“Everyone, please remember that spreading unfounded rumors and ndering others couldnd you a
letter from awyer.”
Manager Bateman joined in, “Don’t worry Miss, I will handle this matter. I will definitely clear your
name.”
The person who had just spoken was stunned.
They were just casually agreeing, how did that be nderous?
After dealing with the gossiping customer, Xaviera Evans turned her attention to Moore Mamet, smiling
as she asked, “I heard that Mr. Mamet wasing over today. Did you set your sights on the new
guitar that just arrived in our store?”
Moore Mamet responded somewhat unnaturally, “Yes, is there a problem?”
Xaviera Evans lightly hooked the corner of her lips, “Not at all. Anything Mr. Mamet is interested in, just
let someone know and I’ll have it personally delivered.

There’s no need for Mr. Mamet to take the trouble to
Moore Mamet didn’t expect Xaviera Evans to say this. He was somewhat pleasantly surprised, “No
need, I wanted toe see it in person. Thank you for your kind intention, Xaviera.”
Xaviera?All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.
He’s calling her Xaviera now?
Xaviera shook her head. Despite not wearing any makeup, her refined features were stunning, causing
Moore Mamet to notice for the first time just how beautiful Xaviera was. Dressed casually in a simple
hoodie, she easily attracted everyone’s attention.
Her spirited brows and eyes, sharper than those of Mag Evans, were like a sheathed sword –
mysterious and dangerous.
“There’s no need to thank me. After all, that guitar is worth a fortune. We went to great lengths to
acquire it. It’s fate that Mr. Mamet has taken a liking to it. As the person in charge of the shop, I’ll give
Mr. Mamet a 10% discount.”

Xaviera continued, “The price of the guitar is 1.2 million dors. Will Mr. Mamet be paying by card or
check?”
Once her words fell, the shop instantly fell silent.
Moore Mamet’s face didn’t look so good, “What did you say, Xaviera?”
“I said it’s 1.2 million dors, Mr. Mamet, time to pay up.” Xaviera’s smile was filled with hidden
meaning.
“What are you doing, sister?”
Seeing Moore Mamet’s displeasure, Mag Evans stepped forward and coquettishly said, “Given the
close rtionship between Moore and our family, how can we charge him for his purchases?”
Xaviera’s smile didn’t reach her eyes, “What
rtionship does he have with the Evans family? Why shouldn’t he pay when buying something? In
business, clear ounts make for good friends. Even if they’re real brothers, they should still settle
ounts clearly, Why should I give away the guitar which cost me a lot to buy?”
Then there would be no need for her to continue

running this shop.
If Moore were to drop by a couple more times in a month to take a few things, their shop would go out
of business!
“You…” Mag Evans was speechless.
Xaviera didn’t care what she was thinking, she directly instructed Manager Bateman to pull up the
invoice. She was curious about just how much stuff Moore Mamet had taken from the store over the
years!
Moore Mamet’s face looked terrible.
The marriage alliance between the Mamet and Evans families was firmly established. Every time he
came to the shop to buy something, Mag Evans would say it was free. She said that they were all one
family and it’s pointless to quibble over petty cash.
At first, Moore Mamet felt ufortable about it, but he gradually got used to it. After taking something
from the shop, he would also send Mag Evans a gift of equivalent value.
But others didn’t know about this!
After Xaviera had totaled up all the items Moore

Mamet had taken from the shop over the years, her face didn’t look so good.
“Mr. Mamet, you owe more than 30 million dors… Our little shop doesn’t even make that much in a
year! In fact, there are many a number of items far beyond our purchasing power that we managed to
acquire just because you wanted them. Yet, you took them without showing any gratitude. Have you no
shame?”
For the first time, Moore Mamet saw Xaviera being so aggressively confrontational.
He defended himself with a dark face, “I didn’t.”
“You didn’t?”
Xaviera turned theputer screen towards him, pointing to record after record on the screen and
asked, “You didn’t take them? Are you saying our shop staff is framing you with fake books?”
Manager Bateman was frantic, “Miss, it’s a
misunderstanding. I swear that every invoice here is real. Mr. Mamet, surely you wouldn’t let such a
small amount as 30 million dors stand between us? The surveince cameras in our shop are still
working. We can check everything that you have taken.”

Hearing Manager Bateman’s words, Moore Mamet’s
face looked even worse. While he had taken those
things, he hadn’t exactly taken them for free!
Making him admit now that he had taken these things for free was absolutely disgusting!
Fortunately, Mag Evans knew how to read facial expressions. She bit her lip and stepped forward to tug
at Xaviera’s sleeve, speaking in an embarrassed tone, “Sister, can you stop pressuring Moore? Those
things were all gifts from me to him, he didn’t take anything from our family for free…”
“They were gifts from you? That’s perfect then.”
Xaviera printed the bill and stuffed it into Mag Evans‘ hand, “You gave them to him, so you can settle
this
bill.”
Mag Evans held the bill as though it were a hot potato. What was she supposed to repay it with, it’s
over 30
million dors?
“Sister, why are you being like this…” Her expression was aggrieved, she was holding back tears.
