Chapter 531: Chapter 531: Fair-skinned, Beautiful, and Long-legged
The atmosphere immediately became awkward, as Nidya Hughes and Anna Campbellâs mouths twitched slightly.
Nidya Hughes endured her anger, gritting her teeth and saying, âI tell you, Xaviera, if you donât divorce now, you will regret it one day!â
Anna Campbell also tried to persuade Xaviera kindly, âSister, Mom is afraid that you will be hurt in the future. How can you refuse? You and Mr. Caleb Mamet are not right for each other, there should be a more outstanding woman to marry him.â
Xaviera laughed sarcastically, raising her eyebrows, âThat more outstanding woman wouldnât be you, would it? You want to marry Caleb? Thatâs why Mrs. Campbell announced that you admired Caleb at the banquet?â
Nidya Hughes argued, âAnna is a well-bred lady, while you grew up in the countryside and are vulgar. Mr. Caleb is only interested in you now because you are pretty. In a few years, he will be completely tired of you and wonât even give you a second glance. But Anna is different; she is knowledgeable and skilled to keep a manâs interest so that Caleb will fall for her.â
What the hell!
Steve Price couldnât help but spit outside the door.
Xaviera looked coldly at Nidya Hughes, âYou are really confident!â
Nidya knew Xaviera was mocking her and her face turned green with anger.
After a long silence, Anna Campbell spoke gently, âSister, actually, I have liked Mr. Caleb for a long time. After my mother found out, she couldnât bear to see me in an unrequited love, so she persuaded you to divorce.â
âMoreover, you and Mr. Caleb are not suitable for each other. Rather than being hurt later, itâs better to divorce early and cut your losses. Besides, you are already betrothed and are not a suitable wife for Mr. Caleb. Please let Mr. Caleb go and let me have my chance, okay?â
Xaviera widened her eyes, shocked by this mother and daughterâs audacity.
Not only was Xaviera angry, but Steve Price also wanted to rush in and beat up Anna Campbell when he heard her demand Xaviera give up Mr. Caleb.
Xaviera scoffed, âMrs. Campbell, itâs not that Iâm unwilling, but Mr. Caleb likes beautiful women with fair skin and long legs like me. Your looks are inferior to mine, so if Caleb has to settle for second-best, I donât think he would be willing. Even if I get a divorce, Iâm afraid it wonât be your turn, sister!â
Upon hearing this, Anna Campbellâs face paled.
Nidya Hughes was so angry that she clenched her teeth and smashed the coffee cup Xaviera had just used on the floor, accompanied by her furious howl.
âShut up! How is your sister not as good as you! Your sister is not only beautiful but also a top noble lady, countless times better than you! You are the ugly one!â
Xavieraâs expression turned cold.
Such a great mother indeed! To favor an adopted daughter, she would force her own daughter to divorce and even say that her daughter is inferior to Anna Campbell.
Xavieraâs eyes were indifferent as she said slowly, âThatâs right, I am your daughter. If I am ugly, itâs because your genes are so bad!â
âYou!â Nidya Hughes had no way to refute, her face turning red with anger. She picked up a coffee cup from the table and threw it at Xaviera.
âYou little bitch! How dare you curse me? Apologize to Anna right now! What makes you think Anna isnât as beautiful as you? Look at your rascal face; you are not even worth a single hair of Annaâs head! You are just a slum rat⊠Ah!â
Suddenly, a stone flew in from the door and hit Nidya Hughesâs wrist hard.
Caleb slowly walked in, his gaze cold and his voice calm but with a hint of chill, âMrs. Campbell, since you insult my wife like this, there is no need for us to continue this conversation. Xaviera, letâs go.â
As soon as Jeremy Campbell heard this, he rushed over, âNidya Hughes! Are you out of your mind?â
Nidya Hughes was panic-stricken and couldnât help but glance at Caleb. She felt his stare was like a sharp sword, making her tremble all over.
Calebâs face was calm, but his deep eyes were suffocating her.
Nidya Hughes tried to compose herself, âI⊠I was just joking with Xaviera. Mr. Caleb, donât misunderstand. Xaviera is a bit mischievous. As her mother, itâs okay for me to scold her, isnât it? I am doing this for her own good.â
Jeremy Campbell immediately roared, âI told you to shut up! Did you hear me?â
