Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 312

Chapter 312

“Just wait a little longer. As soon as he and Aveline are divorced, you and Xavier can be together officially ”

“But, just in case, isn’t the Mount Ardwood Theme Park project launching this week? We need to have your cousin cause some trouble for Aveline,”

“It would be best if we can get her kicked off that project.”

“Even though Xavier told you to contact Claude Steele if you need anything, he never explicitly said you couldn’t contact him. And even if he did, so what? Just be clingy, act cute, play the victim. He’s not going to kick you out. He’ll just feel sorry for you.”

Josephine nodded, taking the advice.

Courtney patted Josephine’s head. “Don’t worry, Mom will help you. Hmph, I ruined Bethany, so of course I can ruin her daughter.”

As she spoke, a venomous look appeared in Courtney’s eyes.

The next day, even though it was Monday, Aveline saw that everything at the construction site was going smoothly and didn’t need their supervision. So, after discussing it with Jasmine and Julian, they decided to take the day off.

But Aveline still got up in the morning and went for a run.

Afterward, she took a shower, had breakfast, and for a change, turned on the TV

Around nine o’clock, Fiona called, and Aveline quickly answered.

“Aveline, the petition has been filed.”

Hearing this, Aveline was at a loss for words for a moment, her feelings a complicated mix.

She was relieved to have finally reached this point, yet sad about a relationship she had invested

so much in.

“Aveline, why aren’t you saying anything?

You’re not having second thoughts, are you?”

Aveline snapped back to reality, shaking her head to clear the images of the past, and replied

“No. I’m just feeling a little emotional.

“Emotional about what? It’s just a divorce.

Let me tell you, when I was a legal intern, I worked on a few divorce cases with my mentor. At first, they were all a bit hesitant or anxious, but once it was really over, after a while, every single one of them felt like they had a new lease on life.”

“And for the few who made a mistake, they can always get back together.”

Aveline chuckled, “You make getting married and divorced sound like playing house.”

“Well, it is. It’s not a matter of life and death.”

“There’s something else. I ran into Felix at the courthouse.”

Aveline thought the name sounded familiar. “Who?”

“The Beltran Group’s top–tier, go–to lawyer. You don’t know him?”

“I think I’ve heard the name before.”

Fiona replied, “Then you probably heard it from Xavier or Rupert.”

“Felix is a very formidable lawyer. In the legal circles of the Twin Cities, he’s known as a tycoon.

My brother sometimes hires him to handle tricky legal issues.”

“And that goes double for the. Rupert and the late Chairman were very close to him. But nowadays, Xavier usually uses Gerald. Unless it’s something major, he rarely calls on Felix.”

Aveline picked up on what she was implying. “You mean…”

“Heh, he asked me what I was doing at the courthouse. I told him I was filing a divorce petition. He immediately asked if it was for Xavier. I said yes, and then he just smiled, walked away, and went into a judge’s office.”

“Anyway, it just felt weird to me. Don’t tell me Xavier hired Felix for the divorce case.”

Aveline’s expression turned grave. “Fiona, if it’s this lawyer, will it be very difficult?”

Fiona sighed. “If it’s Felix, he’ll definitely help Xavier fight for the best possible outcome in the

asset division.”
