NovelEnglishChapter 520
Olivia glanced at him without saying a word and grabbed another drink.
‘Ex-husband?”
She snorted in her heart, “Was that even a divorce?
‘More like being widowed.’
Seeing how she finished one glass after another, Xavier reached out to stop her. “Pheebs, if you don’t
want to say it, then I won’t ask any more questions. Stop drinking like this. I don’t mean to investigate
your past. I just wanted to know you a little more.”
Olivia swung his hand off. “There’s nothing much to know about.”
That being said, she went to grab another glass.
Xavier snatched the glass away, grabbed her hand, and pulled her towards him.
“Pheebs, I know that he hurt you a lot. That’s why you’re acting like this now. But why won’t you give
me even the slightest chance?”
The two coincidentally caught each other’s gaze, and his narrow eyes stared at her scorchingly.

“I don’t want to leave any regrets behind.”
‘Regrets?’
Olivia pushed him away and could not help but chuckle. “Won’t you regret choosing me? Life is full of
regrets, no matter what you choose…”
“No.” Xavier looked at her sternly. “Pheebs, no matter what happens in the future, I will never regret
choosing you.”
Hearing this, Olivia was taken aback and went into a daze.
She was contradicting herself at that moment.
John’s entanglement and Ken’s determination seemed to be forcing her to make a choice.
She wanted to seek closure for her past, but at the same time, she was unwilling to give up her
current stable life with Lyla.
Which was why, no matter what she chose, there would definitely be regrets.
“If… ” Olivia grabbed Xavier’s collar and asked firmly, “you had two options in life, one to follow
your heart but risk some parts of yourself, and another to go for stability and happiness, which one
would you choose?”
Xavier held her shoulders. “Pheebs, you’re drunk.”
“Answer me!”
“Pheebs…”
Olivia shook his body and stared at him while repeating her words. “Answer me!”
Seeing how stubborn she was, Xavier sighed helplessly. “If I were to choose, I would take the former.”
“Why? Isn’t it good to be stable?”
“It’s good, but you will think about the other option for the rest of your life, and you won’t be able to get
over it.”
Olivia let go of him and sneered. “Won’t you regret following your heart?”
“Nope.”
Olivia was drunk and started to tremble. Xavier quickly supported her body and said in a low voice, “At
most, I would feel like life wasn’t perfect, but I wouldn’t regret it.”
“You won’t regret it?”
Olivia mumbled to herself and finished the drink in front of her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had no idea how many glasses she had drunk. She finally stopped after passing out.
“Pheebs?”
Xavier looked at the woman in his arms and called her name a few times but did not get any response.
‘Guess she’s asleep.’
‘Why drink so much when you can’t handle it?’
The bar was noisy, so he carried her bridal style, planning to send her home.
Just as he stepped out of the bar, someone blocked his way.
“Put her down.”
Xavier glanced at the approaching man and frowned. “Who are you?”
“I said, put her down!”
Xavier was slightly pissed and looked at him for a quick moment. “I believe I met you at the gala
before.”
John ignored him with a dark expression. He wanted to snatch the woman away, but Xavier dodged
him.
“Are you Pheebs’s ex-husband?”
“None of your business.”
“Hmm.” Xavier chuckled coldly. “I guess I’m right. Sadly, Pheebs doesn’t even want to talk about you. If
she sees you when she wakes up, she will probably hate me, and I don’t want her to do that.”
