Chapter 1297 - Chapter 1297 Chapter 1297 Who is Really Bullying Whom

Chapter 1297: Chapter 1297: Who is Really Bullying Whom? Chapter 1297: Chapter 1297: Who is Really Bullying Whom? Xaviera was immediately speechless. These people had been completely brainwashed by Fiona Reiser. Over the years, Fiona had maintained a good image, making her reputation among the noble ladies impeccable. She was gentle, talented, but not arrogant; many men saw her as the goddess of their dreams. They attended the charity event in the hopes of getting closer to her and showing off their skills in front of Fiona, which is why they had lost their reason at this point.

— Who do you think you are? Just because you’re wearing a genuine necklace doesn’t mean you can bully anyone?

Were these even human words? Fiona didn’t care about right or wrong; she just accused Xaviera of wearing counterfeit. Now that she had been proven wrong, she was still pretending to be innocent in front of everyone. Who was bullying who here?

In fact, they were all well aware that Fiona was not as kind-hearted as she appeared. When she first made those comments, there was a clear tone of sarcasm. Yet, to these men, Fiona could do no wrong, and they would find all sorts of reasons to defend her.

When Fiona arrogantly offered to lend her necklace to Xaviera, it was because she was kind-hearted. Now that Xaviera was talking back, she was being unreasonable, purposefully targeting Fiona.

What a way to twist words!

The young man sized up Xaviera again. There was no denying that she was beautiful, but her personality was too strong headed. Moreover, her social status wasn’t high enough to marry him, so Miss Reiser was still a better match.

Surprisingly, a sudden burst of confidence surged in his heart. “Miss Evans, you’re different from Miss Reiser. She’s donating her necklace, while you’re wearing yours to show off. Your intentions are different, so you have no right to blame her!”

Xaviera raised her eyes slightly and said nonchalantly, “I’m afraid that’s where you’re wrong. I brought this necklace today just for the purpose of donating it.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the young man choked. Fiona, who was beside him, also widened her eyes, a mix of shock and delight in her gaze. If Xaviera were to donate the Combustion Heart, then the necklace would eventually end up in her own hands. The charity event was just a facade; it merely served as a tool for the Reiser family to accumulate wealth.

But if Xaviera were to donate such a valuable piece of jewelry, she would definitely steal the limelight at the charity event.

Fiona couldn’t help feel a mix of joy and reluctance. She asked in disbelief, “Xaviera, are you really going to donate Combustion Heart? The necklace is worth 150 million dollars; are you sure?”

“Of course I’m sure. If Miss Reiser can donate a necklace, why can’t I? Besides, I’m not short of just one necklace.” Xaviera said nonchalantly.

Fiona bit her lip, and Rae immediately came to her defense. “Fiona is donating a necklace, and now you want to as well. You’re just copying her; you’re so annoying!”

Xaviera raised her eyebrows and replied leisurely, “Isn’t the purpose of this charity event to donate money and items? Are you saying that when Miss Reiser donates a necklace, no one else can?”

“Does the Reiser family have a special rule for this charity event? This necklace is worth 150 million dollars; I’m donating it to build schools in mountainous areas. What does this have to do with Miss Reiser? This necklace belongs to me; do I need Miss Reiser’s permission if I want to make a donation?”

“Or perhaps…” Xaviera paused for a moment, her tone hinting at mischief, “Miss Reiser doesn’t want me to donate to the mountain areas and help them build schools?”

Fiona’s face turned pale, and her mind buzzed. Xaviera was slandering her!

Over the years, the Reiser family had become famous for its charity work. If people found out that Fiona was such a hypocrite, they would question the true purpose of the Reiser family’s charity events. Were they really for those in need, or were they just a way to polish their image?

Fiona suppressed her anger, her voice strained, “Xaviera, I… I didn’t mean it that way. I just wanted to remind you that the necklace is very valuable. If you truly want to donate it, of course I’d be happy. But if you’re doing it out of spite, then there’s no need. After all, this necklace is a gift from someone. It would be a waste to just donate it like that…”

Everyone looked puzzled. Did Miss Reiser mean that the necklace was a gift for Miss Evans, not something she bought herself? After all, Xaviera was just Nina Hughes’ adopted daughter, and she probably didn’t have the means to purchase such an expensive necklace.
