She immediately let go of the manโs arm and spoke coldly, โDonโt worry, even if
I offend the Coriell family, I will keep you guys out of it, I wonโt drag the
Mamet family down with me, nor will I damage the friendship between the Mamet and Coriell families.โ
Caleb Mamet swallowed hard, feeling annoyed, but not knowing what to do with this woman.
โCaleb, you should know that the thing that designers hate the most is high-scale imitation. Their actions are no different than stepping on the fruit of a designerโs hard work.โ
As she spoke to Caleb, Mrs. Coriell and a group of noblewomen approached them.
Mrs. Coriell wore an apologetic look on her face and spoke gently and generously, โCaleb, Xaviera, youโre both here.โ She behaved like a kind elder, as if they had never had any problems before. It was hard not to admire her ability to fake it.
It would be even more impressive if she hadnโt forced herself between the two of them.
After separating Xaviera and Caleb, Mrs. Coriell smiled and said, โXaviera, I heard about what just happened. Vita shouldnโt have caused you trouble like that. Iโm really sorry.โ
She introduced Xaviera to the others, โThis is Xaviera Evans, a promising young person whom I admire. I invited her here today on purpose. Xaviera, didnโt you say you wanted to see โFleeting Timeโ? Itโs right there; let me show you.โ
Xaviera narrowed her eyes, thinking that there was no such thing as a free lunch. This Mrs. Coriell must be up to something!
She chuckled softly and followed Mrs. Coriell to the display area of โFleeting Timeโ, which had already attracted quite a crowd. For ordinary people, itโs incredibly difficult to own a simple work by Miss Lohill, let alone a masterpiece like โFleeting Timeโ. Owning such a masterpiece represents not only wealth but also social status.
โMiss Coriell, I heard that โFleeting Timeโ was purchased at the price of eight hundred million dollars by a mysterious person back then. It seems that the mysterious person was, in fact, the Coriell family.โ
โโFleeting Timeโ indeed stands out as a custom-made masterpiece, and its design is absolutely stunning. Itโs such a treat just looking at itโฆโ
Vita Coriell stood in the crowd, listening to their compliments and feeling quite proud of herself. Indeed, the Coriells received so much attention because of a single replica.
Vita adjusted her smile as she saw her mother and Xaviera coming towards her. She greeted them elegantly, โMiss Evans, I was in the wrong earlier. Youโre not still angry with me, are you?โ
Xaviera thought that these two were really like mother and daughter, saying the exact same thing.
Mrs. Coriell gently chastised Vita, โYou really should know better, Vita. Xaviera likes Miss Lohillโs designs, and since youโre already acquainted, whatโs the harm in letting her in? Normally, youโre such a smart girl, but sometimes you start to play by the rules and your brain stops working.โ
Vita quickly fawned, โOh mom, please donโt scold me. I was just too excited. Thankfully, Xaviera isnโt mad at me, or I wouldnโt know what to do.โ
The three of them quickly shifted the blame for the incident at the door to Vitaโs inexperience and an ill-advised decision made in a moment of panic, thereby clearing her of any wrongdoing. fre ewebn ovel
How clever of them.
Mrs. Coriell feigned helplessness, โOh, you child.โ She turned to Xaviera, โItโs also my fault, Xaviera. If I had known you were here, I would have come out to greet you.โ
If it werenโt for the time and place being inappropriate, Xaviera would really want to applaud the two of them for their amazing acting skills.
With such powerful enemies, she couldnโt afford to fall behind. So she replied softly, โThatโs alright; I understand. It seems that Miss Coriell really cares about โFleeting Timeโ and this party.โ
Vitaโs eyes flickered as she grabbed Xavieraโs wrist, โOf course. โFleeting Timeโ is Miss Lohillโs proudest work. I heard youโre a big fan, too. Come on, Iโll take you for a closer look.โ
Those standing nearby made way as Vita approached. Xaviera had long wanted to take a closer look at the high-scale imitation of โFleeting Timeโ. It had to be said that it was quite a skillful copy. However, a replica is always a replica. The fabric, the embroidery, the pearl embellishments, and even the curve of the neckline were all wrong.
How could the Coriell family have the nerve to showcase such an inferior product? Did they think this was the level of her design? Thatโs just insulting..
