Xavier just smiled. “Baby, what’s the meaning behind this password?”
“It can’t be the date we officially started dating, that’s not right.”
Aveline was frustrated, but with her injured foot, there was nothing she could do to Xavier.
She lay down, pulled the covers over herself, and closed her eyes to sleep. Feeling a little hot, she ordered. “Turn on the AC.”
Xavier smiled and went to find the remote for the AC.
Then he drew the curtains, came back to the bedside, and tucked Aveline in.
“It’s good for you to sleep. I’ll come wake you up when it’s time for lunch.”
“I’m going to the room across the hall to change.”
With that, Xavier got up to leave.
Aveline opened her eyes. “Give me my phone back.”
“Not happening.”
Xavier left without looking back.
Aveline cursed, “Asshole.”
“I haven’t left yet.”
“Get lost.
Xavier said nothing, opened the door, and left.
Aveline felt helpless, so she just closed her eyes to sleep. With her injured foot, she couldn’t do anything anyway.
She wanted her phone back, really just to call for a wheelchair or a pair of crutches.
There was a landline in the room, and she could have called the front desk, but the thought of Xavier definitely stopping her was just exhausting.

Her foot was hurting badly, and she really didn’t have the energy to fight with him anymore.
Xavier came out of Aveline’s room and saw Amy standing in front of his door, looking like she had something to say, so he opened his door and went in,
“Come in and talk.”
Xavier got some clothes from the closet and put them on. Amy, with her head down and eyes lowered, said to him, “The initial information we’ve gathered is that Jason mentioned to his classmates in college that he was interested in a younger female student and wanted to pursue her, but nothing came of it. Everyone thought he was just joking.”
“I heard that student was a campus belle in her department.”
When Xavier heard she was a campus belle, his hand paused as he was fastening his belt. “You haven’t found out who she is?”
Amy looked up at him. “Every year, each department has a few campus belles. No one knows which one Jason was talking about.
When Aveline was in college, she was also known as a campus belle.”
Xavier already knew that.
Then, Amy added, “Ms. Josephine was also known as a campus belle at Entora University.”
Xavier said flatly, “When Josephine was doing her master’s at Entora University, Jason had already graduated.”
Amy replied, “Mr. Beltran, actually, Ms. Josephine transferred back to Entora University from abroad during her junior year. I doubt Aveline even knows about this.”
It was only after Bethany passed away and Jacob brought Courtney and Josephine into the family that Aveline found out they even existed.
So you can imagine, at Entora University, Josephine knew who Aveline was, but Aveline could have brushed past Josephine without having any idea who she was.
Hearing this, Xavier’s dark eyes narrowed slightly. “So have you found any connection between Jason and Josephine?”
“No.”
Xavier finished dressing, walked over to the sofa, and sat down. He mused for a moment, “If Jason is colluding with Courtney and Josephine to cause trouble, it must be because he’s seen

how much I care about Aveline and is using her to get to me.
“Keep investigating See if they’ve been in contact.”
“Yes, Mr. Beltran.”
