Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 329

Chapter 329

Xavier stared at his phone screen, his dark eyes cold and blank

A moment later, he texted Aveline, Didn’t you see the birthday gift I sent you?

Aveline was busy and didn’t see the message until much later.

She thought Xavier had gone crazy and ignored him.

If he’d really sent her a gift, it’s not like she could pretend she didn’t see it.

Aveline didn’t reply, which Xavier expected, but it still bothered him.

Remembering Fiona accusing him of giving Josephine two birthday gifts, and mentioning some small diamond tiara he’d never even seen, he called Claude in and asked,

“I remember on February 18th, Josephine mentioned in the hotel cafe that it was her birthday. I had you go with her to a boutique to pick out a gift. What did she choose?”

Claude was startled, wondering why Mr. Beltran was suddenly asking about this.

He then started to suspect that Mr. Beltran knew he was in private contact with Josephine.

He answered cautiously, “Mr. Beltran, that was quite a while ago. I can’t recall off the top of my head. ”

“It was a piece of jewelry, I believe.”

Xavier asked. “Was it a small diamond tiara?”

Claude studied Xavier’s expression; it was neutral, he didn’t look angry, so he replied:

“I remember now. It was a small diamond tiara.”

“Mr. Beltran, Ms. Josephine wore that small diamond tiara on the day of the Patriarch’s birthday banquet.”

Hearing this, Xavier’s dark eyes narrowed, because he honestly couldn’t remember what jewelry Josephine had worn at the banquet.

That night, his mind had been on Aveline, furious that Fiona had dared to introduce men to his wife at the Patriarch’s birthday banquet.

Xavier looked up at Claude. “That diamond tiara, was it several million?”

Claude’s heart sank. Did Mr. Beltran think it cost too much?

No, that couldn’t be right. Mr. Beltran was always generous. Telling him to help Josephine pick a gift meant she could choose whatever she wanted, regardless of the price.

“Mr. Beltran, I didn’t ask the price. I just paid with the card.”

Xavier rubbed his forehead, annoyed.

Since he’d told Josephine to pick out a gift, he naturally wasn’t concerned about the price.

But women know the price of jewelry and are sensitive about it. It was no surprise that Aveline was angry, knowing he’d spent so much on Josephine.

Heh, and her? She didn’t say anything, didn’t make a scene, just had Fiona, her lawyer, hit him with passive-aggressive sarcasm.

Seeing Xavier look like he had a headache, Claude grew more uneasy, finding Mr. Beltran hard

What exactly was Mr. Beltran angry about?

Xavier looked at him and asked, “On the day of the birthday banquet, how much was the jewelry Rebecca picked for my wife?”

Claude had seen Xavier’s expense reports and remembered it clearly, replying, “A set of pearl jewelry, over a million.”

Xavier frowned slightly. “Only over a million?”

Claude hadn’t expected Xavier to think it was too cheap. He replied, “Your wife picked it herself. She probably just liked that set of pearls.”

Hearing that, Xavier thought to himself, Aveline likes pearls?

Isn’t Fiona the one who likes pearls?

On Fiona’s birthday, she had given her pearl accessories.

Xavier said to Claude, “You can go. Tell Rebecca to come in.”

Claude asked, “Mr. Beltran, what do you need Rebecca for? I can go tell her.

“Tell her to come in. I have something to ask her.”

Claude left, feeling uneasy. Mr. Beltran had suddenly asked about the jewelry from that night, and he was worried he would discover the ten-million-plus set Rebecca had picked for Aveline- the one he had deliberately not mentioned, which Mr. Beltran then bought for Josephine.

Claude walked over to Rebecca’s desk and said, “Mr. Beltran wants to see you.”

Rebecca nodded and stood up. “Did Mr. Beltran ask for me?”

Usually, Mr. Beltran gave orders to Claude, and then Claude would pass them on to the secretaries and assistants.

Claude looked at her. “Rebecca, Mr. Beltran is in a bad mood. For the Patriarch’s birthday banquet, that jewelry set worth over ten million you picked for Aveline… Mr. Beltran later bought

it for Ms. Josephine. I hope you won’t say anything about this.”

Rebecca was taken aback. “Not say anything?
