Chapter 949: So Obedient~
CHAPTER 949: CHAPTER 949: SO OBEDIENT~
He said that President Stone’s issue was almost resolved, and the old man wasn’t a problem either...
Leah Thorne lowered her lashes. Madame Goldie once said that men are made to conquer the world, while women are made to conquer men. In this revenge, she ultimately has to use him as a blade to hurt all his loved ones.
Perhaps out of guilt, Leah felt she should treat him a little better.
"I know." Leah lifted her small hands to his handsome face and then gently kissed his thin lips.
Justin Xavier’s large hand clasped her slender waist and fell back, both of them tumbling into the soft big bed. Leah lay obediently and softly on his firm chest, kissing him with a mix of shyness and initiative.
She didn’t know how long it had been when a "knock knock" sound came from outside the door.
Leah’s lashes trembled, and she ended the kiss. She didn’t know how long they’d been kissing, her lips and tongue were numb.
"Sir, dinner is ready." The maid said from outside the door.
Justin Xavier’s long, narrow eyes were a deep red, and he raised his hand to cover them, his voice hoarse, "Got it."
The maid outside the door wisely left.
Leah moved, wanting to get down, "Let’s go have dinner."
Justin Xavier still domineeringly restrained her, not letting her go, "How am I supposed to go down like this, you think a kiss is enough to brush me off?"
"... I’m afraid you’ll get hungry."
"Have you eaten?"
Leah shook her head, "No, I was waiting for you to come back to eat together~"
Her gentle words gave Justin Xavier a sense of having a beauty hidden in a golden house. He reached out and pinched her soft alluring cheek, "Good girl."
While speaking, he held her small hand...
Leah quickly resisted, "No, my hand is still sore~"
Her innocent alluring black eyes looked at him, lightly biting her red lips, gently acting coy and coquettish.
Justin Xavier felt his soul was about to be hooked away by her, but he indulged in his current infatuation. He originally liked her youthful beauty and enchanting figure, these were what he supposed to enjoy.
"Why don’t we... try the little thing under the pillow?" Justin Xavier raised an eyebrow and asked.
Alright, Leah accepted the threat, her small hand softened, no longer resisting.
...
The two of them messed around for a long time, Justin Xavier was like a wild horse off the bridle, endlessly entangling Leah.
The maid reheated the now cold dishes, Leah went to the kitchen to help with the bowls and chopsticks.
At this time, a melodious phone ringtone sounded, Justin Xavier got a call.
It was President Stone calling.
This call was expected, Justin Xavier walked to the side to answer.
President Stone’s tearful plea quickly came, "Mr. Xavier, it’s all my fault, please forgive me, let me off this time. I played too big this time, and I’m almost ruined by you."
Justin Xavier stood tall and handsome in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, one hand in his pants pocket, the other holding the phone, a cold, indifferent arc curling his thin lips, "I don’t have time to listen to your nonsense. I’ll give you two minutes, tell me something I want to hear."
On the other end, President Stone stiffened. What he wanted to hear... was probably about Leah entering his room.
"Mr. Xavier, the bowls and chopsticks are ready, let’s have dinner~" At this moment Leah came over.
Justin Xavier slightly turned his body, his cold black eyes fell on Leah.
Seeing him on the phone, Leah turned to leave.
Justin Xavier watched her departure, didn’t make a sound, but moved his fingers to turn on the speakerphone, President Stone’s voice immediately reached her ears clearly.
"Mr. Xavier, I’ll speak, I’ll say everything. That night Leah entered my room to inquire about the past between the Thorne and Xavier families, about Leah’s mom and your father, Hugh Xavier."
Leah halted her steps ahead, frozen on the spot, she quickly turned around.
She met Justin Xavier’s black eyes. Now, Justin Xavier was looking at her, his eyes as deep as ink, watching her without moving, making one’s heart feel fear.
"Oh, really?" He said, looking at Leah but speaking to President Stone, "Since she wants to know about that past, why don’t you tell her now? Just as well, I would like to hear it too."
"Mr. Xavier, I had lustful intentions at the time, so I wanted to lure Leah. Therefore, I... I deceived Leah, I intentionally told Leah that her mom didn’t seduce your father Hugh Xavier, there was another underlying story, and she fell for it."
"Mr. Xavier, there’s nothing much to say about the past. It’s just Leah’s mom seduced your father. They were caught by Quinn Thorne and your mother while they were opening a room outside, and then the tragedy between the two families began."
"Mr. Xavier, I’ve said everything, please spare my worthless life..."
Leah couldn’t hear what else President Stone said afterwards, as Justin Xavier directly hung up the call.
Justin Xavier put away his phone, stretched his long legs and walked over, looking at Leah. Leah’s small face as big as a palm lost all its color in an instant, becoming extremely pale.
He reached out and held Leah’s small hand, her hand was cold, like ice.
"Is it cold?" He rubbed her small hand, trying to transfer his body warmth to her, "If you want to know something, just tell me directly. No matter what it is, as long as you have doubts in your heart, I will help you investigate it. In the future, don’t cause trouble, don’t run out to make trouble for me, understand?"
Leah couldn’t say a single word, looking at Justin Xavier in front of her, feeling cold all over. She had been running around for so long, and he easily found out about it. She had known he was a dangerous man, but she didn’t expect him to be so deeply scheming and terrifyingly composed.
Now he was rubbing her small hand, indulging to the extreme, yet she couldn’t feel a bit of warmth.
The past was like a thorn between them, not mentioning it didn’t mean it didn’t exist.
She knew he hated the Thorne family and hated her.
"Do you think what President Stone just said is true?" Leah asked.
"What do you mean?" Justin Xavier slightly lifted his handsome eyelids to look at her, "What do you think is true? Your mom didn’t seduce my father is true, my mother’s legs weren’t crippled because of you is true, and all these years the Xavier family wasn’t put in hell by your Thorne family is true?"
Leah knew, she just knew he wouldn’t believe it.
He believed from his bones that everything was done by the Thorne family.
"I don’t know why President Stone suddenly changed his statement, but I believe my mom, my mom didn’t... ah!"
Before Leah could finish her words, she cried out in pain, because Justin Xavier suddenly gripped her wrist tightly.
Leah felt like her bones were about to be crushed by his grip.
Justin Xavier looked at her, expressionless, even his voice was calm without the slightest fluctuation, "Hungry? Let’s go eat dinner."
