Xaviera couldnt help butugh.
This despicable couple kept on insinuating that she was a mistress kept by someone else.
She knew that Charles knew Caleb and might even know Zara Woods.
So Charles must have been a friend or rtive of Zara and came here to stand up for Zara.
A mocking look appeared on Charless face, Miss Evans, whats the matter? If you dont apologize, dont me me for being rude. By then, you wont be able to be a mistress!
The salespeople didnt dare to make a noise, Xaviera sneered, her eyes cold. Oh? Mr. Salma really has such capabilities?
But it seems that there isnt a wealthy family named Salma in Libanan.
However, the Woods Group went bankrupt and moved abroad a few years ago.
Theres a Chen family rted to the Woods family by marriage. Could Mr. Salma be from that family?
Xaviera eximed, So Mr. Salma, who just returned from abroad, has such great abilities?
An awkward atmosphere spread.
Xaviera exposed Charless background in front of everyone, causing his face to turn a ghastly white.
Bitch!
Chloe cursed and screamed, Arent you just a mistress? If it werent for that man, you might still be sleeping around everywhere! Charles let you apologize to give you some leeway, but dont take it for granted!
Charles nodded his head, his face slightly softened.
Who would have thought that Xaviera would sneer and speak up again. Miss Kim, I didnt say anything about you, why did youe running over?
You said you were Mr. Salmas girlfriend, but why did I see you with different men? From the looks of it, youre the one whos someone elses mistress! It must be hard for you to apany different men every day, right?
Chloes face turned pale with fright.
Everyone looked towards Chloe, from what Miss Evans implied, was Chloe not Mr. Salmas girlfriend?
Chloe was gnashing her teeth in rage, she screamed, Bitch! Youre ndering me! Youre a mistress yourself, but youre framing me as one too! Ill tear you apart! Ah
She lunged at Xaviera with ws bared, but before she could touch her, she was kicked away and sent flying beforending heavily on the ground, feeling as though her entire body had fallen apart. At this moment, an authoritative voice came.
Who said shes a mistress?
Everyone followed the voice, and the person who approached had an overwhelming oppressive aura, steady footsteps, and the kind of presence only a king would have.
Caleb Mamet appeared nonchnt, his indifferent gaze sweeping over everyone before finally resting on Chloe.
His deep eyes, filled with endless coldness, sent chills down peoples spines. Chloe could only feel a strong sense of fear engulfing her heart..

Amber Kim was the daughter of an ordinary family, but she always wanted to enter the upper ss, so she had seen many photos of rich kids, but she had never seen this man before, so he couldnt be a big shot!
Her boyfriend was no other than Mr. Salma of the Salma family. Theres no way she would be afraid of him. So she cursed loudly, Who the hell are you? Dare to kick me? Ill kill
p!
Charles Salma raised his hand and pped her hard, gritting his teeth and saying, Shut up!
His face was ashen, and his body was shaking like a sieve.
CalebCaleb Mamet?
Xaviera Evans had clearly arrived with Yigol Mamet, so why was Caleb here too? Was he also here for the barbecue?
Caleb Mamets eyes were deep and profound, and he looked at Amber Kim, his words ringing: Xaviera is my wife, notparable to some wretchs mistress! Amber Kims face was full of shock, and she even forgot to breathe.
She couldnt understand why Charles Salma was so respectful to this man.
Charles Salmas face turned sullen, and Calebs words insulted both of them.
The wretch he mentioned was Charles!
And the mistress was Amber Kim.
But he didnt dare to refute, nodded his head obsequiously, and said with a ttering smile, Mr. Caleb Mamet, when did you arrive?
As soon as they heard the name Mr. Caleb Mamet, the hearts of everyone present skipped a beat, and it felt like their heartbeats had almost stopped. Caleb raised an eyebrow, Do I need to report to you why I came here?
Charles Salma was scared pale, his forehead covered in cold sweat, and he stammered and said, You you misunderstood, I, I
When Zara Woods had a good rtionship with Caleb earlier, it meant that his cousin also had a reputation in the upper-ss society, everyone who saw him was respectful, when had he ever been so humiliated?
Calebs icy gaze fell on him, You just said you wanted to make my wife not even a mistress?
Charles Salma was frightened and stuttered in exnation, I I didnt know she was your wife, if I knew I wouldnt dare to be rude to her, please spare me
Caleb spoke indifferently, You wouldnt know unless she says it? I dont believe Zara Woods didnt tell you that Xaviera has married me.
Charles Salma gasped!
He was just about to exin when he heard Yigol speaking confusedly, Sister Zara knew Xaviera and my brother got married, if she didnt tell you, how could you possibly know Xaviera? And how could you know the rtionship between Xaviera and my brother?
Charles Salma thought Xaviera was being kept by Caleb, either he was intentionally saying that, or the person who told him was intentionally misleading.
These words scared Charles Salma so much that his legs went weak, and he suddenly knelt in front of Caleb, his face full of horror.
At this moment, Caleb is simply too terrifying. He didnt make any moves, just standing there was enough to make people wet their pants.
Charles Salma really couldnt believe that Caleb would care about a woman. He didnt even look up to Zara, so how could he like someone from the Evans family?
