Filed to story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
You’re always behaving like a tomboy, but now, you’re being so polite. I’m not used to it!”
She didn’t open her eyes, but gently pinched his arm. “Don’t take my photos secretly… You can… do it openly.”
Xavier felt his face grow hot and he looked away in embarrassment. “Just forget about that.
Pretend that you saw nothing.”
Leia murmured cheekily, “Okay, my bedtime dessert.”
Xavier was speechless.
After ten minutes, the cab stopped at the large Osborne Mansion.
Leia did not want this moment to end. After she got out of the car, she found it difficult to say goodbye. “Umm… Do you want to come in?”
“No, it’s late. It won’t look good.”
“I’m not afraid, so you don’t have to be afraid either.”
“Er…”
“Just stop talking. Get out of the car.” Leia could not keep up her ladylike front any longer, and dragged him out of the car. “It’s fine if you don’t want to come in, but you have to kiss me. Kiss me until I’m satisfied, then I’ll let you go.”
She stood on tiptoe and grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling him to her and kissing him deeply.
“Mmph-!” Xavier would never have guessed that the previously shy and timid woman would suddenly become so passionate now. His body immediately tensed, and he didn’t dare to move.
Hugging his neck, Leia closed her eyes tightly as she enthusiastically kissed the man before her, the alcohol in her body spurring her on. She had been unsure about Xavier’s feelings for her in the past, but she was confident now after seeing those photographs today.
“Xavier, just admit it-you like me. You don’t have to pretend.”
She grasped the back of his head, demanding, “Tell me the truth!”
Even though Xavier had always been able to handle the countless women who threw themselves at him, Leia was the first person who was so brave and enthusiastic.
It was hard for him not to be moved…
“Woman, are you a woodpecker? Where did you learn how to kiss? You’re terrible at it!” He said hoarsely as he broke off the kiss, and then gently held her face in his hands, and leaned down. His eyes darkened with longing as he murmured, “This… is what we call kissing.”
With this, Leia, the novice, entered a new world under the guidance of the extremely experienced Xavier. For the first time, she learned that kissing was not merely about the collision of teeth and lips, and it was practically an art form.
She felt as if she was floating, and exhilaration surged through her veins.
They were kissing fervently and for so long, that soon, an endless stream of coughing erupted from someone standing nearby.
“Who is it? Who dares to rain on my parade? Can’t you see that we’re kissing?” Leia snarled furiously as she reluctantly let go of a dazed Xavier. She turned to see a dark figure under the shade of a tree, and instantly, her eyes lit up. She ran over to the figure happily.
“Ah! You… You heartless man! You’re finally back!”
Her eyes became watery as she hugged the man and punched his broad back. “What are you doing back? Don’t you know how much I missed you and worried about you? You’re so heartless…”
“Did you miss me? I don’t think so. You kissed that man until you forgot yourself just now.”
He smiled gently and stroked her head affectionately.
Xavier stood there with a tight frown, and glared at the two people hugging each other. He looked like he was fighting the urge to go over and strangle the unknown man.
“Leia, I just taught you my special skill, but you threw yourself into another man’s arms. You don’t respect your teacher at all.” Xavier pretended to not care as he teased her, but he was actually very jealous.
“Xavier?” After the man saw Xavier, he scowled.
“Liam, did… didn’t you go traveling around the world? Why did you come back all of a sudden?” After Xavier saw the man’s face, he immediately became dispirited.
Both Liam and Xavier shared similar backgrounds and characters, but one of them was
Halston’s buddy while the other was Flossie’s loyal friend. Of course, they had long fallen out with each other.
If Xavier and Liam ever bumped into each other in public, they’d usually be at each other’s throats.
Liam was wearing casual clothes at the moment, and his skin was tanned. He even had a brown cowboy hat on his head, complimenting his carefree look. He narrowed his eyes, sizing Xavier up before he stared at Leia solemnly. “I think you should see an eye specialist, sister dearest. Do you realise that man over there is the infamous playboy of Beach City who’s fooled around with countless women?
Even if you can’t marry yourself off, you don’t have to lower your standards this much.”
“No, you don’t understand!” Leia stomped her feet and retorted angrily, “Being a playboy is just a pretence, he’s actually a loyal man! I know we were prejudiced against him earlier because of Flossie, but you can’t say that about him now! I*
“Tsk! Women are bound to side with their men. How long have you been dating him? Are you both planning to elope?”
“Ugh, you wouldn’t understand. What we have is true love, so you can’t make things difficult for him!” Leia stood before Xavier, fearing that her cunning brother would hurt her beloved man.
“True love?” Liam raised his brows with a scornful expression. He looked over Leia’s head and said to Xavier,” And what do you have to say about this? Are you planning to hide behind my sister’s skirts while she defends you?”
Xavier stated coldly, “I have nothing to say. You’re right-l’m just an infamous playboy in
Beach City. What could I possibly know about true love?”
“What did you say?” A dangerous gleam appeared in Liam’s eyes. Although he loved to bully Leia, he adored her very much. He could never bear to see her suffer, and if anyone dared to bully her, he would gladly teach that person a lesson. He would never let men approach Leia easily, which was the reason why Leia had been single for more than twenty years. Hence, he was furious when he heard someone his sister loved say such things. He was controlling his urge to punch Xavier.
“Didn’t I make myself clear? I’m just a playboy who lives in the moment. There’s no true love between us. I’m just fooling around with your sister.” Xavier remarked casually as he stuffed his hands inside his pockets. He smirked at Liam, giving off the aura of a playboy who never gave his heart up to anyone.
“You’re asking for it!” Liam snarled as he lunged forward and punched Xavier’s nose.
“Ah!” Leia screamed and pushed Liam away. “Are you out of your mind?! Why did you punch his nose? Don’t you know that’s my favourite feature of his? What if you ruin it?”
While feeling sorry for Xavier and checking if his nose was okay, she sobbed and apologised, “I’m sorry, Liam has a bad temper like me. He never thinks before he acts, and only Flossie can handle him. Please don’t hold a grudge against him.
After all, he’s your future brother-in-law.”
Consequently, both Xavier and Liam were at a loss for words.
Leia used a handkerchief to wipe away the blood on Xavier’s face. When she saw that his nose was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank God your nose is okay. Don’t worry, I still love you.”
Liam smacked his forehead with an exasperated groan.” Woman, can you have some dignity? I thought I was a kissass, but you’re worse than me. What’s wrong with this family?
At last, Leia let Xavier go. If he stayed any longer, he and Liam might get into a fight, and then she would be forced to break up with him.
“You heartless man! You travelled the world for such a long time. Did you have any unforgettable experiences? And the most important thing is… Did you come home with a gift for me?” Leia asked eagerly as she helped Liam carry his luggage into the house.
“The only gift I have for you is a slap! Do you want that? I need to knock some sense into a lovestruck fool like you!” Feeling sad that she had failed to live up to his expectations, he patted her cheeks and asked slowly, “ Didn’t you suffer another heartbreak recently? Why did you jump into another abyss after you just crawled out of one?”
Liam’s carelessness had led to the failed relationship between Leia and William in the past.
If he had been more strict, his foolish sister wouldn’t have been tricked. On the other hand,
Xavier was an experienced and slick man-he was much more horrible than William. Even
