Chapter 922: Chapter 922: A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Zora Hughes gave a bitter smile: “Indeed, the engagement was mine, but whether I am Mrs. Mamet is not important anymore. Don’t blame my cousin either. After all, she also has Hughes blood. Her marrying Mr. Caleb Mamet can be considered legitimate.”

The reporters suddenly understood that they had thought that Mrs. Mamet and Mr. Caleb Mamet’s love was a free choice, but now they realized that Mrs. Mamet had snatched someone else’s engagement to sit in her position. Everyone had already thought about how to write this news.

“It’s been so long since the engagement was taken, and Mrs. Mamet hasn’t responded. So are you here to ask for an explanation, Miss Hughes?”

After hearing the reporter’s question, Zora shook her head, looked at her grandparents beside her, and took a deep breath: “There’s no rivalry between us sisters. Take it as a beautiful misunderstanding. As for me and Xaviera…”

At this point, her voice suddenly choked, making everyone feel sorry and angry for her. The engagement originally belonged to Zora, and she could have married Caleb and become the most powerful woman in Libanan. Besides, everyone knew that Caleb was very fond of Mrs. Mamet, and this affection was originally Zora’s. Which woman wouldn’t resent this?

If something is lost, you can ask someone for compensation, but what Zora lost was an engagement. How can that be compensated?

At this moment, Cory Hughes stepped forward, his face serious: “If you have any questions, ask me. I’ll answer them for you. First of all, we came to the banquet after being invited by Mr. Mamet.”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone’s eyes widened in surprise. It was Mr. Mamet who invited the Hughes family to the banquet? The Hughes family and Mrs. Mamet were already at odds. Zora’s fans cursed Mrs. Mamet every day, sending countless abusive messages to her. Yet at this time, Mr. Mamet had invited the Hughes family over. Why on earth?

Even if Mr. Mamet resented the Hughes family and wanted to take revenge on them, he wouldn’t do anything under public scrutiny. If he did so, the reputation of the couple would be completely ruined.

“That’s right. The engagement was originally Zora’s. Although Xaviera did something wrong, she is still my granddaughter. I can’t make her divorce. If she can be happy, I, as a grandfather, will be relieved.”

“But Zora is also my granddaughter. I can’t bear to see her suffer. Xaviera snatched her fiancé, and Mr. Mamet didn’t know the truth. Nobody can understand her pain.”

After finishing, Cory sighed helplessly, and the reporters all looked regretful.

In this matter, Mr. Caleb Mamet was kept in the dark, having already married Xaviera. Cory couldn’t make Xaviera and Caleb divorce, but who would bear the unfair treatment Zora had suffered?

Cory’s old eyes were slightly red, “At first, I didn’t want to bring Zora here when I received the invitation. I was afraid she would be heartbroken, and more importantly, Xaviera had refused to meet with us during this period. I’m not trying to make things difficult for Xaviera today; I just want her to apologize to Zora.”

The reporter continued to ask, “Sir Hughes, when Mr. Mamet founded Natural Sound, he said he would give it to an important person. Now he has handed over Natural Sound Entertainment to Mrs. Mamet, which means they must have met a few years ago, so…”

It was enough to prove that Mr. Caleb Mamet had known and loved Mrs. Mamet long before the engagement.

After listening to the reporter’s question, Cory slowly lowered his head, his eyes full of sadness, “I didn’t want to mention this matter, but in fact, Windrop Entertainment is a property of the Hughes family.”

The reporters gasped in surprise.

“Windrop Entertainment used to be an entertainment studio owned by the Hughes family. I had always let my daughter Nina Hughes manage it. After my daughter passed away, I handed the studio over to Xaviera, but she was too young to manage the company, so I often sent Zora to Windrop to handle company affairs.”

The reporter asked quickly, “Your meaning is that Mr. Mamet has always been thinking about Miss Hughes in his heart, only he has mistaken the person?”

Cory remained silent, but to everyone else, it seemed that he was admitting to it. It turned out that there was more than just the engagement issue between Zora and Xaviera.

Everyone couldn’t help but speculate that perhaps Mr. Mamet knew about the engagement with the Hughes family long ago. By chance, he met a girl at a studio, fell in love at first sight, and decided to create Natural Sound Entertainment for her.
