Chapter 244: Chapter 244

Xavier had the usual handsome face of the Fords. His eyes were particularly beautiful and sparkly. He was always surrounded by women, but he only had his eye on Weston’s female secretary. He heard that she was a graduate of a prestigious school overseas. She was very capable and good-looking All the other secretaries blushed at the sight of him, but this woman treated him formally with a business-only attitude. Il only made him more interested in her.

“Mr. Xavier, please come this way.” Daisy was an experienced secretary that had been working with Weston for many years.

After looking at Weston’s face for many years, even the most handsome face in the entertainment industry would not make her heart race. Not many could match her boss’ charm. Besides, Xavier looked a little flirtatious. He was not her cup of tea.

She preferred people like Weston that were cool, handsome, and elegant “Why are you always unhappy to see me?” Xavier reached over and gave her shoulder a gentle squeeze. He acted like he wanted to help straighten her collar Daisy avoided his movement imperceptibly. “Mr. Ford is waiting for you inside.” “How lame.” Xavier withdrew his hand and looked at her back for a few beals.

When she got into the elevator, he finally retracted his gaze and casually strode to Weston’s office.

Weston was browsing a file when Xavier came in. Xavier walked over and picked up a book from his table. He flipped through the pages and asked, “Since when do you read these classics?”

Weston ignored him and spun the pen in his hand. He tapped his finger on the table and warned, “Don’t disturb my work.”

“We haven’t seen each other for so long. Why are you still so cold?” Xavier clicked his tongue a few times and asked, “Aren’t you curious about my visit? Do you know why I came?”

“What business can you have?”

“Just listen to yourself. I’m the only one comparable to you in the Ford family. Why are you not taking me seriously? What if I suddenly turned things around and took away all your inheritance?”

“If you can do it, sure.” Weston seemed unperturbed and rubbed his brows. “Don’t underestimate me so much. You might suffer later,” Xavier said with a half-smile. Weston looked at him differently. “What do you want?”

Xavier put the book back and casually sal on his sofa He rested one arm on the back of the chair and watched as the secretary left. “Why are your secretaries like you? All of them are so cold,” Xavier asked, but he answered his own question. He rubbed his chin and said as his eyes suddenly turned dark, “Is she doing this on purpose to get my attention?” Weston was uninterested in these. He signed his name on the document and stood up after he finished liis work “If there’s nothing else, please leave.”

Weston closed the pen with one hand and tossed it back to the table with a clean movement.

Then, he tumed to leave. Xavier hurriedly followed behind him. “Hey, I’m your uncle How can you treat me like this?” He covered his heart and said with a wounded look, “I’m so sad.” Weston pushed him away. “Stay away from me.” He never felt comfortable with physical contact, even with Guinevere He could maintain a polite interaction at best. He would reject anything more intimate than that.

The people around him knew his habits. Therefore, not many would get too close to him in public.

Xavier was an exception. The more Weston disliked him, the more he would try to provoke him.

Weston had always had a way to keep him under control. However, Xavier never learned his lesson.

He would forget the pain and annoy Weston over and over again. “Looks like you’ve been having a good time.” Weston suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked at him meaningfully. “I remembered you have a fiancée. If you’re very bored, I don’t mind calling her over to play with you.” Weston’s words struck Xavier’s weakness.
