Chapter 1558 - Chapter 1558 Chapter 1558 You Must Make a Choice

Chapter 1558: Chapter 1558: You Must Make a Choice Chapter 1558: Chapter 1558: You Must Make a Choice “Does Jayden Woods have any dealings with Jacob Powell? The Woods family’s business is on the rise, wouldn’t they want him to stay away at this point?”

In response, Caleb Mamet gave a faint smile: “Jayden Woods is not impulsive. If he chooses to return at this point, it means he’s confident in rivaling the Powell family. Besides, currently, both Robert Powell and Jacob Powell need Jayden to establish a firm foothold in Libanan.”

Rival?

Xaviera Evans slightly squinted her eyes, was Caleb saying that Jayden Woods and the Powells from Yittaland were not on friendly terms, but enemies instead?

…

At that moment, at the Powell Villa.

The sudden illness of Quinn Powell disrupted the tranquility of the Powell family. She was the jewel in the crown of the Powell family, frail and often ill from childhood. Doctors had predicted her death five years ago, but she had just turned twenty. Her sudden illness came as a shock to everyone.

Yet, before coming to Libanan, Dr. Blue had clearly said that her condition was stable. Why had it suddenly deteriorated?

In a panic, Madam Powell rushed to the bedside, and shrieked, “Quinn! What happened? You were fine before we left for the party. Why did you suddenly fall ill after we returned home from the Mamet’s party? Did something happen there?”

Jacob Powell felt a lump in his throat, and bit his lips without telling Madam Powell about what had happened at the Mamet’s. Everything Quinn had done was for the Powell family. Earlier, Quinn had snapped, due to Xaviera’s refusal to listen, which resulted in the current consequences.

It wasn’t entirely Quinn’s fault. Xaviera was also to blame!

However, his silence was misinterpreted by Madam Powell, and she suddenly burst out in rage: “I don’t need you to tell me! It must have been that little bitch, Xaviera Evans, who bullied Quinn!”

“Quinn saved Madam Mamet, she is the most respected guest at the Mamet family, no one dared to offend her. Only that bitch could bully Quinn! Quinn has always been weak, and yet Xaviera continually upsets her to the point of illness. She is a malicious bitch! If something happens to Quinn, I will not let her go!”

Jacob’s countenance darkened. He wanted to explain, but looking at Quinn’s pale as paper face, he found himself unable to speak.

Madam Powell turned white with rage, and her eyes were filled with viciousness. She roared, “You hear me, that little bitch wouldn’t enter my home unless I were dead!”

Jacob remained silent with his eyebrows furrowed, while Robert Powell hesitated before speaking: “Mom…”

“Robert, I really don’t understand why you insist on bringing that little bitch home. Before she even steps foot in our house, Quinn’s got sick. Quinn is the daughter that has been by your side for over a decade! Even if there is no blood relation, she is still your daughter! If you bring that bitch back, it would be like cutting off Quinn’s lifeline!”

Madam Powell pointed at Robert unsteadily, her voice sharp, “You need to make a choice, is it Xaviera or me and Quinn. Mark my words, if Quinn’s condition doesn’t improve, I’ll make Xaviera pay the price!”

Pay the price?

Robert felt his head was buzzing. Whatever Xaviera had done, she was still his biological daughter. How could he harm her?

Why was it that Quinn, who was usually so obedient, understanding, and considerate, always had conflicts with Xaviera? What exactly had happened this time?

If Quinn’s health was really beyond recovery, or she never woke up, then Xaviera would never have a chance to return to the Powell family, much less return to Yittaland with him.

His only wish these years was to find Nina and his daughter. After he found out about Nina’s death, his only wish was to have his daughter by his side. Now he couldn’t even fulfill this small wish? Was he destined never to reunite with his daughter in this life?

Robert’s eyes filled with sorrow, all of which was caught by Jacob. He understood his father’s thoughts – he didn’t want to give up on Xaviera, who was his biological sister, but since Xaviera had caused Quinn’s illness, given his grandmother’s temper, she would never allow Xaviera to return to the Powell family, unless… Xaviera could restore Quinn’s health.

As long as Xaviera could save Quinn and restore her health, they could offset the blame. Perhaps then, his grandmother might agree to let her come home.

Xaviera was the real daughter of the Powell family and if she saved Quinn, everyone in the Powell family would be grateful to her. However, the problem now was, would Xaviera be willing to donate her blood to Quinn.

Five years ago, she had categorically refused. It was only through manipulation that he had been able to get Xaviera’s blood. By now, it was likely she would refuse again.
