Chapter 158

Xavier uttered those threatening words slowly.

Yvette's gaze turned solemn at that. She had always known Claude was important figure abroad, but she had yet to learn exactly what his job was. She had found him seriously injured many times.

Xavier's tall figure loomed in front of her. "It sounds like you know me well. How do you know it doesn't benefit me?" His Adam's apple moved slightly.

Yvette met his gaze directly. "You'd be spending more money on a bad deal. How is that beneficial?"

Xavier let out a cold laugh. "You're wrong. I never do business if I'm going to lose. With the position I have, I know money isn't the goal for some businesses."
