Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 381

“Besides, fighting a divorce case with him won’t stop me from building my career.”

Paulina smiled helplessly, then gave Aveline a deep look and asked, “Aveline, Mr. Harmon from Crestmark… I see he’s been very good to you. Could it be…”

Aveline cut her off, “Grandma, don’t let your imagination run wild. Sebastian is a good person. I don’t think he has those kinds of intentions.”

Paulina said thoughtfully, “I think he’d be a good match if he does like you.”

Aveline didn’t answer, afraid her grandmother would keep speculating.

In the afternoon, Aveline picked up Jasmine, then met up with Julian. The three of them, in two cars, headed back to Mount Ardwood.

Aveline was driving, and Jasmine was scrolling through her Social Feed on her phone, saying:

“I saw on Marjorie’s Social Feed that Josephine’s movie starts filming tomorrow.”

Aveline had been busy with two projects lately, and with Xavier pestering her, she had completely forgotten about Josephine’s movie.

Hah, Xavier kept saying he liked her, loved her, but then he should stop investing in that movie for Josephine.

She really should have told Xavier to his face this morning to take back that billion, and she wondered what his reac- tion would have been.

Jasmine continued, “They’ve hired actors who are both popular and talented, good–looking and skilled.”

Aveline said calmly, “Xavier gave her a billion, and he can add more if it’s not enough. Of course she can throw mon- ey around to hire good actors.”

Jasmine snorted, “I just wonder if the movie will even break even when it’s released.”

For the next few days, Aveline was incredibly busy. Thankfully, Xavier didn’t come to bother her, so she could focus on her work in peace.

However, she felt that Dylan was looking at her strangely, as if he was looking for trouble.

One day, Fiona suddenly called her, saying she had asked around at the court, and the judge claimed the case was in a

queue.

“But, Aveline, I feel like something’s off. I bet Xavier is up to something.”

“But don’t worry, I’m asking around. I’ll definitely find out if Xavier is behind this.”

Aveline knew Fiona had a lot of connections, and could even use Sebastian’s, so she wasn’t worried about not finding

out.

She was worried that Xavier, not wanting a divorce, was pulling strings behind the scenes.

On Friday morning, Xavier called Ryan into his office and asked him, “Any news from Rebecca? Is the construction crew coming back to the city this weekend?”

Ryan replied, “Rebecca said that the construction lead, David, and Brandon Poole won’t be coming back to the city this weekend.”

“Rebecca said the construction is going great. The concept art is halfway done, and Mr. Barron saw it and was very satisfied.”

Hearing this, Xavier suddenly wanted to see what kind of concept art Aveline had come up with for the’s theme park.

He had already planned to go to Mount Ardwood this weekend if she didn’t return to the city.

“Is there anything important this afternoon? I’m going to Mount Ardwood for the weekend.”

Ryan replied to him, “There’s nothing else this afternoon, Mr. Beltran.”

Xavier nodded. Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Xavier called them in.

The driver, Amy, came in with a grave expression.

Xavier told Ryan to leave and asked Amy, “What is it?”

“Mr. Beltran, we can’t reach Bryan.”

Xavier’s dark eyes narrowed. “Can’t reach him?
