Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 586

Adrienne was talking nonstop to Xavier, mostly about school. She mentioned that she had to perform later 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 him company.

"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, chocolate, and cakes..." She asked for a few items.

Alastair 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, then come with me." Yantsey reached out his hand and held Adrienne's hand as they walked out.

Alastair stayed behind, but it was rare for the living room to be so quiet.

"Alastair, 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 Alastair was a very strict person, but he was still a child.

"Alastair, you can do anything you want here and eat whatever you like."

"No, eating too much at night will make my stomach uncomfortable," Alastair refused again.

Xavier chuckled. "You're a kid."

"Yes, but there are two types of children, the sensible and insensible ones," Alastair responded in a deep voice. He did not need others to teach him about how to be a kid.

Xavier became interested and said, "Alastair, I'm very curious about how high your IQ is."

"198," Alastair 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 the company.

Xavier raised his eyebrows and found it rather amusing.

The next day, Xavier went to the company. 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 our company participate in the case."

Xavier listened, but he didn't answer. Instead, he looked at the documents in his hand once more.
