Chapter 980


    As soon as Jensen exited the room, everyone congratted him.


    "Boss, congrattions on your reinstatement."


    "Treat us to dinner. This is a big deal that is worth celebrating.”


    "Boss, we knew that you woulde back soon."


    Jensen was extremely shocked, and then he began tough. "You all knew about it?”


    "We heard." His subordinate stepped forward and said, "The doors are not soundproof. We could hear everything. We all heard


    what you and Terence were talking about. Director Hond was also listening by the door. You see, no one will be able to get


    away with evil- doings. Served him right."


    "That''s right," another one echoed.


    Jensen nodded and asked, "By the way, who is in charge of Xavier''s kidnapping case?"


    "They stopped investigating the case. Director Allen didn''t allow us to investigate any further."


    "D*mn it." Jensen cursed, "Lilian, draw up an investigation warrant. I''ll ask Director Hond to sign it. We''ll search Xavier''s


    residence immediately."


    "Yes, sir!"


    Soon, the paperwork was ready. Before Vincent left, Jensen asked him to sign the papers and immediately took someone with


    him to Xavier''s residence.


    Alex was still there when he arrived. He heaved a sigh of relief as soon as he saw Jensen.


    "You are finally here. Any longer and Xavier would''ve been back."


    "Where is he now?" Jensen asked, "Is he not at home?"


    “He went out. Our people found out that he just went to the manor on the mountain to meet with Miranda. He might be back


    soon."


    "Then let''s wait for him to show up," Jensen replied. "This time around, | want him to know that every action has its


    consequences.”


    “Roger that!"


    Concurrently, there was a car parked at the gate of the manor.


    It was Xavier. He sat in the driver''s seat while Miranda sat in the passenger seat.


    “Aunt Miranda, | think we might fail this time," Xavier started. "Diego went to visit Marry, and | heard that he was scolded."


    "When?" Miranda was shocked.


    "Just now," Xavier replied. "I just got the news before | came. Marry had scolded Diego really terribly."


    "Oh, my God.” Miranda''s face was filled with regret. "That silly woman, why did she scold him? It has made him even angrier."


    “He must be very angry," Xavier agreed. "I think it''s over for us. Diego probably went there to get a grasp of the whole situation,


    so it means that he was likely willing to help. Instead, Marry had scolded him. How ironic."


    “Help Marry?" Miranda repeated dubiously. "Well, who knows? He would help someone who is upright and righteous, but he


    wouldn''t help someone who''s going to go downhill."


    "Then, why did he visit Marry?"


    "| don''t know." Miranda shook her head and said, "Perhaps it''s as you said. He just wanted to get to know her. However, things


    have turned out so badly."


    “What do you n to do?" Xavier looked at her and asked softly, "Why don''t you want to sign the papers?"


    "Xavier, do you want me to divorce Diego?"


    Miranda was shocked.


    Xavier nodded and finally said, "Yes. | didn''t want to persuade you like this, but we can''t help it now. If you insist on provoking


    Diego and the Quell family, we will suffer in the future."


    “Are you afraid?" Miranda''s eyes widened.


    Xavier answered with a self- deprecating smile, "Yes, I''m scared."


    "You useless thing.”


    “Aunt Miranda, | thought that perhaps with your help, | might be able to rise to the top. But now, you see, | didn''t receive


    anything. | might be detained or even arrested because of Marry. If | were to be sentenced to death, what would my father do?"


    At the mention of his father, Miranda became silent.


    He continued, "My father was so kind to you back then. He was devoted to you, but after you entered the Quell family, you


    married Diego. My father was still waiting for you. Look for him after you divorce Diego. If | go to jail, take care of him for me."


    Miranda pursed her lips. "Xavier, we didn''t work hard enough. How would we know the result?"


    "You don''t think my father is anythingpared to Diego, right? You think my father is someone to be ashamed about, don''t


    you?" Xavier was angry as he shouted in a low voice, "Then, why would you flirt with him?" "I..." Miranda fell speechless.


    "You led my father on, and now it''s time to pay back." Xavier''s voice remained lowered as he said, "Leave Diego and go back to


    my father. Even if | go to jail, | won''t hold you ountable for it.”


    Miranda looked at Xavier. She never thought that the young man would get even with her.


    Only then did she realize that she had lost Diego''s support. She truly had nothing left at all.


    If she signed the divorce papers, there would still be a house for her, as well as the love from Xavier''s father. If she did not sign it,


    both of these would slip out from her grasp.


    However, if she signed it, what would happen to Marry?


    "Aunt Miranda!" Xavier spoke again,


    "Marry is dumb. Your guilt is over


    you work hard epquate shdultbe


    endl Stop immersing yourself in


    her affairs. You can''t pin any hope on


    a dumb b*tch like her." Please read

    "She is my daughter." Miranda returned, "How could you call her that?"


    “Aunt Miranda." Xavier replied sternly, "Forgive me for speaking frankly, but your daughter is a dumb b*tch. If you don''t sign the


    papers, then you are also foolish.”


    "Xavier!" Miranda was angered.


    Xavier widened his eyes and looked at her. He stated coldly, "Don''t lose your temper with me. | won''t let you do this to me


    anymore."


    Miranda came to her senses and realized that she had lost her power.


    Anyone could bully her now.


    She gave a wry smile, opened the door to get out, and then walked away.


    Xavier shouted from behind, "If you don''t sign the divorce papers, don''t contact me and my father anymore."


    Miranda halted her footsteps.


    Xavier then continued, "| have already


    arranged a blind date for him. If |


    don''t return a weekter, and yo


    don''t as well, the bjigedate ee an


    Trprealé bre than a hundred old


    ladies, and my dad can choose


    whoever he wants. You''d better think


    it over carefully. If you don''t go back,


    he will choose someone else. By


    then, you will be a mistress." Please

    The word "mistress" deeply hurt Miranda. She whirled around and angrily rebuked Xavier, "You''re forcing me to divorce Diego?


    Xavier, you''ve crossed the line!"


    "This is what you owe me," Xavier


    aTisWeled, Over the past eam


    you''ve only used me te \our


    adyartdde You''ve never done


    anything for me, and yet you dare to


    insult me. Don''t you think that''s


    enough?" Please read the original

    Miranda sighed. Indeed, she had not helped Xavier with anything. She couldn''t pin any hope on Diego as well. Therefore, Xavier


    was right.


    "You''re right. | owe you."


    Xavier smiled and said, "Aunt Miranda, help me take good care of my father. | will be filial to you after | get out."


    Miranda''s eyes suddenly filled with tears. She turned around and waved her hand, saying, "You can leave now."


    Xavier watched as she entered the manor, then he picked up the phone and called Jensen.


    "Jensen, I''m turning myself in!"
