Shadows of Destiny: A Tale of Liberation

Chapter 1170

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 Ren, 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 Ren 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?
