he saw Xavier grab the microphone, and stammered, "Mr.
Stuart, you're the producer of The Heart of the Grassland.
Do you have a surprise announcement for us?" Xavier ignored the emcee and faced the audience.
"Today is a special day.
It's the startup ceremony for The Heart of the Grassland...
and the anniversary of my wedding proposal." The audience burst into an uproar.
"A proposal? Is Mr.
Stuart going to propose to Shirley? That's too romantic!" "Ah, I was right! Mr.
Stuart and Shirley are still in love with each other.
He invested in such a meaningful movie.
I'm sure this is his proposal gift to Shirley." "Wow, this isn't the startup ceremony for The Heart of the Grassland anymore— it's
the heartfelt proposal Mr.
Stuart prepared for Shirley.
We're in for a great show!" Shirley felt nervous hearing everyone's comments, and tilted her head at Xavier.
"Xavier, are you going to propose to me? I'm not ready yet.
Why don't you...
do it another day?" Leia also felt that Xavier was going to propose to Shirley, and stiffly stood up.
