Chapter 1486 - Chapter 1486 Chapter 1486 Shes a Jinx

Chapter 1486: Chapter 1486: She’s a Jinx Chapter 1486: Chapter 1486: She’s a Jinx Jacob Powell had a meticulous mind and inherited a portion of Sir Powell’s business acumen. Under his leadership, the company gradually improved. After Quinn won the perfume blending competition, Jacob invested in a company specializing in perfume for her. Relying on the reputation of the competition champion, the business had been doing well in recent years. This time they invested 4 billion dollars and promoted the company online, aiming to make the Powell family a sensation in the perfume industry and become a leading figure in the world of perfume.

Madam Powell was very pleased and seemed to have already seen the flourishing future of the Powell family.

Over the years, the situation of the Powell family had not been as glamorous as it appeared on the surface. Although they were a noble family in Yittaland, since the death of Sir Powell, the family’s business had declined drastically and no one had taken up the responsibility, leaving them the laughing stock of the upper class. But now everything was different. The Powell family had produced a top perfumer, and after this competition, Quinn’s name would be known throughout the world. The Powell family’s perfume would become a best-selling brand worldwide, and soon the Powell family would become the top aristocratic family in Yittaland, with endless wealth and prestigious status.

Madam Powell’s mouth curved into a gentle smile, “My son, our mother and son’s life depend on Jacob and Quinn now, so you must not let Quinn be wronged!”

Robert Powell smiled and nodded, “Quinn is my daughter, of course, I won’t let her be wronged.”

“But I heard that Quinn gave her room to that little bitch?” Madam Powell’s face darkened, disgusted, and said, “Robert, before you came to Libanan, I was against you acknowledging her as your daughter. Even if she is your biological child, what’s the point? She’s been living outside for so many years, picked up all sorts of bad habits, and doesn’t know the etiquette of the aristocracy. All she does is bring shame to the Powell family. Besides, she even took Quinn’s room! The moment she comes back to the Powell family, the originally harmonious family will be turned upside down. It’s not a good thing!”

Robert frowned with a difficult expression, “Mother, Xaviera is my biological daughter after all. She hasn’t had an easy life in the outside world all these years. I just want to compensate her. Moreover, she’s quite sensible and won’t fight with Quinn over anything. As for the bedroom, it was Quinn who offered it voluntarily, not Xaviera who snatched it.”

“That’s because Quinn is sensible, afraid that you’ll be caught in the middle and feel embarrassed. How come you don’t know how to care for Quinn!” Madam Powell scolded loudly, “Quinn has always been well-behaved and sensitive, always putting others first. She knows you want to compensate Xaviera, so she voluntarily gave up her room. As long as Xaviera is in the Powell family, Quinn will have to live carefully and cautiously!”

Madam Powell glared, “Quinn has a kind heart, knowing only to wrong herself to please others. If you don’t protect her, what will happen to this child! What’s more, Quinn can bring benefits to the Powell family. What can Xaviera do?”

“I’ve already had people investigate Xaviera’s past. She grew up in the Evans family since childhood, but now the Evans family is bankrupt, and Mag Evans even died in a car accident. Later, the Campbell family came to acknowledge her as their family, but after she returned to the Campbell family, Jeremy Campbell and Lillian Hughes divorced, and Anna Campbell disappeared. The Hughes family was also implicated, and everyone related to Xaviera met a tragic end. Xaviera is a jinx. Do you want to watch the Powell family fall to the same fate?”

Robert wanted to speak up and defend Xaviera, but he didn’t know where to start. He had, of course, investigated Xaviera’s past and found that the Evans family had mistreated her, nearly killing her. Seeking revenge against the Evans family was justified. As for Jeremy and Lillian’s divorce, it was due to their emotional discord. How could Xaviera be blamed for that?

He also knew that Lillian had pretended to be Nina’s sister for many years and had done a lot of dirty deeds behind the scenes, framing Xaviera several times. Xaviera’s decision not to retaliate against Lillian was already showing mercy.

If Nina were still alive, knowing that Lillian had almost killed her child, she would definitely not let Lillian off easily.

Robert hadn’t given it much thought at the time, but now that he had heard his mother’s words, a trace of unease arose in his heart.

“Mother, I… I understand.”

Madam Powell frowned unhappily, “You have to remember what I said, don’t be so softhearted. And I heard from Jacob that Xaviera slandered Quinn for stealing her perfume formula. Is that true?”

Robert looked puzzled, “I haven’t heard Xaviera mention it. Xaviera and Quinn have only met twice. How could it have anything to do with the perfume formula? Did Jacob remember it wrong?”

Madam Powell suddenly fell silent. Indeed, it was not Jacob who had said this, but what she had heard from Quinn herself.
