Chapter 463


    Meredith was wearing a long ck dress which was decorated with diamonds. Her delicate cor


    bones and left shoulder were revealed, and a dazzling obsidian ne was around her neck.


    For the first time, her delicate features were heavily made-up, which made her look even more


    attractive and charming. Tonight, Meredith was dressed boldly than ever.


    Well, people had different dressing styles at home and abroad. Since they came here, it was better to


    do as the Romans do.


    "Honey, you''re beautiful tonight." Derek held her slender waist and whispered to her with a faint smile.


    The smile on Meredith''s lips did not disappear, but she pinched his arm secretly. "So many people are


    here, don''t be ridiculous."


    Derek didn''t care. In fact, he felt she was just tickling him although Meredith pinched him hard.


    They walked on the red carpet, went up the steps, signed their names on the red board, and took a few


    photos together before entering the venue.


    ording to the figures in the invitation, they found the seats prepared for the Xavier Group. ording


    to the status of the Xavier Group in Country H, their seats were at the front.


    Damian and the others did not need to walk on the red carpet. They had already entered through a


    special passageway in advance and were sitting in seats that prepared for the Xavier Group.


    More and more representatives came in through the entrance. Damian suddenly said, "Boss, the


    Horton Family arrives."


    This name was not unfamiliar to them at all, especially to Meredith. She hadpeted with ady from


    the Horton Family when she first attended apetition.


    They immediately looked over.


    The strong middle-aged man in a ck suit with blond hair and blue eyes walked in front should be the


    head of the Horton Family, Green Horton.


    They also saw their old acquaintance, Robert, who had gone to the headquarters of the Xavier Group


    to negotiate with them. And others should be shareholders or elders of the Horton Family.


    But...


    And they were surprised to see a young girl who they had met before.


    She was Tina, the unfavored elder daughter of the Horton Family.


    They remembered thatst time, Tina had been following Judy obediently, not daring to speak loudly or


    raise her head to look into others'' eyes.


    But at this moment, Tina waspletely different. She dressed in a dazzling violet dress and wore


    exquisite makeup, and her eyes were no longer timid but confident and proud.


    Damian raised his eyebrows, "It seems that Tina reces her sister because her sister was disfigured


    after the fight?"


    Derek withdrew his eyes, "Although the second Miss of the Horton Family is not very smart, she does


    have a talent for design. But I don''t think her sister is talented though she may be smarter..."


    His meaning was quite obvious.


    Indeed, what Horton Family had done was quite confusing. Fashion design had nothing to do with


    designers'' appearance, so their second Miss''s disfiguration should not be a problem.


    But they allowed the elder Miss who had never studied design to rece the second Miss.


    The head of the Horton Family also saw Derek. He paused and turned to walk towards them.


    "Mr. Xavier, we haven''t seen each other for three or four years, right?" Green Horton smiled and


    reached his hand.


    Derek shook his hand, "Maybe, I don''t remember it very well."


    "Mr. Xavier has achieved so much at such a young age. You''re really a role model for the younger


    generation of our Horton Family. It''s not a shame that Robert lost to you at the negotiating table."


    Green Horton''s words were meaningful.


    Derek raised an eyebrow, "Lose? Mr. Horton, you''re joking. The business has always been about


    mutual benefit. If there is no benefit, there is no cooperation. No one has lost, it''s a win-win situation."


    The head of the Horton Family smiled and didn''t say anything. He turned to look at Meredith.


    "This is Mrs. Xavier, right? She''s a perfect match for you, Mr. Xavier. I heard that Mrs. Xavier hasn''t


    studied design at college before, but she had defeated my talented second daughter. I really appreciate


    her."


    Damian frowned. What did this old man mean?


    He said that Meredith, a person who had never studied design at college had defeated his talented


    daughter. Did he mean that something was wrong with thepetition?


    Derek narrowed his eyes. He didn''t know if Meredith understood Green Horton''s words. She was


    smiling shyly.


    "Mr. Horton, you ttered me. I''m already very happy that several masters liked my design. As for the


    Damian almostughed out loud. Derek raised his eyebrows in surprise and then curled his lips.


    Meredith meant that it was enough for her ability to be recognized by those masters. As for the


    evaluation of the head of the Horton Family, it was dispensable. It was not important anyway.


    Green Horton''s expression did not change, but it seemed that he was both embarrassed and angry. He


    smiled again and introduced Tina.


    "This is my eldest daughter, Tina. You''ve met each otherst time. This time, the works of our Horton

    Family are all by her."


    "Although she is smart, she hasn''t studied design. Today, I brought her here to learn more."


    "There must be Mrs. Xavier''s work in today''s exhibition. In that case, you can learn from each other


    and make progress together. Hahaha..."


    Derek''s face turned cold. How dare the old man say that?


    They could learn from each other? Wasn''t he indicating that Meredith''s design skills were about the


    same as her daughter, who had never learned how to design?


    After Green Horton finished speaking, Tina immediately stepped forward, smiled at Meredith and said


    softly, "Mrs. Xavier, I really hope we can learn from each other."


    Her words immediately froze the atmosphere.


    ''Learn from each other?'' What could Meredith learn from her? Tina Horton was quite brazen.


    Derek''s sharp eyes stared straight at her and he said without being polite, "Miss Tina, since you


    represent the Horton Family, you''d better be more humble."


    "Since my wife has won your sister, who is very talented, then only you, who is not very talented, can


    learn from my wife, but she can''t learn anything from you."


    Tina''s face stiffened and her gentle smile almost disappeared.
