Chapter 1268 - Chapter 1268 Chapter 1268 The Difference between the Two

Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268: The Difference between the Two Misses is as Vast as the Earth and the Sky Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268: The Difference between the Two Misses is as Vast as the Earth and the Sky Zora Hughes walked up, her eyes gleaming, and spoke softly, “Grandpa, please take care of your health. We can still solve this situation.”

Cory Hughes’s eyes raised with a glimmer of hope at her words.

Xaviera Evans crossed her arms, amused at the scene before her. Zora Hughes finally made a move.

Zora pretended to be helpless, glancing at Xaviera before turning back to her grandfather, “Grandpa, I met Mr. Lennon Heninger coincidentally. He is the ninth disciple of the head of the Heninger family. At the time, he even gifted me a piece of porcelain carving done by the family head himself.”

“Now that Xaviera has sold Mr. Heninger’s porcelain carving, he will surely be angry when he finds out. But if we were to present a carving created by the Heninger family head at the opening ceremony, and later pay a visit to apologize, we could express to Mr. Heninger that our actions were not out of disrespect for the Heninger family, but rather due to Xaviera’s momentary confusion. Perhaps Mr. Heninger could forgive us for the family head’s sake.”

Zora spoke gracefully, leaving Cory Hughes aghast. After a few seconds, his eyes began to twinkle with joy, “Zora, is that true? Do you really have a porcelain carving from the head of the Heninger family?”

By this point, Zora’s words had already spread through the speaker for everyone present to hear. So it turned out that Miss Hughes had a porcelain carving from the head of the Heninger family!

People had heard that the Heninger family head had retreated ten years ago and had not created any porcelain carvings since. Could it be true that he had made another one?

The master of Black Island and Quine Heninger’s father gave a porcelain carving made by his own hand to Zora Hughes through his disciple Lennon Heninger?

Cory Hughes trembled with excitement, “Zora, quickly bring out the porcelain carving! Why didn’t you show it earlier? We have wasted so much time on Xaviera Evans!”

Zora appeared somewhat wronged and full of regret, “Grandpa, it’s my fault. I believed that Xaviera was in charge. Xaviera had already obtained a porcelain carving from Mr. Heninger. Today was supposed to be her day to showcase the carving. If I showed Mr. Heninger’s carving recklessly, wouldn’t it seem like I’m stealing her thunder? I didn’t want Xaviera to misunderstand, so I didn’t bring it out.”

“I had thought that Xaviera could present the carving and take the spotlight in front of everyone. I intended to give the carving to you after the opening ceremony. I didn’t expect that something like this would happen…sigh.”

Zora’s voice was full of helplessness and guilt, soft and gentle, evoking sympathy from those who heard it.

To the people present, Xaviera had obtained a carving from Mr. Heninger, but for her personal satisfaction, she sold the genuine carving and brought out a forgery to show. On the other hand, Zora had a carving from the head of the Heninger family in her possession, but she kept it low profile, not wanting to steal the attention from her sister. Now, due to unforeseen circumstances, she had no choice but to reveal it publicly.

The contrast between the two was like night and day.

Cory Hughes, whose face had been gloomy, began to smile. He had thought that he would lose face at the opening ceremony, but Zora had given him such a pleasant surprise.

He asked urgently, “Where is the carving? Bring it out quickly!”

Zora smiled faintly, “Don’t worry, Grandpa; I have sent someone to guard the porcelain carving. It’s in the restroom. I can command them to bring it out now.”

“Zora, you’ve never disappointed me! You are truly the pride of our Hughes family!” Cory Hughes laughed heartily, then shot Xaviera a cold glance full of disgust.

It was this very moment that Cory Hughes noticed the counterfeit porcelain on the table. Recognizing that it was the cause of today’s face-loss, his expression turned grim, “Get that counterfeit out of here! Such filth doesn’t deserve to be on our family’s territory!”

The filth he referred to was not only the counterfeit porcelain, but also Xaviera Evans. Had there not been guests present, he might have already kicked her out.

Xaviera’s delicate fingers pressed on the purple porcelain, her cold eyes meeting Cory Hughes’s, “You really want to throw this away? Don’t regret it afterward.”

“What, are you still not convinced?” Cory Hughes’s brow furrowed, and he yelled, “Get rid of this counterfeit! I don’t ever want to see it again.”

This counterfeit could not be allowed to appear before Mr. Heninger, so he needed to eliminate it quickly.

The bodyguard followed his orders, approached Xaviera, and snatched the porcelain from her hands. He gave her a seemingly unintentional glance, to which she subtly nodded in response. The bodyguard then left the room with the porcelain in hand.

Cory Hughes shouted angrily, gasping for air. After a while, he finally regained his composure and spoke more calmly, “Zora, don’t keep everyone waiting. Bring out your porcelain carving now.”