Could it be that this woman has some tricks up her sleeves?
Cousin, Chloe, you Caleb?
At this moment, a delicate female voice came.
Zara Woods walked slowly over and looked at everyone present with surprise, Caleb, why are you here too? How did my cousin and Chloe end up kneeling down?
Charles Salma, as if grasping a lifesaving straw, rushed to Zara Woods and said, Sister! Please help me, plead for me!
Zara Woods nced at Charles Salma, then Amber Kim, and finally at Xaviera Evans.
She slowly approached Xaviera and spoke softly, Xaviera, what did my cousin and Chloe do wrong? I see Chloes skirt is dirty, were all friendscant we just let it go? Have them clean up, and well leave right away!
Charles Salma nodded frantically.
Xaviera looked at Charles Salma, who was kneeling on the ground, a sneer in her heart.
Why dont you keep shouting? Werent you very capable just now? Howe youre so scared that you knelt on the ground when you saw Caleb Mamet?
Zara Woods pretended not to know anything, but she must have been hiding and watching for a long time, right?
What all friends? Who is friends with her!
Xaviera was just about to argue when Caleb spoke slowly, Miss Woods, we are not friends.
Zara Woods expression stiffened.
Caleb continued, Even if it was a friend of mine, they couldnt make my wife suffer, let alone someone who isnt..

Trantor: 549690339
Zara Woods, her face full of embarrassment, managed to force a smile, saying,
Caleb, dont get me wrong, everyone is watching, lets not make a big scene
Charles and Chloe are well-known figures in Libanan too, lets give them some face, otherwise, others would say that Xaviera is unrelenting even when she is right, which would tarnish her reputation.
Calebs expression turned slightly cold.
Xaviera felt both outraged and amused. How could this woman be so brazen!
Amber Kim had bumped into her and then demanded an apology from her!
Then this pair of jerks rushed up and insulted her, called her a mistress!
Now Zara Woods has the audacity to say shes been ungracious?
How does she even have the face?
It seems like being the decent ones are Zaras exclusive right, while she is somehow the viin?
Xaviera, enraged, began to retort, Miss Woods
Zara.
Unexpectedly, Yigol Mamet spoke up first.
His disappointed gaze revealed his thoughts: Zara, it was Amber who bumped into Xaviera first, calling her a mistress, then Charles insisted that she should apologize. What gives you the right to tell Xaviera to forgive?
You dont even know what happened. Better not jump into conclusions!
In Yigols eyes, Zara had always been gentle and kind. But her apparent grace now concealed a tant attempt to make Xaviera forgive.
Zaras nails were digging into her palm, she was gritting her teeth in anger.
Why was Yigol siding with Xaviera now?
Why couldnt she interfere?
Seeing Zara go silent, Yigol gave a bitter smile: Zara, if you have no response, then it means Im right.
Zara looked up at Caleb and Yigols cold expressions, her body shivered as she felt a tightness in her chest. Choking up, she stepped forward and said softly, Yigol, youve misunderstood I was just upset, Charles is my cousin and I know him well. It hurts me to see him and Chloe kneeling on the ground. I shouldnt have made conclusions, I shouldve understood the situation first. With head lowered, Zara let a few tears roll down.
Her face spelled innocence, but Yigols eyes didnt hold any sympathy for her anymore.
Caleb spoke at a deliberate pace, asking, So, Charles is a renowned figure in Libanan too? This would tarnish Xavieras reputation if word got around?
Upon hearing Calebs voice, Zara seemed to cheer up, feigning a grievance: Caleb, its my fault, I asked Miss Evans to forgive without understanding the situation, but I did it for everyones sake
The way the Woods and the Salma family carries themselves is rather impressive! I see, they too amount to big shots in Libanan!
Calebs words pierced Zara and Charles with chill, leaving them pale-faced.
Zaras body trembled.
She couldnt understand why Caleb was acting like this towards her?
Caleb wasnt in love with Xaviera, why else wouldnt he have held a wedding ceremonv or announce their marriage?
Clearly indicating Caleb didnt hold Xaviera in high regard. If thats so, then why was he protecting Xaviera at the expense of her and Charles?
Charles understood at once; without an apology, he wouldnt be able to escape.
He pulled Amber Kim over and knelt in front of Caleb: Hurry up and apologize!
Ambers wide-eyed, her heart brimming with aplex mix of anger and embarrassment, she remained silent.
Bitch! I told you to apologize! You offended Mrs. Mamet, quickly admit your mistake!
If Caleb decided to me the Salma family and the Woods family, then they were in huge trouble, so the best option was to thrust the me onto Amber Kim.
Xaviera knew what Charles was thinking. He wanted Amber to take the me so that he and Zara could wash their hands off this matter.
What a wishful thinking!
At this point, Yigol spoke up again: Charles, answer me honestly, are you aware that Xaviera is married to my brother? Or do you believe she is a mistress that my brother is keeping?
Upon hearing this, Zara instinctively tensed up.
Yigols expression was stern, he said, Dont lie to me. If you didnt know Xaviera, how would you know she is my brothers woman? Outsiders dont know that my brother is married, let alone that the woman by his side is Xaviera!
