Chapter 420
Rupert looked at him, “I heard from Valentina and Mason that they video–chatted with Aveline tonight?”
“Yes.”
“It seems that even though Aveline says she wants a divorce, she’s not that cold to our family. Maybe she doesn’t really want a divorce in her heart.”
“It’s all because this grandson of mine has no sense, upsetting her like that.
Xavier replied, “Yes, it’s my fault.

“When you went to Mount Ardwood, did you tell Aveline about Leona bringing Bryan to see me?”
“I did.”
“What did Aveline say?”
Xavier thought for a moment, “She won’t admit she lied to me.”
Rupert sighed, “How could she possibly admit it?”
“That guy, Bryan, he’s a gambler. Lost a lot of money, even borrowed from loan sharks. His wife divorced him and remarried, did you know?”
Xavier gave a faint smile, “Of course I know. I was the one who paid off his gambling debts.”
Rupert snorted, “You gave that bastard a lot of money, didn’t you?”
“Can you trust the words of a person like that?”
Xavier replied to him, “That’s why I had it checked at the hospital.”
“Barry went to the hospital and found out that it was indeed Josephine who donated blood at the time, but the hospital director and the doctor who drew her blood have both resigned. It’s really strange.”
Xavier glanced at the Patriarch, “I’ve already arranged for people to find them.”

Rupert looked at him. “Leona showed me a video of Josephine giving blood tonight.”
Hearing this, Xavier’s expression instantly turned cold.

Rupert continued. “This Courtney woman is really something else. To actually film her daughter giving blood.”
“Her daughter is afraid of having her blood drawn. Shouldn’t she be comforting her instead? And she had the mind to film it as a memento.”
Xavier’s expression was indifferent, and he said nothing.
He also thought the video shouldn’t have been filmed, but someone like Courtney didn’t seem to have normal human emotions.
Rupert asked, “You’d never seen that video before? Josephine didn’t show it to you?”
Xavier replied, “No, I just saw it today myself. Leona came all the way to my office to show me.”
If he had seen it back then, he might have found it strange, been more cautious, and perhaps investigated it more thoroughly.
Because a video like that felt a little too deliberate:
Rupert gave Xavier a deep look. “Xavier, stay away from that mother and daughter, Courtney and Josephine.”
Xavier smiled and said, “Grandpa, don’t worry. Aveline already blocked Josephine’s WhatsApp and phone number. I won’t reach out to Josephine myself.”
“And, I know what you’re thinking. Since I’m planning to reinvestigate, I’ll definitely be investigating that mother and daughter too.”
Rupert snorted. “You’d better be telling me the truth.”
Xavier gave a helpless smile. “Do you really think I have feelings for Josephine?”
“Hmph. You’d better not.”
Xavier fell silent. He figured time would prove everything. If he stayed away from Josephine, Rupert would naturally find out.
Rupert looked at him and asked, “This Saturday is Collin’s milestone birthday. He doesn’t want a birthday banquet, but we should at least book a private dining room and have a meal, right?”
Xavier replied, “Aveline’s mother passed away. Her maternal grandparents are grieving and don’t

want a big celebration As for going out to eat, I don’t know if Aveline will agree.”
If he suggested it to her, she definitely wouldn’t be happy with him.
