Chapter 1062 - Chapter 1062 Chapter 1062 It must be her doing
Chapter 1062: Chapter 1062: It must be her doing! Chapter 1062: Chapter 1062: It must be her doing! Madam Hughes was initially puzzled about how the apprenticeship banquet ended up like this. Seeing Xaviera Evans, she suddenly realized this little bitch must have been messing around behind the scenes, going to Manning Warwick to say something that changed his mind.
Madam Hughes stared at Xaviera menacingly, wishing she could rush up and tear the temptress’s face to pieces.
How could this little bitch do such a thing! She was jealous of Zora, so she went to Warwick’s face and talked nonsense. She cheated herself and tried to tarnish Zora’s reputation – it was too terrible!
Nidya Hughes’s face looked extremely embarrassed, distorted with anger. Why was her daughter so disgraceful, not only cheating but also ruining Zora’s apprenticeship banquet out of jealousy?
She quickly confronted Xaviera, suppressing the urge to scream and said through gritted teeth, “Xaviera Evans, what are you trying to do? I know you’re jealous of Zora, but you can’t ruin her future! Today’s apprenticeship banquet is so important to Zora, how can you be so cruel?”
Xaviera looked innocent; she just came out to get some fresh air. She didn’t even know that the Hughes family were in this private room. She didn’t do anything, yet Nidya Hughes came up and attacked her. What was wrong with this woman?
Her gaze scanned the crowd, finally landing on Manning Warwick, then glanced back to see the Hughes family glaring at her as if wishing to kill her on the spot, and suddenly understood what happened.
Earlier, Zora Hughes had sent an invitation to her for the apprenticeship banquet, which she ignored, deciding instead to attend Jerome Russell’s birthday party. Only when she arrived at the Cloud House did she find out that the Hughes family’s apprenticeship banquet was being held there too.
It turned out, Zora Hughes really wanted to be Warwick’s apprentice! She sure had guts!
Xaviera had heard the rumors spread by the Hughes family, but she didn’t believe that Manning Warwick would accept Zora as his disciple. Warwick didn’t like taking apprentices in the first place, and besides, Zora didn’t have any talent or passion for calligraphy. There was no reason for Warwick to accept her!
Yet the Hughes family confidently held the apprenticeship banquet, deluding themselves into thinking that Manning Warwick would agree?
Now, although Manning Warwick was present, he had rejected them in front of all their guests. Unable to accept this reality, they decided to put the blame on her?
Seeing the furious expressions on Madam Hughes’s and Cory Hughes’s faces, Nidya scolded sharply, “Xaviera! Hurry up and explain everything to Mr. Warwick! It was you who cheated! What does this have to do with Zora? You shameless girl! Zora has her dignity to maintain!”
Xaviera took a few steps back, widening the distance between her and Nidya Hughes.
Manning Warwick, who had been standing to the side, became angry upon seeing how Nidya treated his beloved older disciple. He had heard about the cheating incident during the competition at Libanan University, but it was clear that Lance Steel had stolen his disciple’s work and then wrongly accused her of cheating. Now the Hughes family was accusing his disciple without even knowing what actually happened. Were they out of their minds?
Without waiting for Xaviera to speak, Warwick sternly shouted, “Nonsense!”
The entire Hughes family was stunned, and Nidya Hughes got so scared that she hastily tried to clarify, “Mister Warwick, it’s our fault for not disciplining Xaviera properly. She cheated during the competition and not only tarnished Libanan University’s reputation but also affected Zora’s name. You can’t misunderstand our Zora because of Xaviera’s cheating. Zora would never cheat!”
It was all Xaviera’s fault, her appalling behavior caused her own mother to lose face and brought shame upon the entire Hughes family!
The thought of the noblewomen in the upper class mocking her filled Nidya with uncontrollable rage.
