Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband

Chapter 594: Open and Hidden Attacks

Anna Campbell looked dejected, “Actually, it’s her birthday too…”

At this moment, Adrian Campbell came down from upstairs. As soon as he heard Xaviera Evans’ name, he immediately erupted, “Anna! As long as I’m here, Xaviera’s birthday banquet will be deserted. I’ll invite all my friends to attend your birthday party instead.”

Adrian was just released today, looking considerably haggard. Having been accustomed to a life of luxury, his days in the police station had left him with pent-up resentment.

Anna gave a bitter smile, “Brother, but she is your sister.”

“Nonsense! I only have one sister, you!”

Zoe Campbell thought of how Xaviera had stolen her clothes, bullied Anna, and angered Adrian. With a sudden turn of her eyes, she said, “Anna, Adrian, I have an idea to ruin Xaviera.”

Adrian’s face turned cold, “Let’s hear it.”

Zoe whispered her idea, and Adrian’s eyes shimmered from satisfaction to excitement, before bursting into laughter.

Sara Wendleton also beamed, “Great! This is a good idea! Xaviera will surely lose face. What qualifications will she have to be the Campbell family’s daughter then?”

Anna lowered her eyes and remained silent, a hint of danger flickering in her gaze.

Seeing that the idea was Zoe’s, if it were to be exposed in the future, there would be a scapegoat. Anna would not have to worry about it herself.

“Brother, isn’t this going too far? After all, Xaviera is our parents’…” Anna frowned, feigning kindness.

Adrian found his sister’s manner even more lovable, especially in contrast to Xaviera, who dared to bully such a wonderful person as Anna. He scoffed, “She’s not a member of the Campbell family! She has nothing to do with us! If she dares to bully you, she has to face the consequences!”

Sara chimed in, “Adrian is right. She took your room, and now she wants to steal your identity. What’s there for you to feel sorry about? You’re a kind person, so don’t worry. This is not your doing, so you don’t have to feel guilty!”

Seeing everyone’s stubborn expressions, Anna reluctantly nodded her head.

…

At this moment, not far from the villa’s entrance, two tall men stood with grim expressions on their faces.

Elijah Flack sneered, “So these are Xaviera’s family members!”

There were many bodyguards and guards at the door of the Campbell residence. Ordinary people certainly wouldn’t be able to get in. However, these two men had appeared silently outside the door, composed and calm, showing no fear even when the bodyguards were not far away.

Elijah glanced at the emotionless man beside him, raising an eyebrow, “Second brother, Xaviera is being bullied and you show no reaction.”

The man wore a black suit, with a sharper and colder gaze than Caleb Mamet’s. An aura of hostility emanated from him, and his thin lips seemed stained with a bloodthirsty killing intent, completely different from Elijah’s calm and warm demeanor.

He nonchalantly said, “Let’s kill them, then.”

His tone was so indifferent, as if he was not talking about killing, but as if he’d just had a meal.

Elijah didn’t bat an eyelid, “There’s no need to go that far. After all, these people are related to Xaviera by blood. Moreover, there’s been some trouble lately. If Anna and Adrian suddenly died, it wouldn’t be a good thing for Xaviera. Little Second, don’t always think about killing.”

Quine Heninger furrowed his brows, “Don’t call me Little Second.”

Elijah chuckled, “The Campbell family wants to harm Xaviera right under our noses. They’re really tired of living. Destroying the Campbells would be as easy for us as crushing ants.”

Quine also thought so, but destroying the Campbells would have an impact on Xaviera’s reputation. It wasn’t worth it.

Elijah said, “Xaviera has a kind heart and doesn’t like killing. She only wants to know why her mother, Nina Hughes, had died so mysteriously back then. It’s not just Rose Campbell who did it, but Nidya should also be involved. They can’t die before the truth comes to light.”

After a moment of silence, Elijah’s voice suddenly grew colder, “Now, Xaviera doesn’t need to return to the Campbell family. Going back and facing those people every day would only annoy her. She doesn’t know how many hidden threats she’d have to face, so the Campbells have given us an opportunity, which we must seize.”

Quine looked at him with a meaningful gaze, then furrowed his brows, “I understand.”
