Chapter 1596
Owen had said that people who resembled Renee had a high possibility of a perfect match, especially those whose eyes looked
like Renee's. Hence, they had to choose people who looked like Renee.
"Thank you so much.” Stefan took off his coat and handed it to Margaret, then sat with the others and started screening for
suitable candidates.
Owen was reading the news when an article caught his attention. It was an exclusive interview with the best actress, Shirley.
Shirley looked charming, sweet, and vulnerable in the interview, and openly expressed her regrets about her relationship with
Xavier. The interview had caused an uproar, and it was obvious that Xavier's change of heart was because of Leia's involvement.
Shirley's fans condemned Leia on the Internet, and photoshopped ugly photos and videos of Leia. They even investigated her
and spread rumors about her, making Leia a social outcast. She now had to be cautious when going out.
"Guys, stop..." Owen clicked on the interview and waved at the others. "Come and take a look at this."
Everyone looked at Owen's tab. When they saw Shirley and her reckless statement, an awkward silence filled the room.
Stefan used to be an aloof man, but he was forced to mediate the situation. "Owen, why are you being such a busybody? Hurry
up and turn it off!"
The issue between Xavier and Leia was yet to be resolved, but they were staying under the same roof in order to find a pair of
eyes for Renee. However, they barely talked to each other because Leia was utterly disappointed in Xavier. She ignored all his
attempts at talking, and after several failed attempts, Xavier became uneasy and stopped trying to please Leia or speak to her.
Thus, they just stared at each other grumpily most of the time. When Owen showed them Shirley's interview, it was like rubbing
salt into the wound.
"No, why should I turn it off? Don't you think it's... special?" Owen pointed at Shirley and asked urgently. Since he was always
engrossed in medical research, he never paid any attention to the entertainment circle, and didn't even know Shirley existed until
now.
"Oh, she's special all right," Leia glanced at the video and scoffed coldly. Shirley's interview claimed she and Xavier were a
perfect match, and that destiny had brought them together. Xavier had saved the damsel in distress and helped promote Shirley
to her current level. Shirley loved Xavier passionately and was ready to marry him, but suddenly, a rich young lady appeared and
snatched away Shirley's love. Consequently, Xavier had a change of heart, and not only abandoned Shirley, but also suspended
her from all work.
