The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Chapter 1283
Shirley was a new rising star. Although her commercial value was average, her fans and fame were excellent. Thus, her
whereabouts were a secret, and it was hard for ordinary people to meet her. Even after asking around, Leia didn’t gain any
useful clues. Finally, she braced herself and went to Universal Entertainment.
She’d decided to ask Xavier about Shirley. After all, Shirley was his first love, so he should know everything about Shirley.
When the young receptionist saw Leia, she immediately got up and welcomed her enthusiastically. “Miss Osborne, you must be
here to see Mr. Stuart. He’s in his office now. You can go up without making an appointment.”
“Oh... Okay.” Leia scratched her hair and looked at the eager receptionist doubtfully. She had dated Xavier secretly in the past,
and not many people had known about it. She had to go through a very complicated procedure every time she went to Universal
Entertainment to see him, and meeting him without an appointment was very difficult, so this was rather strange.
As she headed to Xavier’s office, many employees stole glances at her. If they accidentally met her gaze, they would
immediately look away guiltily. The whole office building seemed to be engulfed in gloominess, and it was like everyone was
walking on eggshells.
However, her sudden arrival seemed like a ray of hope to the employees, and everyone welcomed her as if she was their savior.
“Miss Osborne, this way please.” Another charming female employee was even more enthusiastic as she led Leah into the
elevator. She even considerately handed a pack of tissue paper to Leah. “Miss Osborne, please take this-you might need it
later.”
Leia felt like she was being led into the battlefield. She carefully asked the lady, “What’s going on? Has this building been
hijacked by terrorists or something? Are you guys being held hostage?”
“Er, well...” The employee swallowed. She wore a tight skirt and high heels, and her posture was stiff. “It’s worse than a terrorist.
We’re not hostages but innocent people... Mr.
Stuart will deal with us if we’re careless.”
“What do you mean? Is Xavier out of his mind? Is he attacking people now?” Leia asked incredulously, then added, “He’s not an
emotional person. Did his first love hurt him? Is that why he’s venting his anger on his pitiful employees?”

“We don’t know the details, but he changed after talking to you and Miss White the other day. He always smiled in the past, and
wouldn’t be mad at us regardless of how we joked with him. However, now... we may even get fired if we take a deeper breath
these days, let alone make a joke. The personnel department had to replace his secretary three times already, and you won’t
believe why they were fired in
the first place...”
Leia frowned. “Why were they fired?”
“One was five minutes late to work, and the other used a lipstick that was ‘the wrong color’. And another was fired because... her
name sounds like yours. You’re Leah, and she’s Ayra Dixon. So, she was fired, but Mr. Stuart generously paid them all twice the
usual amount of compensation,” the employee elaborated as if she was commenting on a book.
However, Xavier’s behaviour was indeed abnormal these days, like a character from a fantasy story.
The employees secretly guessed that his mood swings might either be related to Shirley or Leia. After all, he had changed only
after meeting them. Shirley was a famous star with a tight daily schedule, so she rarely went to the headquarters of Universal
Entertainment, but fortunately, Leia was here to save them.
