Chapter 245: Chapter 245: How Could They Have The Face?
Translator: 549690339
Zara Woods, her face full of embarrassment, managed to force a smile, saying,
“Caleb, don’t get me wrong, everyone is watching, let’s not make a big scene…”
“Charles and Chloe are well-known figures in Libanan too, let’s give them some face, otherwise, others would say that Xaviera is unrelenting even when she is right, which would tarnish her reputation.”
Caleb’s expression turned slightly cold.
Xaviera felt both outraged and amused. How could this woman be so brazen!
Amber Kim had bumped into her and then demanded an apology from her!
Then this pair of jerks rushed up and insulted her, called her a mistress!
Now Zara Woods has the audacity to say she’s been ungracious?
How does she even have the face?
It seems like being the decent ones are Zara’s exclusive right, while she is somehow the villain?
Xaviera, enraged, began to retort, “Miss Woods…”
“Zara. ”
Unexpectedly, Yigol Mamet spoke up first.
His disappointed gaze revealed his thoughts: “Zara, it was Amber who bumped into Xaviera first, calling her a mistress, then Charles insisted that she should apologize. What gives you the right to tell Xaviera to forgive?”
“You don’t even know what happened. Better not jump into conclusions! ”
In Yigol’s eyes, Zara had always been gentle and kind. But her apparent grace now concealed a blatant attempt to make Xaviera forgive.
Zara’s nails were digging into her palm, she was gritting her teeth in anger.
Why was Yigol siding with Xaviera now?
Why couldn’t she interfere?
Seeing Zara go silent, Yigol gave a bitter smile: “Zara, if you have no response, then it means I’m right.”
Zara looked up at Caleb and Yigol’s cold expressions, her body shivered as she felt a tightness in her chest. Choking up, she stepped forward and said softly, “Yigol, you’ve misunderstood… I was just upset, Charles is my cousin and I know him well. It hurts me to see him and Chloe kneeling on the ground.” “I shouldn’t have made conclusions, I should’ve understood the situation first.” With head lowered, Zara let a few tears roll down.
Her face spelled innocence, but Yigol’s eyes didn’t hold any sympathy for her anymore.
Caleb spoke at a deliberate pace, asking, “So, Charles is a renowned figure in Libanan too? This would tarnish Xaviera’s reputation if word got around?”
Upon hearing Caleb’s voice, Zara seemed to cheer up, feigning a grievance: “Caleb, it’s my fault, I asked Miss Evans to forgive without understanding the situation, but I did it for everyone’s sake…’
“The way the Woods and the Salma family carries themselves is rather impressive! I see, they too amount to big shots in Libanan!”
Caleb’s words pierced Zara and Charles with chill, leaving them pale-faced.
Zara’s body trembled.
She couldn’t understand why Caleb was acting like this towards her?
Caleb wasn’t in love with Xaviera, why else wouldn’t he have held a wedding ceremonv or announce their marriage?
Clearly indicating Caleb didn’t hold Xaviera in high regard. If that’s so, then why was he protecting Xaviera at the expense of her and Charles?
Charles understood at once; without an apology, he wouldn’t be able to escape.
He pulled Amber Kim over and knelt in front of Caleb: “Hurry up and apologize!”
Amber’s wide-eyed, her heart brimming with a complex mix of anger and embarrassment, she remained silent.
“Bitch! I told you to apologize! You offended Mrs. Mamet, quickly admit your mistake!”
If Caleb decided to blame the Salma family and the Woods family, then they were in huge trouble, so the best option was to thrust the blame onto Amber Kim.
Xaviera knew what Charles was thinking. He wanted Amber to take the blame so that he and Zara could wash their hands off this matter.
What a wishful thinking!
At this point, Yigol spoke up again: “Charles, answer me honestly, are you aware that Xaviera is married to my brother? Or do you believe she is a mistress that my brother is keeping?”
Upon hearing this, Zara instinctively tensed up.
Yigol’s expression was stern, he said, “Don’t lie to me. If you didn’t know Xaviera, how would you know she is my brother’s woman? Outsiders don’t know that my brother is married, let alone that the woman by his side is Xaviera! ”
“There’s only one possibility, it was someone else who told you, and that someone is Zara!”