Theres only one possibility, it was someone else who told you, and that someone is Zara!

Trantor: 549690339
As Yigol Mamets voice fell, silence pervaded the air.
He continued to ask, Did Zara only tell you that Xaviera was being kept by my brother and not that they were married, so thats why you despised her and thought it wouldnt matter if you offended her, since she was just a mistress and my brother wouldnt care?
Everyones gaze fell on Zara Woods.
Upon hearing his words, Zaras heart convulsed.
Her face turned pale with fright, and her body couldnt help shaking uncontrobly.
Xaviera hadnt expected Mr. Yigol Mamet to ask these questions, since he had always regarded Zara as a friend and the two of them had a good rtionship. But now, his words were full of doubt, one by one.
If Zara admitted that she hadnt told Charles about their marriage and only said that Xaviera was being kept by Caleb, then she would be harboring ulterior motives and deliberately leading Charles to make things difficult for Xaviera.
How could Zara continue to y the weak and maintain her image in front of the Mamet brothers?
Yigol Mamets gaze was deep, Zara, you once told me that you liked Caleb, but you wanted him to be happy even more. As long as he and Xaviera lived in harmony, you would sincerely wish them well and promised not to destroy their rtionship.
But now? You are secretly plotting, spreading rumors that Xaviera is a mistress, and directing others to target her!
Zara was terrified!
It was over! It was all over!
She felt that everyones burning gaze was about to incinerate her.
I, I didnt Charles, say something, I told you long ago that they were married, I didnt say Xaviera was a mistress, help me prove it! Zara begged desperately.
Charles broke out in a cold sweat, his fists clenched tightly, interwoven with fear and helplessness.
Zara wanted him to take the me
But if he didnt admit it, insisted on confronting Zara, the Woods family would be done for.
Zara was the lucky star for both of their families, and it was because of her rtionship with the Mamet brothers that the Woods and Salma families survived until today.
Charles hesitated for a moment, his face resolute as if facing death, Zara told me that Xaviera and Mr. Caleb Mamet were a married couple. Just now I saw Chloe being wronged, and in a moment of panic, I
Yigol looked surprised, as the truth was about to be revealed, but Charles denied it.
He looked up at Zara standing nearby and saw a fleeting smile on her lips.
Caleb snorted, You and your sister seem to care about each other a lot. Zara, is there anything youd like to say?
Zara forced herself to calm down, I told Charles long ago about your rtionship with Xaviera. I didnt expect him and Xaviera is your wife, how could I say such things about her?
Now, she had to make Charles take the me; otherwise, Caleb wouldpletely despise her.
Calebs eyes narrowed, Zara, tell Jayden Woods this C either expel Charles from the Salma family or let your two families disappear from Libanan! Zara shuddered, not expecting Caleb to be so ruthless.
Charless face turned deathly pale, expelled from the Salma family?
He had done nothing more than insult Xaviera, but now he had to pay such a heavy price?
Initially, he had only wanted to help out Zara, but how did things turn out like this?
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed sharply. Was it Zara who had instructed Amber Kim to hit Xaviera on purpose?
The punishment of being expelled from the Salma family was too severe for him. Why should he be responsible for Zaras conspiracy?
Realizing this, Charles hurriedly argued, Mr. Caleb Mamet, I didnt
Charles! Zara interrupted with a dark face and a shout, Xaviera is Calebs wife, how could you say she is a mistress? You are disrespecting her. But I know you were just talking nonsense at the time.
However, the mistake has already been made, and its only right that Caleb expels you from the Salma family. Otherwise, my brother wont let you off either!
Charles looked at Zara incredulously and in disappointment.
He and Zara had always been close, but he never thought that when disaster struck, she would push him to the front line.
Zara clearly understood that Caleb had already suspected her, but even so, she absolutely couldnt admit it!
Charless lips trembled slightly, and then heughed manically.
Forget it, no amount of exnation would help, and if he exposed Zara in front of Caleb, how would Jayden deal with him?

Jayden Woods had no choice but to kick Charles Salma out of the Salma family to save both families.
Charles saw the truth toote, that he had been used by Zara Woods.
He stared nkly, bitter smiles lining his lips, I deserve this! I shouldnt have insulted Mrs. Mamet. Its not about ZaraMr. Yigol Mamet, dont misunderstand her.
Zara looked wronged, Yigol, you really misunderstood me. Dont you know
Know her?
Yigol Mamet used to think he knew Zara well, but now the woman in front of him felt like a stranger.
He sneered coldly, Sister Zara, Im not a fool anymore. I wont be deceived by you again.
You know very well whether you told Charles or not. However, I remember you saying you hated mistresses who destroyed families the most, so let me ask, are you close with this Amber Kim?
Zara, confused, blurted out, Of course, shes my friend Chloe.
So why did you let your cousin get into a rtionship with your friend? As far as I know, Mr. Salma should have a fiance, right? So you tolerate your friend being a mistress? Is it because you hate Charles fiance?
Zara wanted to get rid of anyone she despised, which is why she let Amber Kim entice Charles and be a mistress.
