Chapter 1534: Chapter 1534: Advancing by Retreating Chapter 1534: Chapter 1534: Advancing by Retreating “Xaviera, just now, Madam Mamet mentioned that there will be a banquet at the Mamet family’s residence in a few days and invited Quinn to attend. Quinn originally wanted to attend, but probably because she saw you, she was afraid that you would be upset and then refused the invitation,” Jacob Powell said with a furrowed brow.

Madam Mamet naturally understood everything when she heard this.

How much Caleb doted on Xaviera, she could see, and she knew Xaviera too. If Miss Powell hadn’t done something to anger her, she wouldn’t be confrontational with the Powell family members.

Before Madam Mamet could figure it out, Quinn spoke with tears streaming down her face. “Brother, I refused Mrs. Mamet’s invitation not because of Xaviera, but because I was feeling unwell and it is inconvenient for me to attend the banquet. Besides, the Mamet family’s banquet will certainly invite many of Xaviera’s friends, and they definitely don’t want to see me either.”

Nanny Donne looked worried. She knew that the old Madam was very fond of this granddaughter-in-law, but Miss Powell was the life-saver of the old Madam, so it must be difficult for the old Madam to be caught in the middle.

Jacob, seeing his precious sister in tears, felt heartbroken and looked helplessly at Xaviera Evans.

He knew that she had been wronged, but now that Quinn had lost face and was being scolded by netizens, the Powell family had also lost a lot of money due to her mischief. Now, all Quinn wanted to do was attend the Mamet family’s banquet, and she wouldn’t even agree to that?

If Xaviera couldn’t tolerate Quinn even before officially returning to the Powell family, how could Quinn continue living if one day she really went back to live with the Powell family?

Jacob felt very conflicted, but before he could speak, Xaviera Evans curled her lips and said sweetly and softly, with a hint of surprise, “Miss Powell saved my grandmother, so how could I make it difficult for her? I’m not such a petty person!”

Robert Powell’s expression was taut, as he naturally didn’t believe her words.

Seeing this, Xaviera sighed lightly, “Since Mr. Powell and Mr. Powell don’t welcome me, I’ll leave so as not to be disliked.” As she finished speaking, Xaviera turned and left the ward. Caleb’s expression turned cold as he said quietly to Madam Mamet, “Grandma, Xaviera and I will go to your ward first.”

As Caleb turned around, Madam Mamet immediately stood up.

On the side, Quinn’s face turned ashen as she stared intently at Xaviera’s retreating figure. Why didn’t this woman make a scene when she saw that Quinn had become the life-saver of Madam Mamet?

Xaviera took the initiative to leave the ward, which made it seem like the Powell family was making things difficult for Madam Mamet’s granddaughter-in-law!

Nanny Donne stared blankly at the scene unfolding before her, frowning. Madam was here to visit the elderly Madam, so what right did the Powell family have to drive Madam away? Even if Miss Powell was the life-saving benefactor of the old Madam, she should not be so disrespectful to Madam!

Seeing the old Madam stand up, Nanny Donne quickly supported her and gently reminded her, “Madam, let’s go, Mr. Mamet and Madam are waiting outside!”

Quinn felt as if a huge stone was blocking her chest, making it difficult for her to breathe.

She had deliberately pretended to be pitiful in front of the elderly Madam in order to gain sympathy, but she didn’t expect that Xaviera Evans would not only not be angry, but also turn the tables and catch her off guard with her retreat.

If Madam Mamet just left like this, she would have no chance to attend the Mamet family’s banquet, because she had already refused just now.

At this moment, Robert Powell saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly tried to retain them, “Xaviera, you misunderstood, how could we not welcome you?”

Madam Mamet paused her footsteps and slightly turned toward Robert Powell, “Miss Powell was injured while trying to save me, so the Mamet family will bear all the treatment costs. Miss Powell is my life-saver, but Xaviera is my granddaughter-in-law. She will definitely attend the Mamet family’s banquet. If Miss Powell doesn’t want to see Xaviera, then let’s just forget the invitation I mentioned earlier, so Miss Powell doesn’t have to feel distressed.”

Quinn’s face turned instantly pale. She definitely wanted to go to the Mamet family’s banquet, and she only wanted Madam Mamet to think that she didn’t want to go because Xaviera was making things difficult for her!

Madam Mamet’s words had completely blocked her way. How could she ask to attend the banquet now?

“Grandmother,” Xaviera stood outside the ward and said softly, “After all, Miss Powell is your life saver. She naturally should be invited to the banquet. Otherwise, she might regret it later and blame me for causing her not to attend the banquet. It’s no big deal if I don’t go. I’m just Yigol Mamet’s sister-in-law and he won’t care.”

Xaviera’s tone was cold and unhurried, “Miss Powell, don’t worry about me. If you want to go, go. I don’t think you’re exploiting the kindness for your own gains either. After all, you saved my grandmother’s life, and I’m truly grateful for that. I believe that when you saved my grandmother, you did it with all your heart.”
