Chapter 1389: Chapter 1389: Perhaps They Are Swindlers
Jacob Powell immediately found the doctor, and learned from the doctor that Quinn Powellâs condition was very bad, and she could lose her life at any time.
The doctor asked with some confusion: "Mr. Powell, I remember that Miss Powell was in the same situation back then. All the doctors said there was no hope, but she suddenly recovered. How did you do it? Her condition this time is very aggressive, Iâm afraid..."
Jacobâs body stiffened instantly.
Back then, he knew that Xavieraâs blood could revive people from the dead, so he deliberately got close to her and took some of her blood to save Quinnâs life. Now that she had appeared again, and Quinn was sick again, did he have to...
"Mr. Powell, I heard that you are temporarily leaving Yittaland, but Miss Powellâs condition is not good. She needs someone by her side. Perhaps you should stay," the doctor reminded him, and then turned and left.
Jacob was in turmoil, unsure of how to choose. On one side was Xaviera, and on the other side was Quinn. Both of them were his sisters.
Now that Quinnâs condition was serious, if he and his father both left, what should she do all alone at home?
After much consideration, Jacob finally decided to stay. Xaviera would understand him, after all, Quinn had always been frail and sickly. It was only right to take care of her.
On the other hand, when Robert Powell learned that Jacob Powell was staying in Yittaland for Quinn Powell, he did not object. It didnât matter whether he went a day earlier or later, and once Xaviera returned to Yittaland, they would meet. Moreover, Jacob was staying for his sick sister, not for some other reason. Xaviera would surely understand.
Robert didnât mind this small matter, and excitedly arrived at the manor. However, the housekeeper, Jimmy, looked troubled. "Lord, you have all decided to bring Miss back. If Mr. Mamet doesnât go, it will seem that he doesnât value her. And if she finds out that he stayed for Miss Quinn, she might think that you favor Miss Quinn and feel left out."
Robert waved his hand with a smile. "No, that wonât happen! My daughter is magnanimous and wonât mind such trivial matters. Quinn has a gentle and kind temperament, and the two of them are close in age. Once she comes home, they will surely become close sisters who share everything."
Jimmy: "..."
Jimmy could see that if Mr. Mamet didnât go, even if the young lady didnât say anything, she would still feel upset. After all, the family already had a beloved foster daughter. Who would care about her?
The Lord still didnât care about othersâ feelings as before. He always believed that everything could be negotiated and that there was no need to worry too much. However, this often hurt the people around him.
In Libanan, Cotal.
"So Jacob Powell is not coming, and Robert Powell is coming alone?" Xaviera Evans leaned lazily on the sofa.
Sean Price: "Yes, maâam. This is the news from Yittaland. I donât know why the Powell family is so sure about your blood relationship with them. They didnât send anyone to investigate, and Robert Powell came personally. But if theyâre really sure of your identity, itâs strange that Jacob Powell didnât come."
Yigol Mamet looked confused. "Xaviera, whatâs going on? Who is Robert Powell?"
Xaviera briefly explained the cause and effect, deliberately avoiding some details. Yigol was surprised and asked, "Are you really going back to Yitaland with them?"
Jeremy Campbell had already said that Xaviera was not his and Lillian Hughesâ daughter, and Xaviera had a blood relationship with Mrs. Russell. This indicated that one of her parents must be related to the Russell family. In this case, she should be Nina Hughesâ daughter.
As for Robert Powell, he could be Nina Hughesâ husband. But did Mrs. Hughes really get married? Before she came to Libanan, she had already married someone else. So why did she marry Derek Evans?
Yigol Mamet couldnât help but fall into deep thought. After a while, he hesitantly spoke up, "Xaviera, you should be cautious about this. The Powell family is an Earl family in Yittaland. Robert Powellâs wifeâs name should be included in the family genealogy, but Sean Price couldnât find out who his wife really is. I always feel that something is wrong. Maybe they are scammers!"
"That makes sense." Xaviera rested her chin on her hand and responded with a smile.
Yigol Mamet frowned, "I heard that Robert Powell will arrive in Libanan soon. If you donât want to see him, Iâll drive him away and not let him bother you!"
Sean Price looked helpless. How could Mr. Yigol Mamet, who had been in charge of the company for a long time, still like to solve problems with violence? With his wifeâs intelligence, dealing with a Robert Powell would be more than enough!
