Chapter 590

Author: Light Breeze
With just one look from Rebecca, Xavier instantly understood. Without a second thought, he dropped to his knees before Julian with a loud thud.

His voice carried remorse. "Mr. Ziegler, everything in the past was my fault. I hope you can give me a chance to make up for it, to make things right with Gabriella and the kids."

Jerome looked uncomfortable. Xavier, who was about 6'3", had just knelt without hesitation, trying to win back his wife.

Beside him, Rebecca pretended to wipe the tears off the corner of her eye, putting on quite a show. She was proud of how smart and flexible her son was.

Julian glanced over at Willow, thinking how the Lunds were all great actors. Willow just kept quiet.

Of course, Julian wouldn't let Xavier keep kneeling like that. With people coming and going, it'd be bad if the housekeepers saw that.

After some thought, he said to Xavier, "Willow and I won't interfere with the young ones' matters. This includes Gabriella's matters, as well as Landon's.

"He

    In the hallway, Xavier leaned against the railing, watching as the black Rolls-Royce slowly pulled away. The faint red of its tail lights was soon swallowed by the city's dimmed neon, vanishing into the night.He stood there quietly, feeling that the street seemed so short. In just an instant, Gabriella was gone. They had a huge fight, and she left.They had gone their separate ways, not because they didn't love each other, but because of the past and the lack of understanding. He couldn't understand her aloofness, while she never understood the guilt he had been feeling.Xavier's eyes turned red as he pulled out his phone and found a photo to look at. The person in the photo was wearing one of his shirts, her skin pale and soft, resting gently on a white pillow.At that time, times were great. How did it come to this?Xavier clenched the phone tightly, his throat bobbing with restraint. The alcohol was making his head heavy. He stayed slumped there for a long time and didn't move

    Violet's eyes turned red. "Ms. Harper, that's not what I meant."Xavier frowned. "Gabriella, was that really necessary?"Gabriella lowered her gaze. After a few seconds of silence, she said softly. "You're right. It wasn't necessary."She let it go and turned to leave. But before she could walk away, he grabbed her wrist. Xavier had been drinking, so he wasn't entirely sober. Still, his instincts told him that if he let this encounter pass, he might never see her again.She wouldn't see him, nor would she let the children see him. She was truly ruthless.Xavier broke free from Violet and took advantage of being drunk to speak straight from his heart. "Gabriella, you just look down on Violet. If she were like Yvonne, would you even care this much?"You just played it cool, went abroad to give birth to the children, but you still ended up with me. Just because of Violet's background and her past, you can't accept that I'm with someone like her. Deep down, you're arrogant and carry

    Landon remained rooted to the spot. Gabriella tugged at his sleeve, just as she used to as a child. She called out softly, "Landon."That one word was laced with plea and vulnerability, causing Landon's eyes to turn red. He lowered his head and gently held her hand, then pulled her lightly into his arms.They had grown up together, lost their grandfather together, and now, Gabriella was ill.Landon fought hard to suppress his emotions and responded softly, "Okay."He led her away, and just as he was helping her into the car, Xavier called out, "Gabriella."She turned back and looked at him calmly, offering a faint smile. "Xavier, we're not meant to be."As the sky darkened, sorrowful funeral music drifted through the Ziegler residence, steeped in sadness.Gabriella stepped into the car. Xavier instinctively reached for her hand, but before he could touch her, the car door closed with a soft click. Through the window, he saw her thin face. Only then did he realize she'd lost a lo

    Inside the car, Xavier glanced at Violet. "I'll take you to the hospital."Violet looked uneasy. "Xavier, now isn't a good time for you to leave. Ms. Harper will be upset. Didn't you say you'd go win her back once I leave for Valois? I'm afraid of getting in between the two of you."Xavier kept his hands on the steering wheel, staring ahead in a daze. He knew that after what had just happened, there was no going back between him and Gabriella.If Ash and Lynn were old enough to remember, they'd probably hold a grudge against him too. But like he'd said earlier, he just couldn't abandon Violet and watch her die.He leaned back in the seat, feeling the urge to smoke. But since Violet was in the car, he dismissed the idea. He turned his head slightly and said, "To the hospital."The car drove off slowly. Half an hour later, they arrived at Heartwell Hospital. Violet had only suffered superficial wounds. After a quick treatment, Xavier took her home. Once he made sure she was alright,

    The silence was suffocating.Gabriella lowered her eyes and smiled faintly. "You're right. I can't go without a man. That's just how pathetic I am. I'm not like your perfect Violet."But what can I say? I was born lucky. I was born to Julian and Willow. I have everything handed to me. Even if I spent my life doing absolutely nothing, I'd still live in luxury. That's just how it is. I didn't come from a broken home. I don't have a drunk for a father, and I don't have a past riddled with trauma."Every word unmistakably pointed to Violet.Xavier's face went red with anger. "Gabriella, do you have any compassion?"She tilted her chin slightly. "Compassion, Xavier? You think I should have that?"He seemed to forget that Gabriella filmed "The Blind Well" with lofty ideals. She wanted a world where no woman would ever suffer the same fate as Violet's mother. She wanted Crimsonir to take a step toward true civility.And yet, in the end, the one who got hurt was Gabriella. Even so, she

    Spring was fading.It hadn't even been two months when Gabriella returned, bringing Ash and Lynn with her.Liam had passed away unexpectedly.Julian and Willow rushed back from Guscain with Gabriella, barely taking a moment to rest before throwing themselves into arranging Liam's funeral.Liam had never formally taken charge of Nebula Group, but ever since Dominic's death, he had been the one quietly handling all the affairs of the family. Now, with his sudden departure, the family had lost its backbone.Tyler, though still alive, was growing old and no longer capable of managing everything. Landon was already stretched thin overseeing two companies and couldn't afford to take on more.Everything had to wait for Julian's arrangement.Liam's death naturally devastated Melanie. Thankfully, Karen stayed by her side to offer comfort.
