Xavia didn’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but his lips touched her small hand. It felt very warm and soft and she felt a sense of warmth in her heart…
She shifted her gaze awkwardly. “Oh.”
After that, she lowered her head and continued eating the food in her hand.
The woman’s small face was pinkish under the light of the fire, as she was embarrassed.
Zivon took that to heart too. He had a deep and profound look in his eyes.
Very soon, Winnie’s performance ended. After that, Fiona volunteered, and she stepped forward to perform ballet.
She danced gracefully and her movements were very skillful as she danced on the grass under the lights. She looked like a beautiful and graceful swan that was pleasing to the eye.
Everyone was all amazed by her.
“Wow! Miss Squire, you danced so well!”
“I wouldn’t have expected that Miss Squire would not only have medical skills, but she can actually dance so well too. She is really capable and gentle. She is the perfect woman.”
“I feel as if I was watching a world ballet tour. If Miss Squire participates in the competition, she will definitely win the championship.”
“It would be a man’s greatest blessing to be able to marry a woman who can sing and dance so well, but is also a public doctor.”
The compliments and praises were incessant.
Fiona had a very grateful expression on her face, and she felt very smug and satisfied in her heart. However, on the surface, she was very modest as she said, “Everyone is flattering me too much. I can’t dance ballet as well as Miss Lockhart. Miss Lockhart also won the championship once.”
“In fact, I have not seen Miss Lockhart performing ballet in a long time. So, I’d like to ask for her guidance too. Miss Lockhart, you won’t mind performing for us, will you?”
What sounded like a polite and modest statement, was clearly a challenge!
Fiona wanted to compete with Jenna to see who danced better.
Xavia’s face tensed up.
Ballet…So, it turned out that the trap was here. They already planned this in advance?
Charles and several others were stunned.
If there was really something fishy about this woman, shouldn’t she be feeling faint-hearted now? Why did she agree so easily?
As the only person who knew the truth at the scene, Zivon was also slightly surprised.
He had read through Xavia’s information. She was a high school dropout, handyman, dishwasher, salesman, takeaway delivery man. She had engaged in almost every industry that poor people engaged in. How can someone like her possibly know how to dance ballet?
But if he were to help her at this time, when the truth was revealed in future, would he get pulled into this matter, and would people say that he had been ‘helping’ her to cover things up?
Just as everyone was still curious and hesitant, Xavia, who was sitting in her seat, stood up.
She had a straight posture and she had a firm and determined look in her eyes. She wasn’t timid at all.
She was just about to step out—a man’s big hand suddenly fell on her wrist and pulled her.
Xavia lowered her eyes, and she saw Zivon’s cold, handsome, chiseled and extraordinarily charming face.
