The next day.
There was a banquet in the upper-class society, and Xenia Jaak was extremely bored, walking around.
She was Miss Jaak, and with her fiery temper, no one dared to provoke her.
Walking to a corner of the hall, Xenia heard a conversation inside. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a male voice from inside: “Miss, if you didn’t hear clearly, I can repeat myself.”
Xenia felt she had heard this voice before, but couldn’t recall where.
The man raised his voice: “My requirements are very high. My girlfriend must be good-looking, have a nice figure, and also be capable of earning money. No freeloading, she must be sensible. I can summon and dismiss her whenever I like. When I’m busy, she should stay away and not disturb my life.”
Xenia:
Damn! Who is this guy? So stupid!
Little did she know that the man inside continued: “Aside from looks, she must also be kind, lovely, share the same values as me, and so on…”
Before he could finish, Xenia saw the woman sitting across from him suddenly stand up and splash the water from her glass onto the man’s face.
“Bah! You’re not even worthy of having a girlfriend? You should just grow old alone!”
Xenia couldn’t help but laugh. She was right; this man didn’t deserve a girlfriend!
The door was suddenly pushed open, and the woman stormed out in anger. Xenia was startled and wanted to slip away quietly.
Who would have thought the voice from inside would be heard again? “Is there anyone left? Sigh, being handsome is also a burden!”
Is there anyone left?
Why does this voice sound so familiar?
Xenia peeked inside and saw it was Yigol Mamet!
Yigol was dressed in a custom-tailored suit, wearing a gold watch and a several hundred thousand-dollar necklace around his neck. His appearance looked like that of a nouveau riche, his gaze exuding a mix of carelessness and arrogance. When he saw Xenia, he blurted out: “Oh my!”
Was she Xaviera Evans’ friend?
Xenia entered the room with a slight smile: “Mr. Mamet, on a blind date?”
Yigol’s face was full of helplessness, and he gave a bitter smile: “Ah, you saw it too. Another failure. This is my 78th blind date. I think I’ve offended all the young ladies in upper-class society. I just don’t understand why I, still a baby, have to go on blind dates.”
Xenia suddenly understood: “You deliberately said those things just now, didn’t you? But even if you don’t want to go on blind dates, you shouldn’t treat a girl like that. Doesn’t it ruin your reputation?”
She remembered that Yigol and Xaviera were close, and he didn’t act like other second-generation rich kids. He should not be so rude.
Yigol leaned back on the couch, sighing helplessly with a smile.
Those girls were great. If they ended up with him, it would be such a pity. He was the second son of the Mamet family, with such unbearable parents and a scheming brother like Boyd Drew. Marrying him would ruin their lives.
Plus, he currently had no ability to protect his wife, so he simply chose not to marry, which gave him some peace.
He was alone, so free, without any worry.
“Oh, stop pretending to be deep at such a young age; the auction is about to begin. Let’s go check it out.”
Xenia said, unconsciously grabbing Yigol’s hand, “You really are different from other rich guys. I know you’re doing all this because you don’t want to hold those girls back, you’re so kind!”
After the pair left the room, the auction was about to start.
Xenia loved this kind of event, and with her family’s wealth, she directly bid on and won several items.
When the last item was brought out, Xenia’s expression changed instantly, “Yigol, look!”
Yigol glanced up and couldn’t help but frown.
Xenia hurriedly said, “You’ve seen that jade pendant, haven’t you? I’ve seen Xaviera wear one, but her pendant and the one in the auction are just halves, and only when combined do they form a complete pendant.”
“I remember Xaviera saying that the jade pendant was a keepsake from her mother, but unfortunately she only got back half of it. The other half was in the hands of the Evans family, but she couldn’t find it even after searching the entire Evans household. I didn’t expect it to appear at the auction.”
