The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Leia felt like a clown performing for everyone's entertainment. Humiliated and awkward, she kept her head lowered as she walked toward the entrance of the hall.

However, Xavier kept looking for her onstage. Finally, he shouted, "Leia!"

Immediately, everyone turned to look at Leia.

Leia was struck dumb. She could neither leave nor turn around, and cursed inwardly. 1

"A wedding proposal is a very important affair to me-it means that I'll give up every other woman and focus on only one. I don't know if I can be loyal forever, but I still want to try. So... can you please not go?" Xavier said sincerely as he stared at Leia's back.

Leia's cheeks burned and she covered her face in embarrassment. That jerk! He could have just proposed to Shirley, but he insisted on humiliating Leia like this. Did he think she was a pushover?NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

When Leia didn't move, Xavier became more confident. He smoothed his tie and straightened, then got off the stage.

"Xavier!" Shirley knew what was going to happen, and quickly grabbed Xavier's hand. "Do you know the meaning of a proposal to a woman? It won't be that easy to retreat if you ΝΟ take that step. Do you think you've experienced everything you wanted to? Are you confident you can be loyal to one woman? If you think you'll regret this in the future and want to give up, you'll hurt her twice as much when it actually happens. Have you ever thought about the consequences of this?"

Shirley's words made Xavier stop. He was used to being carefree, and he had never stayed for anyone. In the past, he had dated many women sincerely, but once their novelty wore off, he would get bored and break up with the woman. However, he liked to ve think he was generovy with all his partners-he would either give them houses or cars when he broke up with them, and the relationship would end amicably. All his exes praised him and saw him as a Prince Charming who had satisfied all their needs. Xavier had never wanted to settle down, even when he had been in love with Shirley, who he had sacrificed the most for. He loved his freedom too much, and saw marriage as shackles he would be stupid to get himself into. However, to his surprise, he was thinking of marriage now.

"Listen to your heart, Xavier. Do you want to get married or are you merely acting out of spite? Are you just trying to prove something? You really have to think this through for youn sake!", St and her er sake!" Shirley knew that Xavier had never liked the idea of marriage, and even feared it. If he hadn't, Shirley wouldn't have taken a risk by seeking support from Xavier's father instead back then. She knew that Xavier's deepest fear was the responsibilities involved in a marriage, so she kept pressing him about it. As long as Xavier wasn't married, she had a chance of getting back together with him.
