Chapter 1247
Xavier eagerly opened the door to his office, and saw Leia standing in front of
the French windows. He quickly walked up to her and hugged her from behind,
kissing her neck as he murmured elatedly, “My darling, you finally came to see
me. You want to tell everyone about our relationship now, right?”
When they started dating, their behavior changed drastically. In the past, Leia
had been the clingy one, while Xavier was always uncommitted and vague. He
had always been reluctant to officially make her his girlfriend, but now, he was
the one who wanted to announce it to the world. He had become the clingy one
in the relationship, and always wanted to hug and kiss her. However, Leia was
concerned about her work, and requested a secret relationship instead.
“I don’t understand why we can’t expose our relationship. You’re not a celebrity,
so it won’t affect your career, right?” He complained while hugging her.
“I’m not a celebrity, but your ex-girlfriend is. You don’t know how horrible her
fans are. If we expose our relationship now. I’ll become the homewrecker that
ruined your relationship with her. They’ll give me a hard time, and my career has
just begun, so I don’t want to risk it,” Leia
explained rationally. Xavier had doted on Shirley for the past few years, so
whenever any female celebrities or streamers flirted with him, Shirley’s fans
would attack them online until they suffered a social death.
Leia had not achieved much in the past, but recently, she had established a
small media company specializing in brand marketing. If her reputation was
ruined, she would be doomed.
Xavier insisted stubbornly, ’So? I can support you even if your career is ruined.
You could also come work here, and I’ll turn you into a star. You’ll get a lot of
fans by then and they can fight for you. You don’t have to be scared anymore.”
“Do you want another case like Shirley?” Leia scoffed. “No, thank you. I can
fend for myself.”
“Heh, I do love your independence. Come here, love… Let me kiss you.”
Xavier’s heart flooded with affection for the woman in front of him, and he lifted
her chin to kiss her.
To his confusion, Leia blocked him awkwardly and pointed at the back.” Umm…
Someone’s here.”
Renee had just come back from the washroom, and had been forced to watch
their PDA. Nonetheless, she was sincerely happy for Leia. There had been
many obstacles in Xavier and Leia’s path, but they had finally become a couple.
“Ugh, I saw nothing. I can even leave if you guys want, so please carry on.”
