Slap.
Justin Xavier was rcilessly slapped, and his handso face was knocked aside.
The air beca stagnant, leaving only the sound of running water.
At this mont, Leah Thorne reached out and opened the frosted glass door, stepping out directly.
Justin Xavier didn’t move, standing in place, his tongue pushing against his slapped right cheek, he let out a "ha" and surprisingly laughed. Damn, this little wildcat had quite a taste and was fierce!
The only one daring to slap him like this was her!
...
Justin Xavier took a quick shower and ca out, wearing a black silk pajama top, his short cropped hair was wet, making him look young and handso.
Just then, the doorbell rang with a "ding," soone was outside the room.
Leah Thorne walked over to open the door, outside were hotel staff, "Hello, guest, here’s what you ordered."
"Alright, thank you." Leah Thorne took the small bag and closed the door.
Justin Xavier glanced at the small bag in her hand, "What’s in the bag?"
Leah Thorne’s little face was cold and pale, she sat on the sofa, opened the bag, and took out its contents, "Contraceptive pills."
Justin Xavier’s handso face turned entirely black, he strode over, grabbed the box and threw it directly into the trash can, "Not allowed!"
"Give it back!" Leah Thorne quickly ran to the trash can, reaching inside to search.
Justin Xavier’s heroic sword-like eyebrows furrowed, he grabbed her delicate wrist, "Leah Thorne, what are you doing, can you really reach into the trash can?"
He held one of her hands, Leah Thorne imdiately stretched her other hand into the trash can and picked up the box of contraceptive pills.
Justin Xavier let go of her hand.
Leah Thorne opened the box, peeled out two contraceptive pills and put them in her mouth, swallowing them dry, without water.
Justin Xavier watched her, knowing she was a delicate little princess, afraid of pain and bitter tastes, a single pill could take her half a day to swallow. Yet she didn’t even blink as she took two contraceptive pills.
Justin Xavier’s cold black eyes, thick and dangerous like spilled ink, curved his thin lips into a sarcastic arc. He spoke, "Leah Thorne, contraceptive pills are for people who can get pregnant, why do you, soone who can’t conceive, like taking them so much? Do you have a special fondness for them or sothing?"
Leah Thorne pushed him aside, "President Xavier, I know I can’t get pregnant, so there’s no need to keep reminding . I’ve done everything that needs to be done, you’re satisfied, so why does my taking dicine matter to you? From a benefactor’s perspective, isn’t it safer if your mistress takes contraceptive pills after the deed? Is there any mistress more worry-free than for you?"
Justin Xavier was infuriated, he let out a cold laugh, "You’re right, it’s not like you’re a woman ant for marriage, eat whatever pills you want, but..."
Justin Xavier extended his distinct fingers and pinched her small face forcefully, "Look in the mirror and see if you resemble a ntally ill neurotic. I don’t like playing with a lunatic!"
After saying that, Justin Xavier pushed her away and walked out of the presidential suite, slamming the door shut with a loud "bang."
Justin Xavier left.
He finally walked out.
Leah Thorne collapsed in exhaustion onto the sofa, her eyes vacant, and she spaced out for a while.
Soon, she picked up her phone and dialed the number President Stone had given her last ti, again.
She had never abandoned this number, calling it every night, but it was never answered.
She dialed again, the "beep beep" sounds transmitted over, still no answer.
Disappointnt flickered across Leah Thorne’s face, she wanted to hang up.
But just as her fingertips touched the button, the call suddenly got answered...
...
Late at night, Justin Xavier drove back to the company, arriving at the CEO’s office.
He threw his overcoat onto the sofa heavily, his hands on his waist as he took deep breaths.
The private secretary hurried over and saw this scene upon entering, his boss still in pajamas, wearing hotel slippers, standing there in great anger, looking fierce yet sohow... adorable, like a husband who had fought with his wife and stord out.
"CEO, why did you co back to the office so late, was it that... Miss Thorne kicked you out of the room..."
Before the secretary could finish speaking, Justin Xavier turned sideways, with a cold, displeased look directed at him.
Terrified, the private secretary stiffened his neck and quickly fell silent.
Justin Xavier walked to his office chair and sat down, indifferently parted his thin lips, "Help dial a psychologist’s number, I need to consult about sothing."
The private secretary froze, "CEO, are you dialing... Mrs. Crawford’s number? Now Mrs. Crawford is a top global dical professor, after all you’re acquaintances..."
Mrs. Crawford, Serena Sterling, aren’t they acquaintances?
Justin Xavier paused, then took out his phone himself, and dialed the number of his good brother Hayden Crawford’s phone.
The lodic ringtone on the other end played once and was answered leisurely, Hayden Crawford’s familiar low voice gradually transmitted over, "President Xavier, why are you calling so late?"
"What’s the matter, Mr. Crawford, am I interrupting your and Mrs. Crawford’s nightlife?"
"Tsk tsk, your tone is so sarcastic, full of jealousy, you’re jealous of , a married man with a wife!"
For so reason, Justin Xavier found the word "wife" coming out of Hayden Crawford’s mouth incredibly gloating, he scoffed, "Where’s your wife then?"
"President Xavier, you’re overdoing it, calling late at night to show concern for my wife?"
"Instead of caring for your wife, don’t you think my concern for you is more dangerous?"
"..." Hayden Crawford was silent for two seconds, then to avoid rumors of "boy love" spreading outside, he said, "Alright, I’ll go get my wife."
Justin Xavier leaned his straight back lazily against the chair, his ear was then filled with Hayden Crawford’s sweet calls, "Honey! Honey! Honey!"
Already finding the word "wife" annoying, Justin Xavier, "..."
At this mont, Serena Sterling’s delicate voice was heard from the phone, "Honey, I’m here~"
Not quite recovered from the "wife" sound, Justin Xavier was struck again by the sound of "husband," "..."
"Wife, it’s Justin Xavier calling, he’s really annoying, quickly dismiss him, we should get to sleep~"
"Alright honey, you go ahead to bed, I’ll find you soon, mwah~"
"Okay, I’ll go warm up the bed~"
Listening to the couple’s conversation on the other end, Justin Xavier was so irked he wanted to smash his phone, "..."
His mood was already bad, and now he had been fed a bowl of dog food!
"Hey, President Xavier, you were looking for ?"
