Chapter 1227: Chapter 1227: Unable to Understand Wayne Reiser
Upon hearing the words "the Hughes family," Wayne Reiserās expression suddenly became stiff, and his wife and Fiona also paled, exchanging surprised glances.
Xaviera Evans noticed the change in their expressions.
Wayne Reiser subtly glared at his wife and Fiona before they adjusted their emotions and resumed their calm demeanor as if nothing had happened.
Xaviera couldnāt understand why the Reiser family members would be so surprised. What was so surprising about the Hughes family coming to see her? Could it be their reputation that had taken them aback?
In their eyes, Xaviera not only saw surprise but also a trace of panic and fear.
How many more secrets did the Reiser family have that she didnāt know about?
Xaviera turned to Steve Price and asked, "Whoās here?"
Steve glanced at the Reiser family members as if it was inappropriate to say. Wayne Reiser saw his intentions and laughed, "Since Mrs. Mamet has an important guest to meet, we wonāt bother you any longer. However, please make sure to accept the gift. I will have Fiona formally apologize to you at the Lowen Clubhouse another day. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive her this time."
Xaviera responded indifferently, "I accept Miss Reiserās apology. She doesnāt need to come to the Lowen Clubhouse to apologize again. Mr. Reiser personally came to apologize. If I donāt forgive Miss Reiser, then Iām the one whoās ungrateful."
Wayne Reiser smiled amiably, "Mrs. Mamet, youāre too kind. Fiona, come and apologize."
Fiona hurriedly stepped forward and sincerely expressed her apology. Afterward, Wayne Reiser left with his wife and daughter. As an elder, he couldnāt be faulted for his actions.
After giving up the competition and personally bringing Fiona to apologize, as well as presenting a valuable gift, everyone believed that Wayne Reiserās behavior was very appropriate.
Once the three of them left, Steve couldnāt help but say, "Are we just letting it go?"
Sean Price explained, "Mr. Reiser came to the Lowen Clubhouse and apologized so sincerely. If Mrs. Mamet insists on not forgiving and kicks them out, it will only make her seem unreasonable and lacking manners."
Xaviera nodded, "Fiona only said a few words to me yesterday, which didnāt hurt me. Besides, Mr. Reiser seems to have only wanted to apologize, without targeting me."
But even so, Xaviera couldnāt figure out Wayne Reiser. She looked up at Caleb Mamet, who still appeared calm, his eyes gentle. In front of her, he had always maintained a good image and quality.
"Xaviera is right. He only wanted to apologize. My teacher is really concerned about his image!" Caleb softly sighed, "Now everyone in Libanan knows that Mr. Reiser is gentle, polite, and sincere."
Xaviera chuckled lightly, "If someone likes to pretend to be kind and loving, it only proves that they arenāt such a person."
Caleb smiled slightly, his eyes glowing like stars, "Xaviera speaks very wisely."
As Xaviera looked into Calebās eyes, her heartbeat skipped a beat, and her cheeks flushed.
Even though they were already married and had been together for a long time, she still couldnāt resist the allure of Calebās smile. This man was just too tempting.
She quickly turned her face away and cleared her throat, "Why are the Hughes family looking for me?"
Steveās expression turned subtle, "Iām not sure, but... Nidya Hughes insists on seeing you. Sheās already in the reception room waiting."
"Tell her Iām busy and donāt have time." Xaviera added, "Thereās still a design draft in the Design Department that hasnāt been finalized. I need to ask Buck Drew for his opinion."
Xaviera didnāt care about Nidya Hughesā feelings; she just didnāt want to see her.
Steve got the message and patted his chest, "I got it, Mrs. Mamet. Iāll handle Nidya Hughes."
Not long after the Hughes family arrived in Libanan, the Reiser family returned to the country. Xaviera didnāt know the purpose of the Reiser familyās return, but she had a hunch that it might have something to do with the Hughes family. Perhaps she would soon unveil the truth.
...
In the reception room, Nidya Hughes became sullen when she learned that Xaviera wouldnāt see her. "What? She wonāt see me? Iām her birth mother. How can she leave me here, no matter how busy she is? We have some misunderstandings, but weāre still mother and child! Is she going to hold a grudge against me for a small matter like this?"
Steve sneered inwardly. In her eyes, wanting to send Mrs. Mamet to jail was just a small matter?