That is also why, although Zara imed to hate mistresses, she tried every means to be Caleb Mamets woman, knowing he was married.
Zaras face turned pale with anger when Yigol exposed her lies so bluntly.
Frustrated, Yigol left the room, with Xaviera Evans following immediately behind him.
Zaras weak voice called out after Caleb left, Caleb
Steve Price, inform Jayden Woods that if Xaviera does not forgive Zara, we will suspend business with the Woods family.
Calebs voice was cold, and Steve Price quickly responded before pulling out his phone.
Unbelievable, Zara looked up; if Caleb suspended their business with the Woods family, it would be their end!
Zaras voice shook, Caleb!
But he didnt even bother to acknowledge her as he strode away.
When Xaviera returned to the restaurant, the barbecue on the table had gone cold. Steve ordered the waiter to prepare a fresh batch. Yigol leaned back in his chair, head downcast, looking unhappy.
Xaviera sat beside him, Feeling down?
Yigol tearfully looked away, his eyes reddening.
Xaviera knew Yigol had long considered Zara his friend, and was heartbroken discovering she was both calcting and deceitful.
She tried to offer him food, but he stubbornly refused. So, she reached over and picked up a piece of meat for him.
His face somber, Yigol asks, Xaviera, you knew what kind of person Zara was from the first time you met her, right?
Xaviera hesitated, careful not to hurt his fragile emotions.
He took the me for the sake of both the Salma and Woods families. Turns out, Im the only fool here, always being deceived by her! He choked up with emotion, Shes always been close to Caleb. I always thought her gentle and kind, treating her like a sister. Who knew she was just using me!
Xaviera didnt know how to console him.
Yigols anger rose, I finally see her true colors. Im so disappointed. How could she do this?
Its only me who didnt know. Im too naive.
Angerced his trembling voice, You must beughing at me, thinking Im useless, deceived by such a woman. Ive known her for so many years and never saw her true face.
Xaviera looked at him with heartache.
Even the arrogant and willful Mr. Yigol Mamet had shown such a vulnerable side, especially when he admitted his naivety; it was simply heartbreaking.
Xaviera knew Yigol appeared wild and unrestrained, but his values were righteous.
He was aware that his mother had been a mistress, and he had been criticized for it, so he deeply despised mistresses.
He was only manipted by Zara in the past, not that it was his fault C he had been too innocent.
Xaviera sighed softly, Yigol. Mr. Yigol Mamet slowly looked up..

Xaviera Evans leaned closer, her eyes full of sincerity, Zara Woods took advantage of you not because youre too stupid, but because youre too innocent. Its not your fault.
She knew you were innocent, and thats why she took advantage of you. You thought she was kind to you, so you treated her genuinely without questioning her intentions. In a way, this is a good thing, as it means your view of the world is still pure.
Yigol Mamet was captivated by her gentle voice. Xavierasforting words made him feel enlightened, and his previously dull eyes brightened.
What Xaviera said was heartfeltYigol was just a simple, big boy who would give his all to those who treated him kindly. Thats why Zara targeted and used his innocence to her advantage.
However, after hearing this, Yigols tears fell down his face.
Xavieras mouth twitched in panic, unsure what to do next.
After returning home, Xaviera felt a tinge of unease. Knowing how much Yigol enjoyed painting, she thought maybe the several paintings she had could cheer him up.
She hastily rose to find them and found a few dusty paintings in the storeroom.
The next morning, she urgently delivered them to Yigol.
Xaviera rubbed his head, Yigol, Im finding you more and more likable. Though you caused me trouble when we first met, youre still willing to ept me and even bought the clothes I designed. Im delighted. I know you love painting, so Im sending you these paintings. Although theyre dirty from being stored, at least theyre still paintingsplease dont be sad.
Yigol had already moved on from his sadness, but he wasnt too interested in the paintings she mentioned.
He wouldnt settle for just any painting, and Xaviera probably couldnt find any outstanding ones. However, he would still ept them because of her good intentions.
But when Xaviera removed the canvas cover
Yigols eyes widened, You stored these paintings in the storeroom?
These were paintings by the genius artist Xavier Hamer! How could they be casually stored away like that?
Xaviera: ?
These rejected, subpar paintings had been tossed into the storeroom by Xavier, her brother. She picked out a few rtively clean ones to give Yigol, hoping they would distract him from his sorrowful thoughts.
Was Yigol really so astonished?
Meanwhile, at the Lowen Clubhouse.
Sean Price respectfully said, Mr. Mamet, Miss Zara Woods called to offer you two tickets to Xavier Hamers painting exhibition. You could take your wife with you, and she also apologizes for the previous incident. Caleb Mamets movements stopped, his expression icy cold.
Xavier Hamers painting exhibition?
He said indifferently, Tell her I dont have time.
Sean knew his boss wouldnt go. Its just a painting exhibition, after all. If he really wanted to attend, the organizer would personally deliver the tickets, so there is no need for Zara Woods to do so.
Besides, epting the tickets would mean that he had forgiven Zara.
Zara, who had been waiting for a call, received such a response, leaving her grinding her teeth in anger. She forced an embarrassed smile, Alright, goodbye.
