Caleb Mamet furrowed his brows, secretly clenching his fist.
Ha! So that’s how he appeared in Mrs. Mamet’s eyes.
Caleb said nonchalantly, “I’ll drive you.”
But Xaviera Evans sat down on the couch next to him and said leisurely, “Let’s wait a little longer.”
Eight o’clock in the evening.
All the students had arrived at the Evans household, but the main character of the banquet still hadn’t arrived. Mag Evans was stomping her feet anxiously, “Sis, she isn’t going to bail, is she?”
Rose Campbell sighed, “I think Xaviera must have some urgent matter to attend to, that’s why she didn’t come on time. She didn’t mean to keep evervone waitinz.”
Everyone frowned, complaining, “Xaviera is really rude! She invited us to the banquet but she’s the first one to be late.”
Mag bit her lip and tried to appease them in a soft voice, “Let’s not rush, my sister will definitely come. Let’s wait a bit longer…’
A student sneered, “As Miss Evans, she has no manners at all. It’s different growing up in the countryside! ”
“Mag, you don’t need to defend her. She doesn’t care about your feelings.”
Mag’s face turned red in a rush, “Don’t say that. My sister definitely didn’t do it on purpose, listen to me explain..
Bang!
Someone slammed their wine glass down harshly, spilling wine all over the table.
Rose glanced coldly, who was this lacking foresight, not even sparing a face for Mag? Upon closer inspection, it was Irene Hamer. She had to swallow her words.
Behind Irene Hamer was the influence of the Hamer family from the Imperial Capital. She naturally would not dare to offend. Moreover, Irene herself was a musical genius. Therefore, Libanan University invited her to be a guest professor to bring honor to the university.
Mag invited her because of her unique status. With her around, it would be easier to deal with Xaviera, without having to worry about Albert Sullivan.
Therefore, all Rose could do was force a smile, not daring to say anything bad about Irene.
Mag was taken aback for a moment, Irene Hamer and Xavier Hamer both had the same last name, was there a relationship between them?
No, impossible!
Irene was from the Hamer family in the Imperial Capital, while Xavier had been abroad all the time. It must just be a coincidence, there could not be any relationship!
Everyone was silent. Irene said leisurely, “This cup is nice.”
Derek Evans smiled, not expecting that this cup would catch Irene’s eye. So, he flattered, “I bid 500,000 dollars for this cup. The one in your hand and the one in Mag’s hand are a pair.”
Rose chuckled, “Yes, this is the birthday gift that Derek gave me twenty years ago. I thought about bringing it out since we have distinguished guests today.”
Everyone gasped in admiration, how loving the Evans couple was, spending 500,000 dollars on just a pair of cups, it was so extravagant.
Who would have known, Irene said indifferently, “The white porcelain is intricately carved, the color is clear, indeed worth 500,000 dollars. But twenty years ago, Mr. Evans didn’t have any business, how could he afford such expensive cups?”
There was silence around the room.
Irene remained calm, speaking lightly, “I think these should be the precious items bid on by Xaviera’s mother, Mr. Evan’s original wife, right? The fact that you can still keep these cups shows that Mr. Evans still has feelings for his previous wife, how affectionate and righteous you are!”
Everyone looked embarrassed and all eyes turned to Rose.
If they recalled correctly, Rose just said that this cup was a birthday gift from Derek Evans to her.
The attendees were all ordinary students, no matter if it was the Evan family or Irene, they didn’t dare offend. Therefore, everyone lowered their heads to drink coffee in silence, not daring to make a sound.
Derek Evans quickly looked at Madam Evans. After all, the old lady was experienced and calculated, sighing lightly, “I’m getting old and can’t handle the stress. Where is Xaviera? We agreed on half past seven, but it’s well past eight and there’s still no sign of her…”
With that. Madam Evans deflected the attention to Xaviera-
Mag’s eyes lit up. It didn’t matter who the cup belonged to. The key was why Xaviera still hadn’t appeared. It was so rude to keep a group of people waiting for her!
Madam Evans sighed in helplessness, “It seems Xaviera is still blaming me… Ah! Derek called and pleaded with her, I thought she would come back. Looking at this situation, it’s still uncertain….”
