Chapter 2210
Forsty silence overcame everyone. Everyone was full of complicated emotions.
"I need some fresh air," Leia said coldly, rising. She silently walked past Renee and went to a deserted corner.
She knew she was being impudent, and that she should never blame Renee or get jealous for no reason.
However, she was exhausted after so much torture these days. She almost had a mental
breakdown, and she couldn't think straight. She just wanted to see Liam safe. She couldn't care about anything else.
"Lei..." Renee wanted to run after Leia, but Xavier stopped her.
"I'll be with her. You guys should get some rest." Xavier sighed. He gave Renee and Justin a profound look before he quickly caught up with Leia.
Renee flexed her fingers as she watched their backs. She trembled slightly, growing teary. "I knew it! Lei's mad at me. Even I think I'm a scumbag, let alone her... It would be better if I stopped Liam. I was selfish!"
"It wasn't your fault!" Justin wanted to hug Renee, but he thought it might be too inappropriate. She might resist. Hence, he held himself back and tried to comfort her softly.
"People can't control their emotions when they're helpless. They'll find something to attack to relieve their uneasiness. I think she doesn't blame you. She's just heartbroken, so she's hostile to everyone. Believe it or not, she can even kick a passing dog and say it's because the dog's barking will affect Mr. Osborne's surgery."
"Pfft!" Renee failed to hold herself back and laughed. "I hope so! Lei is my best friend. She's like a sister to me. Even though I made a mistake, I don't want this to affect our relationship."
"It's fine even if your relationship is affected," Justin said casually. "People can't be close forever. It's just like our teeth and tongue. We might accidentally bite our tongue. So, it's fine. We just need to talk more to make peace. I'm sure Mr. Osborne will be fine, so you guys will get closer to each other. You don't have to worry too much about it."
"Mm!" Renee nodded. For the first time, she found him reliable. He wasn't as thoughtless as she imagined.
Meanwhile, Leia did what Justin had anticipated. Her anxiety made her punch a trunk because a branch had hooked her hair.
"What a lousy tree! It has messy branches that grow everywhere! If Liam walks past here, this will poke his eyes..." While cursing the branch, she wiped away her tears. "Damn it! The whole world stands against me, even a branch! I'm miserable!"
"The branch didn't stand against you, but you beat it up. I think the branch is miserable instead."
Xavier, who followed her, saw her beat up a tree for no reason. It was an amusing sight.noveldrama
"I didn't ask you to follow me..." Leia snapped.
