Chapter 1244 Pleading for Xavier

"Do you know that I am a person with emotions?

"But why? I have never despised you, but you only have Veronica in your heart. I'm afraid… I'm afraid

that if Matthew dies, you will have hope for Veronica again and want to be with her.

"Sebastian, it's my fault… I'm sorry… I'm really in love with you… Utterly in love with you…"

Princess Antheena, the noble daughter of the Black Ace Mob's leader, was a precious gem admired by

many.

But she chose Xavier Crawford among the many outstanding people who liked her and never looked

back.

In the eyes of outsiders, Antheena was cold and cruel, yet noble and calm.

Only in the face of Xavier, his silent and profound demeanor fascinated her.

Especially the scar on his incredibly handsome face added a touch of maturity and stability that came

with time, exuding a charming charm that she loved.

Because of this deep-rooted love, Antheena loved him humbly.

As Xavier listened to Antheena's confession, his hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly. He leaned

forward slightly and extinguished the cigarette on the ashtray.

Then, he turned around, pressed Antheena onto the sofa, and leaned down to kiss her lips.

His sudden kiss stunned Antheena for a while before she came back to her senses.

Since their marriage, he had always kept his distance from her. Even the kiss on the wedding day was

just a symbolic kiss on her forehead as he held her hand.

Their intimacy had always been limited to this.

Therefore, Xavier's belated kiss shocked and excited Antheena. She was stunned for several seconds

before she wrapped her arms around Xavier's neck and kissed him back.

The temperature in the room suddenly rose, and the tenderness turned into a blazing fire, successfully

making up for the regret in Antheena's heart.

Antheena thought that her confession had touched Xavier, causing him to have feelings for her.

Little did she know that it was Xavier's disappointment caused by Veronica's deception that created a

strong contrast with Antheena's goodness toward him, making his heart ache for Antheena at a certain

moment, thus "fulfilling" her.

When Veronica was carried back to the room by Matthew, her body had already returned to normal,

and she could move freely.

But Matthew kept holding Veronica's hand tightly, unwilling to let go.

"Matt, I'm fine."

She brushed his hand away before walking off and taking a seat. She was about to pour herself some

water. However, Matthew had already taken the kettle and poured a cup of warm water for Veronica.

"Drink some water."

"Okay."

She picked up the cup and drank the water, but her gaze was fixed on the cup on the table, lost in

thought.

Even after she finished drinking all the water in the cup, she still held it to her mouth, unaware there

was no water in it.

Matthew saw her absent-mindedness and furrowed his brows. "Is Xavier so important to you?"

He was overwhelmed with jealousy.

Veronica snapped out of her thoughts. Putting the cup in her hand, she lowered her head and sighed. "I

deceived him."

"So, if you were given another chance, would you choose to tell him the truth?" Matthew asked in

return.

Veronica shook her head. "I don't know."

There was a deep hatred between Matthew and Xavier. However, one was her beloved husband while

the other was her benefactor, so Veronica really didn't know what to do.

"Rest well. I'm going out for a while."

Matthew turned and walked outside.

Veronica tensed upon seeing that. She suddenly stood up, grabbed Matthew's hand, and pleaded for

Xavier. "Let Xavier go!"

She anxiously begged on Xavier's behalf.

Matthew paused. His expression instantly darkened, and he slowly turned around. "What did you say?"
