When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 960: Up to Something Again

"Mother, look at Gia. What does she look like?" Rhiannon Xavier teased, leaning close to the middle-aged woman’s ear and whispering, "Anyone who didn’t know better would think she’s my brother’s girlfriend."

When Mrs. Xavier glanced at her son, Nathan might have realized something and just then withdrew his fingers from Gia’s shoulder.

But Mrs. Xavier had already seen the scene, her eyes filled with a smile of satisfaction.

"What do you think, wouldn’t it be nice for Gia to be your sister-in-law?" Mrs. Xavier softly replied to her daughter, "Doesn’t it seem more and more fitting?"

"Father, Mother." Nathan Xavier spoke warmly, interrupting Rhiannon’s thoughts.

"Hello, Uncle Xavier. Hello, Auntie Xavier." Adrian Lancaster also greeted them politely, bowing respectfully.

Gia also naturally greeted the two, and when the Xavier Elders looked at her, their eyes were full of affection.

Even when the Lancaster Elders looked at her, they liked her very much. She was no mere companion; one could easily guess she was the future daughter-in-law of the Xavier Family.

The Xavier Family was quite fortunate. This girl gave off the same feeling as Faye did back then—gentle, beautiful, kind, and generous.

"Gia, you look so beautiful today." Mrs. Xavier couldn’t help but step forward, reaching out to touch her earrings, whispering praise, "You’re sparkling from head to toe."

Just like that, Adrian Lancaster’s plan to privately meet with Gia was interrupted by the sudden arrival of the Xavier Elders.

Everyone exchanged pleasantries and chatted as they walked towards the old master to celebrate his birthday... Along the way, they would meet some friends and exchange greetings.

So Adrian Lancaster had even less of a chance to say anything to Gia...

The guests had mostly arrived, and the music performed live by the musicians had a sense of nostalgia and was especially festive.

Afraid that someone might take an interest in the person he liked, Nathan Xavier paid a lot of attention to Gia, almost never leaving her side.

Just like Gia, he could also feel President Lancaster’s occasional glances in their direction.

Rhiannon Xavier looked beautiful tonight too, but she seemed to be overshadowed, without her brother’s halo, she appeared dim and almost unnoticed.

Her father and mother knew quite a few business partners, and everyone would greet each other and exchange toasts when they met; she couldn’t accompany them all the time.

So, she seemed a bit lonely... growing increasingly jealous of Gia, who had her brother’s company.

However, very scheming in nature, she quickly noticed the peculiarity between Adrian Lancaster, Gia, and her brother.

Could it be that President Lancaster... also liked Gia?

This was utterly absurd! Why should he?

So, Rhiannon slightly turned her head and took steps toward Adrian Lancaster.

"President Lancaster." Her voice was sweet and soft, filled with confidence. "It’s our first meeting, and there were too many people just now, so I didn’t introduce myself. Hello, I’m Rhiannon Xavier, Nathan Xavier’s sister." She extended her hand as she spoke.

Hearing she was Nathan Xavier’s sister, Adrian Lancaster looked at the girl he had no initial feelings for a few more times.

So, she should also be familiar with Gia, right?

Thus, President Lancaster’s lips curved slightly, and he spoke with his thin lips, "Hello, Miss Xavier," extending his hand.

Shaking hands with President Lancaster of the Prestige Group!

Rhiannon Xavier couldn’t have been happier; such an event was something she could boast about for a lifetime!

Her smile grew sweeter, her eyes filled with affection as she looked at him. She had heard President Lancaster was widowed?

If she couldn’t marry Nathan Xavier, then President Lancaster was a great second choice!

She must marry into a wealthy family at all costs!

In just a few seconds, she dreamt a dream—a grand, grand daydream.

Adrian Lancaster was very perceptive. As he released her hand, he had already gleaned a bit about Miss Xavier’s character from that brief interaction.
