Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 172

Chapter 172

It was hard to tell if he was angry. He just gave Aveline a deep look, then turned and left without a word.

Aveline slammed the door shut with a “click” and locked it, afraid Xavier would come in again for no reason.

Lately, he’d been acting crazy. His behavior was too strange, as if he actually cared about her.

But Aveline could tell the difference between sincerity and pretense. He wasn’t being sincere at all. She didn’t know if he was testing her or just putting on a show.

Maybe Rupert had said something to him.

Maybe he thought that if he was nicer to her, she would put in a good word for him with Rupert, so that after the di- vorce, Rupert would drop his prejudice and accept his marriage to Josephine.

Xavier had no feelings for her at all. He was forcing it so much that it just made her uncomfortable.

He could forget about her cooperating with him.

Aveline sat on the toilet. Afterward, she brushed her teeth and washed her face.

She wanted to take a shower but was worried it might make her dizziness worse. She decided it was better to ask the doctor first.

She opened the bathroom door and saw Xavier leaning against the opposite wall, his arms crossed over his chest, his eyes lowered.

Hearing the noise, he looked up at her. “All washed up?”

Aveline ignored him and walked past coldly.

Xavier didn’t say anything more and walked into the bathroom.

Aveline remembered there was only one toothbrush and one cup inside, so she quickly turned back. Sure enough, she saw Xavier had already picked up that toothbrush.

She immediately yelled at him, “Why are you taking my toothbrush? Even if you’re not grossed out, I am.” Xavier turned to look at her. “There’s only one toothbrush. What’s there to be grossed out about? We’re married.” “The moment I asked for a divorce, we stopped being husband and wife. All that’s left is the paperwork.” Xavier smiled. “I used this toothbrush last night, and you just used it too. So, tell me, can I use it now or not?”

Aveline didn’t know if he was telling the truth or not, but there really was only one toothbrush in the bathroom. If he had brushed his teeth last night, he must have used it.

Chapter 172

Aveline bit her lip in anger. “Xavier, you’re sick.”

After saying that, she turned and walked away.

She couldn’t use that toothbrush anymore.

Behind her, Xavier said lightly, “I’m not the one who hit my head.”

Aveline clenched her fists.

Xavier was definitely trying to provoke her on purpose.

If she got so angry she had a brain hemorrhage and dropped dead, he could get rid of his original wife without split- ting the assets. Then he would definitely marry someone else, and Rupert would compromise and let Josephine into the family.

Aveline knew she was overthinking, but Xavier’s strange behavior made her unable to stop these wild guesses. She looked for her bag and phone but couldn’t find them anywhere. Then she saw a closet and opened it to look.

Her purse was hanging in the closet.

She took it out and pulled her phone from the purse.

There were several missed calls and messages.
