Chapter 1463: Chapter 1463: Killing and Punishing the Heart is Nothing More than This

"You are my biological father and brother, but you both side with an adopted daughter. In your eyes, I, your own daughter, am just an outsider. I come home happily to be with you, and this is what I see. I am slightly unhappy, and Mr. Powell criticizes me. Do I not even have the right to be unhappy?"

Xaviera sneered: "Besides, even if I am unhappy, I did not force Miss Powell to give up her room, and I accepted the room she arranged, but Mr. Powell still thinks that I am squabbling with Miss Powell. Since Mr. Powell is so intolerant of me, there is no need for me to stay in the Powell family."

Quinn and Jacob both held their breaths.

Robert panicked: "Xaviera, don’t leave! Your brother... didn’t mean that. He misspoke."

"Mr. Powell and Mr. Powell." Caleb’s eyebrows and eyes were cold as he looked over, "Why don’t you try to think from Xaviera’s perspective? Miss Powell has been living in the Powell family for more than a decade. She has enjoyed glory and wealth and endless love. Now that Xaviera has returned, she doesn’t want to compete with her and has made concessions. But you’re still not satisfied, so what should Xaviera do?"

Caleb’s voice was filled with a deep chill: "Does Xaviera have to accept your arrangements happily for you to be satisfied? On the surface, she is the Powell family’s daughter, but in reality, she is an outsider. I ask you, is this a search for a long-lost family member, or are you looking for an unresisting puppet?"

"Miss Powell." Caleb’s eyes were cold, and his voice was low: "At such a young age, you are really good at playing tricks. Killing without spilling blood is nothing compared to this."

Quinn met Caleb’s cold gaze, and she was so scared that cold sweat broke out on her back. She even felt that in the next second, Caleb would twist her neck off.

Jacob’s heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t help but fall into deep thought. He remembered that Quinn used to cry to him, saying that Xaviera bullied her and couldn’t stand her, but he had never seen it with his own eyes.

If they thought from Xaviera’s point of view, they did indeed favor Quinn and made Xaviera sad, but after all, Quinn had accompanied them for more than a decade, and it was not wrong for them to love her, right!

However... Xaviera was indeed Robert’s biological daughter, and letting her stay in the guest room did indeed seem unfair.

With this thought in mind, Jacob suddenly felt a little guilty, and he began to consider how to make amends with Xaviera.

At this point, the butler’s voice suddenly came from the door: "Sir, there is a Mrs. Wenzel outside to visit. Should I invite her in?"

It was suddenly quiet all around, and Xaviera imperceptibly hooked the corner of her lips.

Quinn, on the other hand, felt as if she had been granted amnesty and met her savior. She hurriedly said: "Dad, Mrs. Wenzel should be here to see me."

"Wenzel?" Robert thought for a while and remembered, "She’s the founder of the Star Music Festival and also a highly talented perfumer. I’ve heard that many aristocrats in Yittaland have asked her to make perfume."

Quinn nodded, her smile brilliant: "Yes, Mrs. Wenzel said that if I could win an award this time, she would help introduce me to those aristocrats."

In a blink of an eye, Robert put the matter behind him, looked at Quinn with satisfaction, and said, "Quinn! I never thought you would know Mrs. Wenzel. You’re truly Daddy’s sweet heart! Quickly invite Mrs. Wenzel in!"

Quinn glanced at Xaviera with some concern, "But Xaviera... "

Robert suddenly realized, thought for a moment, and then said: "Xaviera, it’s Daddy’s fault for not considering your feelings. But since Quinn has already moved into that room, it’s impossible to kick her out. There’s an empty room on the second floor, and I’ll have the maid clean it up for you to stay in for now. We’ll remodel it when there’s time."

Xaviera slowly raised her eyes to meet Quinn’s triumphant, sarcastic glance and hooked the corner of her lips.

Isn’t Miss Powell celebrating too early? Mrs. Wenzel has already arrived, and she might be crying soon!

Xaviera was very clear that the Powell father and son would not let Quinn move out. Even if Robert impulsively agreed to do so, Quinn would faint on the spot, and the father and son would relent and change their minds.

As for Robert suggesting that she be arranged in an empty room on the second floor, that was even more ridiculous. She had already asked the butler earlier, and there were only three bedrooms on the second floor. The remaining room was probably a storeroom, and it would not be very spacious. Turning it into a proper room would be quite a stretch, wouldn’t it?
