Chapter 482: 482: Godfather and Godmother Come to Support
“I spent quite a bit of money raising you too, and I can’t bear this cost alone, so I… used part of the dowry left by your mother. I really can’t give it all back to you!”
Derek Evans pleaded earnestly, “Xaviera, actually, all these years, I’ve always had great expectations for you. I know you hate Rose Campbell and Mag, so I haven’t let Rose enter our house now. It was only because of Mag’s engagement banquet that I allowed her to return. But you’ve turned the Evans family upside-down over such a small matter. How can I hand over the management of our family to you?”
“Xaviera, I’m your father. Even though we had some misunderstandings, you are always my daughter. You can’t… cause such unpleasantness with your own family. It’s not good for your reputation, you know…”
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door. Caleb Mamet slowly looked up, “Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan, please come in.”
Xaviera was startled for a few seconds, then suddenly turned around.
At the entrance stood an elegant noblewoman and her husband, both dressed meticulously and wearing faint smiles on their lips. Under everyone’s gaze, they slowly walked in.
Doris Sullivan took a glance around, looked tenderly at Xaviera, then walked over to Caleb Mamet, slightly nodded her head, and the two exchanged greetings.
Standing next to Doris was the fashionable Mrs. Sullivan, with taut skin and a stunning figure. Wearing a dazzling sapphire necklace around her neck, she exuded the charm of a mature woman. Who would know that she was Albert Sullivan’s mother if they didn’t say?
Mrs. Sullivan, with her aura in full swing, spoke with red lips lightly parting, “Mr. Evans, today my husband and I are here to tell you that Xaviera’s maternal family is not the Evans family!”
Xaviera was somewhat surprised and hurried to Caleb’s side, asking in a low voice, “You brought them here?”
Mrs. Sullivan proudly raised her head, glanced coldly at the Evans family, and then sneered, “Mr. Evans, I heard from outside just now that you used Mrs. Hughes’s assets to raise Xaviera. That seems reasonable since she is not solely your daughter, and Mrs. Hughes should bear part of the expenses. But are you sure your money was really spent on Xaviera?”
Caleb whispered into Xaviera’s ear, “I asked them to come and support you. Surprise?”
Xaviera hurriedly nodded. This was really a big surprise!
“You said the Evans family business is not doing well, but how can Rose Campbell have the money to buy jewelry? I heard that Mrs. Campbell spent a fortune, more than 10 million dollars, at the jewelry store. Whose money was that? I think everyone knows the answer.”
Derek Evans’s face turned green with anger, “Who are you? What does my conversation with my daughter have to do with you?”
Mrs. Sullivan ignored him and went straight to Rose Campbell. She raised her hand and slapped her fiercely, then snatched a necklace from her neck.
“Everyone, take a good look, this necklace is a custom-made, new design from HT. The price is about 10 million dollars, and it seems that Mrs. Campbell bought more than just this piece.”
“Mr. Evans, you said you spent a lot of money raising Xaviera. But as far as I know, Xaviera was not raised by you. You threw her in the countryside, leaving her to fend for herself. You even let your mistress’s illegitimate daughter take over her identity and assets. Now, even the dowry left by Mrs. Hughes has to go to an illegitimate daughter. Do you think we are all fools?”
Xaviera happily ran over to Mrs. Sullivan and shouted, “Godmother! Godfather!”
“Sweetheart!” Mrs. Sullivan raised an eyebrow and looked disdainfully at Derek Evans, “I’m sorry, Mr. Evans, but Xaviera is my daughter. You are not worthy of being her father! Using Xaviera’s assets to support a mistress and illegitimate daughter, do you still have the nerve to bargain here? Give the money back to Xaviera now!”
As soon as the words fell, she walked over to Derek Evans, radiating anger, and rolled her eyes at him, “Mr. Evans, you pamper an illegitimate daughter but mistreat the daughter of your legitimate wife. You even let Mag wrong Xaviera. Is this how you act as a father?”
“And Madame Evans, you forced Xaviera to break up with Moore Mamet for the sake of an illegitimate daughter. You completely disregarded Xaviera and Moore’s engagement and demanded that Xaviera give in. As Xaviera’s grandmother, you favor an illegitimate daughter. Are you worthy to be Xaviera’s grandmother?”
