“I announce! The victory of the violin competition three years ago is nullified! No one won that contest!”
Despite Morbor loudly announcing this, in his heart, he believed Xaviera was the truly deserving champion, though it’s possible Xaviera no longer cared.
Maxwell Martin’s legs weakened, nearly collapsing to the ground. Holding onto a chair to stabilize himself, his eyes were filled with despair.
Zara Woods, wide-eyed, full of shock, tried to explain. However, she saw everyone’s disdainful looks and could only bear the anger, lowering her head.
Xaviera! I won’t let you go!
One day, I’ll make you pay for all the pain and humiliation I endured, so you can taste the same bitterness!
The Jaak family stepped in to mediate: “Bring Mr. Martin to the restroom. The banquet shall continue”
The gathering at the banquet was lively, and no one mentioned the recent events. Everyone kept it a secret because mentioning it would embarrass Zara and disgust the Jaak family.
Xenia Jaak, gossiping with her friends, said, “She’s such a shameless person! I want to kick Zara Woods out! Does she even count as a wealthy family’s daughter? What daughter could do something so fake?”
A friend blinked and whispered, “Look, Zara is up to something again!”
Xenia looked over and saw Zara, wine glass in hand, leading a group of people to Xaviera.
“Miss Evans, I’m really sorry. I really didn’t know about Maxwell Martin’s decision to eliminate you. If you had participated back then, you would have been the champion! I really don’t deserve it!”
Zara raised her wine glass with a gentle smile: “Miss Evans, please accept this drink as my apology. Can you… forgive me?”
Mrs. Woods chimed in: “Miss Evans, our Zara didn’t know about it. It was Maxwell Martin’s doing!”
Chloe Lindsey also said: “Zara and Mr. Caleb Mamet are good friends! If you don’t forgive her, wouldn’t it make things difficult for Mr. Mamet? It’s not a big deal, just a matter of a few words.”
Xenia Jaak felt a surge of anger: Why should Xaviera forgive Zara, the angelic bitch, for apologizing? Not to mention the ulterior motives behind it all; Maxwell Martin wouldn’t have tampered with the contest for no reason. It must have been for Zara.
Isn’t it a little late to play innocent now?
Seeing no response from Xaviera, Zara quickly filled her eyes with tears and choked up: “Xaviera… if you don’t want to forgive me, I won’t blame you. Whimper…”
“Xaviera! How can you be so heartless? It’s been three years since that happened, and you still won’t let it go! Zara has already apologized to you. What more do you want? Can’t you see how guilty she feels right now? It wasn’t even her fault! What more do you want?”
Zara hurriedly stopped her: “Chloe, don’t say anything. Miss Evans has the right to be unhappy. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have competed for the championship. If I had known Xaviera was also participating, I would have given her the championship without hesitation.”
“You want to beg Xaviera for forgiveness?”
At that moment, a cold voice interrupted.
Caleb Mamet was lounging leisurely on a couch, his expression icy as he glanced at everyone.
His deep eyes casually took a sip of red wine, leaving a trace of bright color on his lips.
Caleb chuckled, “To make Xaviera forgive you, shouldn’t you show some sincerity? Zara Woods, how should you address Xaviera?”
Everyone was puzzled. Zara had just called her Miss Evans and even affectionately called her Xaviera. Was there another way to address her?
Caleb Mamet calmly said, “Since you already know we’re married, shouldn’t you address her as Mrs. Mamet?”
Zara’s heart skipped a beat.
Xenia Jaak smiled, “Yeah! Zara! Everyone knows about Mr. Mamet and Mrs. Mamet getting married. Why do you keep calling her Miss Evans and not Mrs. Mamet?”
“You always say you’re Mr. Mamet’s good friend, but you keep calling her ‘Miss Evans’. Are you doing it on purpose?”
“Do you think we won’t know about Mrs. Mamet’s status if you don’t acknowledge it? Isn’t that too ridiculous?”