After hanging up, she slightly furrowed her brows.
Zaras younger sister Suki curiously asked, He still doesnt want to forgive you?
The two were at a caf. Zara was depressedSuki knew her sister had a falling out with an important friend, so she apanied her to clear her mind.
Suki was somewhat surprised, Hes still not willing to go to Xavier Hamers painting exhibition? Is he even aware of who Xavier Hamer is?
Xavier Hamer, the genius painter, had elusive artworks often in high demand. There would be huge crowds at his exhibitions, with even the President bringing his family to attend. Additionally, those who could attend his exhibitions were generally from the upper ss.
The Woods family had pulled all their strings to obtain two exhibition tickets, only to be rejected. The ticket to Xavier Hamers exhibition was a gateway to the upper ss, where many big shots could be encountered.
Since the man was not willing to go, it seemed he was unaware of Xaviers status and the value of the ticket.
Suki scoffed, Hes clearly a bumpkin. How did you be friends with someone like that? He doesnt even know who Xavier Hamer ishe must be nobody important.
Although Caleb undoubtedly knew about Xavier Hamer, Xaviera might not. She might never have attended an exhibition and couldnt understand the value of the paintings..

Caleb considered that Xaviera Evans would lose face if she went, so he refused the two tickets.
It must be like this!
Zara Woods suddenly felt relieved and smiled, Forget it, since he doesnt want to go, lets not force him. Maybe hell forget about this in a few days.
Lowen Clubhouse.
Xaviera heard about Xavier Hamers art exhibition and was a little surprised,
His exhibition? In Libanan?
Caleb nodded, Do you want to go?
As long as she wanted to go, he could make a call and someone would personally deliver the tickets to his hand, there was no need to ept Zaras favor.
Xaviera looked down and said lightly: Forget it.
She had been looking at Xavier Hamers paintings since she was a child, and it was nothing new to her.
Why didnt her fourth brother inform her when he came to Libanan? Why did it seem like he was sneaking around?
In the blink of an eye, they hadnt seen each other for a long time, and she felt a little uneasy.
Xaviera went upstairs straight away to change her clothes and then hurried out.
Sean Price quickly asked, Mr. President, should I follow the madam?
Caleb shook his head indifferently, No need.
Sean was worried, Its getting dark outside, and if the madam goes out at this time and encounters a bad person Xavier Hamer will protect her.
Seans face was full of surprise.
Who? Xavier Hamer? The madam actually knows him?
Sean was very curious, but remembering that Steve Price had his sry deducted because he was too talkative, he swallowed his words.
Who knew that at this time, Steve Price pulled him aside and whispered in his ear, Brother, this is not right! It sounds like our madam is going to meet Xavier Hamer?
Sean Price: Youre not going to bring me into your problems, are you? Brother, if you were the wife, would you like the president?
Sean Price: Why would he like the president? Hes not a madam? More importantly, why is he thinking about these things?
Steve Price said excitedly, If I were the wife, I would definitely not like the president. Hes too cold and aloof. Look at Xavier Hamer! Hes a genius painter, and artists are generally more romantic. The gap between the two is pretty obvious!
Sean Price: Wow, his brothers really amazing at making assumptions.
Steve Price said helplessly, The madam is so outstanding, shes a trantionpetition champion, a scriptwriter, and even a hacker. Now look at the president, hes poor and only has money, and hes so straightced!
The madam is going to see Xavier Hamer tonight, there must be something going on! Dont you think the president has a bit of a greenish tinge to his head? As his assistant, I have to think about his marriage!
A momentter, the two brothers returned to Calebs side. Sean tried to persuade him, Mr. President, shouldnt I go protect the madam after all? Caleb raised an eyebrow and looked at Steve Price, Do you want to go out?
Sean was a little nervous, No, no The madam didnt bring her purse. What if she needs money?
She cant use Xavier Hamers money, either!
Caleb took his time, Cant she use Steve Prices money?
Sean was puzzled, Of course! We are brothers, whats wrong with giving him money?
In that case, Xaviera can use Xavier Hamers money. Did Steve Price say something to you? It seems he doesnt care about his sry anymore, now go clean up the backyard.
Sean Price: .
On the other side, Xaviera had just contacted Xavier Hamer and they agreed to meet at the entrance of the mall.
After a while, Xavier Hamer and an old man walked over. Xaviera jumped excitedly and ran towards them, Fourth Brother! Master nd!
The old man was Mr. Page nd, a superb doctor who could also y more than a dozen ssical instruments. He wore a long robe and looked like an immortal.
Xavier Hamer quickly stepped forward to greet her, catching her before she steadied.
Youre a grown-up now, and still bouncing around.
Xaviera was overjoyed, Why didnt you let me know you wereing?
Xavier Hamer said casually, I just happened to pass by Libanan, and I hadnt had a chance to tell you.
Actually, Xavier Hamer had always been thinking about his junior sister, and he hadnt told her at first because he wanted to surprise her.
Xaviera smiled gently. These brothers and elders treated her extremely well and were the closest people to her..

Its not often I get to see you, so let me take you shopping. Xavier Hamer said.
