Her Heart Her Terms (Lily and Xavier)

Chapter 356

Hazel turned around and wanted to chase after Hayden, but bobby stopped her.

"Why are you going after him? Hayden isn't the problem, it's Lily! What did you say to her? Did she agree to meet with Mr. Thompson?"

Not only did Uly not agree, but Hazel hadn't even had the chance to tell Lily who Bobby had arranged for her. However, Hazel didn't dare to be honest.

"Honey, this Bruce Thompson... Don't you think he's way worse than Xavier? Even if Lily did meet him, she wouldn't be interested."

"Does she still have a choice?" Bobby sneered. "Does she really think she can marry into the Devereux family and become Mrs. Devereux? Stop dreaming""

Bobby felt the idea of marrying into the Devereux family was impossible after some consideration. A family with such a reputation and status would never accept a divorcee into their family.

"But Bruce has a terrible reputation, won't Lily suffer it she marries him? Hazel was somewhat besitant.

Bobby's expression hardened as he slammed his hand on the table. "She insisted on divorcing Xavier without caring for our family's survival, so why are you so worried about her? If you care so much, go live with her. You can quit being my wife!" Hazel quickly nodded. "Honey, don't be angry. I'll listen to you, and I'll try to talk to Lily again."

She had agreed, but Bobby was still angry. Alter barely taking a few bites of the delicious dishes on the table, he started going over again with Hazel about how important it was to have Lily meet Bruce Outside the private room, Sarah eavesdropped on the entire conversation. She knew Bruce Thompson

The Thompson family had business dealings with Nova Group, and she was the one in charge. Her point of contact was Bruce's father, Marlon Thompson.

This generation of the Thompson family was doomed to be ruined by Bruce, who was an absolutely spoiled rich kid. He dabbled in anything and everything, like drinking. gambling, and womanizing. When Marlon forced him to work at the company, he lost billions in just three days. He had cursed at suppliers and attended many clients and was not cut out for business at all.

According to rumors, Bruce had contracted some sexually transmitted diseases at a young age. Marlon was almost 60 years old and had started going through IVF with his wife to try for another child. If Lily did end up marrying Bruce, her life would be ruined.

There was a glint in Sarah's eyes. Coincidentally, the Thompson family recently had some business deals to discuss with Nova Group She silently turned and left, returning to the private room and sitting next to Xander d toward Sarah

"Where did you go? What took you so long? Xavier's eyes were slightly red. It seemed he had been drinking a lot. He shifted and leaned i

Sarah's heart stirred, and a smile of delight crossed her face. "I wasn't feeling well after a few drinks, so I went outside for some air. You don't need to worry-

"You Get a few drinks for me." Xavier didn't let her finish speaking and filled her glass,

Perhaps he hadn't been socializing much lately, and his tolerance for alcohol had dropped. After just one glass, he felt somewhat light-headed, and he even thought he heard Lily's voice just a moment ago.

It was right when Sarah stepped out. The door was closing slowly behind her, and Lily's cold, clear voice had carried in.

He pinched between his brows and leaned back into the chair, closing his eyes to rest.

Sarah looked at the filled glass, and surprise was evident in her eyes. As the vice president, it was her duty to help under with the drinking

But she was a women, after all, and Steven Cowell was looking at her with ill intentions. There was no way Xavier wouldn't have noticed. "Xavier, I don't want to drink with Mr. Cowell. He's a bad character," Sarah pleaded.
