“But I thought you couldn’t announce your marriage yet?”
Xavier looked down, thinking for a moment. “Then just say she’s a relative of the by marriage.”
If Marcus told people Josephine was a relative, Aveline would definitely be furious.
As a compromise, he’d just say she was a relative by marriage.
After all, he couldn’t tell Marcus that Josephine was the one who had saved his life.
Marcus nodded. “That makes sense.
“What’s going on with you and Aveline? I heard from your sister that she’s asking for a divorce?”
Xavier gave him a cold look. “Didn’t my sister also try to divorce you?”
Marcus was speechless.
Just then, the private dining room door opened, and a young, flashily dressed woman peeked her head out.
“Alex Prevost, what took you so long in the restroom?”
The woman spoke in a cloying, flirtatious tone and shot Marcus a seductive glance.
Xavier’s dark eyes turned icy.
Marcus noticed his look and quickly said, “It can’t be helped. These kinds of dinners are unavoidable. You can’t tell your sister, you know how jealous she gets.”
“Alright, that’s enough talk. I’m going back in.”
With a deep look in his eyes, Xavier watched Marcus return to the private dining room. He nodded to Ryan, who was standing in the distance, and went to his own private dining room.
That evening, after her post-dinner walk, Aveline returned to her room, took a shower, and sat on the sofa to read a book.

He was holding a bouquet of red roses in one hand and a beautifully wrapped gift box in the other, smiling.
“Aveline, these flowers and this gift are for you.”
Aveline’s expression darkened slightly. “Who sent them?”
The manager smiled and said, “They came from a flower shop. They only said they were for you,
not who sent them.
If you take them inside and check for a card, you’ll know.”
Aveline was taken aback for a moment, wondering if it wasn’t Xavier who had him deliver it.
“Thank you.”
She took the flowers and the gift box, turned around, closed the door, and went back into her
room.
There was no card in the bouquet, so Aveline unwrapped the gift box.
Inside was a small, red velvet box from her favorite jewelry brand.
Aveline had a feeling that Xavier had the manager deliver it and told him to keep it a secret from her so she wouldn’t refuse it.
Because besides him, no one would randomly send her such an expensive gift when it wasn’t a holiday.
Aveline opened the box with a cold expression. Inside was a card and a pair of exquisite, dazzling diamond earrings.
She picked up the card and saw only two words: [Happy Birthday】
There was no signature, but Aveline recognized the smooth, elegant handwriting as Xavier’s.
Aveline laughed, a scornful, contemptuous laugh.
So Xavier was sending her a late birthday present.
It seemed filing for divorce had really scared him.
