Chapter 596: Chapter 596: The Outcome of Who Wins and Loses Has Already Been Decided

“And the Mamet family also said that they won’t allow anyone from the Mamet family to get involved; obviously, they don’t want you to rely on Caleb’s identity. I bet they’re all gathering together, waiting to see you make a fool of yourself!”

Xaviera Evans smiled faintly, “Don’t worry.”

The Campbell family thought that without Caleb by her side, Xaviera would have no friends or family left. Little did they know, she had more than one ally!

…

At this time, families closely connected to the Campbell family received invitations from them. The birthday banquets of the two daughters would take place on the same day but in separate venues, and everyone had to choose one to attend.

Anyone with a discerning eye would understand that attending one daughter’s birthday banquet meant taking her side. If one were to attend Xaviera’s banquet, there would be no chance of maintaining ties with the Campbell family once Anna Campbell took over.

Although aristocratic families valued bloodlines and succession, the Campbell family was different because they already had an heir, Adrian Campbell. It didn’t matter which daughter was biologically related; what mattered was which daughter the Campbell couple liked more.

Comparing Anna and Xaviera, it goes without saying.

The head of the Salma family received the invitation and said after a moment of silence, “We should attend Anna’s birthday banquet, but we should also send Xaviera a gift to avoid offending her.”

Madam Salma was puzzled, “Isn’t it said that Xaviera is the biological daughter?”

“It doesn’t matter who the biological daughter is; the Campbell couple favors Anna and wants to promote their adopted daughter. That so-called biological daughter does not stand a chance. Attending her birthday banquet will not benefit us; we just need to focus on Anna.”

At the Hatlen family’s residence,

Mrs. Hatlen sat on the sofa and said to Mr. Tangi, “I think the birthday banquets held by the Campbell family is like setting up a competition between their two daughters. Whoever can bring more benefits to the Campbell family will be eligible to become Miss Campbell.”

“Today, Mrs. Campbell called me early in the morning, asking me to attend Anna’s birthday banquet. Since she said it herself, how could I refuse her? I thought the Campbell couple would stay out of this matter, considering one is their biological daughter and the other is their adopted daughter who they have lived with for over twenty years. But they actually helped their adopted daughter over their own; I think Xaviera will be losing face this time.”

Mr. Hatlen said, “You’re right; we should go to Anna’s side. Even though she is an adopted daughter, the Campbell couple still likes her. Their family affairs have nothing to do with us; we only need to choose the most powerful side.”

At the same time, Adrian Campbell invited a bunch of unreliable friends for a meal and loudly declared, “If you are my friends, all of you must attend Anna’s birthday banquet. Whoever goes to Xaviera’s side will be considered as slapping me in the face, and we will not associate in the future!”

Sara Wendleton and Zoe Campbell also talked to their close friends with disdain, “Xaviera is just a wild girl; everyone in the Campbell family hates her. Even if she enters the Campbell family, Anna will still be Miss Campbell. She can’t compete.”

With such a situation, the outcome seemed to have been decided already.

…

Two days later, on the day of the birthday banquets,

Early in the morning, Jeremy Campbell sent someone to pick up Xaviera and even brought a makeup artist to dress her up.

“The Campbell family is finally generous for once, preparing a decent outfit for you. It seems they’re afraid of others gossiping, so they pretend to treat you equally on the surface.”

Caleb Mamet glanced at the outfit in the box and then asked Xaviera, “Is today really your birthday?”

Xaviera answered indifferently, “If the Campbell family says it’s today, then so be it. In the past, no one celebrated my birthday except for my mother. The date should be later than it is now; they probably deliberately changed it.”

Yigol Mamet was furious, “You’ve been back at the Campbell family for so many days, but the Campbell couple never cared about you; all they think about is how to use you to set off Anna. What a joke! You are their biological daughter! Who does Anna think she is? She has occupied your identity for so many years, and now she even wants to steal my brother away?”
