Urging Him to Get a Divorce (Aveline and Xavier) novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317

After a moment. Xavier sent her a text.

You called me out of the blue just to yell at me. You have to at least tell me what this is about, right?]

In her hotel room, Aveline glanced at the message with a cold expression.

Of course she wasn’t going to reply. He didn’t know what he’d done to wrong her? What was he pretending for?

Why doesn’t he just go be the male lead in the movie directed by Ms. Sutton.

Jasmine sat next to Aveline, putting an arm around her shoulder. “Josephine is quite something.”

From that short sentence, Aveline understood what Jasmine meant.

Because Courtney is formidable, the daughter she raised is naturally formidable too.

That mother–daughter pair is vicious enough to use any trick in the book for wealth and status.

They aren’t even interested in art, so why do they have to have her mother’s painting?

It’s purely to spite her.

Xavier waited for a while. Seeing no reply, he sent another message.

[Aveline, you have to tell me what’s wrong. Don’t make me guess, I can’t figure it out.]

[It’s late at night. You don’t expect me to drive to Mount Ardwood to find you right now, do you?]

Aveline still ignored him and went to put on her skincare products. Jasmine stood behind her, blow–drying her hair.

Xavier, annoyed at not getting her reply in the living room of the Beltran’s mansion, kicked the

sofa.

Then he called Fiona.

Fiona was at home, binge–watching a show on her tablet. When she saw Xavier’s call, she blinked, wondering what he wanted.

She was Aveline’s lawyer, so she had to take the call in case it was something important

So she answered, “Couldn’t this wait until morning? Why are you bothering me so late at night?”

“Or are you telling me I can’t see the security footage anymore?”

Xavier said coldly, “Didn’t I agree to let you see the security footage today?”

Fiona snorted. “The manager told me to come back tomorrow, saying the relevant staff wasn’t in today.”

“Are you telling me you’re not going to swap it out?”

Xavier replied, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely show you the complete, unaltered footage.”

“So, did Aveline call and chew me out just now because you didn’t get to see the footage today?”

Fiona was surprised. “Aveline called and chewed you out?”

“Then you must have deserved it.

She should have chewed you out a long time ago. Today is already too late.”

Hearing this, Xavier knew Fiona didn’t know what was going on either, so he said:

“Aveline isn’t answering my calls or replying to my texts. Ask her what on earth happened.”

Fiona was also curious why Aveline would proactively call and chew out Xavier, but she just scoffed.

“There are plenty of things you deserve to be chewed out for.”

Xavier said coldly, “You’re a lawyer. Can you act like one?”

“Since Aveline is filing for divorce, and she’s not communicating with me properly, you, as her lawyer, have to communicate properly for her.”

“Find out what’s going on and get back to me. I’m busy. I don’t want to drive all the way to Mount Ardwood to find her in the middle of the night.”

After saying that, Xavier hung up.

Fiona pouted and muttered, “Serves you right. You should have treated Aveline better before.”

She called Aveline.

By this time, Jasmine had already returned to her room, and Aveline was just about to go to bed.

Seeing Fiona’s call, she was taken aback, wondering why she would call instead of just texting if she had something to say

Puzzled, Aveline answered, “Hello, Fiona.”

“Did you call Xavier and chew him out?”

Aveline’s lips curved into a sneer. “He told you?”

That’s just great. He had to call her lawyer to complain about her.

“So petty.”

Hearing this, Fiona burst out laughing. “He sounded pretty mad. What did you chew him out for?”

Aveline told her about the painting.

After hearing the story, Fiona started cursing, then she said, “You’re still too kind, just calling to chew him out a bit. If it were me, I would have stormed into his house and kicked him a few

times.”

“That’s just too much.”

“But from what he said, it sounds like he doesn’t know that’s why you chewed him out.‘

Aveline replied, “That’s even more infuriating. He thinks there’s nothing wrong with what he did.

“So, should I tell him?
