Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 295

But Fiona was more interested in something else, asking, “Did you really knee Xavier in the stomach?”

Aveline said helplessly, “I’m asking you something serious.”

Fiona laughed. “Hitting him counts as serious business, you know.”

“But Xavier has been building his body up to be tall and strong since he was a kid. No matter how a delicate woman like you hits him, it’ll just feel like a scratch to him.‘

Aveline said irritably, “It’s not like I’m a violent person who’s always trying to hit him. He just pissed me off, so I acted on impulse.”

“Let’s get to the real issue. Do you think we should get the security footage?”

“Xavier did say I could pull it whenever I want. He said I could even check the whole year’s worth.”

Fiona replied, “Then let’s go check it out.”

“But I have a feeling that since he’s so confident about it, we probably won’t find anything.”

Aveline frowned slightly. “But that day, you sent me that photo of him and Josephine in front of the elevator at the Beltran Hotel. After that, I went to find him, and he came out of the presidential suite…”

At this point, Aveline felt a knot in her stomach. She couldn’t bring herself to say that she saw him come out wearing a bathrobe.

After a pause, she continued, “Josephine was in the room. I heard her voice.”

Fiona and Jasmine could tell Aveline was upset and looked over at her.

Aveline gripped the steering wheel with both hands, staring straight at the road ahead.

Fiona said in a comforting tone, “Then let’s check that day’s footage first, and then we can decide if we should check other times.

“I’m your lawyer. I’ll handle the negotiations. You don’t have to watch the footage yourself.”

Aveline nodded. “Okay. With you helping me, I’m not worried.”

“If my grandpa Collin’s talk with Rupert doesn’t go well, my only option is to sue. In that case, we might need this footage as evidence.”

It was better to have Fiona watch it for her. She really didn’t want to see Xavier and Josephine going in and out of the hotel, recalling the scenes from the past that had caused her so much pain.

Back at the hotel, Fiona and Sebastian went to the front desk in the lobby to get a room, while Aveline, Jasmine, and Julian went back to their room to rest first.

Aveline opened the door to her room and immediately relaxed, shrugging her shoulders to ease the tension in her neck as she walked inside.

Out of the corner of her eye, she sensed someone sitting on the sofa. She jumped with a gasp, dropping her purse.

Thinking her eyes were playing tricks on her, she looked again and saw Xavier sitting on the sofa, his dark, cool eyes watching her.

“Damn it, how did you get in here?”

Xavier said flatly, “I walked in.”

Aveline was furious. “Who opened the door for you?

The hotel manager, right?

I’m going to sue this hotel.”

As she spoke, she turned to go argue with the manager.

Xavier said calmly, “I told him we’re a married couple. Of course he opened the door for me.

“It’s useless to call the cops. You can talk until you’re blue in the face, but as long as I show our marriage certificate, the police will just think you’re having a spat with me.”

Aveline stopped and turned back to glare at him coldly. “What are you doing here?”

Then, because she was startled and so angry, she blurted out without thinking, “Couldn’t you have just called or texted if you needed something?”

Xavier let out a soft laugh, teasing her, “Yeah, why couldn’t I have just called or texted?”

The moment the words left her mouth, Aveline knew she shouldn’t have said that. After all, she never answered his calls or replied to his texts.

But she said confidently, “If it were something important, I would’ve texted back. The problem is, all your texts are meaningless.”

Xavier asked coldly, “What’s an important matter to you?
