Renee stood frozen in front of the mirror, her fingers trembling as she traced the air above Quinton’s face. The scar was so deep, so cruel, that even now it seemed to mock every hope they had of a normal life. She let out a shaky breath and turned to Leia.
"How would we even do it?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper. "This is not just a scratch. It’s… it’s carved into him."
Leia bit her lip, her determined eyes meeting Renee’s. "Ordinary plastic surgeons might not be able to do it, but plastic surgeons who work for celebrities can do just about anything. I’m sure a renowned plastic surgeon can do it!" Leia had seen the transformations celebrities underwent after debuting—the sharpened jaws, the refined noses, the flawless skin. If they could erase entire identities, why not a scar?
Renee sighed, rubbing her forehead. "But I don’t even know any experts in the field, and I can’t afford to hire a fraud." She remembered the times she had suggested hiring a top surgeon for Quinton. He had always refused, his pride and stubbornness standing like an unbreakable wall. Even if they found a great surgeon, the appointment alone might take years—if they ever even got one at all.
Leia shifted her weight, then looked away. "We might not have the connections for that, but we know someone who does…" Her voice trailed off, a strange flush creeping onto her cheeks.
Renee blinked, confused for a moment. Then the realization hit her like cold water. Her eyes widened. "Oh, I get it now. You’re right. We should have gone to him a long time ago."
Without wasting another second, the two women rushed out of the house and headed straight for the headquarters of Universal Entertainment.
The building loomed tall and intimidating, glass windows reflecting the cold afternoon light. Renee’s heart thumped in her chest as they approached the entrance. When they reached the door, Leia stopped. She folded her arms over her chest, leaned her back against the glass, and turned to Renee with a gentle smile.
"Ren, go on up. I’ll wait here for you."
Renee looked up at the building hesitantly, uncertainty gnawing at her. She turned to Leia, biting the inside of her cheek. "I think we should go together. I’m not very close to Xavier, and he’ll probably…"
Her words were swallowed by the nervous knot in her throat. But Leia’s expression remained steady. There was something unreadable in her eyes—a quiet resignation, a hidden story. Renee realized then that this was about more than Quinton’s scar. It was about trust. About confronting someone from their past.
The walls of Universal Entertainment hummed with gossip. Inside the bustling hallways, a group of employees and board members huddled together, whispering in hushed, excited tones.
"Hah, he’s probably found another pretty face. Whoever it is, I hope she’s better than Shirley. If not, this year’s financial report will be terrifying!"
The company had somehow managed to survive for the past few years, but only barely. Shirley, though the most popular actress, had a business value that remained embarrassingly low. Deciding to risk offending Xavier, the board of directors had hesitantly suggested replacing Shirley with someone new. Everyone had been prepared for Xavier’s wrath—they all knew Shirley was his favorite. His princess. His untouchable muse.
But to their utter shock, Xavier had wholeheartedly supported the idea. The announcement sent ripples through the company. Who was this new face? Why would he abandon his beloved Shirley so quickly?
A junior staff member leaned in, lowering her voice even more. "Didn’t you guys hear? I heard that his new girlfriend is Ms. Leia Osborne!"
Gasps and whispers echoed around the room like wildfire. Leia? Osborne? Wasn’t she Xavier’s sworn enemy? The very name had been taboo not so long ago. How could the man who had once been at odds with her now be dating her? It was a scandal worthy of the headlines.
"Well, if that’s true, it certainly makes for a good story. It may make us money if we turn it into a movie," Ryan rubbed his chin and said contemplatively, a sly grin curling on his lips.
"I was thinking the same thing! In Shirley’s case, we’ve lost more money…" someone else chimed in, but the rest of the words faded into the cacophony of gossip.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the shadows of that towering building, Renee stood with her own demons whispering in her ear. Xavier was a man she had once been tangled with in ways she never wished to remember. And Leia—dear, loyal Leia—had silently taken on such a dangerous gamble. Was she really dating Xavier now? Or was it all just another game of masks and lies?
Every step Renee took toward Xavier’s office felt like walking across a battlefield of memories. Yet she kept going, because Quinton’s scar was not just a mark on his skin. It was a reminder of all the pain they had suffered. And if Xavier was the only key to healing it, then she would face him—even if the door leading to him would open a new storm of troubles.

**Reader’s Impressions & Star Rating:**
Oh, what a heart-wrenching chapter! I felt every ounce of Renee’s hesitation and Leia’s quiet sacrifice. The way the author contrasts Renee’s desperate mission for Quinton’s scar with the corporate gossip about Xavier and Leia is brilliant—it creates this sense of dramatic irony that makes you want to yell at the characters to just sit down and talk. The tension is beautifully layered, and you can’t help but grow even more invested in Leia’s secret motives and Xavier’s true intentions. The chapter leaves you with so many burning questions that you simply cannot stop reading.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars

**Next Chapter Prediction:**
I predict that Renee will finally come face-to-face with Xavier, and the meeting won’t go smoothly at all. Tension will flare as past grudges resurface, but behind Xavier’s cold façade, we might see a flicker of hidden protection for Leia and Renee. Meanwhile, the board meeting about Shirley’s replacement will escalate, and Leia’s name being dragged into the spotlight could create an explosive public scandal—forcing Xavier to either reveal his true relationship with Leia, or risk everything he’s built to protect her. Get ready for reveals, confrontations, and maybe a shocking alliance!
