Chapter 508: Chapter 508: The Campbell Family Visits
Mrs. Campbell was almost furious, and Mr. Campbell frowned, “If we don’t recognize Xaviera, how can we save our son? How can we make her reconcile with us?”
Mrs. Campbell choked up, her face flushed with the effort.
At this point, Anna wiped her tears and said softly, “It’s better to acknowledge Xaviera as my sister… Actually, I’ve always wanted a sister, and besides, she’s our parents’ flesh and blood. It’s not appropriate for her to be out in the world alone.”
Mrs. Campbell didn’t expect Anna to say this. She felt even more distressed and said, “My dear Anna is so considerate and can see the big picture. But we’re worried about mistreating you.”
Mr. Campbell sighed, “Anyway, we have to go there once. Even if we don’t recognize Xaviera, we should thank your sister Nina. She saved Xaviera and took her to live in Libanan. Now that we’ve finally found Nina’s whereabouts, we owe the Hughes family an explanation.”
“Moreover, the family head said that Xaviera must be brought back. If you don’t recognize her, it’s disobeying the family head’s orders.”
Mrs. Campbell’s heart trembled, and she realized that she had been too impulsive just now. After calming down, she reluctantly agreed, “Fine! She can come back to the Campbell family, but Anna must be Miss Campbell! Xaviera is just a wild girl. Even if she comes back, she shouldn’t expect to overshadow Anna. Being allowed to return to the Campbell family is already a blessing for her.”
Anna interjected, “But Mom, she’s the real…”
“What’s the use of being blood-related! I don’t have any feelings for her. Moreover, she has already caused so much trouble even before returning to the Campbell family. I think she’s a jinx! She’s not worthy of being my daughter. Even if she comes back to the Campbell family, I won’t recognize her as my biological daughter!”
Anna’s eyes lowered, her lips curled into a cold smile.
As expected, her mother won’t accept Xaviera. After all, Xaviera has hurt the Campbell family and even caused her brother to be arrested. Even if Xaviera returns, her mother won’t accept her.
At this time, Xaviera returned to her secret hideout—her residence in her Black Tide identity. It was a small, dilapidated apartment in an old neighborhood, crowded with people from all walks of life.
The Campbell family eventually tracked Xaviera down to this place. They were genuinely shocked that she lived in such a rundown area.
Anna frowned; the neighborhood’s narrow streets made it impossible for their car to enter, so they had to walk in themselves. It had rained the day before, and the streets were full of mud. Their sheepskin high heels would be ruined if they touched water.
Mrs. Campbell, her face dark, could only grumble in a low voice, “I just can’t believe that my daughter lives in such a shabby place. It’s so embarrassing. If she comes back to the Campbell family, everyone would laugh at us.”
Noble ladies in the upper class had to receive etiquette training and top-tier education since they represented their family’s image. If others found out that a Campbell daughter grew up in such a place, how could she ever show her face at future banquets?
Mrs. Campbell lowered her head. If not for her son, she would never have come to this place.
The group slowly climbed the stairs. The staircase was narrow, and the cement steps had cracked due to disrepair, making each step feel like walking on large rocks.
As they walked slowly, Mr. Campbell wiped the sweat off his forehead, reconfirmed the address, and knocked on the door.
Xaviera, who was inside, heard the knocking and gave a meaningful smile. Then, she closed her computer, got up, opened the door with a surprised expression on her face, “Mrs. Campbell?”
A moment later.
Xaviera asked calmly, “Mr. and Mrs. Campbell, are you saying that I am your long-lost biological daughter? I was replaced by the Campbell family’s enemies, and they found a child of similar age to mine to avoid being discovered? You came to Libanan to find me?”
Mrs. Campbell, suppressing her anger, remained silent.
Mr. Campbell looked up at the cramped room and, trying to ignore his annoyance, spoke gently, “We only recently found out that our child had been switched. We followed the trail and came to Libanan. You and Anna had some misunderstandings before, but those were all accidents.”
