“Jenna, are you done changing yet? The banquet is about to begin.”
“Come out. Dad will tell you about the etiquette of a toast again.”
It was Mr. Lockhart and Mrs. Lockhart!
There might even be others outside too!
Xavia averted her gaze nervously, holding her dress up as she told Zivon, “You haven’t found my elder sister yet? I'll hide in the closet for now. You should solve this by yourself.”
“Don't move.” Zivon grabbed her slender wrist. “Do you think it makes sense for a person to come in and not go out? Or do you want them to find you and think that you have an ulterior motive?”
He was domineering and calm even at a time like this.
Xavia frowned, looking troubled. “But even if I go out with you now, people will still misunderstand me. What is even happening right now? This is such a dilemma.”
Xavia looked helpless and sad.
Zivon was angry at first, but when he saw her pitiful expression, his anger disappeared completely. He spoke softly, “Mr. Miller has already sent someone to look into the matter. We have to wait and see what is going on first. In the meantime, you should change your clothes and follow me.”
Xavia pursed her lips unhappily.
What else could she do? There was no other option.
After she finished changing her clothes, she opened the door.
Mr. Lockhart, Mrs. Lockhart, Chace, and Zayne were all standing outside.
When they saw that ‘Jenna’ was blushing and that Zivon was also present, Mr. Lockhart and Mrs. Lockhart naturally misunderstood and said cheerfully, “Zivon is here too? The ceremony just now was really great. The both of you are actually so affectionate! That’s really good, we're glad.”
Their suggestive tones made Xavia's small face turn even redder.
She had not done anything with Zivon inside the room!
“Jenna, why hasn’t your hair been done up yet? Stylist, come and take care of it!”
“Jenna, you will be giving a toast around very important and powerful figures later. You have to remember to use both hands, but also not
hold your hands up too high…”
