Chapter 521
When Yvette heard that, she bit Xavier's arm right away without holding back. Although she didn't bite too hard, it was still a little painful. He gently patted her on the back. "What did I do in your dreams?" Yvette slowly said with a hoarse voice, "You wanted me to get rid of the baby in my belly."
"Oh, why would I do that, silly?"
Although she wouldn't admit the child was his, he was certain of it. So, there was no way he could bear to get rid of their baby.
She looked up at him. "Xavier, promise me you won't do anything to my children if you regain your memories, alright?"
"Sure. You have my word. If I hurt the kids, I'll die a terrible death."
At that moment, he really wanted to tell her that he'd already regained his memories. However, he was worried that she would want to leave him again. After all, she was only staying by his side at that moment because she pitied him for losing his sight and memories. With Xavier's promise, Yvette could finally relax a little. Then, she fell asleep again in his embrace.
...
Meanwhile, Daphne didn't manage to sleep at all. Instead, she drank a lot while looking at Yvette's replies.
When Yvonne arrived, she couldn't help feeling worried when she saw the floor covered in beer bottles. "Why are you drinking so much, Daph?"
When Daphne saw Yvonne, she immediately hugged the latter. "What should I do, Yvonne? Xav doesn't like me anymore. No one does."
Daphne had called Yvonne over because she wanted to attend a cocktail party together. Xavier and Tristan didn't want to talk to her anymore, and Jeremiah was a dangerous man. So, she had to find a new man with wealth and power to support her.
Jeremiah had also told her that Xavier had received an invitation to the party and might be there as well. However, he hadn't given her an invitation at all.
So, she had to figure out a way to get into the party herself. Jeremiah said he wouldn't waste his time on her anymore if she couldn't get the invitation.
When Yvonne saw the state Daphne
was in, she felt terrible and hurriedly comforted the latter. "Don't be sad, Daph. You're so impressive that I'm sure there are a lot of men who like you. Even if you don't have Xavier, youll be able to find someone better."
She didn't believe Daphne was a bad person at all.
Daphne nodded. "But I don't know where to find someone who loves me at all."Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
"There's a cocktail party tonight; you can have my invitation. I'm sure the men there won't be able to look away from you if you attend it.", Yvonne already had a fiancé, and she didn't like attending those kinds of parties anyway.
When Daphne heard that, she looked grateful. "Thank you, Yvonne."
"There's no need to thank me. That's what friends are for."
After getting Yvonne's invitation, Daphne started preparing herself.
Mark went to Dewberry Manor to deliver the invitation to Xavier himself. "Mr. Lane, the Lumber family is having a cocktail party tonight, Sunny Lumber, the eldest son of the Lumber family, delivered the invitation himself. I'm sure he's plotting something."
The Lumber family and the Lane family had never gotten along. Sunny was a sly man. Although he looked kind on the surface, he had backstabbed the Lanes multiple times in the past.
However, he only had cheap tricks up his sleeves, and he had already reached his peak a long time ago.
He had another brother, Trevor, who seemed more decent than Sunny but was nevertheless a despicable man who'd hooked up with countless celebrities in secret. He was engaged, and his fiancée was none other than Yvonne. Xavier had never cared about parties like that at all. However, after hearing what Mark had said, he became interested.
"In that case, let's see what he has planned."
