Chapter 408

Xavier took a sip of his drink, swirling the golden liquid in his glass as he said calmly,

“Josephine is afraid I’ll suspect she’s colluding with Leona, so she sent Dylan to explain.”

Amy glanced at Xavier’s indifferent expression.

So Mr. Beltran had figured it out too.

“Mr. Beltran, are you saying Ms. Josephine knew the Heiress took Bryan to Dylan’s house?”

Xavier said, “No matter how good or trustworthy a friend is, you wouldn’t let her bring a complete stranger to stay at your house for a night, would you?”

“Besides, Leona would have told her. After all, Bryan is the witness who can prove she’s the one who saved my life.”

The logic was sound. Amy nodded.

Mr. Beltran must think Ms. Josephine knew Leona was taking Bryan to see the Patriarch.

Maybe Ms. Josephine was hoping the Patriarch would find out she was the one who really saved Mr. Beltran.

Mr. Beltran must be furious right now. He had talked to Ms. Josephine about this before, hoping she would keep it a secret, and she had agreed.

“Mr. Beltran, the Patriarch has already sent Barry to investigate what happened back then.”

Xavier didn’t say anything, just slowly drank his liquor. When he finished, he put down the glass and said,

“What happened back then does need to be investigated more thoroughly.”

Amy asked in surprise, “Mr. Beltran, you suspect Ms. Josephine…”

Back then, Mr. Beltran didn’t really believe Bryan’s story and kept trying to find that taxi driver. But then a doctor at the hospital said it was Josephine who had given him the blood transfusion.

Although Mr. Beltran has type AB blood and can’t receive large amounts of other blood types without a reaction, in an emergency, it was possible to accept any blood type.

But on that day, a major accident happened in Entora, and the hospital’s blood bank was running low. They prioritized the elderly and children. Coincidentally, Josephine had type AB blood. She couldn’t donate to other blood types, but she could donate to Mr. Beltran, who was also type AB.

Xavier looked up at her. “Just investigate it more thoroughly,”

The way Aveline acted just now, and the things she said, made him feel terrible.

He didn’t know if it was because he loved her too much, but a thought suddenly occurred to him. Maybe he had really wronged her. Maybe he had overlooked something back then.

Anyway, since the Patriarch wanted to investigate, he might as well look into it too. He wasn’t short on manpower, resources, or money.

Besides, Leona took Bryan to see the Patriarch, and Josephine had clearly helped her. That left a bad taste in his mouth.

“We have to find that taxi driver who took me to the hospital.”

Amy replied, “Yes, Mr. Beltran.”

Xavier stood up, walked to the liquor cabinet, opened a new bottle of whiskey, and poured himself another glass.

Amy watched and frowned. Drinking wasn’t good for his health, and Mr. Beltran usually drank very little. When he was in a bad mood, he’d have half a glass at most.

But this was his second glass tonight.

It seemed Mr. Beltran was in a very bad mood. She wondered if he’d had a big fight in his wife’s room earlier.

Mr. Beltran had ordered a reinvestigation of the past, so it must be related to what happened back then.

Aveline stood on the balcony of her room, a cold expression on her face as she gazed at the seemingly distant yet close Mount Ardwood.

She never thought that Xavier and the Zimmerman family would suspect her, and that it was all Josephine’s doing.

When did Josephine set this up? Could she have been planning it since the day of Xavier’s accident?

Josephine couldn’t have pulled that off. Courtney must have been the one who planned it.

How did they fake the evidence to convince a shrewd businessman like Xavier?

There was a major accident in Entora that day. The city was in chaos, and the hospitals were evi more frantic and chaotic. Aveline later recalled that even if she’d had her phone, she probably couldn’t have called for an ambulance.

Courtney is vicious and smart enough to use that opportunity to plot against her.

Aveline called Fiona. “How’s the investigation into Jacob transferring assets going?”

Fiona replied, “On the surface, he transferred some to Courtney. It doesn’t look like much, find out how much he moved secretly, you might have to file to divide the assets so we car investigate through legal channels.”
