Chapter 1423 - Chapter 1423 Chapter 1423 No One Likes a Woman Who Lies

Chapter 1423: Chapter 1423: No One Likes a Woman Who Lies Chapter 1423: Chapter 1423: No One Likes a Woman Who Lies Fiona Reiser stretched out her hand, wanting to stop Lorin Campbell, but could only stand helplessly on the side and sigh, seemingly out of control.

Perhaps the people Fiona Reiser bribed had played their part, and Xaviera Evans’ actions had indeed provoked public anger.

“If she pretends to have had a car accident, I wish it were true. It would be better if she died on the road, then everyone could have some sympathy for her. Relying on her temptress-like face to gain sympathy, such a person shouldn’t be present at the cultural relics restoration event.”

Listening to the increasingly intense cursing, Fiona felt very pleased and even wanted to vent her anger by cursing Xaviera Evans; now she could finally trample Xaviera under her feet.

Even if Xaviera was Doctor Faces, who would believe her? Now she had lost both her reputation and her credibility, simply no match for Caleb Mamet!

Under such public opinion, even if Caleb still liked her, he would probably waver. After all, nobody likes a woman who lies.

Fiona tried to control her joy, maintaining a worried expression, afraid that she might laugh out loud. Just as she secretly rejoiced, she suddenly caught a figure at the corner of her eye at the door.

“Didn’t I just arrive?” The cold female voice passed through the crowd and entered Fiona’s ears, her facial expression freezing in an instant.

Xaviera? How…how did she get here? Wasn’t she in a car accident? Those people should have succeeded by now, and Xaviera should be in the hospital fighting for her life!

The previously noisy hall instantly quieted down; everyone seemed to be holding their breaths. The magnificent entrance was brilliantly illuminated, with an elegant figure standing under the light. She had a beige coat on, wearing high heels, and exuding an overwhelming presence as she walked in. Everyone unconsciously made way for her and watched as she walked up to Fiona Reiser.

Xaviera glanced coldly at Fiona, the corner of her mouth slightly raised. She then turned around to face everyone, “I’m sorry, everyone, I’m late.”

Everyone then noticed that the reason why she wore a coat was because her right hand was in a cast and heavily bandaged.

“Xaviera really came?”

“She was injured! Did she really have a car accident?”

Just now, as Xaviera walked by, it was clear to see that the color drained from Fiona’s face. Xaviera gave a slight smile and turned to the person beside her, “Expert Agnes, I can still compete.”

Expert Agnes looked worriedly at her injured hand, “But you…you’re injured!”

“It’s okay, it’s just one hand. I can still cope with the competition. We had agreed to compete, I can’t go back on my word now.”

Xaviera slightly turned, a mocking smile playing on her face as she looked at Fiona, her voice still cold and with a hint of ridicule: “Knowledge is stored in the brain. Even if my hand is injured, I can prove my ability in other ways.”

At these words, everyone turned their attention to Fiona. It seemed that as long as Xaviera appeared, she could quickly turn the tables. The once bright and dazzling Fiona immediately lost her shine.

Fiona felt a sudden chill as if her blood had solidified, her face growing increasingly pale. Her refined makeup could not conceal her current panic, but she quickly regained her composure and voicing her concern: “Xaviera, you’re really injured. Is your hand okay? We’re all worried about you. If your injuries are severe, don’t compete for now. This wouldn’t be fair to you. You can compete once you’re healed.”

Xaviera chuckled lightly, “So, Miss Reiser doesn’t want to compete?”

Fiona was taken aback as her eyes filled with panic. Of course, she didn’t want to compete, but…

Her face turned from white to green, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead. Holding back her panic, she bit her lip and retorted, “Xaviera, I decided to postpone the competition because I worry about your hand, how did that become me not wanting to compete? Now that you’re injured, how can the competition proceed? If this gets out, people will say I took advantage of you. What’s the point of having the title of ‘Doctor Faces’? You win this competition. If you really want this title, I can give it to you…”

Xaviera nearly burst into laughter, about to retort when a brash voice came from behind her, from a man who had been helping Fiona all along.

“Xaviera! Don’t go too far with your words! Miss Reiser is clearly worried about your injury, but you insist on being aggressive! Who knows if you really had a car accident or got injured, it seems to me that you’re just looking for an excuse to avoid the match!”
