Urging Him to Get a Divorce novel Chapter 554

Chapter 554

Besides, this whole act wasn’t just to torment Aveline; it was also a performance for Xavier, and a way to set the stage for their future plans.

Courtney sighed and said, “Child, what kind of things are you saying? We’re a family. We only want what’s best for you.”

Aveline looked at her coldly, “Is that so?

If you really want what’s best for me, then you and your illegitimate daughter can get the hell out of the house my mother bought.”

A harsh look flashed in Courtney’s eyes, and she immediately clutched her abdomen, “Ouch.”

Jacob was alarmed. “What’s wrong?”

He quickly went to Courtney and held her by the shoulders.

Gloria grew anxious too, releasing Aveline’s hand and reaching for Courtney. “Oh no, grandchild get a scare?”

Then she shouted at Aveline, “You damn girl, you’re up to no good, aren’t you? You don’t want your little brother to be born safely, do you?”

Jacob yelled at Aveline too, “Apologize to your stepmother.”

Aveline’s expression was cold. She said nothing, just ignored them.

Gloria lost her temper, raising her hand to slap Aveline.

Xavier, who had been watching, narrowed his dark eyes, reached out, and caught Gloria’s wrist.

“Ma’am, you said she was the apple of your eye. If you actually hit her, won’t you feel heartbroken?”

Gloria froze, stunned to see that it was Xavier who had caught her hand.

Xavier gave

Gloria recognized his words as a warning, and her hand trembled where it lay on the blanket.

Watching this, the Sutton family became even more convinced that Xavier was serious about protecting Aveline.

Courtney wasn’t surprised, but Devin, Vincent, and Eileen were. When had Xavier become so good to Aveline?

Jacob, on the other hand, wondered if Xavier was deliberately siding with Aveline because he and Josephine had been fighting.

Just then, Josephine came in with the doctor.

Xavier said calmly, “Have the old lady checked out, see if it’s really a brain hemorrhage or some other problem. She seems full of energy to me, she even has the strength to hit people.”

The doctor glanced at him, thinking he looked familiar, a lot like the CEO of the.

But the patient was the priority, so he walked over to the hospital bed, “Ma’am, how are you feeling?”

Gloria saw Courtney, Josephine, and Eileen all signaling her, so she put a hand to her forehead, frowned, and said, “I feel dizzy.”

The doctor said, “Didn’t I just say? If the old lady feels dizzy, we need to get a scan to see what’s going on. I can’t tell just by looking.”

“As for a brain hemorrhage, it’s unlikely, but to be cautious, we still need to do a scan.‘

As he spoke, the doctor looked at Jacob, probably knowing he was the old lady’s son and could make the decision.

Jacob helped Courtney to the sofa. Hearing what the doctor said, and knowing his mother resisted getting scans, he spoke up to avoid making Xavier suspicious:

“Mom, why don’t we get a scan? Just to check. If it’s really a brain hemorrhage and we don’t take it seriously, it could be big trouble.”

Gloria had always hated hospital check–ups. Being told to fake fainting was already annoying enough, and now they wanted her to get a scan. She snapped angrily:

“No scans! What’s there to scan? I said I’m having a brain hemorrhage, so I’m having a brain hemorrhage. I know my own body.”
