Chapter 267
But just before she was about to call Aveline, she had expected Aveline to be happy, but it turned out Aveline was quite cold about it.
It was as if Aveline had poured a bucket of cold water on Mr. Beltran’s enthusiasm.
Rebecca didn’t dare say more and left the office to send the photos to Xavier.
After receiving dozens of photos, Xavier looked through the gowns one by one, but couldn’t be bothered to look at the jewelry since he didn’t know anything about it anyway, and then sent them to Aveline.
And so, in the project site office at Mount Ardwood, Aveline’s phone on the desk kept buzzing with message notifications.
Jasmine and Julian looked over at her.
Jasmine was surprised, “Who’s that, spamming you with messages?”
Aveline thought of her maternal grandparents and quickly picked up her phone to check.
When she saw they were from Xavier, her face immediately turned cold. Only her ingrained good manners kept her from cursing out loud.
That guy, he made her think something had happened to her maternal grandparents.
But she was just worrying for nothing. If something had really happened to her maternal grandparents, Miranda would have called her, not sent a stream of messages.
Looking at the photos of the gowns, Aveline knew what this was about.
She put down her phone, ignoring Xavier,
Jasmine asked curiously, “You look so upset. It’s not Xavier, is it?”
Julian was also looking at Aveline, seemingly curious as well.
Aveline said flatly, “It’s some dim–witted idiot.”
Jasmine and Julian exchanged a look, both of them confused.

Wasn’t it Xavier?
Or had Aveline given Xavier the nickname ‘dim–witted idiot“?
The phone buzzed for a while longer, then finally fell silent.
Aveline focused on her work, with no intention of looking at it at all.

At the Sutton family home, Josephine’s face soured after receiving a message from Claude Steele. She asked Courtney,
“Mom, what’s Xav thinking?
Why is he suddenly being so nice to Aveline?”
Courtney asked, “Hasn’t he bought Aveline expensive things before?”
Josephine thought for a moment, “I don’t think so.
Hmph, if he had, Aveline would’ve been bragging about it already.”
Courtney chuckled, “He had his secretary do it. It’s obvious an elder in the family made him, and he had no choice.”
“Ask Claude if he can send you the photos of those gowns and jewelry.”
Josephine was confused, “Mom, what are you up to?”
“Just do as I say and contact Claude right away.”
After getting the message, Claude hesitated for a moment, but decided he should keep helping Josephine, as it was obvious Mr. Beltran liked her.
After all, he had seen the divorce papers.
So he went to Rebecca to ask for the photos.
Rebecca was surprised, “Leo, what do you want those photos for?”
“Just admiring the fashion. I’m curious to see how good such expensive gowns and jewelry actually look.”
Rebecca smiled. It wasn’t a big deal, so she sent the photos to Claude,
Then Claude immediately forwarded them to Josephine.
