Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040: The Invitation from the Hughes Family Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040: The Invitation from the Hughes Family Upon hearing Xaviera’s yell, Steve Price frantically refused, “Ma’am! I was wrong, I shouldn’t disturb your married life! You can dock my pay, I really didn’t see anything. I won’t dare to come in now! Boss, I know you and your wife have a good relationship, but the living room is a bit cold and the floor is too hard! Be careful of your bodies, or you’ll both be sick when you get old!”

Xaviera’s mouth twitched slightly.

Caleb Mamet glanced at her, revealing a smile. He then leisurely tidied up his somewhat messy clothes and nonchalantly ordered, “Come in.”

As soon as his words fell, Steve obediently pushed the door open and entered, standing straight with his back and respectfully saying, “Boss, I have something to report!”

Xaviera glared at him fiercely. He didn’t listen to her orders, but when Caleb said two words, he obediently came in. Was this discrimination?

Steve handed the file in his hand to Caleb. The man took a look and ordered, “You go handle it.”

“By the way, Boss, have you heard that Manning Warwick is going to accept an apprentice?” Steve suddenly asked.

Caleb was silent for a moment before asking, “Which Manning Warwick?”

Steve was stunned. Their boss had too much on his plate and couldn’t remember everyone. He probably only knew about famous figures like Page Uland. Others were simply not important to him.

This Manning Warwick was Page Uland’s disciple, a man of integrity with high artistic achievements. Why would he accept that scheming bitch Zora as a disciple?

After Steve left, Caleb suddenly frowned and asked, “Manning Warwick wants to accept Zora as his disciple. Has he considered your feelings as a senior sister?”

In fact, Caleb had known about Manning Warwick accepting Zora as his disciple for quite some time. He was not happy when he learned about it, so when Steve asked about Manning Warwick just now, he deliberately pretended not to know.

Xaviera was stunned for a few seconds before laughing, “It’s just a rumor. If that little guy dares to accept Zora as his disciple, he better prepare for Master Uland to kick him out of the school!”

The next morning.

Boom, boom, boom.

Xaviera was woken up by the knocking on the door. The maid Lucy outside the door asked softly, “Ma’am, the Hughes family sent an invitation. Would you like to take a look now?”

An invitation?

Xaviera quickly got up and took the invitation, a hint of doubt in her eyes, “What is the Hughes family up to this time… Hah… An apprenticeship banquet, how interesting!”

“But I really don’t understand why they’re inviting me? Do they want me to flip their tables?”

Lucy shook her head helplessly. The mistress looked so frail, yet she was so violent at heart! She even wanted to flip tables at an apprenticeship banquet!

Xaviera looked innocent, “Since they insist on inviting me, I’ll give them a face. I won’t go too far in front of everyone, but I’ll definitely leave Zora gasping for breath.”

The Hughes family just couldn’t let go! Even though she didn’t go to provoke them, they insisted on provoking her, so she would show them the consequences of provoking her!

However, she wouldn’t make it easy for the Hughes family.

…

On the other side, at the Hughes Villa.

Cory Hughes had been waiting for a long time but still hadn’t received any news from Xaviera. His face darkened, “This is such good news, yet she isn’t willing to come?”

Zora quickly stepped forward and softly comforted, “Grandpa, don’t blame Xaviera. Maybe she’s still mad at us!”

Cory frowned, “Zora, it’s only because you have such a kind heart that you’re willing to invite Xaviera to the apprenticeship banquet. Without relying on your light, she would never have the chance to meet Mister Warwick in her lifetime.”

It was Zora’s idea to send Xaviera the invitation, as there were not many opportunities to publicly step on Xaviera, and she naturally wouldn’t let them go.

Originally, Cory didn’t agree to let Xaviera attend, considering Xaviera’s cheating scandal. Although Manning Warwick didn’t care, it might inevitably affect his impression of the Hughes family.

During this time, the Hughes family had been busy with the apprenticeship and had not paid attention to the news on the Internet. They didn’t know the outcome of Lance Steel’s case.

In Zora’s view, she would soon become Mr. Warwick’s disciple, and all those insignificant people had nothing to do with her. She just needed to climb the ranks step by step using Manning Warwick’s influence, and one day she would step on Xaviera’s face.

Moreover, Zora believed that Xaviera cheated, and Xaviera must be in a hurry to clear her name now. If she knew that she could meet Manning Warwick at the apprenticeship banquet, she definitely wouldn’t refuse.

Zora had high hopes, but after waiting two hours without any response from Xaviera, a realization began to swirl in her mind.

Could it be that she didn’t think highly of Manning Warwick at all, so she didn’t care about the apprenticeship banquet?
