Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276

As for the small diamond tiara, it was probably also a gift from Xavier.

Jasmine suddenly realized it too and frowned. “Josephine couldn’t possibly have the pull to buy the set reserved by Xavier’s secretary. Unless…”

She didn’t finish her sentence, just cursed, “This is too much.”

Meanwhile, Xavier had just finished speaking with Sebastian and ran into two important political guests. He was exchanging pleasantries, about to lead them to Rupert, when Gerald walked in with Josephine.

His ink–black eyes instantly hardened, fixed on Gerald and Josephine.

Josephine was pleased with her outfit tonight. Seeing Xavier’s gaze, she felt smug, and her smile blossomed like a flower.

“Xav, good evening.”

Xavier glanced at her and gave a slight nod. “Mm, good evening.”

Then his gaze shifted to Gerald, giving him a cold, indifferent glance.

Then, he composed his expression and invited the two political tycoons over to see Rupert.

Gerald’s heart skipped a beat. He wondered if Xavier was unhappy that he’d brought Josephine.

He immediately dismissed the thought, because Xavier had clearly been captivated by Josephine’s stunning beauty; he’d been staring at her just now.

Besides, Xavier had also greeted Josephine.

He probably blamed him for bringing Josephine without telling him in advance.

Or maybe Xavier was jealous that Josephine showed up as his date.

The more Gerald thought about it, the more amusing he found it, and he smiled.

Fiona’s face was grim the moment Josephine entered. Seeing Gerald smile, she scoffed, “Mr. Henderson, your girlfriend is really stealing the show. It’s no exaggeration to call her a socialite fluttering about.”

Gerald’s face tensed up, and he glared at Fiona. “Laura, don’t misunderstand. Ms. Sutton isn’t my girlfriend.”

He had to explain. It would be a problem if any guests overheard and got the wrong idea.

Josephine was supposed to marry Xavier and become the official Mrs. Beltran.

Fiona let out a soft laugh. “Oh, so she’s not your girlfriend.

That makes sense. If she were your girlfriend, your parents would beat you for it.”

Getting close to the other woman like that, how could his parents not beat him?

Gerald snapped, “Mr. Harmon, you need to control her. She’s always running her mouth.”

“Josie, let’s go. We’re going to the Patriarch’s birthday celebration.”

Aveline saw Xavier bringing over two political figures, so she said to Rupert:

“Some important guests have arrived, Patriarch. We’ll take our leave for now.”

Rupert nodded. “Yes, go get something to eat with your colleagues.”

Aveline then walked away with Jasmine and Julian.

Xavier looked over at her. Their eyes met for a moment, and they both coolly looked away at

almost the same time.

While the two political figures were wishing Rupert a happy birthday, Josephine and Gerald arrived.

Xavier’s expression was indifferent as he turned around. “Gerald, why don’t you take Josephine to get something to eat.”

Josephine smiled. “Xav, I’m not hungry. I’d like to wish the Patriarch a happy birthday first.”

With that, she stepped forward and smiled at Rupert:

“Keith, I wish you happiness and good health.”

Gerald noticed Xavier’s expression was off. On second thought, he figured Rupert probably didn’t like Josephine, and Xavier was worried she’d be slighted.
