Chapter 791: Chapter 791: One Must Be Self-Aware in Life
Mrs. Swift suppressed her anger and forced a smile on her lips, “Mrs. Carter is looking for Miss Evans! We must have misunderstood. I’m sorry, but it is because Xaviera didn’t make herself clear that Tracy…”
That is to say, the entire responsibility was on Xaviera, and she had deliberately set up Tracy Swift.
Xaviera pulled her lips into a thin smile, her expression indifferent but contemptuous, “Miss Swift, I had no idea that Mrs. Carter would co looking for .”
Tracy Swift hurriedly said, “Xaviera, I’m not blaming you at all. Actually, whether you knew or not isn’t important anymore. What’s done is done.”
Xaviera’s eyes were icy cold, and she scoffed, “If I rember correctly, it was Miss Tobey Swift who told everyone that Mrs. Carter was here to see her. And later, spreading that news were the Swift family mbers. This matter has nothing to do with from beginning to end. Now that Miss Tracy Swift is embarrassed in public, Mrs. Swift is placing the bla on . Isn’t that a little unreasonable?”
There was silence in the hall, and everyone knew that the Swift family rely wanted to save face. Yet, the seemingly weak Xaviera refused to yield and dared to refute Mrs. Swift on the spot.
Carter cast an unhappy glance at the Swift family and said, “This matter is indeed not Miss Evans’s fault. I made a last-minute decision to co, and she did not know.”
If people were still skeptical before, now that Mrs. Carter herself had explained, who would doubt her?
They could only think that Tracy Swift was too confident. Hearing that Mrs. Carter was looking for a female painter in her 20s, she assud it was herself. As a result, she made a fool of herself.
Tobey Swift wasn’t convinced, “But my sister is also a female painter in her 20s, so it’s not surprising that there was a mix-up.”
“Everyone knows that I’m very picky. Does Miss Swift think I would be interested in anyone?” Carter, who was always gentle, didn’t seem to care about saving the Swift family’s face now.
Hearing this, Tracy Swift’s breath caught in her throat, and her face turned extrely ugly. Mrs. Swift, who was beside her, also suppressed her anger. Her daughter was the first noble lady of high society in the Imperial City, yet she was now being humiliated in public.
What made Xaviera so arrogant? Wasn’t she just a girl who relied on plagiarism? Now that both Mrs. Carter and Hayin’s faithful fan Justin Gresia were here, would they still save face for Xaviera if they knew soone plagiarized Hayin’s work?
By then, even if Mrs. Carter liked Xaviera, she couldn’t afford to offend a newcor like Hayin! She couldn’t offend Hayin’s loyal fans either.
Mrs. Swift swallowed her anger and raised her eyes with a faint smile, “I heard that Miss Evans also participated in the exhibition. Which painting is hers? Since your painting has been appreciated by Mr. Alan Willock, it must be very strong. Tracy can learn a lot from you.”
Everyone listened to Mrs. Swift and beca very curious about Xaviera’s painting.
Mrs. Carter had already seen through Mrs. Swift’s little sche. Since that’s the case, let’s show them Hayin’s painting and let them give up.
The person in charge invited Mrs. Carter to another hall, and the others followed behind, all moving towards it.
“Xaviera.” Tracy Swift suddenly spoke.
Xaviera’s expression was indifferent, and she didn’t stop but continued walking forward.
Tracy Swift clenched her teeth. She constantly reminded herself that she was a noble lady and could not lose her temper. But when she thought about how Xaviera took everything that belonged to her and made her lose face in public, she couldn’t control her anger.
“You did it on purpose to make look bad! How could you do this to ?”
Xaviera slowly looked up, so surprise in her eyes, “Why would Miss Swift think that?”
“You knew that Mrs. Carter was coming to find you, but you…”
“Miss Swift, I’ve already explained just now that I didn’t know Mrs. Carter was coming. Besides, it was the Swift family who mistakenly thought Mrs. Carter was here to see you, not . How can you bla for that?” Xaviera said lightly, with a mocking smile at the corner of her mouth, “One should know their own limits. Miss Swift’s strength is not enough to be Mrs. Carter’s disciple.”
Having said that, Xaviera walked past Tracy Swift and left.
Tracy Swift’s expression suddenly stiffened, her resentful eyes fixed on Xaviera.
Ah! On what grounds? On what grounds could she be so arrogant?
At this mont, everyone had arrived at the other hall. The spacious hall was suddenly crowded, and everyone was looking at a painting, which was Xaviera’s work.
