Xenia Jaak glanced at Zara Woods and said with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, “Miss Woods, I bet you really want to know what the gift in my hand is.”

Zara Woods’ face turned pale, her heart pounding rapidly.

Xenia sneered, “Well, you’ll have to see if you have the ability to find out.”

The banquet was about to begin, and Mrs. Jaak led Xaviera Evans into a guest room.

Xaviera didn’t know what the mother and daughter of the Jaak family were up to, one calling her over and the other being secretive, but both seemed to have no ill intentions.

Just as she was thinking, Mrs. Jaak handed her a gift box directly, “Miss Evans, please accept this.”

Xaviera looked puzzled and asked unhurriedly, “Mrs. Jaak, I have no dealings with the Jaak family, and the Jaak family has little business with the Mamet family. I can’t just casually accept something from your family.”

Mrs. Jaak’s face flushed slightly, and she explained helplessly, “This is all because of the misunderstanding back then when Xenia thought you had broken her toy and pushed you down in public.”

Xaviera frowned, not wanting to recall that memory, “At that time, didn’t the Jaak family punish Miss Jaak for her actions? The matter has been… ”

“Miss Evans, it was only a few days ago that I learned the truth. It turns out Mag Evans framed you and coerced you into confessing in front of the Evans family. Both Xenia and I now know that we wronged you and caused you unnecessary suffering.”

“Although it’s been ten years since the incident, it still affects your reputation. So we plan to clear your name at today’s banquet. This gift is prepared by Xenia for you, hoping you will like it. If you don’t accept it, Xenia will blame herself.”

Caleb Mamet, who was outside the door, heard everything clearly. Before he could speak, Steve Price muttered, “What a light-hearted apology from the Jaak family! I think they are just… ”

Sean Price glared at him, “Don’t talk nonsense. There is no business between the Jaak and Mamet families. If they are not sincere, they could directly clarify this through Twitter, couldn’t they?”

In the room, Mrs. Jaak was unaware that Caleb was outside the door. 𝐟𝗿ee𝘄𝗲𝗯𝐧o𝘃el.𝐜o𝚖

“Miss Evans, I know it’s been ten years, and you might have forgotten or even harbor resentment and won’t forgive us. However, Rose Campbell has been spreading rumors about you stealing and destroying property, even driving you to the countryside. If we don’t clarify this, you will carry this stain for the rest of your life.”

Xaviera remained silent, just staring at Mrs. Jaak in front of her.

Her eyes were clear and sincere, showing no hidden emotions. She genuinely felt guilty and worried that this matter would affect Xaviera.

Even when everyone believed Xaviera had broken the toy, the Jaak family had punished Xenia for pushing her in public, which showed that they were reasonable and accommodating.

Xaviera spoke indifferently, “There’s no need for that. Isn’t it too formal to make a clarification at the banquet?”

Mrs. Jaak looked earnest, “Xenia has already told her grandparents about this, and Sir Jaak has agreed. After all, our family was the one that wronged you back then. You don’t need to worry about it; we just want to clear your name, so you don’t need to feel any pressure.”

Seeing her silence, Mrs. Jaak continued, “Mag hasn’t bothered you these days, actually, because Xenia has warned her not to. If she dares to trouble you again, Xenia won’t let her off.”

“There’s also someone else – Miss Woods – who seems to be somewhat displeased with you.”

Xaviera scoffed disdainfully, “Zara Woods? I know.”

The banquet officially began, and everyone raised their glasses to wish the two elders long and healthy lives.

After a while, Mrs. Jaak chose a harp from the instruments and played a light tune.

Sir Jaak had a fondness for various instruments, so he had collected many at home. This time, they were all brought out for the birthday feast, including both Chinese and foreign instruments, so a talent show segment had been arranged.

Many musicians were invited to the banquet, and they gathered to play and sing together, creating a lively atmosphere. After the performance ended, someone in the crowd asked, “I heard Miss Woods participated in the International Violin Competition?”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Zara Woods.
