Chapter 1423
"Darling, I was charmed by your agility the first time I saw you. My heart beat fast every time I saw your radiance
on TV ..." Skylar was reading out Leia's letter when everyone looked at Santiago. Santiago was an actor, so he was
probably the one Leia saw on TV. At that moment, Santiago's expression was soft, but Xavier's expression had
turned murderous. He was clenching his fists, looking like he was seconds away from strangling someone.
"I want to say that my first crush is you... Skylar. I hope we can get closer to each other in the next few episodes!"
After Skylar read out the last few words, he looked flustered. He scratched his head awkwardly and looked at Leia.

Everyone there was staring at Leia in disbelief. In the end, Leia's crush wasn't Xavier or Santiago... but Skylar?
They'd barely even spoken!
[No, she must be fooling us!]
[She's just making a scene...]
[No, I'm all for XavLeia love!]
[But Leia likes Santiago more...]
The netizens were arguing again because they felt like Leia was just trying to fool everyone. However, Santiago was
the calmest among them all, and he even looked a little happy.
Xavier's features were also more relaxed now, and he turned to Skylar with a fake smile. "Well, well. I didn't expect
you to swoop in when my back was turned."
"Mr. Stuart, Lei's obviously making a joke. There's nothing between us. Please don't harm the innocent..." Skylar
laughed nervously, desperately trying to get himself out of this mess. Everyone knew that Xavier was targeting
Leia, and anyone who got in his way would surely be in trouble. Skylar couldn't afford to pay the price of snatching
away a big shot's woman.
"Lei, I'm begging you. Please have mercy on me and write another letter," Skylar begged as he shoved the letter
back into Leia's hands.
"You're breaking my heart here, Skylar. I'm not messing with you. You were the Roacross Champion, and my heart

so I didn't do anything wrong," Leia explained seriously. It wasn't a lie-she really did find Skylar mesmerizing when
she watched his match, and she did admire him.
"Well, I can't argue with that." Skylar scratched his head awkwardly and sighed. "I just did my best. If you like, I can
take you swimming in the sea."
"Sure! Let's go snorkeling in front of my villa early tomorrow morning, okay?"
"Alright. You don't have to worry about drowning since I'll be there to protect you," Skylar said with a confident grin.
"Yeah, it'll be great having a merman like you around," Leia said teasingly.
They started talking to each other like old friends, and it was clear to everyone there that the two got along well.
