The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 1428
Naturally, Xavier wouldn’t lose such an important position.
"I want Skylar to be my diving partner," Santiago ignored Xavier and said to the coach calmly. His words shocked both Xavier
and Leia, Xavier even more so.
"What the hell are you doing? You’re trying to advance by retreating? What kind of strategy is that?" Xavier glared at Santiago
and demanded, "Why did you pick Skylar? We've finally got a chance to fight each other head-on, so why are you backing out
now?"
Santiago glanced at Xavier in disdain and murmured, "I'll leave Lei in your hands for now, but you have to make sure she's safe."
Puzzled, Xavier watched as Santiago dove into the sea with Skylar after they had changed into their diving suits. "He's mad!"
Xavier scoffed, peeved that he was the only one on this metaphorical battlefield. Santiago didn't even want to fight against him.
He sighed and walked over to a dazed Leia, then said casually, "Let's get going then, dive buddy."
"I must be very unlucky to be paired up with you," Leia grumbled, upset that she couldn't go diving with Santiago. She had
wanted to explore the sea with him, hand in hand, but now she was stuck with Xavier. How could she entrust her life to an
unreliable playboy like him? Why had Santiago backed away when they had just confessed their feelings to each other?
"Hey, don't look down on me! I was once a diving champion, okay? Wait and see, I'll find that moonstone for you!" Xavier
growled, figuring that if the moonstone really did exist, Leia would find it very romantic if he got it for her.
They dived into the sea one by one, and were spellbound. It was like a whole other world, and they could see many fish and
coral reefs. If they were lucky, they might even encounter a jackfish storm.
Leia adjusted her mouthpiece and slowly dived deeper. As her dive buddy, Xavier followed her closely, keeping an eye on her.
Santiago was also a few meters away from them, guarding them. He had kept his ear surgery hidden from the public, and as he
dived deeper, his eardrums hurt terribly. Dismayed, he didn't dive any deeper.
As Leia dived deeper, she suddenly saw a coral reef with many oysters. Some of them were slightly open, and she could see the
warm luster of pearls gleaming inside them. Leia stared at the coral reef in awe, and suddenly saw something shining in the
corner of the reef between some stones.

"Look!" Leia couldn't speak clearly because of her mouthpiece, so she waved at Xavier excitedly. "It's the moonstone!"
