Xaviera Evans slightly lifted her eyes, her stunning face veiled in shadow. She took a sip of fruit wine, her lips glossed with the sparkling liquid, adding an extra allure to her charism.
Yet Nidya Hughes didn't find Xaviera stunning at all. Instead, she spoke grimly, "Still as impolite as ever. You don't even know how to greet when you see me."
