Zara Woods hadn’t given much thought to the dress, just wanting to embarrass Xaviera Evans in public. She hadn’t expected Xaviera to spot the dress’s problem right away.
Now that the issue had been exposed, she absolutely could not admit to it! Otherwise, it would affect her own studio.
“Caleb… I didn’t know. I used top-quality fabric, and I don’t know how the lining turned into coarse cloth. I…”
Xaviera said with a meaningful smile, “I heard Miss Woods is a famous designer, even well-known abroad. Surely you can tell the difference between silk and coarse cloth? If this level of skill can become a designer, it’s really laughable!”
Yigol Mamet was momentarily at a loss for words and didn’t know how to defend Zara Woods.
Caleb cleared his throat: “Throw them all away.”
The butler immediately sent people to take the dresses out.
Zara had tears in her eyes, “Caleb, I’ve been working overtime these days to design the dresses. I entrusted some parts to others. They must have changed the fabric to save money without my knowledge. It’s not my… ‘
Caleb still wore a cold expression. Zara was so anxious she started stamping her feet. “Caleb, we’ve been friends since we were children. You should know what kind of person I am. Why would I harm someone?”
“Miss Woods, have you ever thought about the consequences if I’d really worn these dresses?”
Xaviera spoke coldly.
This was definitely more than just a fabric swap issue. It was the design drafts that were ill-intentioned from the beginning.
And Zara personally delivering the dresses was her way of showing everyone how kind and generous she was, making it impossible for her to commit such an act.
Yigol lifted his eyes to look at Xaviera and still felt like he had to help Zara. So he yelled, “Xaviera, what’s your point? It’s just a few dresses, right? It’s not Zara’s fault!”
With tears filling her eyes, Zara choked up, “Caleb, I really wanted to finish the dresses as soon as possible, so I asked other people for help. I didn’t expect this.”
At this moment, the sound of car engines could be heard outside.
The butler rushed in, “Madam, someone is looking for you outside.”
Xaviera nodded, “Let them in.’
Before long, an elegantly dressed woman entered, followed by a group of staff members. Holding a sparkling golden box, she asked respectfully, “Which one of you is Miss Evans? These are the jewels designed by Mrs. Yvonne for you.
There are twelve sets. I hope you’ll like them.”
After she spoke, the staff opened the box, and everyone’s eyes lit up.
These jewels were so dazzling that they made Zara’s dresses seem dull in comparison.
Zara’s face turned red with embarrassment as if she had just been hit in the head.
Yvonne was a famous jewelry designer both domestically and internationally.
Her works were considered artistic treasures and were recognized by everyone. It was an honor to own jewelry designed by Yvonne.
No one had expected Yvonne to gift Xaviera twelve sets of jewelry at once!
With a puzzled look on his face, Yigol asked, “Zara, isn’t Xaviera really poor?
Caleb had to help her buy clothes. Why would Yvonne design jewelry for her?” Zara’s face was gloomy, full of embarrassment.
Her nails dug deep into her palm, “My designed dresses… indeed can’t match
Yvonne’s jewelry design. I’ll go back and redesign them. I… must go now.”
With tears in her eyes and her face covered, Zara spoke softly, “Caleb, I know you may still be angry at me, but we haven’t seen each other for such a long time. Can’t you forgive me? I can come back to the country for you…”
“I must have been overly sentimental…” Zara gave a bitter smile.
Caleb glanced at her indifferently.
Just when Zara thought that he was touched and was about to take a step further-
“I didn’t ask you to come back.”
Caleb said coldly, “Jayden Woods gave the entire Woods family to me in order to help you establish yourself abroad. You’ve been living such a happy life overseas all because your brother traded his entire fortune for it. So, you shouldn’t have come back.”
Zara’s face instantly turned ashen.
“Butler, see the guests out.” Caleb said coldly.
Yigol immediately voiced his disapproval, “Zara just came back, and you’re driving her away already?”
