He Never Loved Me Until the Day I Finally Left Him novel Chapter 920

In his younger years, Xavier had indeed been the grandson Old Mr. Zane kept close by his side.

But then, one day, Xavier suddenly vanished.

Not just from the public eye—even the Zane family couldn't find a single trace of him.

That was what baffled everyone.

And that was exactly where Beau had uncovered Xavier's secret.

"Choosing beauty over the empire," Beau laughed. "The woman Xavier loves is his own sister, the Zane family's adopted daughter."

Listening to this, Sebastian's brow furrowed slightly.

"But here's the kicker—she's not entirely just an adopted daughter. You know how these wealthy families operate. They love finding an excuse to bring their illegitimate spawn back home, as long as they favor them."

"So, when the truth came out, their relationship imploded. But Xavier didn't give up. To protect the woman he loves, he had to find someone he could marry."

"Who that person is doesn't matter, as long as it proves he's cut ties with the adopted daughter. It's all a show for Old Mr. Zane."

"After all, if he disobeys, that woman is probably as good as dead. There's a big difference between a legitimate heir and an illegitimate daughter."

Beau analyzed the stakes.

If things went south, the first one to die would definitely be the adopted daughter, not Xavier.

None of the other successors in the Zane family were up to par.

Ultimately, they still had to rely on Xavier.

Naturally, they couldn't allow anything to happen to him.

Following that logic, his pursuit of Helena made perfect sense.

After all, Helena was an Everett.

Regardless of whether she was divorced or not, her status as an Everett was undeniable.

Given Xavier's situation, no one would dare object to a match with Helena.

Secondly, Xavier probably wanted a child.

That way, he could act with absolute impunity.

"He's pretty ruthless," Beau remarked casually.

Sebastian didn't speak. He understood Beau's implications perfectly.

There was definitely a hidden motive behind Xavier's pursuit of Helena.

Even though Helena had never publicly revealed her true identity.

It wasn't exactly a well-kept secret either.

With Xavier's status, how could he possibly pursue a woman without doing a background check?
