Chapter 316
“Also, Xavier might have bought it from Alfred and given it to Josephine.”
Jasmine’s eyes widened in shock. “Xavier should have recognized your mom’s signature.”
Aveline felt drained. She walked a few steps to the edge of the bed and sat down.
How could Xavier do something so cruel to her.
Did he think she would never find out?
She thought back to dinner at Alfred’s house that night, to what he’d said about the painting
Alfred must have sold the painting and was too embarrassed to say it was her mother’s, while Xavier played dumb and didn’t tell her anything.
Hah, he was planning to give it to Josephine, so of course he wouldn’t tell her.
Aveline felt a mix of hurt and anger. She picked up her phone and called Xavier.
Jasmine saw how awful she looked and was worried. When she saw her making a call, she quickly asked, “Who are you calling?”
“That bastard.”
A black Bentley pulled into the front courtyard of the Beltran’s mansion. Once it stopped. Xavier got out and headed for the house.
Rupert, Lauren, and Valentina were sitting in the living room watching TV.
Lauren was happy to see Xavier was back and quickly asked, “Have you eaten dinner yet?”
Valentina happily ran over to Xavier, wrapping her arms around his leg. “Uncle.”
Rupert gave him a cold, indifferent look and said nothing, as if he were a debt collector.
Xavier patted Valentina’s head and replied to Lauren, “Haven’t eaten yet.
་་
Lauren was startled, “How have you not eaten dinner yet? You’ll ruin your stomach.”

Then she quickly got up to call the butler to get Xavier something to eat
Xavier sat on the sofa holding Valentina and asked her, “Don’t you go to school?”
Valentina replied. “I do. Uncle. You can take me to school tomorrow.
Xavier smiled, “Sure, Uncle will take you to school tomorrow.
Rupert snorted, “No one’s home, so you came running here, is that it?”
Xavier smiled faintly and said nothing.
Lauren came back, heard him, and said with displeasure, “Dad, Xavier came back to see you. Why are you giving him such a hard time?”
“Is it his fault?
It’s Aveline’s fault.”
Just then, Xavier’s phone rang. He took it out of his pocket and froze when he saw it was a call from Aveline.
It was so unexpected; she was actually calling him first.
Valentina, in his arms, also saw the caller ID “Aveline” and immediately shouted:
“Uncle, Auntie is calling you.”
Rupert and Lauren looked at Xavier.
“Uncle, hurry up and answer.”
Xavier put Valentina aside, stood up, and answered the phone, “Hello.”
As he spoke, he walked toward the first–floor living room. Since Aveline was calling him, it was probably about the divorce, and he was worried Rupert and Lauren would overhear.
“Xavier, you bastard, you have no conscience. After all the things you’ve done to wrong me, how dare you show your face and pretend you like me.”
“I must have been blind to fall in love with someone like you.”
After saying that, Aveline hung up before Xavier could react.
The call was just to curse Xavier out.

Xavier stopped in his tracks, stunned, before he even reached the living room
He brought the phone screen to his eyes, frowning slightly
All the things I’ve done to wrong her?
What the hell is this?

She should at least tell me what it is. Cursing me out and then hanging up, like it’s some kind of
game.
