Chapter 425: 425: Giving Xaviera Evans a Chance to Correct Herself

Howard Scot sneered, “You’re quibbling!”

Xaviera laughed lightly, “Isn’t Mr. Scot quibbling as well? You said that you saw me destroy the materials, but no one else did. Your word alone isn’t trustworthy, especially since you’re full of hostility towards me!”

“How…how is it not trustworthy? You’re jealous of Zara, you’re afraid of losing to her, so you destroyed her materials. What’s wrong with that? I saw it with my own eyes, and I have no reason to frame you!”

Howard Scot argued confidently, “This is the first time I’ve met you, and I have no reason to target you for no reason. Can telling the truth also be suspected? I just don’t want everyone to be deceived.”

Seeing this, Zara Woods earnestly advised, “Xaviera, don’t make a fuss anymore. In fact, there’s nothing wrong with admitting it. You’re a newcomer, and everyone won’t blame you. This incident hasn’t really affected the other designers, and they won’t say anything about it. Later, we can tell everyone that you withdrew from the competition due to health reasons, in order to preserve your reputation as much as possible.”

She then bowed, her face gentle, “Everyone, although Xaviera has done something wrong, she is still young and it’s her first time participating in a competition. I hope you will give her a chance and not spread this incident. I believe Xaviera will make efforts to correct herself and not do this again in the future. I beg everyone.”

The crowd hesitated for a moment. As Zara, the concerned party, was not holding a grudge against Xaviera, what could they say? They gave Xaviera a chance to correct herself, all out of respect for Zara, so they all nodded in agreement.

Zara turned around, and smiled gently, “Xaviera, you see, everyone has let it go, and this way, your reputation will be preserved, and the competition will proceed as usual. You don’t have to…”

“Zara Woods, what kind of sympathy are you trying to show? Isn’t this just a disguised way of forcing Xaviera to confess?”

An annoyed voice interrupted Zara before she could finish.

“What do you mean by giving Xaviera a chance to correct herself? You’re actually pinning the blame on her! If she agrees, how can she establish herself in the design world? Why don’t you let her explain?”

Mr. Yigol Mamet wasn’t going to indulge her, and directly rebuked, his eyes burning with rage. “Xaviera has already said that the brooch is hers, but she did not destroy the materials!”

The whole room fell silent.

Zara bit her lip, looking aggrieved, “Yigol…”

Howard Scot immediately stepped forward to defend her, “Mr. Yigol Mamet, Zara has been very considerate of Xaviera, not pursuing her responsibility and has even persuaded everyone else not to pursue it either. She only needs to apologize. Are you still not satisfied?”

Yigol roared, “I’ll say it again, Xaviera didn’t do it! Are you fucking deaf?!”

Howard Scot angrily retorted, “It is her! Xaviera, don’t just rely on Mr. Yigol Mamet to protect you and refuse to admit your mistakes! You don’t know when to quit! Making a scene won’t do you any good!”

The other designers’ eyes were filled with anger and hostility, “Xaviera, don’t you think you’re going too far? Miss Woods has been very forgiving. Can’t you even apologize?”

Yigol was trembling with rage.

Xaviera patted Yigol’s shoulder, “Don’t worry, it’s okay.”

She then smiled confidently, “Mr. Scot, the person who destroyed the materials should be disqualified from the competition, right?”

Howard Scot paused for a moment.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Everyone was puzzled. From start to finish, Xaviera never looked the slightest bit nervous, even emphasizing that the person who destroyed the materials should be disqualified from the competition. What did she mean?

Seeing Xaviera speak up, Yigol’s expression eased a bit. He knew that Xaviera wouldn’t just swallow her resentment when being framed, and her speaking up meant she was about to fight back.

He was excited, anxiously waiting for Xaviera to strike back.

“That’s right! The person who destroyed the materials should be disqualified from the competition! Howard Scot! Zara, do you agree?”

Howard Scot suddenly felt a bit nervous.

Zara looked helpless, “Xaviera, what exactly do you want? Actually, withdrawing from the competition would at least… but since you’ve said that, I have nothing more to say. So be it.”
