The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 1421
After Leia left from the side door of the cottage, she purposely took the long way around the beach before coming to the outdoor
barbecue area. Everyone was excited to see her.
"Leia, there you are. We've been waiting for you!" Luna and Leia had become good friends because their houses were next to
each other. Luna had tried to persuade Leia to come to the barbecue earlier, but Leia had refused, so she was happy to see her
now.
"Hi! Yeah, I figured everyone would think I'm pretentious if I didn’t show up," Leia laughed awkwardly, feeling guilty.
"Haha! That's right-the more, the merrier. By the way, Mr. Dalton has been roasting chicken wings for you all night because he
knows how much you like them," Megan said, sounding slightly jealous as she gestured at the rows of chicken wings on the grill.
"Thanks to Mr. Dalton, you get to pick from wings with New Orleans sauce, honey sauce, salt and pepper, and so on... If only we
were so lucky!"
Leia looked at Santiago, feeling touched. At the same time, she felt guilty. "You've been working hard, Mr. Dalton. I should be the
one roasting the chicken wings for you." She walked over to Santiago and picked up a basting brush, trying to add more sauce to
the chicken wings.
"Be careful!" Santiago noticed that she was too close to the fire, and quickly stood in front of her. He winced as sparks
from the fire fell on the back of his hand.
"Ah! Are you okay, Mr. Dalton? You can't afford to have scars on your hands, it would ruin your modeling jobs!" Megan gasped,
feeling bad for Santiago.
"Mr. Dalton, are... are you okay?" Leia asked fearfully.
"It's okay. I'll just wash it, it should be fine." Santiago frowned when he saw the burn, then walked to a sink nearby.
Leia followed him, looking like a guilty child, and whispered," Mr. Dalton, are... are you mad at me?"
Santiago turned on the tap and let the cold water run on the back of his hand. He smiled at her and said lightly, "I want to be mad
at you... but I can't, and I don't have the right to do so either."
Leia glanced at him and asked hesitantly, "So, you... know what happened just now?"

Santiago turned around and looked at her intently. "What do I know?"
"No, it's nothing." Leia immediately looked away, feeling ashamed when she met his clear gaze.
"I figured you were stargazing at the beach just now. I actually wanted to invite you to take a walk on the beach..." Santiago
smiled sadly. "But it seems I was too late."
"No, you're not." Leia immediately looked up at the starry sky and said excitedly, "Look! All the stars are out now, so we can
enjoy the view together if you want."
"Really?" Santiago stared at Leia with bright eyes. "Yes, we can go right now!"
