Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 314

Chapter 314

Felix drank half a cup of tea, put the cup down, and looked at Xavier.

“You didn’t tell the Patriarch?”

Xavier said lightly, “He knows Aveline is causing a scene about the divorce, but it’s best not to tell him she’s filed a lawsuit. It would just upset him.”

Felix gave Xavier a searching look. “You know, I remember when you got engaged a year ago, you told me you liked this girl. How did it get to this point just two or three months after getting the marriage certificate?”

Xavier was silent.

Few people knew that Aveline had deceived him, and Felix was not one of them.

If Felix knew, he would definitely tell the Patriarch.

Felix shook his head with a small sigh, then said, “I’ve already handled things at the courthouse for you. They’ll hold off on it for a while. If Fiona’s side finds out we’ve stalled the case, we’ll proceed quietly and try to keep it under wraps.”

Xavier nodded.

Seeing his somber mood, Felix took a sip of tea and asked, “You don’t want a divorce?”

“Right.”

“I actually handled a divorce case once. Do you know how many years the lawsuit lasted?”

Xavier smiled faintly. “To have hired you for a divorce case, they must have been important people, right?”

Felix snorted. “You hired me too, didn’t you? Instead of trusting that kid, Gerald.”

“That case dragged on for almost ten years, mainly because they couldn’t agree on the division of assets. One side kept insisting they still had feelings and the relationship wasn’t broken, so the court wouldn’t grant the divorce.”

“You say Aveline doesn’t want money, so you’d better hope she has nothing on you.”

Just then, Claude knocked and came in again, looking troubled. “Mr. Beltran, the hotel manager called. He said Fiona wants to request the security footage.”

“She said she wants to see the entire year’s worth, and she wants to start with February 18th of this year.”

Felix frowned, looking at Xavier. “The hotel footage?

Xavier, you…”

Xavier answered him, “It’s fine. Let her see it.”

Then he asked Claude in return, “February 18th?”

That was Aveline’s birthday, and he happened to have urgent business abroad.

“Yes, Mr. Beltran.”

Xavier lowered his gaze, thought about what happened that day, and then smiled.

“Let her see it. It’s fine. But if she wants to copy it, tell her she has to go through legal procedures because it involves the privacy of other guests.”

Claude was surprised that Xavier would agree, but he didn’t dare ask further. “Understood, Mr. Beltran.”

After Claude Steele left, Felix stared at Xavier and asked, “Are you sure you’re okay?”

“Aveline’s having her lawyer check the hotel security footage. That must mean you did something to her at the hotel. She knows, and she’s got something on you now.

Xavier smiled, picked up his cup, and drank his tea, looking calm.

“Ruth Chapman, if I’d done something to wrong her, that would mean I don’t like her. And if I don’t like her, why wouldn’t I just end it instead of dragging out the divorce?”

Felix looked at him, “That’s for the best,

you know the Patriarch can’t stand that kind of thing.”

Outside the office, after replying to the hotel manager, Claude Steele hesitated in his seat.

In the end, he messaged Josephine, telling her that Fiona was requesting the hotel’s security footage.
