Justin Xavier said in a low voice, "I won’t let go, no matter who tells , even if the whole world tells , I won’t let go."
Serena nodded, "Alright, I’ll tell Leah Thorne that you’re her husband."
With that, Serena left.
After Serena left, Hayden Crawford arrived.
Justin Xavier looked up at Hayden Crawford, "Any news on Mort Thorne?"
"Our people are still investigating Mort Thorne’s whereabouts, no information yet, but..."
"But what?"
"However, Mort Thorne is likely still alive, because Tanya Sullivan disappeared with him."
That day Cain Shaw drove back for Leah, then an explosion happened, and Tanya Sullivan vanished right after.
Hayden Crawford looked at Justin Xavier’s silent deanor, stepped forward and patted his shoulder, "This ti your mother caused a huge problem for Mort Thorne. Even if Mort Thorne got lucky and survived, the statent of Cain Shaw being Mort Thorne has brought a storm of bloodshed for Mort Thorne. All of the Shaw family in Starfall City have mobilized, and they won’t rest until they find his remains. Now there’s tension everywhere, even if Mort Thorne survives, it’s uncertain if he can strike back. So... Leah Thorne’s hatred for you is justified."
Justin Xavier was silent for a mont, "Then pull all our people back."
Hayden Crawford thought for a mont, "You an?"
"If Mort Thorne is still alive, he will find a way to contact us first. Leah is his sister, and now he must be more worried about Leah’s safety than anyone. If he doesn’t contact us, it ans he’s dead, or he’s unable to contact us. We shouldn’t cause more trouble for him. The brilliant Mort Thorne of the past was capable of a coback. All we need to do is wait."
Hayden Crawford glanced at Justin Xavier, who was always adept at offense, now learned to wait, "We can wait, but can you?"
Justin Xavier nodded, "Yes, I will definitely wait for Mort Thorne’s return."
...
After Hayden Crawford left, Justin Xavier stood there for a while, wanting to smoke, but he quit after Leah got pregnant.
At that mont, Leah ca over, stopped in front, and looked at him with a puzzled gaze.
Justin Xavier quickly gathered his emotions and approached her with a soft smile, "Why are you looking at like that?"
"Serena said I’m pregnant, and the baby inside is yours, you’re my husband." Leah placed her hand on her small belly.
Justin Xavier knew it; no matter how many tis he said it, it couldn’t match a single word from Serena Sterling!
He acknowledged, "I’ve already told you, you’re my wife, you see, I wasn’t lying."
"But... I have no impression of you at all. How about you take ho and have a look, maybe I’ll rember sothing."
"Sure, let’s go ho." Justin Xavier took her small hand and led her ho.
...
An hour later, the Maybach stopped on the lawn outside the villa, and the two of them arrived ho.
Justin Xavier stood in front of the villa, inputting the fingerprint to open the door, but Leah quietly started to retreat. She suddenly changed her mind; she didn’t want to go ho with him anymore.
She turned and ran.
But she didn’t get far because a large hand covered her small belly. She was embraced from behind, and a voice resonated in her ear, "Trying to run? You’ve co to the door, and you think I’ll let you get away?"
Leah struggled, "I-I suddenly changed my mind, it’s too late today. It’s unsafe for a man and woman to be alone together. How about I co back tomorrow during the day?"
Justin Xavier didn’t listen. He half-pushed, half-carried her into the villa, his thin lips falling on her small earlobe, kissing her, "You’re under three months pregnant, don’t worry, I won’t touch you."
Leah’s whole face flushed red, and she dodged his kisses, pushing him away.
But Justin Xavier released her first. He walked ahead, took a pair of pink slippers from the shoe rack, and slowly squatted down, "Ti to change shoes."
Leah looked down at the man squatting, her eyelashes slightly trembling.
At that mont, her right ankle was wrapped in his palm. Today she wore a pair of flat white sneakers, and he skillfully untied her shoelaces, then took off her shoes, finally placing her small foot into the warm, furry slippers.
After changing her shoes, he changed his own and put an arm around her small shoulder, leading her into the living room.
He turned on the bright wall lights in the living room and spoke softly, "Lie down on the sofa, I’ll cook, don’t wander off, and call if you need anything."
He kissed her forehead and went to the kitchen.
Leah stood there for a mont, staring blankly at the villa, feeling unfamiliar yet oddly familiar.
Looking down at the slippers on her feet, mories of the previous scene flashed through her mind. The wall light in the living room was off, just a yellow light at the entrance, dimly illuminating him as he squatted down to help change her shoes.
There was movent in the kitchen. She walked over quietly, peeking her little head in. In the living room earlier, he had taken off his dark blue coat, now wearing a white thin sweater, he was tall and stood like a pine tree by the counter, washing vegetables.
Leah didn’t know what she was thinking; her heart just ached and ached, feeling sorry for him.
At that mont, Justin Xavier turned and saw her, curling his lips, "What are you standing there for, co over here."
He beckoned to her.
"Oh." Leah nodded and walked over.
When she stood beside him, he extended a long arm, pulling her protectively in front of him. His hands reached over from both sides to wash the vegetables while lazily rubbing his firm chin on her small fragrant shoulder. His voice was truly gentle, pleasant to hear, "Do you know my na?"
Leah shook her head, "I don’t know."
"Justin Xavier, that’s my na, rember it."
Justin Xavier...
Leah repeated the three words in her heart.
Then Justin Xavier leaned over and kissed her cheek.
Why does he like kissing her so much?
Leah quickly nudged his toned waist with her elbow, "What are you doing, always touching and moving around?"
Just as she finished speaking, a low groan of pain ca from behind.
Leah was taken aback, and quickly turned around, "Hey Justin Xavier, I didn’t even use any force. Are you really that fragile?"
She used both small hands to touch his waist.
At that mont, a joyful laugh sounded above her head, "We’re even."
"What?" Leah looked up, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion.
Justin Xavier squinted his eyes, his affectionate brows filled with teasing affection, "I touched you, and now you’ve touched back. Isn’t that even?"
Leah realized her small hands were still on his toned waist, "..."
She realized this man was nothing but a cunning fox.
