Translator: 549690339
āThere are cockroaches in the basement, and itās very damp. I canāt sleep at all. If I had to sleep in the basement, I might as well live with my foster mother. Even though we donāt share any blood ties, at least I have my own room there, and I can live in a big house, and not care about the servantsā facesā¦ā
Xavieraās every word seemed to be full of blood, as she expressed her resentment and indignation over the years.
The boy who had originally defended Mag was suddenly embarrassed and stepped back.
Irene Hamer sneered, āIāve really learned something today. An illegitimate daughter took over the ladyās room, and the lady was forced to sleep in the basement⦠Mrs. Campbell is truly skilled!ā
There was a buzzing sound in Rose Campbellās head, āItās not like thatā¦ā
Ireneās words were sharp, āIsnāt the Evans familyās villa not big enough? Even the servants have their own separate rooms, yet you let Xaviera sleep in the basement? No wonder youāre a mistress who got to the top, with an illegitimate status and ruthless methods!ā
The crowd quickly nodded in agreement.
Mag sobbed helplessly, āWuuu⦠Sister, I didnāt do it on purpose. Iām sorry. Iāll vacate the room right now. Iām not worthy of your room⦠wuuu wuuuā¦ā
āIf you knew you were unworthy, why did you have the nerve to live there in the first place? You lived there so comfortably for all these years, and now youāre spouting nonsense?ā
Irene coldly reprimanded, āDo you have the nerve to clean up the room for
Xaviera? Just give up the room directly! What are you pretending here?ā
Xaviera sighed inwardly that Irene, as the daughter of the Hamer family, could speak up without her having to say a word.
Magās face turned ashen, and she clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her palms, trembling all over.
āXaviera! Donāt wrong Mag!ā
Jessi Whitman shouted, āBack when you disappeared, the room was vacant. Mag only moved in then. Sheās also the daughter of the Evans family, so why canāt she stay?ā
āSheās been there for so manv vears. and vou want to take it awav? Itās normal
for her to be reluctant. Donāt be merciless while in the right!ā
Xaviera listened calmly to Jessiās angry howls, and spoke unhurriedly, āThat room was decorated by my late mother and me. My mother designed it according to my preferences, and the room also contains the jewelry, antique calligraphy, and paintings that she left behind.ā
Her tone was gentle, but her words were resolute, making Rose Campbellās face as pale as paper.
Xaviera continued slowly, āWhen I wasnāt around, I didnāt care that Mag was staying there, but when I returned to the Evans family, I still had to sleep in the basement.ā
āJessi, I heard that your family also has an illegitimate daughter around your age. Could you give up your room and let her live there, along with the jewelry, clothes, and shoes in the room? What do you think?ā
āNo, no.ā Irene smiled and interjected, āXaviera, you got one thing wrong. Jessi is not the original wifeās daughter but an illegitimate one as well. So, itās understandable that sheās defending Mag since they share a common bond.ā
The crowd immediately looked at Jessi with disdain.
āSo sheās an illegitimate daughter too!ā
Xaviera feigned surprise, āI see! No wonder she and Mag are so close. I understand now.ā
Jessi was so angry that she gritted her teeth but couldnāt say a word.
Mag stood nearby, her head hung low, body swaying unsteadily.
This bitch! She dared to mock her in front of so many people!
Xaviera hadnāt even come home yet and already wanted to take her room. If she really returned, there would be no good days for her in the future!
āMag has been in that room for so many years that she should be used to it. Itās too much trouble to change rooms. As the elder sister, canāt you just let her be?
Why do you have to be so aggressive?ā
Madam Evans frowned, āBy taking you back without holding a grudge, the
Evans family has already given you enough face. Donāt overstep!ā
Derek Evans suddenly squeezed out a smile, āXaviera, Iāve arranged a room for you, and itās been renovated as well. If youāre not satisfied, we can discuss it further, but there is another important matter we need to talk about.ā Oh ho! Finally getting to the point.
Derek cleared his throat, seemingly reluctant, āThereās a problem with the Evans family now. The company isnāt doing well, and your foster family thinks the Evans family has treated you badly. To stand up for you, they took action against the Evans Company..ā
