Everyone was stunned for a few seconds; the upper class people here were not short of money, and all they sought was fame and power. They could now meet Manning Warwick at the apprenticeship banquet, even personally introduced by Zora Hughes. This was a golden opportunity, so why would Xaviera Evans refuse it?
"Sir Hughes, didn't you say your granddaughter didn't want to attend? But..." the speaker pointed at a woman not far away, "isn't that..."
He had seen Xaviera before and knew she was Cory Hughes' granddaughter. Finding her at Cloud House now, he couldn't help but be surprised.
As Cory turned around and saw her, the smile on his face almost froze.
Xaviera? How did she get here?
