Chapter 244 Tiffany’s Proposal to Xavier for a Collaboration
“Hey, hey. Look…”
Yvonne pointed in front and turned to say to Veronica, “There is someone running after the person you
have no interest in.”
Although Yvonne was usually quite clueless, she could actually tell that Matthew was interested in
Veronica.
Yvonne shook her head. “Gosh, he’s such a great guy, so why aren’t you interested in him?”
Meanwhile, Veronica rolled her eyes at Yvonne. “Compared to the guy who proposed to you, he’s
totally no match for that person.”
“So, do you find him too ‘poor’?”
“Go away! What do you mean by that?! What I wanted to put forward is that there is no point in
forcefully making things work out in a relationship. After all, if you compare this with your situation, the
guy who proposed to you can be considered a golden boy, and yet you have no interest in him.”
After Veronica had said that, she lifted her head to see that Ruka had already clutched Matthew’s arm
and the two of them made their way inside together.
For some reason, Veronica felt quite displeased to see Ruka—that conniving and schemeful woman—
so close to Matthew.
Yvonne affectionately hitched her hand around Veronica’s arm, and the two of them entered the
banquet hall as well.
After the two of them entered the hall, a Land Rover arrived at the hotel.
The car door was opened and Xavier stepped out of the car.
After suffering injuries at the warehouse the last time, Xavier had been recuperating from his injuries in
the hospital the entire time. Fortunately, the gunshot wound he had suffered was on the upper part of
his right knee, and there were no bone injuries, so he was able to be discharged from the hospital in
such a short time.
After all, this was just a minor injury to him that could be overcome by tolerating it.
However, Melissa was not as fortunate as he was. She had sustained gunshot wounds on both legs,
and one of the gunshots had shattered her meniscus on one leg quite badly.
Right now, she was receiving conservative treatment at the hospital, and if her condition worsened,
there was a high chance that she would end up walking with a limp in the future.
Xavier shut the car door and instinctively reached out to straighten his necktie. Just as he was about to
walk off and leave the parking lot, someone got out of a car and approached him from the side.
“Young Master Xavier.”
Tiffany, who had been waiting there for quite some time, got out of the back of another car. “I’ve been
waiting for you for quite some time.” She spoke up frankly.
As soon as Xavier saw that it was Tiffany making her way toward him, he narrowed his eyes. “Miss
Larson, why do you want to see me?”
Several days ago, Tiffany told the press that she had been kidnapped by Matthew’s enemy. Although
that was just an excuse that she had come up with to explain the situation to the others, right now, with
her standing in front of him, it was quite clear that she was clueless about the truth.
However, this was as far from the truth as it was.
Although Tiffany didn’t have the ability to hide the truth, her father—Floch—had arranged for some men
to investigate this matter in detail. He had found out that the mastermind of this incident was Xavier’s
sister, Melissa.
Initially, Tiffany found this hard to believe, but after that, Conrad visited her frequently, so she beat
around the bush and sneakily got a confirmation from Conrad.
At that point, she realized that Melissa was the one who had sabotaged her.
However, Tiffany refused to let things slide.
Prior to this, Melissa and Veronica were very close friends, so it was quite likely that Veronica had
played a role in sowing discord, or perhaps it was quite likely that Veronica had cajoled Melissa into
making that decision.
Tiffany held a limited edition Hermès bag in her arms and approached Xavier. “Young Master Xavier,
I’m here to see you because I wanted to discuss a collaboration with you.”
She had stayed out of the public eye for the past half a month, and now that she appeared in public,
she seemed to have lost a significant amount of weight. She had an unhealthy pallor, but with some
makeup on, she looked quite healthy with rosy cheeks.
“A collaboration?”
Xavier leaned against the side of his car and asked with interest, “I’ve hardly ever interacted with you,
Miss Larson. We’re not of the same kind, so we would not be able to get along. What sort of
collaboration could we work on together?”
“Young Master Xavier, you’re being too close-minded.”
Tiffany surveyed the surroundings to ensure that there was no one around before mentioning to him, in
a lowered voice, “Although we’re not friends, we have a mutual enemy, so that would make us friends.”
