Chapter 83
Chapter 83
Arya wanted to give Xavier a smile, but she couldn't because of the bitterness in her heart.
Xavier brushed the hair on her forehead and kissed her forehead gently.
"Good girl. When you wake up, everything will be fine."
Arya closed her eyes obediently.
Xavier sat by the bed for nearly an hour. Arya's breathing was much more steady. Xavier called her
softly, but she did not respond.
Only then did Xavier put her warm feet into the quilt and tuck her in. Seeing that she had not woken up,
he left the room with his cell phone.
Nanny Joy had already returned. Xavier called Nanny Joy. "Go upstairs and look after her. If she wakes
up in a bad mood, call me."
"Okay." Nanny Joy replied.
After leaving words, Xavier left the villa and drove to the Old Residence.
On the way, he turned on his phone and Daisy made several phone calls.
He dialed back.
Daisy picked it up at once as if waiting for his wire back. She was especially angry at Xavier for turning
off his phone.
"You want to leave this mess to me, don't you? The Harrison Family are all here. Come back quickly."
Xavier said he knew and then hung up.
At this moment, the purpose was clearly. Xavier was prepared for this thing before.
If without the thing of Sunny, he might not have been so determined.
The Harrison Family...
Soon the car stopped at the Old Residence. Xavier got out of the car and walked in. Nanny May
opened the door and whispered to him, "Madam is in a bad mood."
Xavier nodded. "Give me a wet towel."
He didn't take anything obviously, but his hands felt uncomfortable.
Nanny May brought him a wet towel soaked in warm water. He wiped his hands and threw the towel to
Nanny May.
Walking into the living room, Daisy probably had an unpleasant conversation with them, and their look
were all not good. The atmosphere in the living room was very depressing.
"Mom, you go up first." Xavier took off his coat and threw it on the sofa randomly.
Just as Daisy didn't want to solve, she stood up. Estella didn't want to, so she hurriedly said, "This is
about two children. How can you do it without you?"
Just as Daisy was about to speak, Xavier said for Daisy, "My affairs, only I can decide."
As he spoke, he sat on the sofa, holding a cigarette in his mouth. He lit it, threw the lighter on the tea
table with a click. Estella's heart shrank. Xavier looked up at Estella, "What's the matter? Talk to me."
Estella smiled apologetically. "Anyway, Richard and I are growing elder. We should be..."
"Nanny May, my mother is not feeling well. Help her upstairs so she can take a rest." Xavier gave the
order forcefully.
Daisy knew his son well. Judging from his attitude, the marriage must not continue.
She sighed slightly and told him, "I know you have your thoughts. Harriet has been with you for four
years. You can't break her heart."
Xavier took a deep breath.
If it weren't for Harriet, he wouldn't have bothered to come here today and just let them go directly.
"I know what to do." Xavier replied faintly.
Daisy really didn't want to worry about this. Nanny May helped her go upstairs.
Today was fine. Harriet didn't cry or make a scene, but her face looked bad. Her sight were always on
Xavier.
"Xavier, I know it's hard for you to do about Marshal, and I won't make it difficult for you, but your
marriage to Harriet is coming up. How can you cancel it? If you abandon Harriet like this, what will you
let her do in the future?"
It was Richard. He had discussed it with Estella and Harriet before he came.
It was a little difficult to overturn Marshal's case, and the Harrison Family had a tough attitude and was
completely unwilling to interfere.
So under this situation, they decided to keep Harriet and Xavier's marriage first.
When they got married and everything was done, Marshal would really be Xavier's brother-in-law, and
then let Harriet plead. The chance of success would be greater.
And this would satisfy both sides. On the one hand, it saved Harriet's marriage, on the other hand, it
increased the bargaining chip to save Marshal.
When Xavier decided to annul the marriage, he made preparations.
He took out a document from the study and put it on the table.
The money that the Harrison family took from him all these years, and what Marshal did outside in his
name, were clearly recorded on it.
He didn't care about the money. As long as the Harrison Family consulted about the marriage well, he
wouldn't take the document out.
However, when Richard said this, it seemed that he didn't want to have a good talk.
"Take a look. We'll talk later." Xavier leaned back on the sofa with his legs casually crossed.
Richard frowned. Xavier's attitude made him very unhappy. He was an elder anyway.
How could he be so disrespectful to him?
Holding his breath, Richard picked up the document. When the company was about to close down,
Xavier invested a large sum of money. Although the large sum was converted into shares, in order to
run the company normally, he took a few more money from Xavier.
The villa at home was also Xavier bought.
