Chapter 520: Chapter 520: Eyes Filled with the Light of Benefits
Xaviera Evans coldly stared at Anna Campbell, âThis room was originally meant for me. If I had actually moved in, even if I didnât get burned to death, I would be disfigured. Then the Campbells would be all yours, Miss Campbell, how cruel and ruthless you are!â
The servants looked on with contempt.
Miss Campbell was too much. Fortunately, Miss Drew didnât move into the basement, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
âIâŠIâŠâ
Seeing Anna Campbell stammering and looking guilty, Mrs. Campbell already understood in her heart.
When Anna arranged the room, she sprinkled flammable powder on the floor and placed many flammable items. If Xaviera had moved in, thenâŠ
No! It canât be! Anna is so gentle and kind, how could she do such a thing?
Even if it really was Anna who did it, it was because Xaviera provoked her first, so it was all Xavieraâs fault!
Xaviera no longer paid attention to them and turned to go upstairs.
âXaviera.â
At this moment, a male voice came from behind.
Xaviera turned around, and Mr. Campbell looked serious, âI heard that you know Elijah Flack. The Flack family will host a banquet tomorrow, and you should attend with us!â
Xaviera appeared calm. Although Mr. Campbell was polite to her, his eyes were full of interest. It didnât matter to him who was his biological daughter; all he cared about was who could bring him more benefits.
She nodded with a smile, âAlright! I do know Elijah Flack. He even introduced a role to me before!â
Upon hearing this, Mr. Campbellâs gloomy face somewhat relaxed. Although he liked Anna more, Xaviera was not entirely useless.
Mr. Campbell: âAlright, prepare yourself and dress up nicely for tomorrow. You are now the Campbell familyâs daughter, and you must not bring disgrace to us at the Flack familyâs banquet.â
âI heard that Mr. Caleb Mamet will also attendâŠâ
As soon as these words came out, the whole room quieted down. ÆreewebÉłovel.com
Mr. Campbell hesitated for a moment, speaking softly, âAdrian plays pranks and jokes with you. Although you donât mind, Mr. Mamet was also in the car that day, so he might have thought that Adrian hired someone to kill him, soâŠâ
âI think you are familiar with Mr. Mamet since you all rode in the same car. Can you say a few good words, have him drop the matter, and forgive your brother?â
Xaviera looked troubled, âOf course I want to save Mr. Campbell, but everyone knows that Mr. Mamet is bad-tempered. At that time, Mr. Campbell sent so many people to chase and kill us, and someone even attacked Mr. Mamet. If it wasnât for Mr. Mametâs assistant who helped us escape, we might not have survived. So, it wonât be easy to persuade him.â
Mr. Campbellâs face was grave, knowing that what Xaviera said was true. He gritted his teeth, âWhy donât you tell Mr. Mamet that as long as he agrees to reconcile, our Campbell family will give him a gift in return, hoping that he can accept our gratitude.â
Xaviera nodded with a smile, âAlright, Iâll talk to Mr. Mamet tomorrow!â
Mr. Campbell let out a sigh of relief, taking out a card from his pocket, âXaviera, this card is for you. Thereâs 200,000 dollars inside. Buy whatever you like, and if itâs not enough, just ask dad for more.â
Xaviera smiled sweetly, casually taking the card, âThank you.â
She then bounced up the stairs.
As soon as Xaviera was out of sight, Mrs. Campbell couldnât contain her anger, âWhy did you give her 200,000 dollars and take her to the Flack familyâs banquet?! Sheâs just a wild girl! Taking her to an upper-class banquet, do you know how embarrassing that would be?! Can our family even compete with the Imperial Capital Flack family?!â
Mr. Campbell frowned in displeasure, âIf we were still in Lokio City, it wouldnât matter. But now that weâre in Libanan, everyone knows weâve come to find our daughter. If we only take Anna to the banquet and not Xaviera, the Flack family will surely think our family lacks manners. Arenât we lowering our status by not having our biological daughter present but having our adopted daughter at the event instead?â
Mrs. Campbell reluctantly said, âBut⊠But you still gave Xaviera so much money. She couldâve just picked something from Annaâs old clothes. Theyâre all like new; no one would be able to tell the difference. Sheâs not some top noble lady, so whatâs the use of dressing so well!â
Mr. Campbell sighed helplessly, âNow we need Xavieraâs help. If we donât treat her properly, how can we ask her to plead with Mr. Mamet? Donât you want to save our son?â
