Chapter 1273: Chapter 1273: Lennon Heninger Disappears
Mr. Heningerâs eyes were filled with ridicule, "The Heninger Villa? Mr. Hughes, didnât you say that Miss Evans was in charge previously? Why would Miss Hughes go to the Heninger Villa?"
Zora Hughes clenched her fists nervously. She certainly couldnât tell the truth and couldnât let anyone know that she wanted to steal Xaviera Evansâ position.
"Forget it, I donât want to meddle in the Hughes familyâs affairs." Mr. Heningerâs gaze suddenly became sharp, "Miss Hughes insists that this porcelain sculpture was a gift from the family head. So, who did the family head send to deliver the sculpture?"
Zora didnât hesitate to answer: "Lennon Heninger! Heâs called Lennon Heninger! He is the ninth disciple of the family head, and he personally gave me the sculpture."
Everyone looked at Zora, who didnât seem to be lying. If they wanted to prove whether it was true or false, they could just call Lennon over and ask him.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Heninger scoffed, "Lennon Heninger? The family headâs disciple?"
"Miss Hughes, Iâm really impressed. You can lie so confidently. Iâm sorry, but our family head doesnât have any disciples, and there is no one in the Heninger family called Lennon Heninger!"
The room was in an uproar.
If the sculpture was fake, it was possible that Zora had been deceived by Lennon Heninger. But now, Mr. Heninger made it very clear that there were no such people in the Heninger family or disciples of the family head, so who was this Lennon Heninger, and was he made up by Zora?
Xaviera Evans stood in the crowd, with a hook at the corner of her mouth.
The Heninger family indeed didnât have a person named Lennon Heninger. Thatâs because Lennon Heninger and Mr. Heninger himself were both played by the best actor winner Elijah Flack!
Who could have imagined that the nationwide famous best actor winner Elijah Flack was performing in front of everyone with a skin mask, and no one found any flaws?
Zora felt weak and almost fell, beads of sweat rolling down her forehead. Her mind was chaotic, images of Lennon Heningerâs face gradually becoming blurry, and in the end, she couldnât even remember what he looked like.
Impossible! The sculpture was given to her by Lennon Heninger!
Zora hurriedly took out her phone, "Itâs not like that. That day, Lennon Heninger called me and asked me to go to the Heninger Villa to get the sculpture. Many people in the Heninger family saw it. I have the call records in my phone, I can prove..."
Her words suddenly stopped.
Cory Hughes anxiously said, "Zora, hurry up and show him the call log!"
Zoraâs fingers quickly slid on the screen, her eyes tightly staring at the call log.
Why was it gone? Even the text messages that were sent earlier disappeared. The person named Lennon Heninger seemed to have vanished without a trace!
This is impossible!
"What about Miss Hughesâ call records? At this point, do you still want to keep lying to me? You use mundane lies to create another lie, claiming that this is our family headâs work. But you donât know that the family head doesnât like roses, the family head and Mr. Heninger both like cherry blossoms, because the patriarchâs wife loved them before her death. She even planted a ten-mile cherry forest on Black Island. After her death, the family head no longer carves, and Mr. Heninger only carves cherry blossoms."
"If Miss Hughes wants to deceive people, please at least study the situation first. Such a clumsy method makes me doubt your intelligence!"
"Roses and the ninth disciple, your lies are one after another. I donât know how you came up with them!"
Zoraâs face turned pale, and her blood seemed to freeze instantly.
Cherry blossoms?
Everyone heard Mr. Heningerâs words - cherry blossoms.
The Heninger family head and Mr. Heninger carved cherry blossoms because the late patriarchâs wife loved cherry blossoms. The one who brought out the cherry blossom porcelain sculpture was the ridiculed Miss Evans!
If itâs said that Miss Hughesâ sculpture is a fake, then is Miss Evansâ the genuine article?
Zora broke into a cold sweat, she was helpless, and her heart ached. She didnât understand why she lost inexplicably.
At this moment, Mr. Heningerâs cold voice came, "I wonât hold you accountable for the fake sculpture for now, Mr. Hughes. Where is the cherry blossom porcelain sculpture that Mr. Heninger gave to the Hughes Group?"
Everyone suddenly stared, looking at Cory Hughes.
That piece of porcelain was the genuine article given by Mr. Heninger, but unfortunately...
Cory shuddered, the veins on his forehead bulging, "The cherry blossom porcelain sculpture... is with Xaviera Evans, yes, itâs with Xaviera... "
"Huh! Mr. Hughes, have you lost your memory?" A cold female voice rang out from not far away. Xaviera Evans slowly walked out of the crowd, her figure slender, her eyes clear and calm, with a hint of ridicule.
"I donât have any porcelain sculpture. Just now, Miss Hughes said that my sculpture was a fake, and then Mr. Hughes ordered someone to throw my sculpture away!" She raised her eyebrows, pointing to the turbulent river outside, "Itâs probably drifted hundreds of miles away by now. How about Mr. Hughes send someone to dive in and fish it out?"
