chapter 938


    Noticing that all eyes and attention were on her, Waverly’s lips curled up even more elegantly. ''The


    reason Anthony and his family can''t attend my birthday banquet isn''t due to our rtionship problem. It


    is because Anthony got hurt yesterday."


    Murmurs filled the hall as words were exchanged. Anthony was hurt?


    How could a big figure like Anthony get hurt at all?


    Was it all Waverly made up to conceal the truth?


    Fredrick and Max looked at Waverly strangely. She still wanted to hold the rtionship and present


    herself as such on stage? She wanted to hold it up all by herself?


    Waverly continued, "Regardless of whether everyone believes me or not, this is the truth. I’m not angry


    at them for not attending my birthday banquet. After all, this is just a birthday. What''s more important


    than Anthony''s health? Furthermore, as for what happened earlier, I owe you all an apology, it’s all a


    misunderstanding. It was so noisy that I mistook the moguls as scientists from Kansas, and that''s why I


    made such replies. No matter what, it was on me, and I offer my sincerest apologies for that. I hope


    everyone can have a lovely time for the remainder of the day," she formally spoke before cing down


    the microphone and walked off the stage elegantly. She was exuding an air of expensiveness from


    within, a very pleasing sight.

    Under such circumstances, she was still able to face the press with such calmness, and this disyed


    her formidable emotional quotient, i


    The crowd was supportive of the D''Cruz family.


    Furthermore, they did not want Kansas to look bad, thus the atmosphere gradually improved.


    It did not take long for some celebrities to go on stage to perform. Although they were not as big names


    as those at Charmine''s, they were well-known enough, good enough to please the audience that


    watched the live stream.


    When nobody was noticing, Fredrick pulled Waverly to the backstage and asked suspiciously,


    "Waverly, why did you do that? You should announce that you''re canceling the engagement. You can''t


    wrong yourself."


    "Dad, have you forgotten why I came back?" Waverly suddenly asked.


    Fredrick frowned. Her goal...


    After a moment, he let out a sigh. "It’s my fault for not helping you more..."


    "Dad, it''s not your fault. You’ve already helped me a lot. I’m grateful for what I have now. However, you


    must know that I won''t simply give up on my goal. I must achieve it, no matter how hard it is." Waverly’s


    voice was gentle and soft with a hint of determination.


    Fredrick grew even more worried as he asked with concern," However, they have made it so clear now.


    How will the Baileys ept you?"


    "Don''t worry. As long as they haven''t found a better match, they won''t simply give up on me. I only


    need to say a few words to them," replied Waverly as she picked up her phone and called Grandma


    Bailey, i


    Fredrick did not understand what she meant, but the call was already answered.


    Grandma Bailey scoffed at her, "Why are you calling? You want to threaten me like your father?"


    "Grandma Bailey, you''ve misunderstood. I''m calling to apologize to you. My father was too impatient,


    and it''s my fault. We were too impatient, and we needed to calm down. Furthermore, if Mr. Bailey and


    Ms. Jordan get engaged anyhow, I’ll leave. Before then, I truly love Anthony, and as long as he isn’t


    with Charmine officially, I''ll keep waiting however long it takes. I hope you can permit this humble love


    of mine." i


    Her tone was gentle and humbling.


    Grandma Bailey did not expect Waverly to say such things. All of a sudden, it seemed that she was the


    impatient one.


    Susan quickly signaled to her and said in a low voice, "Since they can''t get married, we can''t make an


    enemy out of them
