Chapter 622: Chapter 622: Mrs. Gu Pretends to be Weak
Suddenly, a shout echoed from the courtyard, followed by a delicate figure rushing out, holding an umbrella, appearing fragile as if the wind might carry her away.
Shock in her eyes, she exclaimed: “Mom! Sister! It’s raining so hard, why are you here? Why didn’t you bring an umbrella? Your clothes are drenched! It’s my fault I was asleep, causing you two to get caught in the rain. If I had known you were coming to see me, I would’ve arranged someone to pick you up!”
Anna Campbell choked in disbelief, looking at Xaviera Evans, who was crying like a flower in the rain.
How is this possible? How could Xaviera come out?
Xaviera anticipated Anna’s plot to manipulate the public to attack her, pressuring her to reconcile. However, she refused to fall for it, playing the weak and pitiful girl was her forte, and she was going to put on a display of a good, sensible daughter in the livestreaming room.
Moreover, before rushing to the door, Xaviera intentionally applied sickly makeup, which would not be washed away even in the rain. Right now, her whole face was pallid, and she exuded weakness through her eyes and brows.
Xaviera feigned surprise as she looked at the mother-daughter pair, her acting skills putting the best actor winner to shame.
Xaviera, in a soft and feeble voice, said: “I don’t care, I can’t let mom and sister get drenched in rain anymore. If I don’t greet them at the door, they would be angry. It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have fallen ill! You won’t blame me anymore will you? Please, come inside with me, okay?”
Suddenly, everyone in the streaming room was stunned.
[Does anyone else think that this real Campbell daughter seems quite gentle, and doesn’t seem intent on driving Anna Campbell away? She was pretty welcoming.]
[It’s so heartbreaking. The lost daughter finally found her biological parents, and she still has to be extra careful to please her family, fearing rejection. Even though she’s seriously ill, she still braved the heavy rain to welcome her mother and sister, afraid that Mrs. Campbell and Anna would blame her. How could such a poor girl possibly wish to drive Anna out of the Campbell house?]
[But if you think about it, no matter what, Anna did seize Xaviera’s identity and enjoyed everything that should have been Xaviera’s for twenty years, living with the Campbell family. Even if Xaviera were to return to the family, it would be difficult for her to fit in. If Anna isn’t asked to leave, Xaviera would find life difficult at the Campbell’s. It is therefore reasonable for her to ask for Anna’s departure.]
[I agree, although it’s not Anna’s fault, she did steal Xaviera’s identity and her family. It is right for her to leave, we can’t blame the real Miss Campbell for this!]
Watching the discussions in the streaming room, Anna’s eyes were filled with resentment.
This wretched woman had outsmarted her!
