Chapter 602: Running on Both Sides of the Fence

On the other side of the banquet hall.

These guests were all invited by Elijah Flack and his group while Xaviera Evans had no involvement.

The Ross family attended due to Xaviera’s life-saving favor, and the other families had deep connections with the Flack, Sullvian, and Hamer families. Knowing Xaviera’s identity, they naturally came to her birthday banquet.

When Xaviera went to Imperial Capital, she had caused quite a stir. Everyone knew that these major families treated her like a rare gem in the palm of their hands.

Moreover, they all knew that Xaviera married that gentleman, and he was no ordinary man.

As people entered the banquet hall, they discovered that the second son of the Mamet family, Yigol Mamet, was mixing drinks for everyone. This further confirmed Xaviera’s lofty status.

The Armstrong family found out that Xaviera might be the legendary top hacker, Black Tide, so Miss Armstrong rushed over from the Imperial Capital.

No matter if Xaviera was a treasure of the four major families, Mrs. Mamet, or Black Tide, any of these identities was impressive.

At this moment, the banquet hall was packed. Everyone huddled around Xaviera, making Sara Wendleton and her group grind their teeth in anger.

“Miss Evans, Miss Evans!”

A guest who hurried over from Anna Campbell’s party anxiously shouted, “Happy Birthday, Miss Evans! We came here to celebrate your birthday, but Mr. Campbell and Mrs. Campbell didn’t let us leave earlier, so we were delayed. I’m sure you wouldn’t blame us.”

“Yes, Miss Evans, we originally planned to come over after giving our gifts at that side, but who knew that Miss Anna Campbell would keep us chatting for a while, so we were late. But now, as soon as we put our things down, we hurried over.”

Xaviera smiled meaningfully, and everyone fearfully lowered their heads.

Yigol Mamet whispered, “They’re just a bunch of fence-sitters. Seeing the more prestigious guests over here, they flocked to Xaviera’s side. It doesn’t matter whether such people come or not.”

“It’s okay. I won’t blame them,” Xaviera said gently with a shallow smile.

The guests rejoiced and enthusiastically walked inside. After entering, they were frightened, as there were many big shots here that they dared not provoke, so they had to be cautious.

Sara Wendleton begrudgingly followed, her parents coldly snorting, “So it turns out that Anna is the real adopted daughter. If we had known this, we wouldn’t have let you please her. What a waste of half a day’s effort.”

“Didn’t you offend Miss Evans because of Anna earlier? Are you stupid? Don’t you know who Miss Evans is? Those families attending her birthday banquet could easily point a finger and cause our Wendleton family to suffer a great deal. You’re trying to ruin the Wendleton family!”

Sara Wendleton bit her lip hard, refusing to speak.

She tried to please Anna Campbell for the sake of the Wendleton family, but who knew Xaviera had such a profound background? It’s too late to say anything now. Xaviera probably wouldn’t forgive her, so she could only hope that they wouldn’t cause trouble for the Wendleton family.

At this moment, Anna Campbell walked in with Jeremy Campbell and Nidya Hughes. Seeing everyone surrounding Xaviera to wish her a happy birthday, her face darkened.

Nidya Hughes grumbled, “Don’t they see that we’re here too? Why isn’t anyone wishing Anna a happy birthday!”

Anna gently lowered her head, saying sadly, “Mom, it’s okay. Let’s go in.”

On the other side, Xenia Jaak watched everyone take their seats and snorted coldly, “They just mocked you earlier, and now they’ve come running back after knowing who’s backing you. It’s all because you let them in. If it were me, I’d have the guards kick them out!”

“There’s a reason for letting them in,” Xaviera winked, giving a sly smile.

Xenia looked puzzled.

Calmly, Xaviera explained, “They came from Anna Campbell’s banquet hall, originally intending to celebrate her birthday. Now, they’ve rushed over to mine before her birthday party ended. I bet Anna’s expression is quite interesting right now!”

At this moment, Anna Campbell must be extremely furious!

As soon as Xaviera finished saying this, she heard a commotion not far away. She looked towards the noise and saw Anna Campbell’s increasingly twisted face, her eyes filled with resentment.

Xaviera sneered, “What did I say? They’ve already come chasing after.”
