Chapter 1232: Chapter 1232: The Most Important Thing in Business is Honesty
Cory Hughesâs expression became serious. "Just say that your wrist is injured and you canât draw now. If they insist on it, recommend Zora to draw. She is also very talented in porcelain design. Although she may not necessarily satisfy the people from the Heninger family, at least it will dispel their doubts."
Before the words had completely left his mouth, an assistant rushed in. "Chairman, Mr. Hughes! Something terrible has happened! Miss Hughes and Assistant Balck are having an argument with a woman outside, and reporters are out there! Hurry and take a look!"
Cory Hughes frowned. "Today is an important day for the Hughes family. The people from the Heninger family are about to arrive. We cannot let irrelevant people affect our cooperation. Hurry up and get rid of her!"
"That woman..." The assistant hesitated and finally spoke in a trembling voice. "She says her family name is Evans."
Everyoneâs faces changed immediately, anger rushed onto Cory Hughesâs face. He slammed the table angrily and shouted, "Has she really come? These design drawings are all Jonasâs! What does she want to do? Does she wants to compete with Zora for the position of the person-in-charge?"
Sebastian Legend gritted his teeth. It had been so many years since Nina Hughesâs death, her relics should have been left to the Hughes family. What right did Xaviera Evans have to occupy them? Absolutely not!
She raised her voice sharply, "Letâs go! I must see what she wants to do! Today, in any case, I have to throw this little bitch out! This is the Hughes familyâs territory, and I wonât allow her to act recklessly!"
Meanwhile, in the reception hall, it was silent. The reporters raised their microphones and aimed their cameras at Xaviera Evans.
The expressions of the numerous business tycoons who had come to witness the cooperation between the Heninger family and the Hughes family were subtle. They had just heard Miss Evans say that these design drawings were her motherâs relics, not Jonasâs.
Recently, there had been rumors in Libanan about the potential collaboration between the Hughes family and the Heninger family. Everyone was curious about who from the Hughes family was so talented that they had caught the eye of the Heninger family. The Hughes family was currently struggling in Libanan and couldnât return to Holy City. They were in a dilemma, but if they could establish a good relationship with the Heninger family, all their difficulties would seemingly be solved.
It wasnât until today that everyone found out that Jonas was the author of the design drawings. They hadnât expected that this illegitimate son, who seemed mediocre and had no redeeming qualities, could actually have a talent for designing porcelain.
But now...
In the face of everyoneâs doubtful gazes, Assistant Balck protested indignantly, "Miss, donât talk nonsense! The design drawings are our Mr. Hughesâs works. Who is your mother? We donât know her at all! I see, someone must have instructed you to come and make trouble, deliberately interfering with the Hughes familyâs cooperation!"
As soon as the reporters heard this, they immediately surrounded Xaviera Evans with renewed interest, fearing she would run away in the next second.
Xaviera Evans wasnât nervous at all. Her phone vibrated. She looked at it and saw a message that said: [No problem].
Xaviera Evans smirked and said nonchalantly, "First of all, I declare that no one has ordered me to come and cause trouble. No one knows better than the Hughes family who the author of these drawings is. Now that Mr. Hughes and Chairman Hughes arenât showing up, sending an assistant to deal with me instead, are they scared?"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar at the scene, as if a stone had been thrown into a calm lake.
Today, when Xaviera Evans came to the Hughes Group, she intended to create a big fuss, the bigger the better, so that the Hughes family would lose face and gradually reveal their true colors!
Many people were jealous and unwilling to see the Hughes family cooperate with the Heninger family. Now that someone had revealed that the design drawings were not Jonasâs, there were whispers of doubt all around.
Assistant Balckâs face turned red, and he ordered the nearby security guards, "What are you waiting for? Get this crazy woman out of here! She must have been sent by the competing company to stir up trouble. Donât believe her words! The designs are all Mr. Hughesâs!"
All eyes were on Xaviera Evans. If the designs were really not Jonasâs, then the Heninger family would definitely not cooperate with the Hughes family. After all, the most important thing in business is honesty.
Surrounded by more and more skeptical voices, Assistant Balck didnât know what to do, and could only yell loudly, "Hurry up! Get her out of here!"
The security guards made their way through the reporters and approached Xaviera Evans. "Miss, please leave immediately, or donât blame us for being impolite."
This was the Hughes familyâs reception hall, and naturally, the reporters wouldnât help Xaviera Evans speak. Meanwhile, the business tycoons didnât dare to offend the Hughes family until the truth of the matter was clear, so everyone just watched, not willing to stand up for Xaviera Evans.
