    68 Chapter 68: The Invitation from


    the Coriell Family


    Inside the vi, Caleb Mamet nced away slightly:


    “Mrs. Mamet doesn’t have any questions?”


    Xaviera Evans was taken aback: “…What do you


    me to ask?”


    want


    Caleb smirked, full of sarcasm: “Aren’t you interested in the fact that the head of the Mamet family is an


    illegitimate child?”


    Xaviera: “??”


    Why would she be interested?


    Every family has its difficulties, and she had her hands full dealing with her own family’s problems; she


    had no time to be interested in other people’s grievances or hatreds. Besides… What could one’s


    background represent? Who would want to be born an illegitimate child? If infants had a choice, they


    would rather be born into a poor family than be an illegitimate child who couldn’t see the light of day,


    especially one from a rich and wealthy family.


    68 Chapter 68: The Invitation from the Coriell Family


    Xaviera had heard some stories about Caleb’s


    childhood from the housekeeper and knew that Mrs. Mamet often abused him when he was little, not


    giving him food or drink, and often putting him in solitary confinement. Xaviera thought that behind


    every sessful person lies bitterness; very few people have a smooth life from the very beginning.


    Take her and Caleb, for example. At least she was


    better off than Caleb because she had Uncle Evans, who sincerely cared for her and made her


    childhood less miserable. But Caleb was entirely on his own; it was said that he even had a younger


    brother. They were born from the same mother, but their treatments


    were worlds apart.


    Mrs. Mamet doted on her younger son, giving him everything he wanted, and even sought to wrest


    control of the Mamet family from Caleb and pass it on


    to her younger son.


    When she first heard these stories, Xaviera wondered if Caleb was truly Mrs. Mamet’s biological child.


    She pondered whether there was a dramatic twist, like a plot where an imposter prince takes the ce


    of the real one. Otherwise, why would a mother treat her


    68 Chapter 68: The Invitation from the Coriell Family


    children so differently?


    Caleb leaned against the recently tidied sofa and cast


    her a casual look.


    It was at this moment when the housekeeper returned after seeing off the guests: “Mr. Mamet, thedy


    said she came today to tell you that the Coriell family is hosting a banquet at Mifo Hotel. Sir Coriell’s


    intention is to have you in attendance…”


    Sir Coriell.


    Xaviera caught the keyword, and Caleb’s cherry blossom eyes narrowed as well. If the invitation came


    from anyone else in the Coriell family, he could simply ignore it. But he couldn’t do that for Sir Coriell,


    who had once helped the Mamet family. It was reasonable for him to ept the invitation.


    Moreover, Sir Coriell was the only sensible person in


    the Coriell family.


    The housekeeper continued when he saw that Caleb didn’t say anything, and his face did not show


    much resentment: “The reason the Coriell family is having a banquet is because they have acquired


    one of Lohill’s designed dresses. This dress is a worldwide limited


    68 Chapter 68: The Invitation from the Coriell Family


    edition, and the Coriell family purchased it. The Coriell family has invited many people from the upper


    ss, as well as elites from the fashion industry. They are most likely looking to break into the high–


    end luxury dress market.”


    Xaviera stiffened when she heard the name “Lohill.“,


    Her designed dress was in the possession of the Coriell family? How did it get there? She didn’t have


    many global limited–edition designs in her collection, but her favorite was ‘Fleeting Time.’


    Before Xaviera could finish her thought, the housekeeper continued: “The dress is Lohill’s design,


    ‘Fleeting Time. There are very few design drafts by Lohill in cirction, and even fewer finished


    products. When ‘Fleeting Time‘ first appeared, countless people fought for it, but then it suddenly fell


    silent. People spected at the time that it had been bought at a high price, but they didn’t expect the


    buyer to be the Coriell family.”

    It seems that although the Coriell family has declined in recent years, their solid foundation remains.


    Xaviera: “.”


    68 Chapter 88: The Invitation from the Coriell Family


    nodded without hesitation.


    Caleb chuckled lightly: “You’re such a naughty kid.”


    As soon as he heard Xaviera’s tone, he knew she was thinking of something, and he guessed there


    must be something wrong with the Coriell family’s ‘Fleeting Time‘. But he didn’t really care about that,


    the people from the Coriell family had been bouncing around in front of himtely, teaching them a little
