Chapter 1523 - Chapter 1523 Chapter 1523 Will Not Agree to this Unreasonable

Chapter 1523: Chapter 1523: Will Not Agree to this Unreasonable Request Chapter 1523: Chapter 1523: Will Not Agree to this Unreasonable Request “The reason Quinn denied your evidence was also because Linda influenced her; she treated you like her blood sister and didn’t want to see you go astray. She wanted you to realize your mistake and correct it, and now that she knows it was a misunderstanding, she feels guilty and has been scolded by so many people…”

Jacob Powell’s voice carried a hint of pleading: “Quinn has already apologized to you in public, and she has paid the price. Regardless, she is still your sister. Please don’t reveal her name online, okay?”

He had thought about it for a long time. The names of Quinn and Linda couldn’t be put online because everyone knew that Linda was Quinn’s good friend. If Linda were revealed as the whistleblower, netizens would undoubtedly become suspicious. So he came up with a solution: to clarify online that Xaviera was wronged without revealing the names of the people behind the scenes. This would not affect Quinn.

Xaviera couldn’t help but roll her eyes and scoff: “So, Mr. Powell means that even though I’ve proven my innocence, I cannot reveal the names of those who slandered me online. All it takes is an official announcement from the fragrance competition to clear things up, is that right?”

Jacob Powell nodded, his throat a little dry.

“Mr. Powell,” Xaviera’s voice was cold: “Quinn and Linda framed me together, leading everyone to believe that I seduced the judges and cheated. If we don’t clear up the situation and just hastily publish an announcement, what will netizens think of me?”

“They will probably think that I seduced other men or used power and threats to regain my qualification in the competition. I am the real victim here. What’s wrong with me proving my innocence? Why should I be wronged to protect the perpetrator?”

“Xaviera!” Jacob Powell sounded a little impatient: “What do you want then? Are you trying to ruin Quinn?”

Xaviera scoffed: “I’ve been scolded for so many days, and I can’t even clear my name? In Mr. Powell’s eyes, Quinn can’t be wronged. Even if she frames someone, she shouldn’t pay the price, while I’m asking for trouble by being wronged. Even when I’ve proven my innocence, I shouldn’t clear it up online. Don’t you think you’re too biased?”

Jacob Powell’s face changed, and his legs grew weak. Unconsciously, he took a few steps back.

He…he wasn’t biased; he didn’t mean to hurt Xaviera!

“Big Sister Xaviera, my brother is just saying this because of me. If you want to blame someone, blame me!” Quinn Powell’s face was still streaked with tears. She looked at Xaviera with a mix of fear and guilt. “Actually, my brother isn’t showing favoritism towards me; he’s thinking about the Powell family business. We invested a lot of money in the perfume business. If my image is damaged, our family will lose a lot of money.”

“Sister, I…I beg you, please don’t put my name online. You can punish me however you like…”

“If your image is damaged, the Powell family will lose money?” Xaviera asked back before snorting coldly: “Miss Powell, what does the Powell family’s loss have to do with me? The Powell family is protecting the perpetrator and forcing me, the victim, to compromise just so they can save face for the mastermind. I can’t accept such an unreasonable request. No one with a brain would agree to it!”

Robert Powell and Jacob Powell had complex expressions in their eyes.

Yes! It is indeed difficult for Xaviera to accept, but…

Quinn Powell looked anxious and pleaded, “Big Sister Xaviera, you can hate me, but for the sake of my father and brother, how could you…”

“Miss Powell, do I need to remind you that I haven’t eaten a meal or spent a penny provided by the Powell family? I have no emotional ties with them. On what basis should I make a sacrifice for the Powell family? Moreover, what right does a foster daughter like you, who has taken my identity, have to persuade me?” Xaviera’s words, one by one, heavily struck Quinn Powell’s heart.

Quinn Powell’s round eyes filled with sadness and fear. Like a frightened rabbit, she took a few steps back, her voice trembling: “Sister, I…I beg you…”

“You bitch! I’ll tear your mouth apart!” Madam Powell roared, shielding Quinn from Xaviera’s stare with a vicious look. “Today, you must agree whether you want to or not! If you dare to make things difficult for Quinn, ruin her reputation, I’ll make sure you end up dead with no intact body left!”

Jacob Powell remembered Madam Powell calling Xaviera a bitch all day and felt dissatisfied. He was about to speak up for Xaviera when he turned to see Quinn, her face full of grievance, tugging on his sleeve.
