Chapter 587 You Mustn't Forget Me
Xavier's temples were also throbbing. He had already had a bad premonition earlier, that's why he brought Grace to Oakworth.
Now he realized that something really did happen.
If Jared came to Oakworth, then Oakworth was obviously not a suitable place.
Although this place was within Xavier's sphere of influence, he still worried, fearing that if he failed to protect Grace properly, something unexpected might happen.
Indeed, Skigeth was full of the Coleman Family.
"I'll take Grace and return to Skigeth as soon as possible. I'll also send people to search the entire city for Jared. I believe Dorian will cooperate as well. As soon as Jared shows up, he'll be caught immediately."
That's what was said, but Xavier was worried that Jared might not show up.
This person always hides in the shadows and operates behind the scenes. That's the most terrifying part.
Scott said, "Jared definitely won't come out easily, especially now that we all know about this matter."
"Then force Jared out." Xavier's calm and powerful voice rang out. "This matter is in my hands. Jared has so many properties, he can't ignore it. So he will definitely act."
"Okay, then we'll hurry over here as well. We'll go back with you guys when the time comes." Saying that, Scott and Steven were going to Oakworth as well.
They didn't see Grace, so they weren't at ease.
Xavier and the Coleman Family brothers talked for a long time before hanging up the phone. Grace also heard what they said.
Grace spoke out, saying. "Steven, Scott, don't worry yet. I'm fine right now."
She wanted to reassure her cousins and also knew how much they loved her.
"Be careful on your side as well. I'm worried that Jared might come after you as well. Things shouldn't be peaceful recently. Otherwise, let Grandpa go back to Aetheria first?"
Grace was worried about what might happen if something occurred. What if her grandfather couldn't bear the strain of it?
In Aetheria, things shouldn't happen, it seemed that Jared was fixated on them.
"Don't worry about us. Take good care of yourself, okay?"
"Understood. You guys are too, take good care of yourselves. I should be fine for now. I'll be careful as well."
After hanging up the phone with the cousins, Grace looked at Xavier.
Suddenly, she reached out her hand and hugged Xavier's waist.
Xavier didn't say anything yet, but Grace imitated Xavier's previous tone. "Don't move, let me hold you for a while."
Xavier remained motionless, allowing Grace to hold him.
It was already summer now, and Xavier was still worried about Grace being cold. He actually lifted Grace up directly.
Grace was also somewhat heavy, but Xavier could lift her with just one hand.
"How... " Grace still had both hands on Xavier's waist, now the entire body was in Xavier's arms, being held by Princess Xavier.
"Go inside the community and come home. Put on a coat and let me hold you for a while longer."
Xavier walked briskly towards the community and was about to reach home.
"Then let me down. I'll walk by myself."
"No, don't let me down. You want to hold you."
"There's still a lot of time in the future, and now the weight of you two is not too heavy for you."
"Not much time, a lifetime is too short. Today's is for today, and tomorrow's is for tomorrow. How heavy is my child? You should eat a little more every day, otherwise you'll be too thin."
"If I gain weight to become a two-hundred-pound fat guy, what will you do when I can't hold you?"
"That's my problem, not yours. It's definitely because I'm not strong enough. Even if you weigh three hundred pounds, I can still lift you."
Grace chuckled. If these words had been said before, she wouldn't have believed that Xavier could say them.
If it was when they first met Xavier, and she said to him. Xavier, can you hold me?
At that time, Xavier would probably reply. Get lost!
"You say, can we be together forever?"
Grace wouldn't let go. She was always worried about when she would lose Xavier.
"Of course we can."
"But what if one day you forget me, like Mr. Astor, who forgot my mother and even my mother left me alone?"
"There won't be such a situation. If one day I forget you, I will definitely remember you the moment I see you."
"This is what you said. I remember it. Even if you are eighty years old and get Alzheimer's disease, you mustn't forget me, okay? You have to keep me in your heart, in the most important place!" While speaking, Grace also reached out her hand and poked the spot on Xavier's heart.
Her fingers were touching his chest, and she could still hear the sound of his heart beating.
"Remember, this is all you. You can't forget."
"Agreed. If you forget, I won't need you. Take your child and marry someone else. Let him call someone else his father. Also, protect yourself well. I don't want a disabled husband. If you ever lose an arm or a leg, I will abandon you immediately!"
"Don't worry, you won't have the chance to abandon me."
The two of them went upstairs. Xavier unlocked the door and directly carried Grace back to her room.
The two of them embraced each other on the bed. Grace smelled Xavier's scent, and the unique smell on him made her feel at ease.
It was as if as long as Xavier was by her side, she didn't have to fear anything.
He was omnipotent in her heart.
Grace still couldn't understand why Jared would attack her mother.
"If Jane wanted my mother's life because Dorian didn't want my mother to be with Dorian and affect his status, then what was Jared after?"
"If Jared likes my mother and can't have her, then he shouldn't have done such a ruthless thing. He suddenly appeared and approached me. If it was just because he likes my mother, I always feel it wouldn't be like this."
This was more like, there was something on her mother's body that was fatal to Jared, so he wanted to wipe him out completely?
"Jane probably doesn't know much about Jared. Exactly how it is, now perhaps only Jared knows."
Grace nodded, her eyes gently closed.
Xavier patted her back, looking at Grace's face, and soothing her to sleep.
Grace hasn't slept well in the past few days. Now in Xavier's arms, she fell asleep involuntarily. While Xavier didn't want to close his eyes, he wanted to look at Grace for a little longer, even just for a second.
When Grace fell asleep, Xavier got up from the bed. He also had things to handle.
Since Jared wasn't found anywhere, Xavier couldn't be at ease until he was sure.
And Xavier was also in charge of the operation, allowing those foreign forces to directly attack Jared's industries. When problems arose with Jared's company, he couldn't believe that Jared could still avoid them.
