Chapter 493
Xavier knew Aveline didn’t have a habit of napping, so he asked, “Is she really asleep, or did she tell you to tell me she’s asleep?”
Helena: “…I saw her lying on the bed with her eyes closed. She should be asleep.”
Hearing this, Xavier guessed Aveline was probably just resting with her eyes closed, not actually asleep.
But it was also possible she was asleep, and he couldn’t very well ask Helena to wake her up.
“How is my wife’s ankle today? Does it still hurt?”
Helena replied, “Ma’am said it’s much better, that’s why she went down to the buffet for her meal. She said she was getting bored staying in the room for so long.”
“Is her appetite okay?”
“It’s quite good. She finished all her food.”
“What did she eat?”
Helena: ”
”
He was being awfully detailed.
But she still told Xavier everything Aveline had for lunch.
Thankfully, she remembered it all.
Xavier gave a soft “Mm,” and said, “This afternoon, ask my wife what kind of snack she’d like, and
you can make it for her.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Take good care of her. Call me right away if anything happens. I’m hanging up.”
After saying that, Xavier hung up the phone.
Aveline, lying on the bed in the room, wasn’t actually asleep. She was just resting with her eyes closed. When Helena opened the door and came in, she of course heard the noise, but she couldn’t

be bothered to open her eyes and ask what she was doing.

Aveline figured she was either coming in to get something, or she was worried and came to check on her.
Helena went out to talk at the doorway without closing the door, so Aveline heard that she was on the phone with Xavier.
Aveline scoffed internally, thinking that guy Xavier sent Helena over to take care of her, but it was really to spy on her. Even what she ate for lunch, Helena had to report to him.
After the lunch break, Jasmine came over from her room to Aveline’s room to work together.
Helena walked in and asked, “Ma’am, what kind of snack would you like? I’ll go make it for you.”
Aveline was drawing and said flatly without looking up, “I don’t want any.”
Jasmine immediately said, “Hey, why not? If you’re not eating, I want some! Helena’s snacks are delicious.”
Aveline was helpless and had to say, “Then tell Helena what you want to eat.”
Helena was speechless. Mr. Beltran told her to make something for his wife, but his wife didn’t want any, so now she had to make what Miss liked.
Jasmine happily ordered two kinds of snacks. When Helena heard them, she was relieved that one of them was something Aveline liked, and went to make them without worry.
Leaving the room, Helena sent a text to Xavier, telling him what snacks she was going to make.
Xavier was on his way to the conference room for a meeting with Leonard. When he saw the text, he asked in surprise:
[I remember my wife doesn’t eat durian. Why are you making Durian Puff Pastry?]
Helena replied, [It’s for Miss.]
[The other one is something my wife likes.]
Seeing that one of them was something Aveline liked, Xavier replied to her, [Okay, if she likes it, then make some extra.]
Helena was speechless again.
If they eat this many snacks, will they even have room for dinner?
