Chapter 1466: Chapter 1466: They’ve Already Lost Their Bottom Line Chapter 1466: Chapter 1466: They’ve Already Lost Their Bottom Line “Miss Hamer?” Mrs. Wenzel suddenly remembered that the Hamer family was also a wealthy family and generations of perfume makers. They were one of the sponsors of this Fragrance Competition and one of the eight permanent judges. The influence of the Hamer family in the Fragrance Competition could not be underestimated. As a result, her tone softened: “Miss Hamer, please speak your mind.”
Irene Hamer nodded and spoke solemnly: “Xaviera and I grew up together, and her perfume-making skills have been recognized by the entire Hamer family. So when she was suddenly eliminated, I felt something was wrong. After a private investigation, I found an issue.”
She paused, her cold gaze swept over Quinn Powell, then continued: “Xaviera’s opponent registered for the competition but didn’t submit her work. According to the competition rules, those who don’t submit their works are considered to have given up automatically, and the decision should have been to advance Xaviera. However, in the end, Xaviera was the one eliminated.”
“Mr. Powell, do you think there’s something wrong with this situation?”
Jacob Powell frowned. Why did Irene Hamer always target him? It wasn’t his doing that Xaviera was eliminated? Why ask him?
Before Jacob Powell could speak, Mrs. Wenzel next to him asked with a gloomy face: “Miss Hamer, are you sure the opponent didn’t submit their work but advanced instead?”
Irene Hamer nodded without hesitation.
Mrs. Wenzel’s face darkened further, but she didn’t see that Quinn Powell trembled fearfully and guiltily lowered her eyes.
Irene Hamer continued: “Madam Wenzel, our Hamer family is also a sponsor of the Fragrance Competition, and this incident would have a negative impact on the competition. Hence, I have sent someone to investigate, and the results will be out soon. Although we have already obtained evidence, the identity of the other party is rather special, so it is not convenient to mention it now.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wenzel scolded: “If someone really violated the rules of the Fragrance Competition, no matter who they are, I will not condone it! Miss Hamer, please tell me the name of that person and the bribed judges!”
Irene Hamer looked at Jacob Powell with a mocking expression and raised her eyebrows: “Mr. Powell, do you think I should tell Mrs. Wenzel?”
Everyone in the Powell family was stunned for a moment. Jacob couldn’t understand why Irene Hamer kept talking about him. What did this have to do with him?
“Miss Hamer, what is your intention?” Jacob’s face darkened, and his gentle expression rarely showed anger.
Jacob Powell believed that he had excellent manners and was unwilling to argue with a woman like Irene Hamer. But how could the Fragrance Competition lead to him?
The atmosphere became tense and stagnant. After a moment of silence, Caleb Mamet broke the silence with a low and hoarse voice: “Since Mr. Powell doesn’t understand, Miss Hamer, just speak your mind. There’s no need to be cautious.”
Irene Hamer replied, then smiled and said: “Alright! I initially wanted to save face for Mr. Powell for Xaviera’s sake, but now it seems unnecessary. I knew Mr. Powell and Mr. Powell were partial to their foster daughter, but I didn’t expect you to be so unprincipled just for a foster daughter.”
Quinn Powell clenched her teeth, feeling anxious and confused. She thought that after Xaviera’s elimination, everything would be calm. But she didn’t expect Xaviera to have an Irene Hamer by her side, and it wasn’t difficult for the Hamer family to investigate this matter with their high status in the Fragrance Competition.
She kept reminding herself to stay calm and not expose any flaws!
At this point, Jacob’s face was gloomy. In his opinion, Xaviera’s elimination was due to her own incompetence, but she actually suspected her opponent of cheating. This was clearly a sore loser!
Jacob Powell tried his best to suppress his emotions. After all, Xaviera was his sister. He couldn’t rebuke her in public, so he could only vent his anger on Irene Hamer. He shouted angrily: “Miss Hamer, I know you’re unhappy with me because of the room incident. I was wrong not to consider Xaviera’s feelings. But this Fragrance Competition–”
Before he finished speaking, Irene Hamer took out her phone and played a recording.
—-Person in charge: ‘Miss Hamer, we found that Miss Evans’ opponent did not submit her work and should have been eliminated in the preliminary round. But not only did she enter the competition, she also eliminated Miss Evans. I have sent someone to investigate this matter, and I believe there will be results soon.’
—-Irene Hamer: ‘So according to the competition rules, Xaviera should have advanced, but the opponent manipulated the situation, resulting in Xaviera’s elimination.’
—-Person in charge: ‘Yes… yes.’
—-Irene Hamer: ‘Find out who Xaviera’s opponent is. I have reason to suspect her of bribing the judges.’
