Urging Him to Get a Divorce (Aveline and Xavier) novel Chapter 197

Chapter 197

“Uncle, you’d better be careful or Auntie might really divorce you, and then you won’t have a beautiful wife any- more.”

Rupert looked at Xavier and grunted heavily.

Brielle was embarrassed. “This child, what nonsense are you talking about.”

Xavier just smiled faintly and said nothing, picking up a cherry from the plate on the coffee table to eat.

Valentina replied to Aveline, [Auntie, I’m not afraid. I miss you.]

Aveline wrote back, [Okay then, but I might not be able to cook for you at the hotel.]

Valentina: [That’s okay, the food at Uncle’s hotel is delicious, and we can go to the back garden for cupcakes tonight.]

Seeing Aveline’s reply of “Okay,” Valentina told Xavier, “Auntie agreed.”

Xavier nodded. “Alright then. After I finish work this afternoon, I’ll drive with you to Mount Ardwood for the week- end.”

When it was time to leave, Brielle had something to do, so Xavier only took Valentina to Mount Ardwood.

Aveline, Jasmine, and Julian returned to the hotel from the construction site. At the entrance, they ran into Fiona’s as- sistant, Katie Wright.

Katie was waiting at the door for Aveline to come back. Seeing her, she immediately came over and said, “Josephine had the hotel manager pull the security footage of you splashing Courtney with milk in the buffet restaurant for her to see.”

“I suspect they probably made a copy.”

Jasmine frowned, “What are they trying to do?”

Aveline asked with a grim face, “Aren’t the police the only ones who can pull security footage?”

Katie gave a helpless smile, “I don’t know why they showed it to them. I wasn’t allowed into the security room.”

Aveline guessed Xavier must have pulled some strings for Josephine.

“They copied the footage, probably to see if they can use it to sue me.”

“Are they gone?”

Katie looked towards the hotel lobby, “Mr. Beltran just arrived. He’s in the lobby with Josephine, Jacob, and Court- ney.”

Aveline said calmly, “It’s fine. If they want to sue, let them. I only splashed the milk on her because I knew she was standing right next to me.”

After speaking, she walked towards the lobby.

Jasmine and Julian exchanged a look and quickly followed her.

Xavier, Josephine, and the others were talking in the sofa area. Valentina kept looking at the entrance, and when she saw Aveline come in, her eyes lit up and she immediately ran to her.

“Auntie.”

Aveline hugged Valentina, “Mm, you’re here. Are you tired?”

Valentina looked up at Aveline, “Not tired.

Auntie, I haven’t seen you for a few days, and I see you’ve gotten even prettier.”

Aveline smiled, gently pinching Valentina’s cheek, “I haven’t seen you for a few days, and your words have gotten even sweeter.”

Jasmine laughed, “What about Auntie Jasmine?”

Valentina looked at her, “Auntie Jasmine is also very pretty.”

Jasmine laughed, “That sounds a little forced.

What about Uncle Julian?”

Valentina looked at Julian, “Uncle Julian is handsome, but not as handsome as my uncle.”

Julian:

“T

Aveline said calmly, “Kids just think the people they’re close to are the best.”

“Kids always tell the truth.”

Xavier walked over, with Josephine following behind him.

Aveline coldly looked away and asked Valentina, “Where’s your mom?”

“Mom had something to do, so she’s not coming. It’s just me and my uncle.”

As soon as Valentina finished speaking, Josephine eagerly said, “Sister, why are you already out of the hospital? A concussion is no small thing. You should have stayed in the hospital for a few more days of observation, otherwise it’ll be troublesome if you faint again.”

Aveline gave her a cold look and said in a chilly voice, “Josephine, have you lost your memory? Didn’t you see me in the parking lot when I was discharged? Courtney even had Jacob come and block my car.”

Josephine’s face stiffened. She instinctively looked toward Xavier, stuttering a little, “Sis… Sister, what are you talk- ing about? I didn’t see you.

And my mom would never ask Dad to block your car. That’s so dangerous.”

Aveline scoffed, “I’ve been finding security footage quite useful lately. The hospital parking lot should have cameras. Why don’t we pull them up and see if there’s something wrong with your brain and you’ve lost your memory?”

Josephine immediately put on an aggrieved expression and deliberately took a step closer to Xavier, “Dar-”

The word had just left her mouth when she looked as if she’d remembered something, quickly raising a hand to cover her mouth, then looked at Xavier,
