Chapter 1340: Chapter 1340: Don’t Get Too Excited Too Early Chapter 1340: Chapter 1340: Don’t Get Too Excited Too Early Mrs. Taylor stepped forward a few steps, and the assistant hurriedly handed her the mobile phone. She hesitated for a few seconds, but eventually took the phone with a gloomy face and held it to her ear.
Xaviera Evans, who was walking towards the door, turned slightly and saw Mrs. Taylor’s face getting darker and darker, but she immediately suppressed her anger and spoke in a pleasing tone: “You’re overthinking it. It’s just a small matter. I’ll handle it well and won’t tarnish the reputation of the Brooke family.”
The person on the other end seemed very dissatisfied, and Mrs. Taylor continued to softly persuade for a while. After hanging up, her anger surged instantly, and she threw the phone hard on the floor.
The people around them shuddered in fright, all lowering their heads without making a sound.
Instead of leaving in a hurry, Xaviera Evans turned her body sideways and smiled at Mrs. Taylor.
Mrs. Taylor’s eyes were cold, “Miss Evans, don’t celebrate too soon. There’s plenty of time, and you’ll never know who the final winner is.”
Xaviera Evans smiled slightly: “Maybe I’m the final winner.”
“Hmph! Good! Then we’ll see!” After saying that, Mrs. Taylor left with the bodyguards in anger, and the screaming Zora Hughes was also taken away.
Xaviera Evans looked coldly at the remaining members of the Hughes family. Cory Hughes and Sebastiane sat on the ground in embarrassment, while Jonas Hughes and Lillian Hughes leaned against each other, their stares blank and their faces full of despair.
She frowned and asked, “Where is Ms. Nelly Apone?”
She then became lost in thought. Nelly Apone must have taken the video and wouldn’t go back to the Hughes family; after all, the hungry wolves in the Hughes family wouldn’t easily let her go.
With a fierce look in his eyes, Cory Hughes watched Xaviera Evans and Caleb Mamet’s departing figures, his heart full of anger and unwillingness. Was the Hughes family completely finished?
He didn’t understand why, despite the Hughes family being only moderately powerful, they had stood for so many years in the upper class. Why had they fallen in just one night?
What was even more incomprehensible to him was that he had joined forces with the Brooke family to deal with Caleb Mamet. Even if Caleb Mamet had made arrangements beforehand, how could he have predicted that the Brooke family would be present? How had he managed to break free from the two family’s interception so quickly?
There was perhaps only one possibility: the Russell family had a hand in it!
Cory Hughes felt a dull pain in his chest and suddenly coughed up blood. So, it was the Russell family…
Years ago, Letitia Russell had lost her grip on power, and now she only enjoyed her peaceful retirement life by drinking coffee and gardening. Therefore, the only one who could help Caleb Mamet was Frederick Russell!
Cory’s chest hurt even more. He even felt ridiculous–ironically, the one who brought the Hughes family down had been his own son, who aided Caleb Mamet and Xaviera Evans in destroying his life’s work.
On the other hand, as soon as Xaviera Evans left the Hughes family, she saw Yigol Mamet and Julian Russell at the door.
Yigol Mamet walked forward quickly and asked anxiously, “Is everything settled? Before you guys came out, that Mrs. Taylor left angrily with Zora Hughes in her car. She even stared at me viciously, scaring my heart to pound like crazy. She looks like a tigress. The assistant seemed to want to say something, but seeing Mr. Russell, he didn’t speak.”
Xaviera Evans couldn’t help but look at Julian Russell.
After a few seconds of silence, Julian Russell asked softly, “Xaviera, do you know that Mrs. Taylor?”
“I just met her today,” Xaviera answered.
Julian Russell pondered for a moment and said, “It seems that Zora Hughes has shot herself in the foot. The Brooke family is quite reputable in Yittaland. Every noble is very protective of their reputation, and they don’t want it destroyed. I guess Mrs. Taylor will be punished by her family when she returns. However, you better be careful since she probably won’t let it go.”
Was that all?
Xaviera Evans pursed her lips, and Julian Russell continued, “Mr. Wesley Taylor is quite notorious, and Mrs. Taylor has also forcefully abducted girls in the past. However, it’s the first time they’ve come to Libanan from Yittaland just to snatch someone. It might be because Mr. Taylor really likes you.”
“Is it just because Wesley Taylor likes me?” Xaviera Evans raised her eyebrows and looked disgusted. It was really bad luck to be liked by such a man.
Julian Russell replied, “It’s still unclear for now. However, offending the Brooke family is not a good thing. You should still be cautious.”
Xaviera Evans made a sound of agreement and wrinkled her eyebrows slightly. The Brooke family had no connection to Caleb Mamet and her. They had only just met for the first time, so they shouldn’t have any past grudges. So, was it really just because Mr. Taylor liked her?
