Chapter 224 Daphne had said that to see if Xavier would get jealous.
But she also wanted to look for someone else. After all, there were a lot of people with wealth and power in Tirion.
With her looks and her reputation, it wouldn't be hard for her to marry someone from a great family. She shouldn't ruin herself for Xavier.
"I understand." He was calm as he got in the car right away. Then, the car drove away in front of her. Daphne stood there alone, feeling extremely upset.

"It looks like he still cares about you. If Yvette hadn't returned, he would've married you by now." That was a lie to comfort her. Yvette had been gone for five years, yet Xavier had never once thought of marrying Daphne.
"I don't think he'll marry me. After all, I'm an orphan who isn't worthy of him." Daphne looked disappointed. Yvonne thought so as well. After all, Xavier only treated Daphne well for a reason. He probably wasn't willing to marry her because he was out of her league.
"Don't say that, Daph. Don't you know? Wealthy people like us think you're really impressive. We all have to rely on our parents, and you're the only one who has worked hard on your own. If he doesn't want to marry you, someone else will do it. So what if you can't have him?" Yvonne comforted her.
Daphne nodded.
Suddenly, a long Lincoln stopped in front of them. A man's elegant face cinto their view when a window was opened. "Alright, my boyfriend is here to pickup. See you." Yvonne happily approached the car.
Daphne silently watched her get into the car and asked Laura, "Who's Yvonne's boyfriend?" "He's Trevor Lumber. His father owns a fashion business," Laura answered.
Daphne looked away after a long time.
When Xavier returned to the mansion, Yvette didn't ask him about Daphne.
"Xav, didn't you say you would bringto visit Noah today?" she asked.
"Let's go." He didn't forget his promise. After returning from the award ceremony, he had clooking for her.

"No." He rejected her request right away. He was worried about letting her go alone. He knew that the only reason he had been able to make her stay with him was Noah.
"In that case, after we get there together, can I have salone twith him? I don't want to be watched by someone the whole time." She e stared at him, and he couldn't say no anymore. Soon, they left Lane Mansion together. Meanwhile, Noah was talking with Zachary on the phone at Fortian Manor. "Did you really take more than seven billion dollars from him, Zac?" "Yeah. But I still haven't figured out a way to transfer it to an overseas account."
If Zachary transferred it away just like that, he would definitely be exposed. Xavier was a capable man as well. He hadn't filed a police report or told anyone to look into it because he wanted Zachary to fall into his trap.
Suddenly, Noah thought of a great idea. "You can use the address here." Zachary was confused at first. Then, he was soon over the moon. "Why didn't I think of making him investigate himself? I'll do it tonigh X
