If I’m not an outsider, why should I live in the guest room on the third floor? When Miss Powell arranged for me to stay in the guest room, isn’t she treating me as a guest? Since Miss Powell doesn’t consider me a family member, why should I consider her one? Is there a problem with me addressing her as Miss Powell?”
The living room was silent as Quinn Powell nervously pursed her lips.
“Xaviera, the rooms on the second floor are all…” Jacob Powell hastily began to explain, only to be interrupted by a wave of Xaviera’s hand.
“In the Powell family, there are only two masters–my father and brother. There are three rooms on the second floor, so there should be one left.” Xaviera asked calmly, “Is Father’s invitation for me to come home not genuine? He didn’t even arrange a room for me?”
Quinn’s heart skipped a beat. So that’s why! Xaviera wasn’t picking a fight with her–she was trying to take her room!
Robert Powell hesitated, looking troubled. Quinn had already taken the remaining room. Surely, they couldn’t ask her to move out.
Jacob, seeing this, began to explain, “Xaviera, the room on the second floor is occupied by Quinn because she is delicate and often unwell. The room is spacious and well-ventilated. I hope you understand.”
Quinn proud looked from the corner of her eyes. With her brother’s protection, Xaviera had no chance of taking her room!
Xaviera ignored Jacob and turned to Robert, “Alright, it doesn’t matter since I’m married and will be staying most of the time at the Lowen Clubhouse. I’ll only be here a few days so the guest room is fine.”
Then, Caleb Mamet spoke gently, “Xaviera, don’t be upset. The Lowen Clubhouse is your real home. If they treat you as a guest, then you shouldn’t consider them family.”
Irene Hamer added sarcastically, “Mr. Powell, you indeed kept your word, making a clear distinction between the adopted daughter and the biological daughter. It’s just unfortunate that you treat Quinn, your adopted daughter generously, while treating Xaviera, your biological daughter, as a guest.”
“Xaviera, you were an outsider from your childhood. Naturally, you can’t compete with Quinn who has spent more than a decade with them. Blood ties don’t seem that important after all. Even if you don’t visit the Hamer family often, we have prepared a room for you. Yet the Powell family, nobles of Yittaland, can’t afford to arrange a room for you. This is a clear sign of their attitude! They are living happily as a family. You shouldn’t interfere lest you become a laughing stock.”
Throughout the whole conversation, Xaviera maintained a calm expression. She lightly responded, “Irene is right. Indeed, I am just a guest. I am well-aware of my position, so Miss Powell can do as she pleases with the arrangements.”
Robert sucked in a sharp breath, subconsciously glancing towards Quinn. His eyes were filled with difficulty.
Quinn’s face was pale, her heart full of resentment. Robert was simply too easily swayed. If anyone complained, he would yield to their demands. But she’d been living in the Powell family for over a decade–why should she yield to Xaviera?
Jacob frowned discontentedly, “Xaviera, when we moved in, Quinn wanted to leave the second-floor room for you. But she’s not well, and the second-floor room is spacious and bright, suitable for her recovery. That’s why Father and I arranged for her to stay there. She’s sick. How could you be so petty with her?”
Xaviera blinked, her eyes filled with confusion. “I don’t understand, Mr. Powell. Do you think I’m being petty with Miss Powell? But didn’t I blame her for taking the second-floor room, and didn’t I refuse her offer to stay in the guest room?”
Her beautiful eyes turned to Jacob. “I’ve already agreed. Why are you still unsatisfied, Mr. Powell?”
Jacob was at a loss for words, his eyebrows furrowed, and his body tense. He sighed, helpless, “Xaviera, you might have agreed, but you’re not happy. Quinn was sick from her childhood. Whatever she wanted, Father and I tried our best to fulfill her wishes. But the moment you’re back, you’re refusing to give her any leeway and trying to take her room. It’s just a room. Why can’t you stay somewhere else? Why do you have to compete with Quinn?”
His words lingered in the air, thickening the silence in the room.
After a long time, Xaviera suddenly let out a cold laugh. She gave Jacob a chilling look with her delicate eyes.
“To tell you the truth, I’m unhappy. Anyone would be in this situation. You promised me a clear distinction between me and Quinn. But my first time back home, I have to stay in a guest room while Quinn gets the most spacious and bright room in the main house.”
