Passion 325

Chapter 325

When Xavier arrived home, he couldn’t find Yvette anywhere.

He was slightly angry. After all, when he left the house, he always left a note for her. But when she went out, she never told him about it.

The caretaker that Yvette had hired for Viola was cooking in the kitchen.

When she saw the frustrated Xavier calling for Yvette from time to time, she couldn’t help but say, Ms. Snyder probably isn’t coming home in the next few days. She told me to take care of Ms. Xenos.”

When Xavier heard the stranger’s voice, he asked, “Who are you?”

“I’m Ellie Hemington, I’m the caretaker Ms. Snyder hired to take care of Ms. Xenos.” Ellie came out and realized that Xavier was blind.

She immediately said, “Mister, I’m going to have to charge more for taking care of two people. When Ms. Snyder hired me, she only said I needed to take care of Ms. Xenos. She never mentioned anything about taking care of a blind person.”

When he heard her calling him blind, his face darkened a lot. “I don’t need anyone to take care of me.”

“Why wouldn’t you need anyone taking care of you when you’re blind? I don’t care. You’re going to have to pay me more!”

Xavier’s gaze turned cold instantly. “Get out!”

Ellie was shocked by him yelling so suddenly. “Why… Why are you shouting? Ms. Snyder hired me. No one can fire me other than her. Besides, who’s going to take care of Ms. Xenos if you fire me?”

Ten minutes later, the bodyguards hiding in the shadows dragged Ellie out.

Viola woke up when she heard the commotion outside. She looked out the window and saw Ellie yelling outside, “Forget about not increasing my pay. How dare you drag me out? I’m going to call the police on you and sue you all!”

No one had ever dared to cause a scene in front of Xavier before, and he had never seen a country bumpkin like her going crazy like this either.

It was giving him a headache. He came outside and said, “Stuff her mouth and toss her on the street.” Ellie was in her 50s. Although she was no match for the bodyguards, she could get shameless and act crazy. She also didn’t know who Xavier was, and she thought he wouldn’t dare to do anything to her. So, she tried to scam him.

“Quch! This is injustice! Someone, help! He’s trying to tear my clothes apart… This blind man is bullying a housewife!”

The neighbors came out to check out what was going on when they heard her voice. Before the bodyguards could stuff her mouth, she bit them.

Xavier clenched his fists tightly when she said some nastier stuff. He was infuriated.

At that moment, Viola unexpectedly showed up. She struggled to walk to Ellie and slapped the latter.

“My son–in–law is young and handsome. Even if he’s blind, he’s never going to be interested in an old hag like you! Why don’t you look in the mirror? I can’t believe you want to aim for the sky when you’re nothing but a worm in the dirt!”

Suddenly, the crowd around them burst out laughing.

Viola took out the money she had in her pocket and tossed it in Ellie’s face. “Here’s your payment for today. Get out and don’t let us see your face again.”

Since they were all living in the same village, Ellie unwillingly stood up and took the money after being scolded. “Your blind son–in–law is too scary. There’s no way I’m going to work for your family again!”

She kept mumbling under her breath as she walked away. The neighbors couldn’t help comforting Viola and Xavier.

“Viola, we wouldn’t have noticed how handsome your son–in–law was if you hadn’t said anything about it. He looks like a celebrity!”

“That’s right! He’s tall and good–looking.”

“That caretaker you hired wasn’t a kind person at all. I heard that she always scams the elderly. It’s a good thing that you chased her away.”

“Your son–in–law’s friends look handsome as well. Do they have girlfriends? Shall we introduce some for them?”

The people there thought Xavier’s bodyguards were his friends. Suddenly, the bodyguards felt shy, and they looked at Xavier.
