Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband
Chapter 1508 - Chapter 1508 Chapter 1508 Sorry Im Late

Chapter 1508: Chapter 1508: Sorry, I’m Late Chapter 1508: Chapter 1508: Sorry, I’m Late Jacob Powell grew angrier as he heard everyone’s gossip. Quinn had already been explaining things on Xaviera’s behalf, but Xaviera neither showed any gratitude nor even accused Quinn of stealing her fragrance formula.

He knew that Quinn was a thoughtful person who had always felt guilty towards Xaviera and had tried to defend her. But why did Xaviera still refuse to let go of Quinn?

Quinn’s eyes were filled with tears, looking pitifully at her brother. “Brother, you must believe in Anna! She would never…”

Jacob felt heartache, remembering how five years ago, Anna had tried to please Xaviera at every turn in order to stay in this family. She had already been humbled to the dust.

At first, when the two of them had conflicts, he chose to believe in Xaviera. However, he later discovered that something was wrong. No matter what Xaviera said, Quinn never argued back. She would always hide away and cry by herself. He only found out after a thorough investigation that Xaviera had intentionally framed Quinn. And even though Quinn had been wronged, she endured it and never said a word, only crying in the dead of night.

Jacob’s heart ached. Anna had suffered so much humiliation back then, he couldn’t let it happen again.

“Quinn, don’t cry anymore. Focus on the competition. The organizers are still investigating Cynthia’s case. I believe it won’t be long before there is a result. You shouldn’t interfere anymore.”

“I… I owe Anna so much. I want to help her…”

“Quinn!” Jacob’s patience was wearing thin, and his voice grew louder. “You’ve always tried to help her, yet she’s always trying to make things difficult for you! Don’t get involved in this anymore. The competition is more important.”

Quinn obediently nodded, wiped her tears, and followed Linda Campbell onto the stage.

Madam Powell watched Quinn’s retreating figure, her heart aching. Then she gritted her teeth and said, “Xaviera really is a jinx. She hasn’t even officially returned to the Powell family yet and she’s already causing chaos. First, seducing the judges, then bullying Quinn and slandering her for stealing the fragrance formula. That little bitch has used all her dirty tricks on us!”

Seeing Quinn’s forbearance and grievance, everyone in the Powell family had grown disgusted with Xaviera. Even Robert, who felt guilty, was increasingly disappointed.

If they were really going to bring Xaviera back to Yittaland, they couldn’t let her go out often. Once people found out she was Cynthia, the one who seduced the judge, the Powell family would lose face!

Before long, the competition started. The contestants took the stage according to their assigned numbers, and the host announced: “Please draw lots to determine the fragrance station you’ll be using for the competition. Let’s start with the number one contestant.”

Linda whispered in Quinn’s ear, “At this point, Cynthia won’t show up. She thought she could seduce the judges and make it to the finals, but it all came out in the end, even getting photographed. What a joke!”

Quinn shook her head helplessly. “I offered to help her when Anna was competing, but she rejected me and turned to this method to win first place. It’s still my fault. If I had been more persistent back then…”

“Quinn, you’re just too kind-hearted. People like her shouldn’t even participate in this competition. Now she’s been reported by me and had to quit the competition. Don’t you think the air is fresher? She’s just a bitch, and there’s a tempting smell of a temptress all over her!”

Linda’s words were vulgar and filled with undisguised jealousy. “She relies on her pretty face and seduces men everywhere. Who knows how many men have slept with her. Pathetic!”

Quinn gently tugged at the corner of Linda’s clothes, whispered: “Lilith, don’t say that.”

The host spoke again. “The drawing is over. Contestants, please head to the fragrance stations according to the order you’ve drawn. In a moment, we will–”

Before the host could finish, the competition venue’s door suddenly burst open, and a cold, feminine voice came from outside. “I’m sorry! I’m late!”

Everyone turned to look and saw a slender figure slowly walking in from the entrance. She was dressed in a dark blue long dress, with a slender figure. Her black and shiny long hair casually fell, her skin was as fair as jade, her nose was delicate and exquisite, and her eyes were curved as she looked at everyone. She had the cuteness of a young girl and the allure of a woman.

There was a brief silence in the room before Linda was the first to react, pointing at Xaviera and shouting, “Cynthia! You have the nerve to show up for the competition!”

Cynthia? This is Cynthia?

Everyone suddenly realized in an instant. So she was the perfumer who seduced the judges and got disqualified from the competition! How could she still have the nerve to participate after doing such a shameful thing?

Xaviera’s cold gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Linda.

Linda… A surname like Anna’s?

Were Anna Campbell and Linda Campbell related? Or were the Campbell family merely Quinn’s pawns?
