Rose Campbell hurriedly stepped forward to help her calm down: “Mom, watch your health. Although Xaviera can be a bit headstrong, she wouldn’t be so reckless with so many people here today. Besides, she hasn’t been home for so long, she’ll definitely want to see you.”
Irene Hamer gave Rose a cold glance. This mistress was really skilled, appearing to comfort the old lady, while actually implying that Xaviera was unfilial, wild, and headstrong.
It seemed that Xavier Hamer was right: the Evans family was truly disgusting.
Irene didn’t say anything else because she knew little Xaviera would come and she wouldn’t let these people off easily.
After a while, everyone started to complain loudly.
They couldn’t control the Evans family’s affairs, but Xaviera being late meant she didn’t care about them!
Derek Evans angrily glanced at the clock and gritted his teeth, “I’ll call her now and see if she’s still coming or not. I invited so many people to celebrate her return, and she’s kept us waiting for so long without a word!”
Rose wore an apologetic expression and bowed to everyone, “Dear classmates, I think Xaviera won’t be coming. I’m really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long.”
Mag Evans pretended to be disheartened. Actually, Xaviera not coming was a good thing, making her seem disrespectful to her elders and willfully causing a ruckus.
She then rose slowly, looking at a loss, “My sister must have a reason for not coming. Maybe… she hasn’t forgiven me yet. If you want to blame someone… blame me. It’s all my fault and has nothing to do with my sister!”
“I’m sorry everyone, please forgive me!”
Mag’s tears fell, and her pitiful appearance moved several of the male students present, who then softly comforted her, ‘Mag, it’s not your fault.” “Yeah, it’s Xaviera’s fault. What does that have to do with you?”
“Xaviera is going too far! Is she taking us for granted?”
“Once we return to school, I’ll write a post criticizing her and let everyone see what kind of person she is! She makes her elders and classmates wait, yet she doesn’t show up—”
“Dad, I’m sorry, I’m late.”
At this moment, a soft trembling voice came, as if she would burst into tears any second.
Xaviera wore a plain long dress, looking fragile, like a flower swaying in the wind and rain.
Her eyes were desolate, “You… you’re leaving?”
Derek Evans couldn’t hold back his anger and yelled, “You still have the nerve to come? If you don’t want to come, just call me! You let everyone wait for so long, what are you trying to do?”
Mag sobbed, “Sister, you must hate me. That’s why you’re unwilling to come.
But since you promised, why are you still doing this? Grandma is not well, and Dad is also sick. They are waiting for you, even though it’s difficult for them.” A heavy label of unfilial piety was placed on Xaviera.
Mag knew in her heart that given Xaviera’s character, she would definitely refute.
If Xaviera dared to refute, she would start crying, and then everyone would gang up on her, leaving Xaviera with no defense.
Mag lowered her head, secretly revealing a smug smile.
Who would have thought that as soon as she finished speaking, Xaviera trembled and her eyes turned red.
“Little sister, I’m sorry. It wasn’t intentional. The security guard at the entrance wouldn’t let me in.”
“They said the Evans family only has one Miss, and that’s you. They said I’m just a wild girl and told me to get lost! No matter what I said, they wouldn’t let me in. That’s why I’m late. I’m sorry, everyone.”
Irene Hamer: ” ”
Mag choked and turned pale.
What was going on? Was Xaviera pretending to be weak?
Xaviera sighed helplessly but sneered in her heart. Was Mag amazed by this? Did she still dare to fight with her?
With an indifferent look, she scanned the Evans family members, whose faces were extremely embarrassed, looking like they were constipated.
Xaviera spoke again, “Dad, I beg for your forgiveness. I didn’t know that the security guards at the entrance wouldn’t recognize me. I called you, but you didn’t answer. Later, Albert sent a bodyguard who subdued the security guards, and only then did I manage to enter…”
“Who knew that as soon as I came in, Dad would scold me…
