Chapter 938 -938: The Secret of Nidya Hughes

The Russell family members refuted the rumors, but they had no substantial evidence, so they couldn’t state their case clearly.

After finishing the cake, Xaviera wiped the cream off the corner of her mouth and revealed a satisfied smile. Even though she was sitting in a corner, she still attracted much attention.

At this moment, someone suddenly asked, “Sir Hughes, the Hughes Group’s official account has already announced Miss Hughes’ engagement to Mr. Caleb Mamet, but Mr. Mamet and Mrs. Mamet…”

Cory Hughes smiled kindly and said, “You’re all overthinking things. This marriage has, of course, received Mr. Mamet’s approval; otherwise, how would I dare to take matters into my own hands?”

At this time, both Zora’s father, Jonas Hughes, and her aunt, Nidya Hughes, had arrived. As Xaviera’s biological mother, Nidya Hughes instantly became the center of attention for all the reporters.

Upon seeing her father and aunt, Zora hurriedly stepped forward with a happy expression. Seeing his two children, Cory’s face lit up with a grin, “Nidya, Jonas.”

Xaviera looked at Nidya Hughes, who seemed to have become more mature. She no longer cared about her adopted daughter Anna Campbell, and now that she had returned to the Hughes family and started a new life, she should restrain herself more.

Seeing the happy appearance of several Hughes family members, Xaviera couldn’t help but squint her eyes. She really didn’t understand why Nidya was so fond of Anna and now very close to Zora, but so indifferent to her own biological daughter.

She looked at the people of the Hughes family, wondering why everyone had come except Zora’s mother. Moreover, Zora didn’t even ask about her mother, as if she had become used to it. She had heard that Mrs. Hughes never attended any banquets and always kept a low profile. Xaviera even wondered if this person really existed.

Nidya held Zora’s hand with a loving expression, “Zora, don’t worry, you’re the rightful Mrs. Mamet! You’re the noble lady of the Hughes family, carefully cultivated since childhood. Only you are worthy of Mr. Mamet.”

Zora blushed shyly but pretended to be indecisive, “Aunt, you’re Xaviera’s biological mother. If she finds out you’re speaking for me, she’ll be heartbroken. Moreover, she and Caleb haven’t divorced yet, so we…”

“I am her biological mother, so I know her, and I know she’s unfit to be Mrs. Mamet!” Nidya’s gaze turned fierce as soon as Xaviera’s name was mentioned.

“Zora, rest assured and prepare to be Mrs. Mamet! She’ll have to step aside sooner or later. The Drew family doesn’t even acknowledge her identity. How could she have the face to stick around? And with the good relationship between our Hughes family and the Drew family, and their support, you will eventually have this position!”

Actually, Nidya felt somewhat resentful as well. At first, she had planned to have Anna marry Caleb, as she was the daughter she had raised since childhood and there was an emotional bond. But once she was driven back to the Hughes family, and Jonas told her something, she decided to wholeheartedly help Zora win the position.

Nidya whispered reassuringly, “I haven’t divorced Jeremy Campbell yet, so I’m still Mrs. Campbell. Vivian Drew’s marriage to the Riker family is an old family friendship. The two families are close, and with the Drew family’s support, this marriage will naturally be successful.”

Jonas also laughed and said, “Nidya is right, Zora, just wait patiently for your wedding.”

Xaviera looked at Nidya, sneered, thinking about how this woman once treated Anna as her treasure but eventually abandoned her heartlessly. Anna is now living like a street rat, yet Nidya doesn’t care. Instead, she’s showing concern for Zora.

In the memory of the Russell family, Nidya was a kind and sensible child when she was young. Although she was the youngest, she was very well-behaved. To prevent her parents from separating, she voluntarily accompanied her father to leave home. Fearing her siblings’ sadness, she decided to return to her family to be with them. How could such a child have become this way?

Nidya’s eyes were filled with fierceness and selfishness. Perhaps she had genuinely loved Jeremy and pampered Anna, but these two people were insignificant compared to her own interests. Everything she did was for her own benefit, like helping Zora snatch Xaviera’s fiance. All she wanted were wealth and power.

How could this woman standing before Xaviera possibly be the well-behaved and obedient little girl mentioned by the Russell family?

Xaviera felt perplexed. Before she could figure it out, someone suddenly blocked her line of sight. Nidya, with a fierce gaze, stood before Xaviera. The thought of being kicked out of the Campbell family by Jeremy, laughed at by the entire Lokio city, and now living a life depending on the Hughes family made her want to tear Xaviera to pieces.
