"I... I'm sorry.’ Xavier was stunned, and spoke like a child who had made a mistake. "My employees can handle

being rebuked. They won't change if I don't scold them, so I have to do this"

"Is that really the reason? You're overly violent, so they don't dare to resist." Leia glared at him as she touched her

swollen forehead, gritting her teeth in pain. "Did I wrong you? Why am I so unlucky whenever I meet you?"

"Come here, let me take a look." Xavier pulled her hand away. When he saw a slight scratch on her forehead, he

felt very sorry for her. He blew at the wound gently and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead.

"Wait. I have ointment and a plaster here. Let me tend to it." He then led her to the sofa and opened his drawer to

Xavier raised his head slightly, his eyes watering. "It hurts so bad!" Xavier did not even dare to swallow. "I think it's

"Your chin... is dislocated?"

"Yes, and my face is going to be ruined. Leia, you're so cruel. You just wanted to ruin my face since you can't win

me over, rv

Leia was speechless. 'Clearly, he's not dying, otherwise he wouldn't joke around like this.'

"Okay then, let me fix it for you." While talking, she cracked her knuckles and approached him.

"You want to fix it?" Xavier swallowed. "We're separated, but you don't have to ruin my face. My jawline is one of

the best in Beach City, and I'm only second to Stefan. If you ruin it, I...
