Betrayed By The Hero, Loved By The Lord novel Chapter 124

Chapter 124: Helping hand (3)

Ruby grabbed Trevor’s hand. "It might be better for you to stay inside. There are countless men outside who serve him. We can send a servant to the court to handle this. We must be smart."

Ruby knew it was very likely the paper Xavier had was not forged but they could ignore it and claim the one they had was real. Why did Selene need to ruin everything by marrying a lord? It was all going so well.

"He will not leave," Trevor said, certain of it. "I need you to go and calm Paige down. We can’t make her upset."

Ruby knew that but for now, she needed to focus on Trevor’s safety. They had welcomed a devil into their home.

"Selene is out there. She’s too scared to come to us-"

"I can hear you quite well," Xavier interrupted the conversation. "Careful when speaking about her."

It seemed there was only one smart person in this home since Trevor’s wife left hopefully to gather her things.

"I can’t wait an hour," Xavier said, having better things to do with his time. "Lucas, have the others start pulling everything off the walls and throw it outside. We’re giving them a helping hand."

Ruby saw red after Xavier’s offer. "This isn’t settled yet. We can’t trust that what you have is real when we have our papers."

"I’m curious how the Harrisons would feel if they knew about your little lover. You shouldn’t only be concerned about losing this home but also finding everything you sold or tossed away when you moved here. You can’t get rid of what doesn’t belong to you so you will either have to search for it or pay Selene back," said Xavier.

Trevor laughed since it was foolish to think they would pay for anything they threw away or got money from. Why would he have kept anything belonging to his uncle when the man tried to kill the king?

It pained Xavier to uphold his promise to Selene since he couldn’t lay a hand on Trevor inside the home. Their marriage was going too well for it to be ruined over making a mess in this home.

Ruby opened her arms wide to try to block the guards as they came in. They could not ruin her home like this. "You cannot touch my things like this."

Xavier found it funny Ruby said that considering she had touched Selene’s things.

Xavier stepped outside as his guards went inside.

Trevor followed Xavier as his mother tried to stop the guards from coming inside. "Lord Blackthorn!" He called out.

Xavier didn’t respond since he had already wasted too much time speaking. Speaking was useless at a time when his actions sent a better message. Still, he turned to face Trevor.

Trevor did not like Xavier’s smile now that they were outside. Did Xavier think he won?

Trevor knew he could not bribe a man like Xavier to let this all go so he had to try the next best thing. "Selene already lives on your estate. To put this home in her hands would be a waste since she would not have any use for it. I am slowly building back up the Harrison name so it would be best if she dropped this matter. She is causing tension in the family again."
