Under the heiress facade

Chapter 758

Xavier stared at Gemma with bloodshot eyes, his sharp gaze filled with hatred. His handsome face no longer had the silly expressions from before.

"Haven't you been lying to me as well?" Xavier asked. His clear voice and icy tone held no resemblance to his usual silly manner of speaking. He was tired and didn't want to pretend any longer.

Gemma was happy yet disappointed to see Xavier this way. She had no idea whether she should cry or laugh.

She was happy that Xavier wasn't foolish anymore. She no longer had to worry about him living on his own in the Killian residence after she was gone. But she was also disappointed to learn that Xavier had been pretending to be dumb on purpose and even lied to her.

Gemma had genuinely cared for Xavier all these years. Weren't her efforts worth his forgiveness? Even a little would do.

"Xavi, you... I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I know what I did was wrong. Can you forgive me?" Gemma choked out. Her eyes reddened as tears streamed down her face.

"I know what I did was wrong. All these years, I've devoted myself to religion every day to pray for you and the family. Even if my prayers didn't work, I still gave it my all. I beg you, please forgive me, okay?"
