# Chapter 487: A Deadly Bargain for a Pair of Eyes
Hello, lovely readers! It’s me again, and I’m so glad to be back with you. How have you been? Today, we’re stepping into one of the most unsettling chapters of **"The Untouchable Ex Wife"** — a chapter where obsession, jealousy, and raw desperation collide in the most horrifying way. Imagine being asked for something so precious and personal that no amount of money, love, or power could ever replace it — and then imagine being threatened when you refuse. That’s exactly the nightmare Shirley walks into when she meets Leia’s chilling gaze. Grab a seat, because this chapter is not for the faint of heart!

The private room suddenly felt colder, thicker, and far more hostile. Shirley had just heard something that made her freeze for half a second — "My eyes?" She blinked in genuine confusion, completely unsure if she had heard correctly.
But before confusion could settle, Shirley’s vanity took over. Smiling smugly, she brushed a finger along her cheek and flipped her hair back. "Yes, I’m pretty, and so are my eyes. When I made my debut, people said my eyes were as bright as the moon. But... it doesn’t matter. Even if you’re jealous of me, I can’t give you my eyes!" Her tone was full of mock politeness, dripping with shameless self-adoration.
For Leia, this was no joke. Her gaze was sharp and earnest. "I need your eyes," she answered bluntly, not a single trace of hesitation in her voice. "If you’re willing to give them to me, Xavier will be yours from now on."
Shirley blinked — then laughed out loud, crossing her arms as though Leia had just told her the most ridiculous joke in the world. "Hah! Are you kidding me? First of all, I won’t let you have my eyes. And second, Xavier is already mine. I don’t have to give up my eyes to get him. What kind of logic is that?"
But Leia’s face remained dangerously calm. She knew her request sounded absurd. Even she understood how insane it sounded spoken out loud. Yet this wasn’t about logic — this was about Renee. This was about saving someone she cared about, no matter the cost. And if that meant stripping all pretense and revealing the ruthless truth, so be it.
"I know my request is ridiculous," Leia said slowly, letting the silence weigh down each word. "Of course, you won’t say yes easily... but I'm just here to remind you." She paused, and the temperature in the room seemed to drop again. "If you give your eyes to me, I have ways to help you get back with Xavier. If you say no..." Her voice turned cold and unforgiving. "There are some people who will use extreme measures to get your eyes. Then, you’ll lose both your eyes *and* Xavier."
She wasn't speaking in riddles. The message was clear. Stefan, Quinton, and even Leia herself would go to hell and back for Renee. If peaceful negotiation didn’t work, they were ready to take what they needed by force. For Leia, she had already made peace with the consequences. She was willing to become the monster in this story if it meant helping someone she loved.
Shirley's eyes widened in disbelief — then narrowed in fury. "Are you threatening me?" she demanded, staring at Leia as if she’d lost her mind. "I know your family is powerful, and it’ll be easy for you to take my eyes. But I’m not a pushover! I won’t let you do as you like with me!"
In one swift, dramatic movement, Shirley stormed over and flung the room’s door wide open. And just as she expected, her faithful fans had been hovering right outside, ears pressed to the wood. They stumbled forward awkwardly, trying to regain their composure.
But Shirley wasn’t about to let them escape the scene. She turned on the waterworks instantly, sobbing pitifully as though her whole world had just shattered. "You all heard her, right? This arrogant woman stole my man, and now she wants my eyes. She wants to ruin my life and send me to hell!"
The fans gasped, their protective instincts exploding into angry whispers and hostile glares.
Leia opened her mouth to explain, but the words got caught in her throat. There was no explanation to give — because Shirley wasn’t wrong. Leia had indeed confessed to wanting her eyes. Taking a deep breath, she straightened her back and looked directly into the growing storm of accusations.
"Yeah," Leia admitted, her voice steady despite the rising hostility around her. "I took a fancy to Shirley's eyes, and I want them. If her eyes are gone one day, you'll know that I’m the one who dug them out."
It was a reckless confession. A dangerous one. But Leia didn’t care anymore. If she had to play the role of the villain to make Renee regain her sight, she would do it fearlessly. After all, her reputation was already ruined. She was stronger than the rumors, stronger than the insults, stronger than all of them.
But the crowd didn't see her courage. All they saw was a wicked woman threatening their precious idol.
"What a wicked woman! How dare she want to dig out Shirley's eyes!" "I've never met such a shameless and wicked woman. She’s not even human!" "She’s more despicable than normal homewreckers. If we let her go today, she’ll definitely harm Shirley one day!" "I think we should fight fire with fire and dig out *her* eyes!"
The room churned with anger, fueled by alcohol and blind devotion. The fans’ faces twisted with irrational rage, their reason completely drowned by emotion. Before Leia could step back, rough hands grabbed her arms, her clothes, her hair.
"Hey, what are you doing? Let me go!" Leia shouted, her confidence crumbling into fear and panic as the mob closed in on her.
But her protests only made them angrier. Their fingers dug into her skin, and their intentions were nothing short of wicked. Trapped in a room full of enemies, Leia realized the terrible irony: she had come to demand someone else’s eyes — and now, the crowd wanted hers.

## Reader's Impressions & Star Rating
Oh my goodness, what a tense and heartbreaking chapter! Watching Leia sacrifice her own morality and reputation for someone else is painful and gripping at the same time. We can sense the love and desperation driving her, yet it’s frightening to see how far she is willing to go. Shirley, on the other hand, knows exactly how to play the victim and twist the narrative. Her fans are terrifyingly blind, and Leia’s peril feels all too real. The chapter leaves your heart pounding and your mind racing with questions!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars
## Next Chapter Prediction
In the next chapter, Leia will be in serious danger as Shirley’s fans turn violent. But I predict that just when things spin completely out of control, someone powerful will step in to save her — perhaps Stefan, Quinton, or even Renee herself. This rescue might expose even more secrets about Renee’s condition and ignite a fiercer confrontation between Shirley and the people who will do anything to protect Renee. One thing is certain: Shirley has no idea who she’s really messing with.
