Chapter 352
So Aveline didn’t know about Leona’s call and didn’t answer it.
Leona thought Aveline was deliberately ignoring her call and muttered to herself in the car,
“Bitch, you’re too guilty to answer my call.”
She sent a text: [You had the guts to do it, why don’t you have the guts to answer my call?]
[Think you’ve landed a tycoon like Sebastian, so a pair of earrings worth millions is beneath you now?]
[Aveline, you’ll regret messing with me.]
The messages went unanswered. Leona was still furious, so she drove to the Beltran’s mansion.
The Patriarch likes Aveline, doesn’t he? She would let him know about the disgusting thing Aveline had done, let the old man see just how terrible Aveline’s character was.
Aveline didn’t see the messages from Xavier and Leona until that evening. She ignored the siblings and blocked Leona’s WhatsApp and number.
It was clearly Xavier who cheated, and Leona was even siding with Josephine, the other woman. And she still dared to slander her for getting involved with Sebastian.
She didn’t curse her out, just blocked her. She was getting off easy.
Just as she was about to put her phone down, a message came from Xavier.
[My sister went to the mansion to complain. I explained to Grandpa that you didn’t like the style, so you gave them to her.]
[If Grandpa and Mom ask you, don’t say the wrong thing and upset the elders.]
[When you’re back in town this weekend to see your maternal grandparents, you should also visit Grandpa some- times. The old man really cares about you.]
Aveline put down her phone with a neutral expression and picked up a book to read.
Xavier stood on the master bedroom’s balcony with a glass of whiskey in one hand and his phone in the other, gazing at the distant mountains and the city lights blending together.
The view from Parkview Estates was great, and the air was clean, which was why Aveline chose to buy a villa here.
She had decorated it beautifully, too. When she finished the renovations and asked him to see it, he knew she had a real talent for architectural design and a great artistic eye.

123 Portiers.
More than half an hour later, the whiskey was almost gone, and Aveline hadn’t replied.
Xavier laughed self–deprecatingly. “Aveline, you’ve really got guts.”
“I’m not going to divorce you. Are you planning to waste your whole life fighting me like this?”
In a few days, Fiona would find out that Felix had suppressed the lawsuit, and then who knows what new trick Ave- line would pull on him.
Xavier downed the last of his whiskey, turned and went inside to shower and rest.
In a private dining room at the Velvet Club, Leona’s eyes widened as she listened to Josephine’s tearful story.
“God Almighty, so you were the one who saved Xavier. No wonder Xavier is so good to you.”
Josephine sniffled. “Leona, Xav told me not to say anything, that’s why I never told you.”
“But Xavier has become so cold recently. I couldn’t hold it in anymore, so I had to tell you, because you’re the only one who can help me.”
