Chapter 1267: Chapter 1267: Severing the Mother-Daughter Relationship Chapter 1267: Chapter 1267: Severing the Mother-Daughter Relationship “This Xaviera Evans must have inherited Nidya Hughes’ greedy and selfish nature, ruining the Hughes family’s cooperation for her own selfish desires. If Mr. Heninger found out that the gift he sent was sold by someone, he would be furious. If he blamed the entire Hughes family, they would all suffer together because of her!”

“This Nina Hughes couldn’t have been any good if she raised such a shameless daughter…”

Nina stood in the crowd, her face turning green with anger, gritting her teeth.

Ever since she had acknowledged Xaviera, her life was plagued with misfortune. Anna Campbell left, and she was forced to return to the Hughes family. Xaviera repeatedly embarrassed her in public and made her the laughingstock, yet she had no ability to refute her.

Why should she suffer the cold eyes of others because of Xaviera? Xaviera had been abandoned since childhood and wasn’t raised by her. Why should she be implicated by Xaviera?

Mockery and ridicule filled Nina’s ears, making her wish she could find a crack in the ground to hide in. As the high-and-mighty daughter of the Hughes family, she had never been this humiliated before.

She staggered to her feet, her face twisted with rage as she yelled, “Xaviera! Tell me, where is the ceramic figurine? We can still find it now!”

Xaviera’s cold gaze fell on her, knowing it was about time for her plan to be set in motion.

“I already said, this is the real thing.”

Xaviera’s indifferent tone completely enraged Nina. She felt her cheeks burning, regretting ever allowing Xaviera to be born if she could turn back time.

“We’re at this point, and you’re still lying! How did I give birth to such a disgraceful daughter like you! You lie habitually, act arrogant, and show no respect to your elders. Do you even deserve to enter the Hughes family?”

For some reason, Nina’s heart filled with rage as she couldn’t control her own behavior. She watched herself, unconcerned with her image, screaming, “Xaviera, I warn you, if you can’t produce the real ceramic figurine, I’ll sever our mother-daughter ties! From then on, you won’t be my daughter!”

The room was in an uproar, as everyone couldn’t help but be astonished. Although Xaviera was raised by Nina Hughes, she was still the biological daughter of Nidya Hughes. They had only recognized each other not long ago, but Nidya was already severing ties with her daughter. Wasn’t this too impulsive?

However, when everyone thought about it from Nidya’s perspective, if their own daughter habitually lied and still acted wildly after being exposed, they would wish to deny having such a daughter, too, especially one not raised by their side and lacked deep emotional bonds.

But Nidya chose to confront Xaviera publicly about severing ties rather than discussing it privately, which made everyone feel surprised.

Nidya stared fiercely at Xaviera, her expression sinister as if she was ready to rush over and tear Xaviera apart any second.

Xaviera ignored her, glanced at the smug Zora Hughes, and couldn’t help but chuckle: “Mrs. Hughes, are you sure?”

Her tone was still so nonchalant, making Nidya feel belittled. Without hesitation, she shouted, “I’m sure! I want to sever ties with you. Since I recognized you, what have you done other than embarrass me? Everyone else’s daughter is like a cotton-padded jacket, but you’re my enemy from a past life! From today, you’re no longer my daughter and the Hughes family will sever ties with you!”

Cory Hughes stood silently, watching the scene coldly. Originally, he didn’t want to escalate the situation, but he was angry at Xaviera’s indifferent attitude, so he didn’t stop Nidya.

Madam Hughes, Jonas Hughes, and Zora Hughes, on the other hand, had no intention of intervening. They wished Xaviera would leave the Hughes family immediately, if not vanish from the world.

The room fell silent. After a few seconds of tense stillness, Xaviera finally spoke with a light laugh, “Alright.”

Did Xaviera just agree?

She had been abandoned by her birth mother and banished by the Hughes family, yet she showed no regret or sadness and even appeared honored. Was she beyond redemption? It seemed Nidya was right to sever ties with her.

Cory’s expression was as dark as ink, his facial muscles trembling slightly. He didn’t care whether Xaviera and Nidya severed their relationship or not. All he wanted now was to find the real ceramic figurine.

If Mr. Heninger learned that Xaviera had sold the ceramic figurine he had gifted, he would be furious. At that time, it would be difficult for the Hughes Group to avoid being implicated.

The most important thing now was to find a ceramic figurine from the Heninger family and personally apologize to Mr. Heninger, showing that they had tried their best to make amends. That way, Mr. Heninger would know it wasn’t the Hughes family’s fault, but Xaviera’s greed.

Cory felt apprehensive. If they truly offended the Heninger family, the good days of the Hughes family would come to an end.
