Chapter 593: Chapter 593: Holding a Birthday Banquet at the Same Time
The Campbell Villa.
Heartbroken, Nidya Hughes hugged Anna Campbell and screamed, “No way! I will never allow Anna to leave! She has been living in this family for twenty years. How could you drive her away?! She is your daughter too! How cruel are you!”
Jeremy Campbell’s face was dark, “It’s either she gets out or that maid does! Otherwise, our Campbell family will completely offend the Russell family and Caleb Mamet!”
Anna’s body trembled slightly.
Nidya hugged her, “Mother Deng worked for our family when she was young. Although she made a mistake by switching the children, she gifted us a sensible daughter, Anna. We still have a daughter, so what difference does it make? Why do we have to cling to this matter?”
“Shut up! You fool! If you are not willing, then get out of the Campbell family with her!” Jeremy yelled at her, pointing at her nose, furious.
He glared at his scheming daughter and his stupid, pig-like wife. If this continued, the Campbell family would fall into their hands sooner or later.
Jeremy took a deep breath and ordered, “It’s Xaviera’s birthday soon. I’ve prepared a grand banquet for her, inviting the Campbell family’s friends and relatives. I’ll announce her as the Miss Campbell during the banquet.”
Nidya gritted her teeth in anger, “No way! That’s clearly Anna’s birthday! Why should Xaviera have a birthday banquet? Ever since Xaviera returned to the Campbell family, she’s been targeting Anna. She wants to compete with Anna for everything! Anna is the daughter we’ve raised for twenty years! And don’t forget, it was Xaviera who got your son into the police station!”
Despite Nidya’s words, Jeremy had made up his mind and shouted, “Nidya! How can you explain this to the family head! And the legacy left by Nina…”
His voice paused, and there was a moment of loss in his eyes.
Nidya was stunned for a few seconds, then laughed madly, “Haha…Jeremy, I thought you really cared about Xaviera! It turns out it’s all for Nina Hughes, isn’t it? You’ve always been fond of her, so you are fond of the daughter she raised, right?”
“Xaviera is our birth daughter and should return to the Campbell family, but she cannot take the position of Miss Campbell!” Nidya’s face was ferocious as she roared.
“”Anna is the top noble lady we’ve carefully nurtured. If outsiders find out she’s just an adopted daughter, those other daughters would ridicule her, and our years of hard work would be ruined! Xaviera is a country bumpkin who knows nothing. What can she bring to the Campbell family?”
Jeremy remained silent.
“You want to talk about Mr. Caleb Mamet? Although Xaviera is married to Mr. Mamet, how long will his affection last? With Xaviera’s temperament, she’ll be abandoned sooner or later. Without Mr. Mamet, she’s useless! We’d still have to support her in the end!”
“”Anna is now the leader of the top noble ladies. She has connections with major families. She can bring huge benefits to our Campbell family. If her identity is exposed, who among those families will still want to deal with Anna? If Anna falls, so does the Campbell family! Do you understand this logic?”
Jeremy’s eyes were full of contradictions. Indeed, it was because of Caleb that he had agreed to those requests. But now…
Seeing him waver, Nidya continued, “Why not hold a joint birthday banquet for both girls? But the guests will be divided into two venues. At a glance, who can bring greater benefits to the Campbell family.”
If the girls’ birthday parties are separate, the guests can choose only one, more important person to attend. This is indeed a good solution.
Jeremy reluctantly agreed, “Fine, let’s do it this way. If Xaviera turns out to be better, you have to think about the bigger picture and stop causing trouble. Let Xaviera return as Miss Campbell.”
Anna remained silent, a hint of coldness in her eyes.
When she returned to her room, Anna called a few people over to her house as guests.
Upon hearing that the Campbell family was going to hold a birthday party for both girls, Sara Wendleton yelled, “Xaviera deserves to celebrate her birthday with you? You’ve been celebrating your birthday for so many years. Why should she be able to step in now?”
