Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband-Chapter 1040: You Are My Mrs. Xavier
Justin Xavier had no idea what was happening. Leah Thorne’s memory was erratic. She remembered Madame Goldie and Cheryl Ford, which was a good sign, but she kept forgetting him.
Even if she saw him a second ago, she’d forget him the next instant.
At this moment, Leah’s gaze fell on Justin Xavier, since he was standing with Cheryl Ford, she naturally asked, "Cheryl, is that your boyfriend?"
Cheryl’s face turned red. She quietly approached Justin Xavier and whispered, "President Xavier, why not... just say you’re my boyfriend, that way you can get a chance to interact with Leah."
Justin Xavier looked at Leah Thorne, ignoring Cheryl Ford completely.
Thinking he agreed, Cheryl immediately reached out to hold Justin Xavier’s strong arm.
But she missed. Justin didn’t move, but he lowered his gaze to his sleeve and then looked at Cheryl’s face, suggesting she’d better not try touching him.
Cheryl froze instantly, "President Xavier, I..."
"Is this the manners the Ford family taught you, to casually have physical contact with a married man?" Justin Xavier asked coldly and indifferently.
Cheryl’s face turned completely white.
Leah looked confused at this scene. She really thought Justin Xavier was Cheryl’s boyfriend, but now this man was saying he was married? 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Well, he really was a good man.
At that moment, Leah saw the wedding ring on his left ring finger. He’d been wearing it all along.
This ring... seemed very familiar.
Suddenly, Leah felt uncomfortable. This feeling of familiarity made her resist, made her sad.
"Are you okay?" Sensing Leah’s oddness immediately, Justin Xavier quickly strode over and asked with concern.
"I’m fine..."
Before Leah could finish her words, Justin Xavier placed his large hand on her forehead, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Leah jolted and quickly stepped back to evade his hand, frowning, "Didn’t you say you’re married? Please respect yourself!"
Just now, he had refused Cheryl; she thought he was a good man.
But then he ran over to touch her forehead, as if they were very close. Leah thought, no, he wasn’t a good man.
Looking at her unhappy face, Justin Xavier smirked, "I am married, and my wife is... you!"
What?
Leah was stunned, "..."
Was she his wife?
Was she dreaming?
She was the famous Leah Thorne; did he think he could just decide to be her husband? He must be out of his mind.
Justin Xavier looked at her dumbfounded expression. Over the past half month, she had been getting better; her once painfully thin face had become a bit rosy under his care. Her eyes were the most beautiful, so pure and clear.
Now he had her wrapped around his finger with one sentence.
He wasn’t willing to wait.
She could forget him; he would let her get to know him again.
Every time she forgot, he would teach again.
Forget once, he’d teach once.
One day, she would remember him.
Leah had no idea what he was thinking. She only felt her face getting hot. She coughed lightly and awkwardly smiled, "Sir, you really know how to joke. My name is Leah Thorne, and I’m not your wife..."
Before she finished speaking, Justin Xavier suddenly walked toward her. What... what did he want to do?
Leah immediately stepped back until she was pressed against the wall. Justin Xavier placed his large hand against the wall beside her with a "slap," trapping her in his embrace. His low, mellow voice came from above with a hint of a smile, "Did you forget you are my wife? Alright, let me help you remember..."
What did this mean?
Justin Xavier lowered his handsome body, "I can tell you about every one of our firsts, like our first hand-holding, first hug, first kiss, first night together, and first..."
"Enough, stop talking!" Leah felt her ears heat up. She reached out to push him away a bit, "I think you’re really sick. If you’re ill, you need to take medicine. Go and take your medicine quickly!"
Justin Xavier raised an eyebrow, "Oh, alright."
He immediately grasped her small hand in his, leading her away.
Leah was terrified, "You, what are you doing, let go!"
The man ahead didn’t turn around, his voice cheerful, revealing his current good mood, "Didn’t you tell me to take medicine? You’re my medicine, and I’ll take you... home."
Leah, "..."
"Sir, I’ll say it again, let go of me. You’re already guilty of harassment, seriously threatening my personal safety. I can totally call the police to catch..."
The word "you" was left unsaid as she suddenly "boom" fell into the man’s arms because he stopped abruptly, and she was caught off guard.
Her delicate chin was caught between his two fingers, Justin Xavier’s handsome features expanding in her view, "Wifey, I say you’re my wife, and you don’t believe it. Dare you come home with me to see if you really are my wife, do you dare?"
Leah’s delicate face started to heat up; she didn’t know if it was the electricity from his touch or the tender emotion in his eyes when he called her "wifey."
He actually called her... wifey~
Leah’s heart was in chaos when she suddenly heard Serena Sterling’s voice, "Leah."
Serena Sterling had arrived, accompanied by the tall and handsome Hayden Crawford.
The Crawford couple was here.
Leah immediately pushed Justin Xavier away and ran over to Serena Sterling, "Serena, you’re here?"
"Yes." Serena held Leah’s small hand, "Leah, let’s go, I’ll give you a check-up."
"Alright." Leah followed Serena Sterling away.
...
After Serena Sterling finished the check-up and came out, Justin Xavier was already waiting for her.
"How is Leah?" Justin Xavier asked.
Serena Sterling nodded, "Leah and the baby have been doing well for the past half month."
Justin Xavier let out a big sigh of relief, "That’s good. Later, can you help me confirm my identity as her husband to Leah?"
Sometimes, Justin really envied Serena Sterling because Leah never forgot about her dear friend, Serena. Now his identity required Serena’s help to confirm.
Serena hesitated for a moment, then slowly frowned, "President Xavier, do you really want Leah to remember you?"
"What do you mean?"
"Have you ever thought about why Leah suddenly got better? Maybe it’s because... Leah forgot about you, so she got better."
Justin Xavier stiffened suddenly.
"Because Leah forgot you, she was able to breathe freely. Once Leah remembers you, her psychological issues might resurface. President Xavier, you’ve become Leah’s ailment."
Justin Xavier’s thin lips pressed into a cold arc, and he remained silent for a long time.
"President Xavier, do you want to let go now?" Serena Sterling asked.
All the questions returned to the starting point, leading him to let go again and again.
Justin Xavier shook his head slowly and then uttered two words, "I won’t."
