Chapter 586
Adrienne was talking nonstop to Xavier, mostly about school. She mentioned that she had to
performter in the year. In previous shows, there was Hansen, but now, he was gone.
Xavier''s eyes dimmed a little when he heard her words.
He finally understood one thing; pain would never hurt until you experience it yourself. He didn''t feel
much when he witnessed Hansen and Loraine crying over Yvonne''s death.
It was not until Madison''s death that he realized how much it hurt. It was a good thing there was
someone here telling him about things that he was not that interested in to keep himpany.
"Uncle Xavier, why won''t you say anything?" Adrienne looked at him as if she was upset.
He came to his senses and said, "I was too into listening to you, Adrienne. By the way, what do you
like to eat? I''ll ask Yantsey to buy it for you."
"I want ice cream, chocte, and cakes..." She asked for a few items.
stair sat by the side and said helplessly, "You''re asking for too much food."
"It doesn''t matter. I''ll just eat less for dinner," she said hurriedly.
Xavier reached out and patted her head with a doting expression on his face.
Yantsey enjoyed the atmosphere. He turned and was about to leave to buy the food that Adrienne
wanted. She thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Yantsey, I''ll go with you. I''m afraid that you
would not be good at choosing them."
The corners of his mouth twitched. No matter what, he was someone who had gone through thick
and thin with Mr. Godfrey. How could a child question him?
"Alright, thene with me." Yantsey reached out his hand and held Adrienne''s hand as they
walked out.
stair stayed behind, but it was rare for the living room to be so quiet.
"stair, don''t you want to eat anything?"
"Mommy said that if you overeat such foods, you''ll get cavities," he responded in a deep voice. It
seemed that he was remarkably self-disciplined.

Xavier raised his eyebrows. He could tell that stair was a very strict person, but he was still a
child.
"stair, you can do anything you want here and eat whatever you like."
"No, eating too much at night will make my stomach ufortable," stair refused again.
Xavier chuckled. "You''re a kid."
"Yes, but there are two types of children, the sensible and insensible ones," stair responded in a
deep voice. He did not need others to teach him about how to be a kid.
Xavier became interested and said, "stair, I''m very curious about how high your IQ is."
"198," stair said without hesitation. It was his mother who had taken him to do the test,
otherwise, their grandfather wouldn''t have allowed him to manage thepany.
Xavier raised his eyebrows and found it rather amusing.
The next day, Xavier went to thepany. He looked at the information that Yantsey had sorted out
the night before and frowned even more. "Is this it?"
"Yes, it has been confirmed many times. Even the Jenkins family has news that Alexander did not
agree to let ourpany participate in the case."
Xavier listened, but he didn''t answer. Instead, he looked at the documents in his hand once more.
"If you don''t agree, then forget it. I saw the few projects before. They don''t seem to be reliable.
Withdraw the funds for me. The construction work has not started anyway."
Yantsey was in a tight spot. "If that''s the case, won''t we seem untrustworthy to others?"
"Godfrey Group''s name is in shambles anyway and has be aughing stock in the Ocpeace
City. We don''t need to try to prove that we''re trustworthy now." Xavier really wanted tough. If the
Godfrey family wasn''t one of the Four Greatest Households, thepany would have been
destroyed by others early on.
Yantsey thought that it made sense, so he did not say anything more.
When Wilson arrived, he heard that the previous project had been withdrawn. He received calls of
comints, saying that he did not keep his word.
He came to Xavier''s office. "Xavier, why did you withdraw the funds?" He asked.
"The project didn''t meet the standards, so we withdrew the funds. There''s nothing wrong with it,"
Xavier said without raising his head. He didn''t care about Wilson''s arrival at all.
Wilson red at him angrily. "Didn''t meet the standards? I approved them after thoughtful
consideration. How can you deny it? Xavier, even if you''re against me, you can''t make fun of
Godfrey Group." "Who was the one that was making fun of Godfrey Group? Haven''t you cheated
thepany enough? If Diana hadn''t been investigated, I wouldn''t have known that you had given
your shares to her. Didn''t you know that if you let go of Godfrey Group''s shares so easily, the
Upon hearing what Xavier had said, Wilson did not speak because what he said was the truth.
"If that''s the case, you''ll have topensate for withdrawing the funds."
"Compensate? Think about the projects you''ve approved. Which one of them is qualified? If they
can''t be done well, I will call the police and let them investigate." Xavier''s meaning was obvious. If
the money wasn''t returned, he would get the police involved.
Wilson was so furious that his whole body was trembling. He couldn''t say a word, and he pointed at
Xavier, speechless.
"Why are you so triggered?"
"You''re such an unfilial son." Wilson couldn''t bear it anymore and roared.
Xavier smirked. He picked up the document on the table and threw it at him.
Wilson was stunned. Anger was slowly building up within him and was ready to erupt at any time.
He said, "How dare you hit me?"
"Hit you? It was lighterpared to what you did thest time. I just threw a file at you, and you
didn''t even lose a drip of blood." Xavier didn''t feel like he did anything wrong. When he was beaten,
he had decided that he would return the kick sooner orter.
Wilson was never qualified to be a husband nor a father. If he had at least gone to send his mother
off onest time, his attitude toward him would not be so bad.
"Don''t forget who gave birth to you. Even if I was to beat you to death, you still have to bear with it.
I''m telling you, if it wasn''t for me, you wouldn''t be here today, including Theodore." Wilson''s face
was flushed red as he spoke in a loud voice.
Just then, a voice came from the door. "If we were given the choice, we would not choose to be
your children anyway. You''re not a qualified father to begin with."
Both of them looked at the door at the same time.
Theodore''s tall figure walked in through the door. A hint of disgust could be seen on his cold face,
and his deep gaze was filled with a chilliness.
"Do you think that we are willing to be your sons?
Apart from all the scheming and plotting, we had never gotten any warmth from our family."
Wilson looked at him and felt angrier. "So you mean that I shouldn''t have given birth to you?"
"Was he wrong to say that? God knows how many times we''ve been happy since childhood. You
and Mom are really a perfect match. All you care about are your own interests," Xavier sneered at
him. Obviously, he was expressing his dissatisfaction with his words.
Wilson finally understood their intentions; they were teaming up against him.
