Urging Him to Get a Divorce (Aveline and Xavier) novel Chapter 562

Chapter 562

[If you can, find out which flight Aveline and Fiona are on. They’re also going to Kralville at three this afternoon. Book us on the same flight.]

Hearing his question, Aveline remembered that after her call with Fiona, she had seen a missed call and a message from Xavier, but she had ignored them.

When Xavier saw she wasn’t responding, he guessed she must have ignored his message and chuckled.

“You didn’t see the message, did you?”

“Did it not occur to you that it might be important?”

“What if I was asking for your help?”

Aveline said coolly, “Then you’d better hire a few more bodyguards to surround you, so you don’t end up dead when you ask for my help and I ignore you.”

Xavier looked at her and said, “There was a news report this morning saying you’re not on good terms with other architects. It claimed you framed one for stealing a design concept, and then I kicked them off the project team without any evidence.”

“There were other leaks, all damaging to you. They even revealed your real name and your relationship with Josephine.”

Aveline’s hands, which were packing clothes, froze. She turned to look at Xavier. “What the hell is going on?”

“It’s probably Dylan.”

“Aveline, what do you want me to do?

Release a statement? Sue Dylan for defamation?”

Aveline said irritably, “The person you hired caused this mess, and you’re asking me what to do?”

Xavier said, ” Yeah, it’s my fault.

…

Babe, whatever you want me to do, I’ll listen to you.”

Aveline’s face was cold, her voice icy, “Xavier, I’m divorcing you. Don’t call me that again. It makes me want to kick you.”

“We’re not in divorce proceedings.”

Aveline gave him a cold look.

Xavier had no choice but to add, “Well, not right now, anyway.”

Aveline went back to packing her clothes and said, “I’ll decide after I see the report.”

“Fine.

Are you really going to Crestmark’s Blossom Gala?

When the guests there find out who you are, they might…”

Xavier didn’t finish his sentence, but Aveline knew what he meant.

“I haven’t done anything wrong. Why should I be afraid of what people say?”

Xavier knew Aveline wouldn’t be persuaded, so even though he hadn’t planned on going, he had to go with her now. But he still tried to reason with her,

“Your foot just healed. Why go all that way for a meaningless party?”

“If you’re just curious, Sebastian will probably invite you again next year.

“Sebastian invites me every year. I can take you.”

Aveline said coolly, “You can go now. Stop chattering, you’re giving me a headache.”

“I’m having lunch here, and then I’m going to the airport with you.”

With that, Xavier turned and left.

Hearing this, Aveline couldn’t help but look up and glare at his retreating back.

She was busy packing and had no time to check the report online. After lunch, she had to rush to catch her flight.

So she decided to look at it later. It wasn’t something that could be resolved right away anyway.

Xavier went downstairs and called Amy, asking her to go to the Beltran’s mansion, pack a bag for him, and bring it over.

Around eleven–thirty, Collin and Paulina came home. Fiona arrived at the same time, and the three of them walked in together.

They were all surprised to see Xavier sitting in the living room.

Xavier stood up and greeted them, “Collin, Paulina.”

Collin didn’t see Aveline and wondered why Xavier was there, but he only said, “You’re here.”

Xavier replied, “After lunch, Aveline and I are going to Kralville for the Crestmark’s Blossom Gala tonight.”

The two of them had heard Aveline mention this, but she hadn’t said she was going with Xavier, only with Fiona.

Why the sudden change?

Fiona was also surprised and didn’t believe it was Aveline’s idea. She teased, “Is Mr. Beltran afraid to fly alone and wants some company?”

Faced with Fiona’s teasing, Xavier didn’t argue, just smiling faintly without a word.

Just then, Aveline came downstairs. She didn’t bother to look at Xavier and told her maternal grandparents they should have lunch now, as she and Fiona had a flight to catch.

Aveline didn’t invite him, but her grandparents certainly did, and they all went into the dining room together.

While they were eating, Amy arrived, and Paulina told Miranda to set another place at the table.