The three of them entered a branded womens clothing store. Xavier seemed busy and took a call on the side, asking Xaviera Evans to pick something first.
Sis, who are you nning to go to Xaviers art exhibition with? I have two tickets.
Xaviera smiled slightly, it seemed that Xavier was quite popr.
Then another woman said, Im going with my brother, theres nothing I can do since they wont ept money.
Xaviera suddenly felt that the voice sounded familiar.
Suki Woods defended her sister, Sis! Xaviera definitely doesnt understand art.
Shes been living in the countryside since the Evans family abandoned her.
Theres no way she could attend such an elegant event like an art exhibition. Even if she went, she would be like a bumpkin who doesnt know how to appreciate it.
Xaviera:
Its true that enemies always meet. She didnt expect to run into Zara Woods here.
Page nd frowned unhappily. Xaviera didnt understand art?
She had been looking at Xaviers paintings since she was a child and had be tired of them. Was it really necessary for her to attend an art exhibition?
Suki Woods continued to mock loudly, Sis, is she even worthy of being your friend? Its an honor for her that you would even talk to her. You shouldnt associate with her, its a disgrace to be around people like her.
She grew up in the countryside and is just a wild girl. I think she should stay in the countryside forever, never fit for the spotlight.
Do you need to apologize to her? Is she even worthy? Youre Miss Woods!
Page nds face was full of displeasure. Over the years, they had never said a harsh word about Xaviera, but today he heard these two women saying a lot.
The Woods family seemed to value Xaviers art exhibition a lot?
If Xavier knew how they talked about Xaviera, he would definitely kick them all out!
Page nd frowned, Xaviera, they
He was about to rush up to argue with them.
Xaviera quickly stopped him, Master nd, if you use them now, they wont admit it, and will probably turn things around on us instead. Well lose our dignity instead.
Page nd thought for a moment, turned his wrist and took out a silver needle between his fingers.
Whoosh!
Ah! My back hurts! Suki Woods screamed and jumped up immediately. She looked around but didnt find any suspicious people.
However, Zara Woods caught sight of Xaviera not far away.
She walked over slowly, pretending to be enthusiastic, Xaviera? What a coincidence! Is Caleb not here?
Suki Woods felt a sharp pain in her back. She then saw Zara Woods greeting Xaviera.
So this was Xaviera Evans!
Being in pain and irritated, she finally found a ce to vent, Sis! So this is the bumpkin who looks down on Xaviers art exhibition!
Suki Woods voice was harsh, attracting everyones attention.
Looking down on Xaviers art exhibition? This woman is too arrogant!
Zara Woods stopped her, Suki, dont talk nonsense. Xaviera doesnt want to go to Xaviers art exhibition not because she looks down on it, but maybe because she doesnt understand art.
Xaviera was speechless.
At the same time, Mr. nd turned his wrist again, and Zara Woods followed with a scream, her face full of shock.
Were it not for being in Libanan, he would have killed the two of them to take revenge for Xaviera a long time ago. Just pricking them with a needle was letting them off easy.
Xaviera, let me take you to buy some gifts.
Xaviera hooked her lips and nodded.
Zara Woods suddenly caught on to something, asking sarcastically, Wait! Xaviera, you havent introduced this gentleman yet Why does he want to buy you gifts? You and him
She looked at Xaviera meaningfully as the onlookers showed disdainful nces.
Suki Woods snorted coldly, Tsk! Shes really shameless! Even at this age, she can still bring herself to do such things. All she sees is money, even seducing old men!

Mr. nd took Xaviera into the womens clothing store, bundled up all the clothes she liked, and the salesperson busily packed them, a touch of envy shed across her face.
Although the old man was a bit old, he was very generous, spending so much money without even blinking an eye.
And it was evident that he had been handsome in his youth.
After packing the clothes, the cashier reminded them with a smile, Mister, there are a total of fifteen sets of clothes, amounting to 320,000. Will you be scanning or using a card?
Mr. nd:
Whats there to scan? Where are the horses?

Page nd hesitated for a moment, but quickly decided that it didnt matter what kind of horse it was, as long as he could swipe his card.
He reached into his pocket, only to suddenly realize, with a frown, that his card was not there; he had given it to Xavier Hamer to hold on to!
The cashiers smile slowly faded, and Xaviera Evans took out her own card and handed it over.
At this moment, Suki Woods seized the opportunity to sarcastically remark, Ha! So this old man doesnt have any money after all. And he still has the audacity to keep a mistress when moneyless? Xaviera, are you blind? Be careful not to end up with nothing in the end!
Xaviera frowned.
Page nd, indignant, said, Those who babble nonsense will enter Hell of Tongue Pulling after death.
Hearing this, Suki Woods sneered disdainfully, Old man! Are you from the mountains? Hell of Tongue Pulling? I dont believe it! You dress in ancient costumes, looking weird and strange. You must be a big liar!
Xaviera took back her bank card, her expression turning cold.
She had initially not wanted to argue, but this woman dared to insult Master nd?
Xaviera took out her phone, calmly signed a contract, and transferred the payment to the other party, while a trace of a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Qiqi, dont speak like that, maybe he just forgot to bring his card.
