Chapter 1261 - Chapter 1261 Chapter 1261 She Fell Into the Trap
Chapter 1261: Chapter 1261: She Fell Into the Trap Chapter 1261: Chapter 1261: She Fell Into the Trap Zora Hughes pondered over it. If there was a mediator in the cooperation between the two families, then this person would hold a special position in both families. The power was simply too tempting.
In fact, all Zora had to do was to calmly think about it, and she would know that she couldn’t trust Lennon Heninger. However, she desperately wanted to surpass Xaviera Evans. She didn’t want to be trampled under Xaviera’s feet and wanted to be above everyone else.
Quine Heninger had chosen Xaviera to be in charge, simply because Xaviera was Nina Hughes’ adopted daughter. Yet, Xaviera had never been in charge of any major cooperation and didn’t have the ability, but she had snatched the position because of her identity.
If Zora rejected Lennon’s proposal, then this great power would be handed over to Xaviera. She couldn’t accept Xaviera surpassing her. She wanted everyone to see that she was the most outstanding person in charge, and Xaviera was just a useless vase!
She didn’t dare reveal the truth to Lennon, so after a few seconds of silence, she agreed urgently, “Mr. Heninger, no problem at all.”
Lennon gave a gentle smile, “Alright, then from now on, I’ll contact Miss Hughes directly. When the family head’s congratulatory gift arrives, I’ll inform Miss Hughes to come over.”
Zora was ecstatic, her cheeks flushed slightly. She hadn’t expected such a bonus from visiting the Heninger family. Her head swirling, she left the villa and was still immersed in joy as she stepped out the door.
…
Two days later, Lennon informed Zora to come to the Hughes Villa and handed her a delicate box.
Zora opened it to find an exquisite, small porcelain carving. The craftsmanship was intricate, the colors vibrant, and it looked quite valuable. Holding the porcelain carving in her hand, she asked somewhat nervously, “Mr. Heninger, is this porcelain carving only given to me?”
Lennon nodded, “Of course, it’s specially made for the Hughes family by our family head.”
Zora started to feel nervous. If the carving was given to her, that meant Xaviera had also received her congratulatory gift. So, shouldn’t she have already made a fuss? After all, Xaviera was supposed to be the one in charge, and the carving was meant for her.
The next second, Lennon furrowed his brows and said, “Right, the afternoon Miss Hughes came, another woman also came, claiming to be the person in charge. But she was already driven away by the guards.”
Zora’s heart trembled. So, Xaviera had already been there, but the people from the Heninger family thought she was a liar and drove her away. Now everyone thought Xaviera had the porcelain carving, but what would she do at the opening ceremony of the shopping mall in a few days? How could she take out the carving in public?
Would she create a fake to get by for the time being?
If so, Zora could find someone to expose Xaviera beforehand and then produce the real porcelain carving. At that time, Xaviera’s reputation would plummet, and she would have no qualifications to undertake important tasks. Zora would become the justified person in charge.
Zora tightly clutched the box, already concocting a plan. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Lennon, she rushed home.
Watching Zora’s retreating figure, Lennon silently walked to a hidden spot. He peeled off a human skin mask from his face, revealing a familiar and fascinating face to the public.
Then another figure appeared behind the man. Quine stepped out with a calm expression and a hint of mockery in his tone, “Big brother’s acting skills are really good.”
Elijah Flack weighed the human skin mask in his hand and smiled, “Just average. Mainly because your mask was made so well. Once I put it on, my face was completely transformed. There was no way Zora would have noticed anything.”
Quine raised an eyebrow.
Watching Zora get into the car, Elijah smiled, “As expected, everything is within Xaviera’s expectation. Zora wants to make Xaviera publicly embarrassed and seize the position of the person in charge.”
Quine took out his mobile phone and sent Xaviera a message:[Xaviera, she has fallen into the trap.]
…
At the Hughes Villa.
“Zora! So now you’ve become the person in charge that the Heninger family acknowledges?” Nidya Hughes asked with astonishment and hesitated, “What about Xaviera?”
Zora frowned and replied somewhat helplessly, “I don’t know! That day when I went to the Heninger family, Xaviera was late to show up, so grandpa let me go in first. Later, I heard that Xaviera had contacted the Heningers, but they thought she was a liar and drove her away. Now, the Heninger family has acknowledged me as the person in charge and said they’d contact me directly for anything. They even gave me the porcelain carving that was meant as a congratulatory gift for the Hughes family.”
“So the Heninger family has acknowledged you as the person in charge, and Xaviera still tried to make a scene? Why would she do that? You’re all family, and it doesn’t matter who’s in charge. Why does she have to compete with you? I’m going to talk to her right now!” Nidya exclaimed indignantly.
