Chapter 1476: Chapter 1476: 4 Billion Dollars Can Only Be Considered Interest
"I saw it, and Iâm quite happy about it," Xaviera Evans answered indifferently.
"Happy?" Caleb Mamet raised his eyebrows, originally thinking about how to appease Mrs. Mamet, but she seemed quite pleased after reading those rumors.
Xaviera smiled, "Of course Iâm happy. Twilight admires Quinn Powellâs work, but her works are just the perfume formulas I left behind five years ago! If my work from five years ago was enough to catch Twilightâs attention, then my current work must have impressed him even more! Being held in such high regard by a genius in the perfume world, shouldnât I be happy?"
Caleb subtly shifted his gaze and chuckled in amusement, "Xavieraâs way of thinking is indeed very unique."
"Quinn Powell has won the championship for two years with the perfume formulas I left behind five years ago. Iâve made rapid progress in these years while sheâs remained stagnant. Those formulas were just practice for me, but I guess sheâs the only one who sees them as treasures."
After saying this, Xaviera added, "Twilightâs taste is not that great. Itâs surprising that a genius in the perfume world would be interested in those formulas."
Caleb appeared indifferent, "Youâve met Twilight before, why donât you ask him about Quinn Powell?"
"No need," Xaviera waved her hand.
Whether Twilight knew Quinn Powell or not had nothing to do with her. The rumors on the internet were what she wanted to see the most. Quinn Powell was in the limelight now, but she would be embarrassed once the truth was revealed.
"I heard that the Powell family invested another 4 billion dollars!" Xaviera sighed, "It seems that people are indeed greedy. Iâll take the 4 billion dollars as...compensation from Jacob Powell since he sucked so much blood from me!"
Sean Price could not help but be astonished. A compensation of 4 billion dollars? Mrs. Mamet is ruthless!
The next second, he heard his boss chuckle softly, but there was a cold killing intent in his voice, "How can 4 billion dollars be enough to buy Xavieraâs blood? This money can only be considered interest, the rest weâll calculate in the future."
Sean Price: "....." Alright! He had just misunderstood Mrs. Mamet. Who could be more ruthless than Mr. Mamet?
At this moment, two shadow guards sent out by Caleb arrived at the door and happened to hear Xavieraâs words. One of them, named Dark Dragon, muttered softly, "Isnât Mrs. Mamet the daughter of the Powell family? How could she have the heart to take 4 billion dollars from her own family? I bet Mr. Powell must regret recognizing this daughter."
The room fell silent in an instant. Sean Priceâs body suddenly stiffened, wishing he could go over and kick Dark Dragon out.
The ice-cold air around Caleb thickened, but Xaviera appeared nonchalant and took Calebâs hand, "Donât worry, I want to hear what else he has to say."
Dark Dragon, standing outside the door, didnât know that his words had been heard by Caleb inside the room. He continued to complain to his companion, "Even if Quinn Powell offended Mrs. Mamet, she shouldnât have jeopardized the Powell familyâs company! The Powell family invested so much money, and she insists on causing damageâthatâs 4 billion dollars! Whatâs the point of making her family suffer such a huge loss?"
"Why would Mr. Mamet marry such a ruthless and vicious woman?"
As the words came out, the nearby shadow guard, Dark Dust, did not respond. He saw Caleb in the study, and his breathing seemed to stop.
Calebâs gaze remained calm, lazily leaning back in his chair with a slight smile on his lips, as if he had heard something amusing. But Sean Price knew that this was just the calm before the storm.
Dark Dust wanted to warn Dark Dragon, but Caleb gestured to stop him, leaving no choice but to listen as Dark Dragon continued voicing his opinions.
"Actually, I heard about Mrs. Mametâs background before we returned. Sheâs the daughter of the Powell family who was lost outside, and they just recognized her recently. Marrying Mr. Mamet with such an identity is indeed a step up. Moreover, sheâs not favored in her family, yet sheâs going against them. Does she want both her family and herself to be ruined? I really donât know what sheâs thinking!"
"No matter what, Mr. Powell is still her relative. How could sheâ"
Before he could finish, a cold female voice suddenly rang out from outside, interrupting him with a smile, "Then tell me, what do you think I should do?"
Dark Dragon was startled by the sudden voice, and turning around, he saw Xaviera and Caleb in the study. Seeing Dark Dust kneeling beside him, he reluctantly knelt down too and said, "Mr. Mamet."
Both of them had their heads lowered. Dark Dust was alarmed. Having served as a shadow guard to Mr. Mamet for so many years, he knew Mr. Mametâs character well. He was sure that Mr. Mamet was on the verge of a rage.