Relying on his relationship with Xavier, Marshal was fooling around outside, eating, drinking, whoring,
and gambling.
Richard's face was drained of blood, white and blue for a while.
Estella, who was sitting by the side, saw that Richard had such a big reaction, so she took it over. After
looking at the document, her face didn't look good either.
Xavier was a little insulting.
"As for me, I'm getting married, not buying a wife. If you still want to talk about marriage, return the
money you took from me first. We can continue this topic." Xavier said casually without raising his
head.
He lowered his head to play with the phone and rubbed his thumb against the screen. He was waiting
for Nanny Joy's call and was worried about Arya.
Richard felt deeply humiliated by Xavier's foot and trembled with anger. "I'm not selling my daughter
either. Since you want to cancel this marriage, then..."
"Xavier, Richard and your father are the same generation. How can you be so disrespectful?" Estella
quickly interrupted Richard. If he really said something about canceling the marriage, there was really
no room to turn back.
Xavier didn't want to talk to them, so he simply said, "There are two ways. One way is to return the
money from me, including the house. It's a total of 891.14 million. We'll continue to talk about marriage.
Second, cancel the marriage. I don't want any of this as compensation. I'll give 50 million as
compensation for Harriet." Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
This really stumped Richard and Estella.
The company was snatched away by Arya, and they only had few shares in their hands. They were not
big shareholders, they only had dividends which valued less.
If they returned the house and took out more than 80 million dollars, they would really be poor and
have nothing.
Estella was used to the way rich people spend. If she didn't have money, how would she get into the
circle of rich women in the future?
What would they think of her?
Richard was also in a dilemma. The money was all he had.
When Harriet did not have relationship with Xavier, the Harrison Family was facing the predicament of
bankruptcy. It had only a few hundred thousand dollars in their hands, and it had relied on Xavier to
have hundreds of millions of assets in recent years.
If he took it all out, wouldn't he be poor again?
He couldn't accept it.
But they were not willing to give up Harriet and Xavier's marriage.
h"I'll give you one day. Think about it and we'll talk about it." Xavier stood up, obviously unwilling to
continue the conversation.
He couldn't stand their greedy faces, they shook only because of so little money.
"I have something else to do. Nothing else. You guys can leave too." Xavier picked up his coat and was
about to leave.
Just then, Harriet, who had been silent, came up and hugged him.
"Xavier, it's only ten more days before we get married. Uncle is coming back soon. How will you explain
it? And the people in W City know that we are getting married. Canceling the engagement is not a good
choice for you and me."
Xavier broke off her hand and looked at her face for two seconds. "It's all my business."
"Have you really decided to abandon me and end our four-year relationship?" After two days of settling
down, Harriet calmed down a lot and did not cry and make a scene like before.
If she cried, Xavier would not hesitate to push her away.
"I told you, I'll make it up to you after the engagement is annulled." For Xavier, he wouldn't have been
so easy to do that if it weren't for Harriet's sake.
Based on what Estella did, Xavier announced the cancellation of the engagement in public. How could
he talk to them?
"Four years, how many four years does a girl have? How much love have I give to you in that four
years? Are you going to use money to measure that?" Harriet changed and became aggressive all of a
sudden.
Looking at her, Xavier smiled. "This is the real you, right?"
Harriet was stunned.
Xavier's eyes darkened slightly. "In the future, I don't want you to continue coming here. If there's
anything else, just talk to me. That's all for today."
Then he put on his coat and left.
Harriet stood still and looked at Xavier's resolute back. Her face suddenly became ferocious and she
was no longer as docile as before. "Xavier, I will make you regret it!"
"Harriet." Estella called out to her.
Harriet didn't even look at Estella and ran out the door.
Estella chased her out, afraid that she would do something foolish.
Harriet wouldn't do anything foolish. She had figured it out for the past two days that Xavier didn't love
her, and this time he made up his mind to cancel the engagement.
There was no room for her to turn back.
She also thought of a way out for herself. She said she wanted Xavier to regret abandoning her.
Xavier came out of the Old Residence and went back to the villa. When he entered, he saw Nanny Joy
downstairs. He raised his eyebrows in displeasure. "Why are you downstairs? Where is she?"
"Madam went out. I saw that she didn't look well, but I couldn't stop her." Nanny Joy explained.
"Why didn't you call me?" A fire was rolling in his chest.
"She...she didn't want me to call you. She said you were busy, so don't call to disturb you." Nanny Joy
was helpless. She had never seen Xavier so angry.
She was a little scared.
Xavier turned around and left. Where could she go?
This woman was really troublesome...
