But now, a countryside girl like her had married the prestigious head of the Mat family and beco the hostess of the Mat family, reigning supre over the entire Mat family.
“Xaviera, tell if this is true?”
Moore.” Xaviera gave him a cold glance, her eyes full of warning, “According to seniority, Caleb is your uncle, and I am your aunt. You casually address by my na in public. Is this how your family educates you?”
Slap!
Before Moore even had ti to react, Steve Price raised his hand and slapped him across the face, his tone icy: “Mat family rules: those who disrespect their elders will be subject to family law. However, since there is no family law here, I’ll do it for you!”
After saying that, Steve Price gave Moore another slap, leaving red finger marks on both sides of his cheeks.
Xaviera indifferently turned around and walked to the seat where Caleb had just been sitting. In front of everyone, she slowly took her seat, her aura fully unleashed.
This seat was usually reserved for Mada Evans, and if she wasn’t present, then Derek Evans would take the seat. However, the seat should have belonged to her mother in the first place.
Her mother had earned everything the Evans family had. Why should the Evans family be allowed to squander it all arbitrarily?
If it were any other day, the mont Xaviera dared to approach the main seat, soone would have stopped her and she would have been scolded severely. However, no one present dared to stop her now.
She said airily, “Caleb, I’ve already told the Evans family that I’ve gotten married, but they insisted that I divorce and marry into the Sutton family. They really don’t take you seriously, do they! Or do they think the Sutton family… is more capable than you? Richer and more powerful than the Mat family?”
The originally shocked Evans family felt their hearts race upon hearing this.
Steve Price looked admiringly at Xaviera. Mrs. Mat’s domineering manner was truly enjoyable!
At this mont, the previously arrogant Sutton family mbers were like mice seeing a cat, not daring to make a sound, and their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
“Mr. Caleb Mat, we…are from the Evans…”
Mr. Sutton, no longer caring about saving face, quickly explained: “It was the Evans family! The Evans family wanted to sell their daughter to us. We didn’t even know Miss Evans was already married. If we knew Miss Evans had married you…we wouldn’t have dared to enter into a marriage alliance with the Evans family even with a hundred tis more courage! It was the Evans family who concealed the truth and forced Miss Evans to marry my son!”
“Is that so?” Caleb raised an eyebrow.
Hearing Caleb’s rhetorical question, everyone’s face turned pale.
Mada Evans clenched her teeth and stared viciously at Xaviera.
How did this little bitch get so lucky as to marry Caleb? And why didn’t she say she was married earlier, instead of making the Evans family lose face in public? What a disaster!
Sean Price sneered, “Mr. Sutton, you should know the consequences of deceiving our president. I advise you to tell the whole truth. Perhaps if our president is in a good mood, he won’t make a fuss about it. What do you think?”
Upon hearing these words, Mr. Sutton could no longer bear it and knelt down on the ground.
“Mr. Mat! I really didn’t know Miss Evans is Mrs. Mat! This is all just a misunderstanding! I…”
Caleb leaned lazily on the sofa, the corner of his lips curling up slightly, unveiling a cold smile. In his hand, there was a delicate dagger that had appeared at so point.
“But just now, your son and wife said otherwise. It seed like they still wanted to take Xaviera back with them? What were they planning to do?”
“Tell , and perhaps… I might spare you.”
Xaviera’s eyes narrowed slightly. She rembered that Mag and Moore had already held an engagent banquet before. Why bother holding another banquet, if not to invite the Sutton family over to announce her marriage to Edwin, and then sell her off to the Sutton family tonight?
Mada Evans knew that Xaviera would never agree to such a thing, so they must have had a backup plan. What exactly did the Evans family want to do?
When Mr. Sutton thought of his wife and son’s unreasonable demands and humiliations on Xaviera earlier, and how they had said that Xaviera should serve them well and not leave the house without permission in the future, he felt that Caleb would co after his life in the next second.
“I, I wanted Xaviera and my son to just get engaged since they are still not…familiar with each other. So I wanted Xaviera to co back with us as…our guest. It was the malicious Evans family who, for the sake of the company’s interests, wanted to sell Xaviera to us!”
