Chapter 658: Chapter 658: Public Opinion in Society
Nidya Hughes sobbed, “Xaviera, I’m sorry. It was my negligence that led to you being taken away. Ever since I found out about this, I’ve been looking for you. Now that I’ve finally found you, there have been misunderstandings between us, and you refuse to come home.”
“Xaviera, I’ve been looking for you all these years. Little did I know my own sister found and adopted you by accident. She even wrote me a letter to pick you up. But she passed away before she could send it…”
“She is no longer alive. You can’t be without a home. Come back, Xaviera. For your aunt’s sake, come back to your mother, will you?”
When Nidya finished speaking, Xaviera saw her tear open a letter with her mother’s name, Nina Hughes, signed on it. The handwriting looked just like her mother’s. Could it be that her mother really wrote a letter to Nidya?
Logically speaking, knowing someone was after her, for the sake of security, her mother should have sent the letter to someone she trusted most, such as Madam Russell and Mr. Russell. However, Nidya and her sister never got along and had little contact. Why would her mother send the letter to Nidya?
Was Nidya trying to use her mother to force her back to the Campbell family?
Nidya showed the letter for a while and continued to cry, “When my sister left Libanan, she took many valuable things from the Campbell and Hughes families. She mentioned these assets in the letter and wished they could be returned. Xaviera, you have those things, don’t you?”
“Xaviera, it is totally normal not to want to return those precious items, but it was your aunt’s last wish, and as her adopted daughter, you should carry it out.”
“I promise you that we will keep your aunt’s belongings and never sell or use them. We just want to put them in the room where she once lived, to commemorate her.”
“It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for my child, my sister would not have had to live in hiding in Libanan and die there. I failed her. Now that she’s gone, all I can do is try to fulfill her last wish. Xaviera, your aunt struggled to raise you. You should be grateful and repay that kindness.”
After hearing this, the netizens sighed. Mrs. Nina Hughes went to Libanan alone to find her niece and eventually left her life there. If Xaviera did not return her aunt’s belongings, it would mean she wanted to keep those valuable assets for herself.
Xaviera squinted slightly. Nidya was clever this time, knowing it was impossible to force her to return to the Campbell family, so she came up with this idea to use public opinion to pressure her into going back.
Due to her foster mother’s dying wish, she had no choice but to go back and take the inheritance with her.
She could go back, but they better not regret it!
…
Back at the Campbell family residence,
Nidya checked the online comments and finally let out a sigh of relief, “Let’s see how that little bitch can fight me now!”
Just as her words settled, Jeremy Campbell came downstairs. Nidya hastily said nervously, “Husband, don’t be angry. I only did this to bring Xaviera back. Besides, how can a child manage her aunt’s belongings? All I want is to get those things back. They don’t belong to her, so she should return them.”
Jeremy frowned and glanced at Nidya, his face gloomy. He didn’t approve of her actions, but since it was Madam’s order, he couldn’t defy.
Jeremy looked sullen, “Our company is already in dire straits. If Xaviera gives back the inheritance, it’s great. But if any more issues arise, the Campbell family is finished! Nidya, I’m warning you, don’t mess with Xaviera again. If we offend her, none of us will have a good outcome!”
Nidya held back her dissatisfaction but appeared obedient, nodding her head, “I understand. I won’t provoke Xaviera. As long as she hands over the inheritance, everything will be fine.”
Public opinion was now growing increasingly intense. If Xaviera didn’t hand over the inheritance, she would be seen as disloyal and unfilial. At that time, she shouldn’t blame Nidya for being ruthless. The reputation of the Mamet Corporation would also be affected, and perhaps Caleb would divorce Xaviera out of anger.
There was no explicit response from Xaviera. The netizens were about to explode, leaving comments under her work. Anna Campbell’s fans also sent private messages cursing her.
