Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 393

Then he stared at Bryan, “Tell me the truth. What really happened back then?”

Bryan stammered, looking back and forth between Xavier and Leona.

Xavier’s expression was cold. He picked up his cup and drank his tea, not looking at him.

Leona, however, shot him a menacing glare, a clear warning.

Lauren said impatiently, “Bryan, with the Patriarch and me here, what are you afraid of? Tell the truth, was it Josephine who saved Mr. Beltran?”

Bryan swallowed and said, “Actually… actually, I was unconscious at the time. I didn’t see a face: I just knew it was a woman. All I saw were her legs in high–heeled leather shoes.”

Hearing this, Xavier stared at him, his eyes turning icy cold.

Feeling uneasy, Bryan looked toward him and met his gaze. He quickly said in alarm, “Mr… Mr. Beltran, later I saw Ms. Josephine wearing those same shoes at the hospital, so I thought she must be the one who saved you.”

Xavier smashed the teacup in his hand on the floor. “You bastard, that’s not what you told me back then.”

Bryan flinched. “Mr… Mr. Beltran, I’m sorry, but my assumption couldn’t have been wrong, right?”

Rupert’s face was grim and he said nothing. Lauren was confused. “So was it Josephine or Aveline?”

Leona sneered, “Mom, unless Aveline has the exact same pair of shoes, it must have been Josephine.”

As she spoke, she looked at Xavier, only to find him staring at her coldly.

Leona pouted. “Don’t look at me like that. Aveline is the one who lied to you. You don’t blame her, your own sister.”

“I’m your sister, and I only want what’s best for you. Why would you marry a woman who lied to you?”

you

blame me,

Xavier said coldly, “Do I need your permission, Leona, to decide who I marry?”

Leona huffed and turned her face away.

Rupert looked at Xavier. “What did he tell you back then?”

Xavier said with a cold face, “Aveline saved me. It couldn’t have been anyone else.”

Bryan glanced at Xavier, then lowered his head and said nothing, as if to say whatever Mr. Beltran said, goes.

He shifted slightly, his eyes flickering.

Leona cried out, “Xavier, what has Aveline done to you? Are you still defending her?”
