Chapter 506
Landon paused, looking puzzled. "What were you trying to say? I couldn't quite catch it," he expressed.
Alexander briefly glanced at his confused colleague, a smirk appearing at the corners of his mouth. Without saying another word, he left the meeting room, leaving Landon on the spot, frowning. Alexander headed directly to the parking lot. He was going to visit the Xavier family.
"Alexander, Wayne called you twice. He wants you to go home."
"Drive."
Kyle trembled slightly and chose to shut up. He wondered whether Alexander would sign the contract with the Xavier family today.
Meanwhile, Wayne was mad at Alexander for not answering his calls. He called him again.
This time, Alexander answered, "Is the meeting over?"
"What's up?"
"Nothing too serious. This morning, I had a conversation with Quinn. Even though you two are divorced, she is still your sister. She is getting married now, don't you want to witness it?" said Wayne. Wayne's intention was clear to Alexander. It was a veiled threat. He wanted Alexander to cancel the meeting with the Xavier family and return home. Or Quinn would be getting married that very day. Alexander chuckled, "You guys are quick. But what difference can I make? Do you want me to go home and offer my best wishes to them?"
Wayne, feeling a bit irritated, held back his emotions. "Don't you think you should at least return and meet her new husband?"
"As her ex-husband or brother?"

"That doesn't matter. So, are you coming back or not?"
Alexander replied casually, "I am busy at the moment. If she is getting married today, so be it. My return won't make a change anyway, will it?"
This response momentarily left Wayne speechless. What could he say now? Should he tell Alexander that if he came back, the marriage could be canceled?
Wayne wasn't genuinely planning to make Quinn marry someone. He just wanted to stop Alexander from making the deal with the Xavier family.
But Alexander was right. If he returned and stopped the wedding that day, Wayne would stop him with the same trick the next time he was about to visit the Xavier family. Unless Alexander rejected the Xavier family, Quinn could always be arranged to marry someone else.
Wayne was forcing Alexander to choose between the Xavier family and Quinn.
"Very well, go on."
Knowing Alexander's stance, Wayne saw no need to continue the conversation. He doubted that Alexander would actually ignore Quinn's predicament. Throwing his phone aside, Wayne's gaze turned to Quinn, a hint of resentment tainting his smile. "Did you hear that?"
Quinn pursed her lips. Although she hadn't overheard the conversation, she could assume what happened.
Alexander had known that Wayne wanted to arrange a marriage for Quinn, but he had no intention to stop it.
She shouldn't be surprised though, he was now distant and cold. He hadn't been the person who loved her and cared for her since a long time ago. Wayne rubbed his forehead in annoyance. Right then, the butler entered and told them that Quinn's date had arrived.
