Chapter 118

Xavier noticed the expression on Yonas's face and dared not say anything more. Selena's words promptly brought him to his senses, reminding him of who was standing in front of him.

"Yasmine, I can have Helen apologize to you and even compensate you with money. Just name a price, and I'll do my best to meet you, Xavier offered.

Yasmine looked at Xavier with a cold expression, her tone equally icy. "No need. Please leave."

Xavier's face fell instantly, and both Yvette and Selena also changed their expressions. They hadn't expected Yasmine to be so unyielding.

"Since you're unwilling, we won't force it. But don't beg us later, Selena spat, glaring fiercely at Yasmine.

Once outside, Xavier was annoyed as he recalled the embarrassing scene earlier. "You knew she wouldn't agree to reconcile. Why did you have to ask me here?"

It was Selena who decided to come here. She looked at her son unhappily and said, "What do you mean by that? Are you blaming me? I was too anxious after this happened. I thought that since she used to love you so much, if you said something to soften her heart, maybe she would let it go. But who would have thought she had latched onto such a powerful connection? She didn't respect me before, and now it's even impossible for her to take me seriously."

Selena continued to mutter angrily as she walked. "I can't believe she's so lucky, managing to hook up with the Russell family. But I don't think Nathan will really tolerate such a woman." "Mom, what are you planning? Xavier saw the cunning glint in Selena's eyes and felt a sense of foreboding.

"None of your r concern. Just make sure to keep a close watch on Louise's daughter. Since Yasmine and Yonas already know she's missing, I don't believe they will just stand by," Selena said, Yvette walked behind them, her mind filled with thoughts of the way Yonas looked at Yasmine, gentle yet possessive. 'How could anyone not fall for a man like that?" she thought.

After returning home, the moment Xavier entered the bedroom, he threw a cup from the table to the ground, shattering it into pieces.

Yvette nervously walked into the room, a chill running down her spine. "Xavier, are you okay?" she asked, her voice tinged with fear.
