Chapter 201
“Xavier, how can you talk to your older brother like that!” Charles Vanderbilt said sternly.
“Xavier, how can you talk to your older brother like that!” Charles Vanderbilt said sternly.
“You’ve been the pride of your parents since you were young. How could I have changed? No matter how much I’ve changed, I’m still nothing compared to you,” Xavier said self-deprecatingly. “I have a friend over there. I’ll go and greet him. You can have a good family gathering.”
“Xavier!” Charles suppressed his anger.
He could not really lose her temper in front of so many guests.
They did not know why the two brothers’ personalities were so different. They were both born to the same parents. Damian had been smart and sensible since he was young. He had never let them worry. The only time he rebelled was when he wanted to give up the Vanderbilt Group to do scientific research. Although they were unwilling, they did not want to stop him from following his wishes, let alone serve the country. In the end, they chose to support him.
As for Xavier, he had been ignorant and incompetent since he was young. When he was young, he would fight and the teachers would ask to see his parents. After he grew up, he did not work properly. He would either drink or pick up girls. Charles did not dare to imagine what would happen to the Vanderbilt Group if he really handed it over to him in the future!
Their only hope now was Quintina. They hoped that she could help Xavier manage the Vanderbilt Group.
“Are you coming or not?” Xavier asked Quintina
Quintina was not as willful as Xavier. Now that the family was having a gathering, it was naturally not good.
to leave.
“I guess you can’t bear to leave either, Xavier mocked Quintina.
He left alone.
He walked straight to Ethan and the others.
Ethan was with Stella, Joel, and Leopold.
Kylie seemed to have left.
“Hey. Isn’t this tonight’s birthday boy?!” Joel teased.
Xavier glanced at him. “I thought you weren’t coming today. Why didn’t you bring your girlfriend along?”
“My girlfriend is shy.”
“Right.” Xavier looked down on him.
“By the way, is that your brother? The talent working for the country is finally back Joel looked over.

Xavier ignored him.

“After all these years, you’re still jealous of your brother.”
“Why would I be jealous?” Xavier was furious.
“You
must be angry because I hit the spot.”
“That’s enough!” Xavier raised his hand and was about to punch Joel.
Actually, he wouldn’t really beat Joel up.
It was just a joke between friends.
Joel blocked it.
“Ouch.” Joel cried out.

“Don’t you think that you’ve become girly after getting a girlfriend?” Xavier was speechless. He had only touched Joel’s hand once. Did he have to scream so lewdly?
“My hand is injured,” Joel explained.
As he spoke, he showed them his scratched finger.
“It’s just a small injury.” Xavier was disdainful. “How did you get it?”
“Cooking with my girlfriend.”
Xavier glared at him.
“What are you looking at? It’s romance. Do you understand?” Joel’s face lit up. “She doesn’t know how to do it, and neither do I. We are just exploring it together. This kind of fun is something that people like you who think with your lower body can’t understand.”
Ethan turned to look at Leopold.
Leopold remained silent.
“Yes, I don’t get it. No one can understand.” Xavier was speechless. “Ethan, can you understand? Leopold, do you?”
“I get it.” Ethan and Leopold did not speak. Stella said, “It’s indeed a wonderful thing to cook with the person you love.”
Joel felt good when he heard that.
However, because it came from Stella’s mouth, he did not respond.
Stella felt a little awkward.
She also knew that Ethan’s childhood friends did not have a good impression of her. She said gently, “It’s getting late, Ethan. Why don’t we go back first? You have to accompany me to Toville early tomorrow

morning.”
“Okay,” Ethan replied and said to Xavier, “Let’s go.”
Xavier nodded.
He also knew how depressed Ethan had been during this period of time.
Ethan left.
Joel was also in a hurry to leave.
“Why are you leaving so carly?” Xavier was speechless. “The banquet is over. Let’s go for a drink.”
“No, I’m not going. I want to go back early to accompany my girlfriend. I’m afraid she’ll be lonely by herself.”
“Joel, can you stop acting like a hopeless romantic? Disgusting.”
“Sour grapes.” Joel didn’t care at all.
“Get lost.” Xavier was speechless.
Joel didn’t mind. Anyway, he was very happy
now.
“Wait.” Xavier stopped Joel again.
“I am really not going to a nightclub with you…”
“Take this.” Xavier suddenly gave Joel two plasters.
Joel’s eyes almost popped out seeing this.
“You actually have such a thing on you. Xavier, are you gay? Are you interested in me?”
“Crazy.” Xavier was speechless. “Get lost and go find your wife.”
Joel took Xavier’s plasters and felt a chill run down his spine.
After Joel left, Xavier looked at Leopold. “You have something on…”
“It’s fine. When you’re done, I’ll drink with you.”
Xavier thought he had misheard.
The person who hated nightclubs the most actually agreed to accompany him to a nightclub!
During this period of time, Leopold was really abnormal!
Of course, Xavier did not refuse. He left before the banquet ended.
Charles was naturally furious.

Of his two sons, one could make him brag to the heavens, and the other made him unable to raise his
head.
After sending off the guests, Quintina followed the Vanderbilt family back to the family villa.
In the car, Donna suddenly said earnestly, “Quintina, you and Xavier are going to be married for three years. Have you considered having a child?”
Quintina was stunned on the spot.
Children? They had never even slept together. How could there be a child? Quintina thought to herself.
“I know that Xavier can be a handful, but you know Xavier’s personality. It’s not good to continue playing like this. It’s said that men have a sense of responsibility when they have children. Perhaps it’ll be better.”
Donna did not even have the confidence to say it herself.
“Also, you also know that your brother is focused on scientific research. Although he brought his girlfriend back this time, I really can’t guarantee that h
will really get married and have children. The Vanderbilt family has such a big family business, so we need an heir. I don’t dare to have too many expectations for Xavier. Instead, I want to place my hopes on the next generation.”
Donna sighed as she spoke.
Quintina actually understood them.
Moreover, the Vanderbilt family had indeed treated her well.
She nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll try to communicate with Xavier. If he’s fine, we’ll have a child as soon as possible.”
“Quintina, it’s been hard on you,” Donna said helplessly and with heartache.
In the minds of the Vanderbilt family, Xavier was beyond saving and there was no hope.
Actually, it wasn’t just the Vanderbilt family who felt this way.
Quintina felt the same way.