Immediately after, Zara Woods turned to Xaviera, apologizing with a guilty expression, Xaviera, I was wrong about what happened before. I wanted to give you tickets to Xavier Hamers art exhibition, but you didnt ept them. Or I can buy you clothes instead. This time, Ill pay. But since youre already married to Caleb, you should keep your distance from other men.
Zara Woods slowly walked up to the cashier, softly saying, Hi, Ill pay for Miss
Evans. Just swipe my card, please.
The cashier instantly greeted her with a smile, Great! Miss Woods is so generous!
Some people, if they dont have the money, shouldnt pretend to be rich! Since
Miss Evans is married, its really fickle of her to go shopping with other men!
The cashier handed Xaviera the bag of clothes and gave Page nd a dirty look, Psh, what a pretentious show-off.
Xaviera looked at those shopping bags, her voice cold, I dont want the clothes.
Zara WOOdS spoke gently, Xavlera, dont be ponte to me. consider It an apology, and I hope you wont hold a grudge for what happened before.
Im not being polite.
Xaviera appeared nonchnt, Do I need to pay for the clothes from my own store?
Page nds expression was filled with pride. Our little Xaviera is so domineering!
Zara Woods smile stiffened, and Suki Woods who was next to her couldnt help butugh out loud.
I didnt hear wrongly, right? You said this store is yours? Do you think Im stupid? How could this store be yours?
Just now, I bought this store.
Xaviera instructed the manager, Everyone else, leave.
The cashier trembled in fear, turning pale.
Suki Woods stared in disbelief at the scene. The shops owner had changed so quickly?
Zara Woods frowned, Xaviera, are you saying you just bought this store now?
Did you use Calebs money?
Everyone looked at her with suspicion.
Zara Woods bit her lip, hesitating to speak, As Calebs wife, theres nothing wrong with you spending his money, but
Isnt it a bit too much to spend Calebs money just to save this mans face?
Suki Woods finally caught on and yelled, Xaviera! Youre messing around outside with your husbands money! Hell kill you if he finds out!
Seeing Xaviera remaining silent, Suki Woods pressed harder, You not speaking means you admit it! Your father has already severed ties with you, and now your husband is supporting you. Instead of pleasing your husband, you dare to buy a store for an old man? Youre insane!
Zara Woods spoke with sincerity, Xaviera, lets pretend I didnt see anything this time. I wont tell Caleb, but I hope youll cut ties with him soon, so as to not destroy the family because of this man.
Slowly walking up, she gently advised, Wake up, for Calebs sake, break up with him!
Xaviera nced at the man not far away, her voice ice-cold, Zara Woods, how much longer are you going to keep pretending?
Zara Woods eyes widened in shock, her face full of grievance..

Suki Woods stormed over, yelling, My sister was only trying to help you, to prevent you from going astray, and you use her of putting on airs? Youre already married and yet you go messing around with older men, pretending to be virtuous when youre dirtier than anyone else!
I suspect youve been with more than one man? How many have you been with? Do you have some disease? My sister kindly advised you, and you took it as harm
Ha! What talent the Woods family has. The mans voice came over with a sarcasticugh.
Caleb Mamets eyes were deep, his face ice-cold as he walked towards them with long strides.
Page nd watched the coldness on the mans face, wonderinq if he had
caused some trouble.
He initially only nned to send Xaviera a few clothes, who wouldve known hed be mistaken for her lover. If Xavieras husband was jealous, thatd make thingsplicated.
Maybe he should head back to the mountains; city women really were vicious!
Page nd was about to make a call to Xavier Hamer.
Suki Woods looked at the man approaching, antagonistically yelling, I was talking, and you interrupted me? Who the hell do you think you are?
Caleb Mamet radiated an imposing presence that made Suki Woods scared, but refusing to lose face, she defiantly yelled, Xaviera, where did you pick up this outsider of a man
Suki! Zara Woods immediately stopped her, turning pale.
Being the young miss of the Woods family and enduring many battles, she forced a smile and gently said, Caleb, youre here too.
Caleb Mamet gave her a cold nce and turned his face away in disgust.
Sean Price distantly interjected, Miss Woods, only those close to the president are allowed to call him Caleb. You have nothing to do with him, so you should just call him Mr. Caleb Mamet.
Zara Woods choked back a response, her heart pounding.
Hearing his name, Suki Woods went pale, trembling in fear, MrMrMr.
Caleb Mamet?
Was this the man in charge of the Mamet family, Caleb Mamet?
Suki Woods greatly regretted her previous outburst. She nced at Zara whose face was still calm.
Caleb Mamet should not hold it against her; after all, they were doing this for him. It was Xaviera who had been messing around behind his back, and they were merely giving her advice!
Caleb Mamet stood beside Xaviera, leaning down slightly, his voice calm yet domineering, Mrs. Mamet, you have my apologies for being wronged.
Page nd felt awkward. He was considering how to greet Mr. Mamet, but was scared Mr. Mamet might misunderstand his rtionship with Xaviera.
Before Page nd could open his mouth, Xavieras cold face suddenly crumbled.