“Oh. What do you mean by that?”
“I’ve heard speculation that Matthew’s men caused you and your sister to sustain serious injuries that
required hospitalization due to you approaching Veronica. Is this true?”
Tiffany pretended to be clueless about the incident during the wedding.
Right now, she had no one else to help her but herself, and she was powerless against the others, so
she needed to garner the support of someone.
Presently, Xavier seemed to be the only one suitable around her.
If she could strike a deal with Xavier, not only would she be able to deal with Matthew and Veronica,
but she could also find a chance to seek revenge against Melissa once she had obtained Xavier’s trust.
The torment she had been through all this while had resulted in a drastic change in her behavior, and
she was now much better at tolerating tough moments.
“How did you know that?” Xavier had his doubts about Tiffany.
“Everyone in our circle is talking about this, so it would be easy for me to find out.” Tiffany heaved a
sigh. “I admire you for your persistence in love, Young Master Xavier. I was exactly the same in the
past when I was deeply infatuated with Matthew. However, ultimately, I was cast aside by him too.”
Xavier felt slightly repulsed as she approached him.
“Do you know who else attacked me that day, other than Matthew?” Xavier replied with a question.
“Of course. It was Veronica, right?”
“Since you’re aware of this, you should realize that it was Melissa who sent men to deal with you.”
“Hahaha! Yes, Veronica and Matthew both mentioned this. However, I’m not stupid. I have never
crossed Melissa’s path, so why would she send men to kidnap me?”
Tiffany smirked self-mockingly. “I sent men to investigate the matter too, alright? There was no
evidence to prove that this was all under Melissa’s instructions, but Matthew insisted that it was her.
Why did he have to do that? It’s all for the sake of helping that b*tch Veronica cover up the truth! He’s
in love with Veronica and he was afraid that Old Mrs. Kings would be disappointed in Veronica if the
truth was exposed, so he shifted the blame to Melissa. Subsequently, he sent his men to injure you and
your sister to make the story plausible. With the public support, even without any concrete proof, as
long as he announced to the public that it was Melissa’s doing, she would be blamed for it regardless!”
Meanwhile, up till now, Tiffany had no idea of the reason behind Melissa’s action. The only possible
explanation was that Melissa had been taken advantage of by that b*tch, Veronica.
Xavier scrutinized Tiffany coldly, and he seemed to be trying to deduce Tiffany’s intentions with his
deep expression as he tried to bore into her eyes.
Unbeknownst to him, Tiffany was superb at putting on an act.
Her clear eyes were full of innocence and rage. She did not look as if she was faking it at all.
At that moment, Xavier was slightly confused. Could it be that she really has no idea about the truth?
“Young Master Xavier, are you doubting me? Hah!”
She smiled self-mockingly. “In the past, Matthew mercilessly canceled our wedding and brought me to
the hospital to get an abortion after the truth was revealed that I replaced Veronica and claimed to be
the one who saved his life.”
As Tiffany mentioned this, she became quite agitated, and she immediately rustled in her bag for a
medical report. She flung the report forcefully at Xavier. “Because of Matthew’s action, I can no longer
get pregnant and bear a child in this lifetime. I hate him! I hate Veronica as well, and I want to seek
revenge!”
In order to collaborate with Xavier, it was imperative that she gained his trust. At this point, she came
up with some half-truths, and paired with the medical report, it was the best way for her to gain his
trust.
Xavier listened to her speak through clenched teeth as he lowered his head to glance at the medical
report in his hand. The result of the report definitely showed that it would be quite hard for her to
conceive from then on.
“Are you really that confident that this is all Veronica’s doing?” He asked her probingly.
“Of course!”
She spoke up furiously, “The first night that I was kidnapped, Veronica sneaked into my house late at
night, and she entered my room from the balcony on the second floor. She personally held a knife to
my neck and attempted to take my life. If it weren’t for my parents’ timely arrival on the scene, I would
have died that night! Nonetheless, she also resorted to setting fire to my room before she left.”
