Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 265

Courtney had a bad feeling. They probably wouldn’t be able to go to Rupert’s birthday banquet tomorrow night.

She was planning on using this chance for her and Josephine to get on good terms with Rupert and Lauren. They al- ready had their outfits and jewelry ready.

“Then hurry up and ask Xavier why your dad didn’t get an invitation.”

Josephine hesitated. She had a feeling he was getting annoyed with her for always asking him to help Benjamin.

Besides, he’d hung up on her a few times.

Knowing her own daughter, Courtney nudged Josephine.

“What’s there to be afraid of? Xavier treats you so well. He won’t actually be mad at you.”

“Didn’t I teach you? With men, if you become distant, they’ll stop caring. You have to stay close to him, make him al- ways remember you.”

Josephine nodded, took out her phone, and called Xavier.

Right then, Xavier was having lunch at the Beltran’s mansion. His phone rang, he glanced at it, and hung up.

He couldn’t answer that call in front of Rupert. After all, the Patriarch didn’t care for Josephine.

He figured it was about Benjamin again and decided to ignore it, or deal with it after he finished eating.

Josephine was shocked that Xavier had hung up on her again. She looked at Courtney.

Courtney thought for a moment, “Have you done anything to make him unhappy recently?”

“Other than asking him to help Benjamin, nothing else,” Josephine replied.

“Asking him to help Benjamin shows you value family and that you’re kind, not heartless like Aveline. Even if he didn’t want to help, he should appreciate that about you, that you have a good heart.”

“He’s probably busy. Text him.”

So, Josephine typed, 【darling,]

She realized she couldn’t send that word. Xavier had warned her this morning, so she quickly deleted it.

[Xav, are you busy?]

[My dad didn’t receive an invitation to the Patriarch’s birthday banquet, but he wants to go wish him a happy birthday. He’s already prepared a gift.]

Chapter 265

Xavier’s phone, which was on the dining table, went off again. Rupert glanced at him.

“So busy you can’t even cat a proper meal?

Just go back to the office after you eat. You don’t need to hang around here.”

Lauren quickly said, “Dad, Xavier manages a huge corporation. Of course, people need him all the time.”

“You have to let him take a nap after lunch before he goes back to the office.”

Then, with a displeased look, Lauren said, “That Aveline… honestly. As a wife, she’s not the least bit considerate. She has Xavier running all over the place, making things so hard for him.”

Xavier read the message and said calmly, “It’s the car that’s running, not me. Mom, you don’t have to worry about

me.”

Leona shot Xavier a disdainful look, thinking he was taking Aveline’s side in front of Rupert,

“Aveline has a car too. Why doesn’t she use it?”

Xavier gave Leona a cold glance, said nothing, and looked down to reply to a message.

[Rupert invited your sister’s maternal grandparents.]

Although Christopher and Mr. Li weren’t coming tomorrow night, the invitations had been delivered, and with this re- ply, Josephine should get the message.

Josephine saw the reply and showed it to her mom.

Courtney scoffed, “I knew it was Aveline’s doing. She’s the one who stopped the from inviting your dad.”

“Then what do we do?”

Courtney thought for a moment, a smug smile spreading across her face as she got a great idea.

“It doesn’t matter if your dad and I can’t go, you have to.”
