Substitute Wife, Genius CEO novel Chapter 251

Summer glanced back.

The young girl was terrified, doing nothing but screaming in horror as she forgot everything else. She even shut her eyes in fear, allowing the car to barrel recklessly toward Summer.

"Watch out!"

Summer was pulled by a large hand and fell heavily into a man's embrace.

The man's large hand hastily landed where it shouldn't have, pressing against a soft curve.

In that instant, Xavier clearly felt the woman in his arms stiffen, and he himself felt a wave of awkwardness.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to," Xavier said in a low voice.

"Xavier? What are you doing?"

Lily had followed Xavier out, only to see a woman leaning intimately into his arms.

Xavier released Summer and turned to look at Lily.

Summer felt utterly repulsed, as if she were covered in grime.

Frowning in extreme displeasure, she reached out, grabbed Xavier's arm, and forcefully pulled him back.

*Slap!*

A bright red handprint quickly surfaced on Xavier's face. The stinging pain made it obvious how much force was behind that slap.

He hadn't expected to be hit. He let out a scoff of disbelief, running his tongue against the inside of his cheek, and stared at Summer with a somber gaze. "Ms. Pax, what do you think you're doing?"

Summer was shorter than Xavier, but she tipped her chin up, her imposing aura not losing to his in the slightest.

She replied in an icy tone, "Is Mr. Sterling that desperate for a woman?"

Xavier gritted his teeth, annoyed. "Ms. Pax. First, I have a partner. Second, I was trying to save you just now; it was an accident. And finally, I already apologized to you."