Caleb, I feel so wronged! Miss Woods imed to be your friend, and even though she was doing it for my own good, she didnt listen to my exnation and just lectured me. I didnt want to shing with her. Moreover, if I said something unpleasant, itd affect your friendship. Zara felt nauseous; Xaviera really knew how to y her part!
While iming that she didnt want to harm their friendship, she insinuated usations with every word.
Caleb Mamet scowled, not bothering to look at Zara, Sean Price.
Sean Price understood, Miss Woods, you merely know Mr. Mamet, you cant exactly call that a friend. Even if Mrs. Mamet makes a mistake, its none of your business to lecture her.
Are you aware of the consequences of availing yourself of Mr. Mamet and keeping our Mrs. Mamet at bay? Youre smart, no need for further boration.
What do you think?
Zara Woods had a gloomy look in her eyes, grinding her teeth in anger.
Is Caleb going to go against her for the sake of Xaviera?
They grew up together, were friends for more than twenty years, and because of Xaviera, he no longer needed friends?
Damned woman! How dare shein!
Could it be that Caleb genuinely liked a woman like Xaviera?
Perhaps Caleb was only after freshness. It was no wonder she had been too reserved and conservative these years. What if she also tried to seduce Caleb like Xaviera, would the result be different?
Zara Woods sniffled, choking, Alright, I was meddling in what I shouldnt have. It was not my ce to interfere inMr. Mamets affairs, I was wrong..

Seeing her sister so wronged, Suki Woods was furious.
Sis! What have you done wrong? Was it her
Suki Woods, seeing the satisfaction on Xaviera Evans face, turned ashen with rage, indifferent to the consequences.
Mr. Caleb Mamet, my sister is only thinking of your interests, so you wouldnt be cheated on without knowing it! Xaviera Evans and this older man are together, even buying a store to help him out, and it was your money she spent, Mr. Caleb Mamet, you
Cheated on? Caleb Mamet sneered, his low voice ominous.
Suki Woods took steps back in fear, her voice trembling: Yes! She cheated on you, otherwise, why would she go shopping with an older man? Miss Woods, dont you have uncles? Caleb asked coldly.
Suki Woods froze, unable to find her words.
Seeing Xaviera with another man and you jump to conclusions. Is this a true reflection of the Woods familys teachings? Are your thoughts always so depraved? What is wrong with Xaviera going shopping with an elder? How could such a bond be improper in your eyes?
Caleb Mamets thin lips offer scornful words, Mamet has had an enlightening day today. Truly, the Woods familys teaching methods are extraordinary. Zara nearly copsed to the ground, quickly trying to exin, Caleb, 1-
At that moment, Sean Price interrupted her, Miss Woods, our wife is simple-minded, gentle, our CEO does not wish for her to be bullied or corrupted by the Woods family.
Miss Woods, please keep your distance from our wife in the future.
Zara staggered with the weak defense, Caleb, it was a misunderstanding between me and Suki. But I was really only thinking of your well-being. I didnt mean to bully Xaviera!
Xaviera gently advised, Honey, Miss Woods speaks correctly. She is kind-hearted and not intentionally iming that I was unfaithful! She is still your friend, how could she ruin our marriage?
I believe it must have been the indecent deeds of the Woods family elders that led Miss Woods to have such a misunderstanding. It is not her fault, but the influence of her original family! Zara:
Wretched woman! Ill kill you!
A tight feeling constricted her chest, making her almost spit out blood. But still, she forcefully held on and gave a forced smile, Caleb, since it is so I shall take my leave.
Zaras tears cascaded down as she burst into tearful flight.
At this moment, a person ran up to her, Zara?
Zara cleaned the tears off with great difficulty.
The person in front of her was Caleb Mamets close friend, Jake Lindsey. Seeing Zara crying so inconsbly, he was full of sympathy, Who bullied you? Ill take revenge for you!
Zara quickly denied it, No, no one.
Jake Lindseys gaze turned icy. Zara was the only girl among their group of friends, whom they all doted on as if a real sister. With their backing as children from noble families, who would dare bully her?
Zara was always optimistic, and this was the first time she had cried so pitifully. Jake Lindsey quietly asked, Zara, dont be scared, tell me what happened?
Jake, I.. Im fine
Suki Woods came chasing after, seeing the situation, she blurted out, Howe youre fine? After the way she treated you, why are you still holding back?!
Mr. Lindsey, do you know about Mr. Caleb Mamets marriage? Mrs. Mamet is a ruthless character; she bullied my sister and made Mr. Caleb Mamet cut ties with my sister!
Zara quickly interjected, Suki, stop!
Jake, sister-inw shes just jealous, realizing that Im a woman, so she doesnt want me to keep in touch with Caleb. I understand her, so you dont need to bother with this
Jake Lindsey was instantly furious, I cant believe Caleb married such a woman, who dares to bully you? You are our sister; even if hes married now, you are still one of the most important people to us.
All of us brothers have girlfriends or wives, but we get along well with you. Only Mrs. Mamet cant tolerate you?
We all grew up together. You and Caleb even shared a bed and a nket. At that time, Mrs. Mamet didnt even know Caleb yet! Who does she think she is to make Caleb cut you off?
