Chapter 514: Chapter 514: Successfully Snatching Away Anna Campbell’s Room
“What’s all this arguing about!” At this time, Mr. Campbell and Mrs. Campbell went upstairs, and Mrs. Campbell spoke impatiently, “Has the room been arranged?”
Xaviera Evans did not say a word, and Anna Campbell spoke out with grievance, “Mom, my sister… she doesn’t like the room I set up for her, she… she wants my room, but I…”
The Campbell couple exchanged glances, then glared at Xaviera viciously, “Isn’t there already a room arranged for you? Why do you have to take your sister’s?”
Xaviera sneered, Anna had just been gnashing her teeth in anger, but now she acted weak in front of the Campbell couple.
If she were just an ordinary child, she would definitely be heartbroken by her parent’s disdain and might even leave the Campbell family, but she was Xaviera Evans, whoever tried to harm her would pay the price.
Xaviera raised her eyes, “Mrs. Campbell, do you really disagree with me living in this room?”
“Anna is so considerate, she had already arranged a room for you before you even entered the door, yet you turned around and tried to take her room! How can you be so unreasonable!”
Mrs. Campbell frowned, feeling that her own daughter was really lacking in humility.
Xaviera helplessly said, “Fine, since you won’t let me live here, I’ll go live in the basement right now, but if this gets out, people will know that the Campbell family’s daughter is living in the basement, I don’t know what they would think.”
Mrs. Campbell’s expression changed, and Mr. Campbell was puzzled, “Living in the basement?”
Xaviera had a wronged look on her face, “Yes, the room my sister arranged for me is in the basement, and the maid’s room is next door. My sister says there are no empty rooms on the second and third floors, and those empty rooms have been made into her wardrobe, so I have to live in the basement. I thought you knew, or else why wouldn’t you let me live in Anna’s room.”
“I originally thought it was because my sister didn’t like me, so she hid this from you when arranging my room in the basement, but it turns out you all knew. Maybe this is the rule of the Campbell family, that the biological daughter can only live in the basement, while an adopted daughter can live on the spacious and bright third floor.”
“Actually, I don’t really care where I live, but if this gets out, it won’t be good for the Campbell family’s reputation. People will think the Campbell family has no sense of discipline, but since you feel this way, I’ll just live in the basement.”
Mr. Campbell hurriedly called out to her, “Wait!”
Mr. Campbell glared at Anna, then spoke sternly, “Anna, pack up your things now, and let Xaviera live here from now on!”
Anna’s eyes suddenly reddened, and she cried with grievance, “Dad! Alright! I’ll move now.”
This damn Xaviera! She had been gone for twenty years, why did she take her things as soon as she came back?
She just moved in and took away her room, would it be even more excessive in the future?
Mrs. Campbell looked heartbroken and tried to persuade, “Xaviera, there are no vacancies on this floor, so just temporarily live in the basement, it’s still much better than the room you used to live in before, why…”
Mrs. Campbell didn’t think there was anything wrong with letting Xaviera live in the basement, but rather felt that it suited this daughter well since she came from a slum.
“The basement is indeed better than the old neighborhood where I lived, but…”
Xaviera paused for a moment, and continued, “But I’m now the daughter of the Campbell family, if it weren’t for the mix-up back then, the person who should have been living in this room would have been me, maybe Mrs. Campbell wouldn’t even know Anna. And now Mrs. Campbell thinks I’m not worthy of living in this room? Do you think Anna is worthy?”
“Besides, she’s just an adopted daughter, living in the largest and most luxurious room in the whole villa, while I, your biological daughter, have to live in the basement, do you think that’s appropriate?”
“After all, the Campbell family is an aristocratic one. If people find out that the Campbell family doesn’t know the difference between status, won’t the other upper-class families laugh at us, and won’t it harm the company’s interests?”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s brows furrowed.
Mrs. Campbell clenched her teeth and raised her hand to slap Xaviera.
Mr. Campbell quickly grabbed her hand, stopping her action, “Xaviera is right, Anna, how could you arrange for your sister to live in the basement? You can’t be so unruly in the future!”
Anna was already angry, and upon hearing Mr. Campbell’s reprimand, her tears immediately fell.
