Chapter 1397 - Chapter 1397 Chapter 1397 Two Setbacks in a Lifetime
Chapter 1397: Chapter 1397: Two Setbacks in a Lifetime Chapter 1397: Chapter 1397: Two Setbacks in a Lifetime Sean Price’s voice gradually turned cold: “Mr. Powell, my wife has not been feeling well lately, so even if we’re going to leave, we have to wait until she recovers.”
During this time, Xaviera Evans has been pretending to be sick and not attending any banquet or event in Libanan, intending to lure those with ulterior motives. She just didn’t expect that she would suddenly regain her memory and already knew that the person who took her blood back then was Jacob Powell.
Robert Powell immediately became anxious, “Xaviera, are you sick? Where do you feel unwell? Then I… I’ll leave first. You think it over. If you go to Romulan City, you can recuperate with Quinn at the mansion, and you can also…”
“Mr. Powell.” Sean Price interrupted him, slightly bent over, and asked him to leave.
Robert Powell frowned, looking unhappy. Just now, when he heard that Xaviera was sick, his mood became somewhat complicated – worried, but also mixed with a hint of impatience, “Alright, I’ll come back later.”
Watching Robert Powell’s retreating figure, Sean Price’s eyes showed a trace of complexity, while Steve Price’s face was full of disgust.
Xaviera laughed lightly: “My father is quite interesting.”
Sean Price was puzzled: “Madam, he and Jacob Powell have quite different personalities.”
Robert Powell has been smooth sailing since he was a child and has never encountered any difficulties or setbacks. He can get whatever he wants easily, so his character is domineering, yet naive due to his lack of experience. This combination of traits was rather strange.
Xaviera snorted coldly, she had no intention of going to Yittaland, after all, Yittaland is Jacob Powell’s territory. Jacob Powell appears gentle, refined, yet his thoughts are meticulous and has great tact. Maybe he has secretly cultivated his own power over these years. There was no need for her to go to Yittaland to take risks.
Her goal was to take revenge on Jacob Powell, but she didn’t necessarily have to go to Yittaland. She could let Jacob Powell come to Libanan instead. She wouldn’t be so impulsive to go to enemy territory for revenge.
“Caleb.” Xaviera suddenly looked up at Caleb Mamet.
“What’s wrong?” Caleb’s voice was gentle.
“Can you help me with something?” Xaviera’s voice was a bit tense.
Sean Price and Steve Price stood in place, watching their delicate wife hold the president’s hand and go upstairs.
On the other side, Robert Powell left the Lowen Clubhouse with a heavy heart. He didn’t understand why Xaviera refused him. Reuniting with her family was such a happy thing, so why would she be unwilling?
Yittaland might be unfamiliar to her, but her relatives were there. What could be more important than family?
Thinking it through, Robert suddenly recalled the words of the butler, Jimmy. Could it be that Xaviera was concerned about Quinn’s existence? Xaviera knew there was a favored adopted daughter at home and was afraid she wouldn’t receive enough attention in Yittaland, so she was reluctant to agree?
But Quinn was just an adopted daughter, while Xaviera was his biological daughter. No matter whether Quinn existed or not, he would not treat Xaviera unfairly.
Robert Powell’s life has been incredibly smooth, with only two setbacks – one was Nina Hughes, and the other was Xaviera Evans.
As the car slowly stopped in front of the Lowen Clubhouse, Robert Powell was about to get in when another car stopped nearby. Robert couldn’t help but look over.
Wayne Reiser hesitated for a moment – the Lowen Clubhouse was Caleb Mamet’s private residence, and very few people visited. It seemed that this person was an important guest of Caleb’s.
Wayne Reiser and Fiona Reiser got out of the car, thought for a moment, and as Caleb Mamet’s mentor and a well-known philanthropist in Libanan, seeing Caleb’s guest meant he should definitely go forward and greet them.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Wayne Reiser approached the person, and when he saw the individual’s face clearly, his body suddenly stiffened.
Robert Powell?
He had come to Libanan. So he and Xaviera Evans had recognized each other. Did that mean Jacob Powell also knew about this?
Wayne Reiser was momentarily stunned, and a gentle smile appeared on his face as he greeted, “Mr. Powell.”
Robert Powell, full of annoyance, didn’t want to pay attention to those around him, but since the other party took the initiative to greet him, he had to turn around politely, “You know me?”
Wayne Reiser smiled, of course he knew – he was Jacob Powell’s father!
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Powell. I am Wayne Reiser, chairman of the Reiser Group. Two years ago, I saw you and Mr. Jacob Powell from a distance at an event in Yittaland.”
“Hmm.” Robert Powell was still thinking about how to persuade Xaviera to go home with him, so he just nodded perfunctorily.
Wayne Reiser looked at Robert Powell and then at the entrance of the villa, asking meaningfully, “Mr. Powell, do you know Caleb? I haven’t heard Caleb mention you.”
As soon as Caleb Mamet was mentioned, Robert Powell frowned. If it weren’t for this man, Xaviera might have followed him home.
