Countdown to My Divorce (Rachel and William) novel Chapter 639

Chapter 639

Tyler’s gaze turned sharp, and he cut Xavier off mid–sentence.

“Don’t you have anything better to do lately?”

Xavier, clearly annoyed, waved him off impatiently. “Go stand over there. Don’t get in the way while we’re talking.”

He eagerly grabbed Dr. Frank by the shoulders. “What’s your name, doctor?”

“I’m Defino Frank.”

When Defino Frank said it out loud, he looked a little embarrassed.

Xavier froze for a second. This guy was definitely frank with his words. Realizing his reaction wasn’t very polite, Xavier quickly forced a smile. “Your name is definitely fitting.”

Defino chuckled awkwardly. “My mother picked it. She wanted me to grow up brave and to always speak my mind, because I was really timid as a kid.”

Xavier seized the chance to smooth things over. “I see. Well, why don’t we step outside and talk? No need to disturb them here.”

Defino didn’t refuse. In fact, he nodded eagerly.

“Sure, sure, let’s go.”

With their arms around each other’s shoulders, the two of them walked out of the ward. Tyler and Yale were left dumbfounded, while Sasha was completely thrown off.

Not long after, Sasha realized that if she stuck around any longer, she would be in trouble. After all, she hadn’t actually had Frank forge anything yet. Technically, Tyler couldn’t pin her down. Seizing the moment, she slipped away before anyone could stop her.

Once Tyler got the full picture, he told Xavier to keep a closer eye on Jim.

By then, they had already dug into Defino’s background.

“Turns out, Dr. Frank said Sasha and Yvette brought him in. Their whole purpose was to determine if Jim has any kind of mental illness. If he does, they’d have grounds to overturn his will and rewrite it.”

Tyler’s brows furrowed, a sense of unease creeping in his chest. “How is Jim’s mental state, then?”

“Dr. Frank swore on his decades of medical practice that Jim really does have psychological issues. If he’s tested right now, it will definitely come back showing he’s not of sound mind.”

Tyler stroked his chin, his eyes narrowing. “And how much stock do you put in Dr. Frank’s words?”

Xavier thought carefully. “Based on my own judgment, I’d say there’s a seventy or eighty percent chance he’s right.”

Tyler gave him a sharp look, surprised at the response. Xavier was usually cautious. If even he was saying that, then maybe Defino wasn’t bluffing. If Jim really was diagnosed as mentally unstable, this was going to be a serious problem.

Just then, Yale walked over, looking excited. “Mr. Hunt, there’s something I need to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“Our company just got a huge order! They specifically requested to work with us, and they’re pushing to sign the contract as soon as possible.”

“Have you reviewed the proposal yet?”
