Urging Him to Get a Divorce (Aveline and Xavier) novel Chapter 335

Chapter 335

Chapter 335

Claude felt like he was about to snap. He clenched his fists, struggling to keep his composure. “That… could your wife have misheard?”

Xavier glanced at Claude’s slightly twitching mouth, then at his clenched fist

“My wife is young. I’m sure her hearing is excellent.”

Hearing that, Claude felt as if he’d been pulled into a business negotiation.

This was exactly how Xavier operated in business negotiations, leaving his opponents defenseless and sweating.

He wasn’t overtly aggressive, but the effect was even more intimidating.

Xavier’s dark eyes were cool as his gaze returned to Claude’s face. “Give me one reason why you would do this behind my back.”

“Are you and Josephine very close?”

Claude was smart enough to have climbed to his current position. His mind raced, and he lowered his head, saying:

“Mr. Beltran, when you told me to buy that jewelry set for Ms. Josephine, I had no idea Rebecca had chosen it for your wife.”

Xavier demanded, “Didn’t you see the pictures?”

“I just glanced at them. I don’t know anything about women’s dresses and jewelry, so I didn’t pay much attention.”

“I’d already bought it for Ms. Josephine when Rebecca suddenly told me it was for your wife. I thought, Mr. Beltran, you’d already promised it to Ms. Josephine. If you backed out, you’d lose face.”

“Your wife is always so understanding. She probably wouldn’t mind and would be happy to pick something else.”

“And besides, Mr. Beltran, I genuinely think you treat Ms. Josephine very well.”

“You’ve given Ms. Josephine many expensive gifts before.”

Claude was gambling, betting that Xavier cared more about Josephine, that he valued her more

No, it was a fact that Xavier treated Josephine better. He didn’t even like Aveline.

Mr. Beltran must just be annoyed that he kept it from him and didn’t give him a heads-up.

However, as soon as the words left Claude’s mouth, he felt a chill wash over him from Xavier’s direction.

He couldn’t help but look up, only to meet a pair of frigid, dark eyes, seemingly frozen over, staring at him without a single blink.

A shiver ran through Claude.

Xavier saw this and laughed, as if finding it amusing that Claude was so afraid of him he was trembling.

To Claude, Mr. Beltran’s laugh was even more terrifying.

Xavier asked coldly, “Was the jewelry set delivered then?”

Claude knew he was asking if it had been delivered to Josephine, and he hesitated.

Because after he’d arranged it with the brand, he’d let Josephine pick it up herself. He honestly had no idea when she’d gone to get it.

“Mr. Beltran, I don’t know when Ms. Josephine went to pick it up.”

“So you never even thought to tell me?”

“Mr. Beltran, I…”

“Because you think Josephine is more important to me than my wife?”

Claude was at a loss for words.

Xavier stared at him coldly for a long moment. “Claude…”

“Yes, Mr. Beltran.”

“I admit, I treat Josephine well. But has there ever been a time I gave her something that she didn’t

ask for herself?”

“Has there ever been a single time I’ve given her a gift on my own initiative?”

Claude was speechless.

That was true No matter how expensive the gifts Mr. Beltran gave Josephine, she was always the one who asked for them

Xavier continued, “And has there ever been a time I’ve given Aveline something that she asked for herself”?”

Claude didn’t say anything.

But in his mind, he thought that Mr. Beltran rarely gave Aveline gifts, it was only on her birthday or Christmas, when he was obligated by the’s tradition.

You haven’t even asked what Aveline likes, have you.

But when Josephine asks for something, you just give it to her.

The commercial plaza’s ad should’ve gone to a seasoned director, but you gave it to Josephine, a student with no experience.

You even generously invested a billion for her to make a movie, like it was just a game.

And Dylan, a second-rate architect, you let him onto a major project like the amusement park just because Josephine introduced him.

If you don’t have a crush on Josephine, what other reason could there be?

Xavier didn’t know Claude was roasting him in his head; seeing him silent with his head down, he assumed he was admitting his mistake and reflecting.

“You’re smart, that’s how you got to your position. Did it ever occur to you that I might be nice to Josephine because she’s my wife’s sister?”
