Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 338

Chapter 338

When she moved out of Winslow Heights, she had left in a hurry, only packing the things she was using on the bathroom counter. She had indeed forgotten the items in the cabinet, so she never opened it to look.

But she didn’t really believe Xavier would surprise her, because he never had before.

Before her mother passed away, she used to throw birthday parties and would always invite Xavier, so he had to bring a gift when he came.

After her mother died, she hadn’t held a birthday party for the past two years. On her birthday the year they got engaged, she remembered it clearly. Xavier had walked into the dining room for dinner, handed her a box, and said flatly:

“Birthday present.”

She was very happy at the time, but restrained herself from opening it right away.

That night in her bedroom, she opened it and saw a pair of earrings. They were pretty, but not from the brand she liked.

She made a special trip to the study to find him, telling him she liked the earrings and joking that it would have been even better if they were from her favorite brand.

Xavier was reading. He glanced up at her coolly, said nothing, and then looked back down at his book.

The only other holiday Xavier would give her a gift for was Christmas, because Lauren would have all the children come back to the Beltran’s mansion for dinner on Christmas Eve, and everyone was expected to prepare gifts.

That’s why Aveline felt it was impossible for Xavier to have prepared such a surprise for her birthday this year.

In the afternoon, Simon contacted Aveline, saying his team would be at Mount Ardwood tomorrow. They would have lunch together, followed by a coordination meeting in the afternoon.

Aveline had already discussed it with Jasmine and Julian. With the theme park project starting, she and Jasmine would travel back and forth, while Julian would stay behind to manage the Crestmark project.

Julian figured that since construction hadn’t started at the theme park yet. Aveline and Jasmine would mainly be analyzing the site and drafting designs. It wasn’t like the Crestmark project, which required supervising on-site under the sun and wind. The two women wouldn’t have it as tough, so he agreed.

Gerald found out from Josephine that Xavier had replaced Claude Steele, his special assistant of many years. He was shocked and immediately called Xavier.

Xavier was in a meeting and rejected the call.

Gerald had no choice but to send a text, [Are you busy?]

“Why did you replace Claude?”

“How could you believe Aveline? You know she’s a liar.

“She even lied about saving you. She could lie without batting an eye to get rid of an assistant who’s loyal to you.”

“Xavier, don’t be fooled. You’re way too tolerant of Aveline.”

Xavier didn’t see these messages until he got back to his office after a meeting.

With a cold expression, he asked Gerald, “How did you find out?”

“Did Claude tell you?”

When Gerald got the reply, he realized he’d been impulsive. Now it was hard to explain.
