Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 107

"You are?" She asked.

"Can't you recognize my voice?"

At the other end of the phone, even though the man's voice sounded young, it gave her a heavy feeling. It sounded as if it came from the abyss, suffocating her.

The voice was both familiar and unfamiliar to Josephine. She had heard it before, but she only heard it once a long time ago. At that time, it was also the man who took the initiative to call her. He only said one sentence. "My brother needs a woman who will stand quietly behind him. You are a suitable choice. I am very satisfied."

"Mr. Xavier?" Josephine hesitated to speak the name in her mind.

"Don't be so courteous. Soon, you will become the legitimate Madam Josephine of the Godfrey family, who is also my sister- in- law. You can just call me Xavier."

His polite words did not evoke even the slightest bit of enthusiasm. On the contrary, it sounded even colder than before.

The person on the other end of the line was Xavier, Theodore's younger brother, who was also the second son of the Godfrey family. Before Theodore took over the Godfrey Group, Xavier was the carefully educated heir by Mrs. Godfrey. If it wasn't for the accident seven years ago, he would be the president of the Godfrey Group now.

"Xavier," Josephine braced herself to change the appellation. She thought that she was good at interacting with the relatives of Theodore, but when she faced Xavier, she still felt powerless, even though it was just a phone call.

She added, "When Theodore went to visit you earlier, I wanted to go with him, but I heard that you're not in good health, so I didn't disturb you."

"It's alright. I don't really like to see outsiders. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

His cold and indifferent words made Josephine's greeting seem a bit unnecessary.

There were many rumors about Xavier in society, but they were all buried in the past seven years. People's memories were always very short, and the young man who had once been known as a business genius had long become unknown.

The Godfrey family hardly mentioned Xavier, and the servants were no exception. Theodore would visit him from time to time, but Mrs. Godfrey acted as if she didn't have this son. Every time Theodore mentioned him, she would be unhappy.

Josephine had sent someone to investigate in private, and the results of the investigation made her want to avoid this second son of the Godfrey family even more.

Depression, aggression, and self- harm; these were all diagnosed by the doctors. Xavier's residence was also far away from the downtown area. He had to change his caretakers several times a month, and many of them were seriously injured at his place, but the news was suppressed by the Godfrey family with money.

Thinking of this, the hairs on Josephine's body stood up on its end. She shivered and said stiffly, "Well, Xavier, why did you suddenly call me?"

"We will meet at two o'clock tomorrow noon. I have something to talk to you about."

Josephine froze for a moment. "Me... Alone?"

"Yes, and you will not tell my brother."

"That isn't quite appropriate, is it?"

No matter what, Xavier was Theodore's younger brother. If Josephine, Theodore's fiancee, met Xavier alone behind his back, it would be bad if someone with ulterior motives were to spread the news.

Xavier sneered. "It's not quite good for my brother to know about what happened seven years ago as well."

Josephine's face changed.

Seven years ago?

"I don't know what you're talking about," she gritted her teeth.

'You do.'

Xavier didn't speak further. "I'll send you the time and place."

"Hello?"

Looking at the call that was hung up, Josephine's expression was extremely complicated. When she thought of the graduation party of the Foreign Language Department seven years ago, she felt anxious.
