Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband -
Chapter 1394 - Chapter 1394 Chapter 1394 The Whole World Has Collapsed
Chapter 1394: Chapter 1394: The Whole World Has Collapsed Chapter 1394: Chapter 1394: The Whole World Has Collapsed In Robert Powell’s understanding, once someone rejects him, he feels disrespected, even betrayed.
Xaviera Evans wasn’t sure if Robert knew about the past, but seeing him in person now, she was certain he didn’t. A person of his character could hardly conceal himself; if he knew, he would emphasize point-blank: Xaviera, your brother has admitted his mistake, let’s forget about the past.
After a brief silence, Xaviera spoke softly, “Mr. Powell, this is the first time I’m meeting you and you claim to be my father. How about we have a paternity test first?”
Robert stood motionless, seemingly stunned. Then his eyes filled with sadness, “Xaviera, I am certain that you are my daughter. There is no need for a paternity test.”
“Since you’re so sure, we won’t have one. But I’ve lived in Libanan since I was little, and I’m not going to Yittaland.”
“What? Xaviera, you’re not going to Yittaland?” Robert looked shockingly at her.
Why would she stay in Libanan rather than return home with him to a life of luxury?
Robert was extremely excited before the meeting. It never occurred to him that Xaviera would reject him. He stood, dazed, as if a bucket of cold water just fell over him.
“Mr. Powell, I’m sorry, I can’t go with you.”
Robert slightly moved his lips, not knowing what to say. He is Xaviera’s birth father, who traveled a long way to take her home. Why is she refusing him?
Just because Xaviera rejected him, Robert felt as though his world was about to collapse.
Appearing a bit impatient, Robert said, “Xaviera, I’m your father, our home is in Yittaland. I came here to take you home. Whatever you want, I’ll satisfy you.”
Xaviera took a quick glance at Robert — the man was as the information had described, headstrong, inconsiderate, even childlike. She couldn’t believe her mother would fall for such a man.
But if Robert said he could satisfy whatever she wanted, what if she desired the lives of Jacob Powell and Quinn Powell?
With a cold laugh in her heart, Xaviera replied indifferently, “Mr. Powell, I’ve been living in Libanan for twenty years. I don’t want to go to a strange environment. Besides, my job is here and so is my husband. I’m not leaving.”
Robert stiffened, looking extremely uncomfortable and his eyes filled with sadness and shock, “Xaviera, I came a long way to take you home, how could you…”
Steve Price at the door was left speechless. Did Robert really think that just because he came to get her, his wife would just go with him? What was he dreaming of?
Robert lowered his head, thinking for a moment, his eyes desperate as he looked at her, “Xaviera, it’s okay. You like being a teacher, I can arrange a job for you in a university in Yittaland, the treatment will not be worse than at Libanan University.”
“As for your company in Libanan, it doesn’t really matter if you leave it behind. If you really don’t want to abandon it, you can have some trustworthy people manage it temporarily. You’re just a girl, you should be like Quinn, shopping around and watching movies. We’re not short of money at home, why burden yourself?”
Steve Price: “…” He really wanted to drive Robert out!
Xaviera gave a light smile, “Mr. Powell, one man’s meat is another man’s poison. I’m not fond of such a life. Work is important to me.”
Robert’s eyebrows tightened, he was on the verge of collapse.
He really couldn’t understand, why did Xaviera refuse to leave with him? Libanan didn’t have anything good. She could have everything she wanted if she returned home with him. How could she bear to reject him?
Right! She has a husband! It must be because of that man.
After much contemplation, Robert could only come to this conclusion. He calmed down and softly tried to persuade, “Xaviera, you don’t want to go because of your husband, right? That’s okay. You can bring him with you to Yittaland. I will arrange his work as well. Even if neither of you work, my family can still support you.”
Steve Price: “…”
Sean Price: “…”
Were they mistaken? Offering to arrange work for their CEO? To support their CEO?
Xaviera also seemed speechless, chuckling lightly, “Mr. Powell, didn’t you do your research before coming? My husband is Caleb Mamet.”
Of course, Robert knew that Xaviera’s husband was Caleb Mamet, the richest man in Libanan. But what did that matter?
At this moment, Sean Price couldn’t resist jumping in, “Mr. Powell, our CEO has created a tremendous business empire in Libanan. There is no way he can abandon everything here to return to Yittaland with you. Mrs. Mamet also does not want to leave the CEO. We hope you can understand.”
