Chapter 38


    Chapter 38 Are You Out of Your Mind?


    Xander did not even twitch when he spotted ire. With his head held up high, he asked in a loft voice,


    “Just when can you return my family’s shares to me, ire?”


    He did not beat around the bush at all. It was clear he wanted this matter resolved quickly, but ire


    had a lot of time on hands today. Hence, she refused to let him have his way.


    “How did you find this ce?” she asked.


    Xander proudly puffed out his chest. “Thisnd belongs to the Morgans.”


    Ah.


    It was no wonder that Robert knew where she stayed. The production team would always let the


    people in charge know where they would be filming next. Since her dearest junior had gone viral


    exposing ire as C. S. Lawrence, the information that she was currently at the film set was practically


    public knowledge.


    There was nothing strange about Xander’s ability to know where she was, then


    With her hands behind her back, ire imitated his arrogance and asked, “When are you hosting


    another engagement party with rissa? I’ll have a great gift ready for you two then.”


    A great gift?


    Her gift for thest engagement party had utterly humiliated the Donovans. Still, she had another gift in


    mind!

    Xander nearly choked on his own saliva. ire’s tongue had turned sharp. recently, making her a


    rather difficult woman to deal with.


    “Don’t change the subject, ire. I’ll ask you once more. When will you return the shares to me?”


    “Are you crazy?” ire looked at him with amusement sparkling in her eyes. “I finally got my hands on


    the Morgan Group shares. Why would I give them tc you?”


    Xander spat out through gritted teeth, “You stole them!”


    “Hah!” ire burst outughing from anger. Was Xander here to pull her leg?


    “In that case, your dear Great-Grandpa is my aplice, right? We stole your family’s shares, right?”


    “You!”


    ire was so despicable! She knew that he was afraid of Sean, so she insisted on using Sean to


    threaten him.


    Hanging down by his side, his right hand was curled into a tight fist. “I’m being very polite right now,


    ire. Don’t push your luck!”


    ire had lost interest in talking to him anymore and rolled her eyes as she ignored him and walked


    away.


    Xander marched after her and forcefully grabbed ire’s arm. “You say you dor t want to marry me, but


    you’re still dreaming of being my wife, aren’t you? Why else would you cling to me in this matter? You


    know that I will never

    like you if you keep bothering me, right? I only find you disgusting, ire!”


    ire rapidly blinked. Xander was being so funny yet infuriating.


    Stuck betweenughter and tears, she eventually said, “You should get a checkup done at the hospital,


    Xander. You are really out of your mind. You’re even being delusional.”


    Xander red hard at him and stubbornly demanded, “Do you have the guts t say that you’re not just


    ying hard to get, ire?”


    ire felt speechless. After all, logic only worked with a normal person. No amount of logic could get


    through to a crazy man.


    She looked down at Xander’s hand mped around her arm and darkly said, “Le go.”


    Xander had always been viewed as the chosen one his whole life. With his ego The would never have


    approached ire if he were not backed into a corner since his family refused to give him a single


    penny anymore.


    Out of stubbornness, he tightened his grip around ire’s arm instead of letting go as she asked.


    A dark look shed in ire’s eyes. Unwilling to waste her breath, she raised her other hand and


    grabbed the thumb of the hand on her arm. In one hard twist, she pulled it back so forcefully that


    Xander immediately howled in pain.


    “Ouch! It hurts! Let go of me, ire! Let go!”


    ire coldly scoffed when she saw how bad he was at tolerating pain. It was simply-ridiculous that he


    had the nerve to challenge her when he was weak.


    The moment she let go, Xander rolled around on the ground with his thumb cradled in his other hand.


    As the pain started to ease up, Xander red up at ire. “You attacked me. You actually attacked


    me!”


    As the heir of the Morgans, Xander was a very powerful man in Silverton whc could have whatever he


    wanted. No one dared to explicitly scold him to his face, let alone attack him. ire was the first.


    -ire sneered and jeered before strutting away with her hands behind her back.

    However, that one sneer stunned Xander.


    His impression of ire was a weakling who never resisted while others walked all over her. She would


    always be so cautious around them as if she were afraid of doing anything that might upset them.


    The smirk he just saw on her face was filled with rampant confidence and a hint of wicked mischief


    mixed with disdain. She looked just like a seductive devil. Despite how sinister the sneer was, she was


    so breathtakingly beautiful that he was hooked.


    It took a long while after ire’s departure before Xander eventually snapped back to his senses.


    He abruptly clutched his chest with a hand, frightened by what he felt.

    Darn it!


    D-Did his heart skip just now?


    A few long minutester, he finally recovered from the terrible turn of events.


    There was no way he could ever like a woman like ire.


    Just then, his phone rang. When he nced at the screen, he saw that it was a call from rissa.


    Holding the phone up to his ear, he heard rissa’s sweet voice call out to him over the phone,


    “Xander…”


    The sweet voice of her calling him set his entire body tingling with joy. That was more like it!


    The type of women he liked should be sweet girls from rich families like rissa.


    “Did you miss me, rissa?”


    rissa shyly giggled. “I’m shopping right now, and I saw that the limited edition Chanel dress is in


    stock again. You said you were going to buy it for me.”


    True …


    However, the only money Xander had to his name right now was a little over 100 dors. He could not


    even afford to buy even a scrap of fabric from

    Chanel, let alone a limited edition dress.


    His face swiftly turned red. “rissa, you know that I …”


    rissa’s voice/immediately turned icy. “Fine. Forget it. See you around.”


    “rissa, wait!”


    Xander frantically shouted. Then, he nced to the side. When he spotted someone walking past him,


    he quickly lowered his voice. “My mom will be home in a few days. Don’t worry. She will never abandon


    me. I’ll buy it for you then?”


    rissa’s voice instantly softened. “I just know you’re the best. Oh, right. If your mom ising home


    in a few days, why don’t I … stay at your ce tonight? We can watch a movie together.”
