Shadows of Destiny: A Tale of Liberation

Chapter 881

“Bro, why are you so nervous?”

Xavier’s lips curled into a mischievous smile. He remained as unpredictable as ever. “You’re the one who invited me

here, so shouldn’t you at least show some confidence?”

The two men were locked in an invisible battle. The atmosphere became weirdly tense.

“Can you two… act normally?”

Renee gulped and suggested cautiously.

Xavier’s beautiful eyes immediately curled into crescent moons as he beamed at Stefan. He patted Stefan’s

shoulder and said, “Haha, just kidding. Look how scared Stefan is. He’s worried that his wife would run away with

someone else…”

“Alright, I’ll stop teasing you. This island is beautiful! I want to look around!”

He ran a few steps, then suddenly stopped and came back because he remembered something. He told Stefan,

“Umm… Miss Osborne has something important to say to you, Stef. Be mentally prepared, okay? Make sure you

tighten your belt.”

“Tighten my belt?!”

Renee was confused. “What the hell? Xavier, explain yourself…”

However, Xavier had already skipped away.

All this while, Leia had been pouting at the dock. She was unwilling to take a single step forward. She even had the

urge to turn around and leave.

“Why is she just standing there?”

Stefan wondered coldly.

He did not know much about Leia Osborne. He vaguely remembered hearing someone mention that she was once

the biggest fan of him and Renee, but when he divorced Renee, she turned into his biggest hater.

Wait… it was Xavier who told him that.

Because Xavier was a behemoth in the Aeos entertainment industry and knew a lot of paparazzi and media, he

once came across Leia’s gossip posts which recorded her process of turning from a fan into a hater in detail.

Therefore, it made sense that Leia would… dislike him.

“It’s okay. She might find it hard to accept now, but I’ll explain it to her. You can go keep Xavier company.”

Renee knew her good friend very well. She could understand Leia reacting badly to her decision.

“Okay. I’m counting on you, honey. These two people are so much hassle to deal with. We must succeed, or I’d feel

uneasy.”

Stefan cuddled with Renee for a bit before parting with her reluctantly.

Seeing this, Leia became even more infuriated. She gritted her teeth and tried to leave.

Unfortunately, the speedboat had already departed.

She could only turn her back on Renee with a frown. She was furious.

“Leia, oh Leia, please don’t be mad!”

Renee hugged Leia from behind and said coquettishly, “I know, it’s my fault. Will you forgive me? You’re the best…”

“Save it!”

Leia pouted. She originally wanted to keep giving Renee the cold shoulder, but she relented only after a few

minutes. She turned around, held Renee’s beautiful face in her hands, and said angrily, “You better have a good

explanation for this, or I’ll… I’ll jump into the sea and make you live out the rest of your life in regret!”
