Chapter 1488: Chapter 1488: Such Bad Luck Chapter 1488: Chapter 1488: Such Bad Luck “Jacob is competent and shouldn’t have offended anyone. It must be a misunderstanding,” Robert Powell muttered to himself.
Madam Powell thought carefully. She knew Jacob and Quinn were both mild-mannered, and Quinn was often ill and seldom went out, so it was even less likely that they would offend anyone.
After pondering, Madam Powell suddenly thought of someone. Xaviera Evans had lived in Libanan for many years, and she was arrogant and domineering. It was certain that she had offended people. Perhaps the owner of Fragrant House knew their relationship with Xaviera and refused to let them in because of that.
Madam Powell’s eyes turned cold, “Robert, could it be that Xaviera offended someone?”
As soon as Robert heard Xaviera’s name, he immediately retorted, “Impossible! Xaviera… how could Xaviera…”
Madam Powell snorted coldly in displeasure, “You’ve only been in Libanan for a short time, but Xaviera has been living here for twenty years. Besides, Jacob and Quinn are well-behaved and sensible. They wouldn’t make trouble in Libanan, nor would they tarnish the Powell family’s reputation. It must be that little bitch…”
She clenched her teeth with hatred, “Her personality is flamboyant. It’s not surprising that she offends people in Libanan. I’ve always said she’s a jinx, and now she’s even implicated us in not being able to enter Fragrant House. I already warned you not to bring her back to the Powell family. In such a short time, such a thing has already happened!”
Robert hung his head, unable to defend himself, “It can’t be Xaviera…”
“Why not? We don’t even know the owner of Fragrant House. On the other hand, Xaviera has lived in Libanan for so many years. She must have eaten a meal at Fragrant House!” Madam Powell’s voice was sharp, her expression sinister, “Your daughter hasn’t even formally returned to the Powell family, and she’s already causing us embarrassment. Who knows what will happen when she actually comes back to our family!”
Madam Swift was furious. People around them overheard her words and recognized that they were nobles of Yittaland. It seemed that Miss Evans had not grown up beside Mr. Powell, and they had only just acknowledged each other. If it was precisely because of this daughter that Mr. Powell and Madam Powell were driven out of Fragrant House, it would indeed be very anger-inducing.
At this moment, Madam Powell didn’t care about appearances and angrily said, “She had already caused Quinn to be wronged before, and now she’s causing us embarrassment again. She’s brought trouble to us even before entering our family, and everyone knows the owner of Fragrant House is a respected figure. She has offended such a person and is a jinx. Whoever is associated with her is doomed!”
Robert hung his head, listening to the old lady scolding Xaviera, feeling somewhat uncomfortable. But they had just arrived in Libanan and indeed did not know the owner of Fragrant House. Only Xaviera probably did. Could it really be her?
Seeing the situation, Robert could only comfort her softly, “Mother, don’t be so angry and harm your health. After all, Xaviera lacks discipline. When she returns to the Powell family, I will educate her well.”
Madam Powell’s face was twisted with fury, her eyes full of malice, “You little bitch! If I see her, I will definitely–”
Suddenly, Madam Powell’s voice stopped abruptly. She stared intently at Xaviera as she got out of the car, and Caleb Mamet gracefully opened the car door for her, affectionately holding her hand and giving her a gentle smile.
In an instant, Madam Powell’s fury surged!
“Xaviera Evans!”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the two at the door, and when they saw the man’s handsome face, they all trembled. Before they could react, Madam Powell pointed at Xaviera, her eyes wide with anger, and roared, “Get over here!”
Xaviera was stunned. How unlucky! It’s already been so long, why are the Powell family still here?
Caleb’s gentle expression instantly turned cold and emanated an air of dominance with a hint of chill, “Mr. Powell, what do you mean by this?”
Robert looked at Xaviera, then at the young man standing at the door to greet the guests. The man didn’t seem to have any intention of driving Xaviera away. He paused for a few seconds and asked with furrowed brows, “Xaviera, did you offend…?”
“Who else could it be? What kind of person are you to speak to my son like that?” Madam Powell pointed at Caleb, her tone haughty. Then she glared at Xaviera with hatred in her strained eyes and yelled, “Xaviera! Come here! Don’t you know how to greet your elders? What a lack of manners!”
“Who are you?” Xaviera asked nonchalantly.
Seeing her indifferent appearance, Madam Powell’s anger soared. She stared at Xaviera furiously and gritted her teeth, “You little dead girl, stop pretending! How could you not know who I am?”
