Chapter 50
Today was the day of the Fulton family gathering.
In the afternoon, Xavier wrapped up work early and headed back to Fulton Manor.
He figured that by now, Lily must have calmed down from their recent conflicts.
This family event could serve as a chance for her to admit her mistakes.
His Maybach pulled into the driveway, and as he got out, he realized he didn't see Lily's car.
Then he remembered that her car had been totaled.
The image of her disheveled state, with her forehead wrapped in a bandage, flashed through his mind.
If she behaved well today, maybe he would buy her a new car.
After all, he wasn't a stingy man.
As he walked into the mansion, Xavier removed his shoes and coat. Then he made his way further inside.
In the living room, Edith and Shane were sitting and having tea. Both of them turned to glance toward the
entrance.
"Where's Lily?" Shane asked. He frowned slightly when he saw no one trailing behind Xavier.
Lily hadn't arrived yet?
Xavier's brow furrowed as he pondered for a moment. "She should be here soon," he replied.
Normally, Lily would have arrived by the morning,

A stormy expression darkened his eyes as he loosened his tie and headed upstairs to speak with Tamara in the
study about swork matters.
An hour later, he emerged and paused at the second-floor landing to glance downstairs.
The scene remained unchanged. Only Shane and Edith remained in the living room.
Xavier turned back and went into the bedroom. He pulled up the surveillance feed on his phone.
It was nearly 6:00 pm, and the villa was bathed in dim light and shrouded in silence.
Lily wasn't at home.
He patiently rewound the footage and discovered that shortly after he had left the other day, she had departed
with her suitcase.
It seemed that as long as Hayden's situation remained unresolved, Lily wouldn't be at peace.
He called Timothy.
"Track down Mrs. Fulton's whereabouts over the past few days."
Timothy's heart sank at Xavier's tone. "Yes, Mr. Fulton."
Within ten minutes, Timothy reported back. "Mrs. Fulton has rented an apartment at Bayview Gardens. Today,
she went hiking with Ms. Devereux."
Since he had only checked Lily's activities from the past two days, he hadn't discovered her plan to start working
at Lupier next week.
Nor did he uncover that the car picking her up today didn't just have Maryanne in it but also Terence.
She had even gone as far as renting a new place. This signaled that she was more serious this tcompared to
before.
Timothy hesitated before continuing, "These past few days, Mr. Joyner has been callingnon-stop, asking me
to find a way to get Hayden out, or else..."
His meaning was clear enough.
"Or else what?" Xavier asked coldly.
"Or else he's going to push Mrs. Fulton to divorce you," Timothy replied with apprehension.

Could she really be following Bobby's wishes?
Xavier was incensed. He snapped the pencil in his hand cleanly in half.

He couldn't take any risks. If the Joyners tried to use the hidden marriage as leverage, it could bring unnecessary
trouble to Nova Group.
After ending the call, Xavier tossed the broken pen into the trash and got up to head downstairs.
