The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Leia crossed her arms and sneered. "We've been trying to go in, but your staff won't let US... It's ridiculous that they don't even know who the hero of the movie is. Is this the quality of the staff of Universal Entertainment?"

The staffs face turned pale, and he lowered his head fearfully and apologized, "I... I'm so sorry. I should have familiarized myself with the main cast of the movie. It was my mistake."

"Is that really the reason? It's clear that you looked down on us!" Leia snapped. "Didn't you stop us because we didn't dress to your standards?"

"I... I..." The staff wrung his hands anxiously, looking regretful.

"I recall that we need to show our invitation cards or working permits to get in, right?" Shirley smiled calmly. "Ms. Osborne, don't you have them?"

"I forgot to bring them!"

"Then, Ms. Osborne, it's because of you that he got it wrong. You've treated this staff unjustly. I hope you won't make things difficult for him." Shirley's gentle words smoothly turned the situation around, making it seem like Leia was behaving unreasonably.

The staff rushed to thank Shirley, staring at her gratefully. "Thank you, Ms. White. You understand how difficult it is for workers like US. I was just doing my job and didn't mean to offend anyone... I'm so sorry!"

"How could you!" Leia's eyes widened in outrage. "If you really were working without bias, you wouldn't have been that rude. You know you were looking down on us!"Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Ms. Osborne..." Shirley said soothingly, "Sometimes more than one person has to be blamed for a mistake. It's probably that both people involved are at fault. Aren't you being too stubborn by refusing to let go of this?" Her meaning was obvious-both Leia and Xavier were to be blamed.

Leia instantly understood her implication and scoffed, "Enough with the accusations. I don't care how many people are to be blamed for this, what's done is done, and nothing can fix it!" She stormed off, pulling Jeffrey into the hotel.

Shirley watched Leia with a triumphant smirk. With a rival so blunt and easily manipulated, it would be a piece of cake to win Xavierlover. "Xavier, it looks like Ms. Osborne is still mad at you. She's a rich young heir after all, so she's not used to such treatment. I already explained to her that there was nothing between US, so why can't she let it go?" Shirley looked at Xavier and asked helplessly.

Xavier's face was like thunder. Nobody could tell if he was angry at Leia or Shirley, but after a while, he replied calmly, "She was right."

"Mm?"

"No one can undo a mistake, and it can't be forgotten either. It's normal to be mad and not want to forgive someone." Xavier seemed to be talking about something else.

Shirley instantly stopped talking. She, of all people, had no right to talk about forgiveness.
