Mr. Ford Is Jealous novel Chapter 680

Chapter 680

He had initially thought Xavier would be a threat, but who would’ve guessed Xavier would take the initiative to terminate the engagement. 

Chris was relieved, but he couldn’t show it. “I don’t want to be involved with your matters. Just as long as you don’t make Dad mad, I’m fine with it.” 

Xavier smiled and said, “I’ll bring my girlfriend to the banquet and introduce her to all of you.” 

Wendy sneered at the side when she heard this. “No wonder you want to cancel the engagement.” 

Xavier merely smiled and put on his jacket. “I wish all of you could help me put in a few good words at the banquet so Dad wouldn’t be too mad.” 

After that, he turned to Weston and asked, “Can we have a word?” 

“I’m not interested.” 

“Don’t be like that.” Xavier put on a face, as if his words had hurt him. “You’re not interested in my matters but you are in Guinevere’s, right?” 

Weston didn’t say a word and shot him a glance before standing up. “Let’s go.” 

The two went to the back garden, leaving only Wendy and Chris in the living room. 

Chris was buried deep in his thoughts. 

Wendy glanced at him and said, “There’ll be a good show at the birthday banquet. If Xavier announces the termination of his engagement with the Taylor family, Dad might beat him up.” 

Warren was getting old and was no longer in the core power circle. Most of the decisions were left to the younger generation. He would step down in a few years, but most shares were still in his hands. Now, only Xavier posed a threat to Chris and Weston. 

Without the Taylor family’s support, Xavier was nothing. 

Chris pondered aloud, “Could it be that he really has no intention of fighting over the property?” 

Weston looked at him. “Your source of information is quite good.” 

“I would’ve lost so badly to you if I didn’t have all this information.” Xavier laughed. “No matter what, they are outsiders after all. How about you and I work together?” 

Weston sneered. With irony in his eyes, he asked, “What can you bring to the table?” 

Xavier restrained his smile. “Earlier, I said I would cancel the engagement between Zeta and me, so you don’t have to worry that I will fight with you to get the family property. As for the project in the western suburbs … you and Guinevere aren’t married yet, so she’s still an outsider.” 

“This is what you wanted to tell me?” 

“Think about it.” 

“There’s no need to consider.” Weston interrupted him.“ I already had a deal with the Cohen family. I’ll go with the original plan.” 

He wouldn’t go back against his promise to them.
