Cory Hughes stood still, and the guests' eyes fell on him, as if mocking him for not educating his granddaughter well, who dared to defy him in public.
This Xaviera Evans is the nemesis of the Hughes family from a previous life! Just like her adoptive mother, she wouldn't be disciplined!
Cory's tone was impatient, "Who invited you? Xaviera, if you want to lie, at least make it plausible. Who would invite you to Cloud House on Zora's apprenticeship banquet day? How could you be so coincidental? Since you refuse to repent, you don't have to participate in the apprenticeship banquet, go back home immediately, I don't want to see you!"
"I invited her! Any problem with that?" At this moment, an authoritative and domineering female voice came from outside the door.
Cory and Madam Hughes felt a tremor in their hearts, as if all their blood had frozen. This voice was all too familiar, so familiar it filled them with fear.
