Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband - Chapter 522

Chapter 522: Chapter 522: The Flack Family Banquet

At this moment, the Flack family’s housekeeper Bronte walked towards them. Jeremy and Nidya knew that he worked for the Flack family for decades and was treated like family, so others dared not offend him.

Jeremy hurriedly greeted him with enthusiasm, “Hello, housekeeper Bronte.”

Housekeeper Bronte gave Xaviera a meaningful glance, then smiled slightly: “Mr. and Mrs. Campbell, please come in!”

Jeremy was instantly overjoyed, thinking that if housekeeper Bronte was so amicable to them, it meant that the Flack family valued the Campbell family very much.

Nidya and Anna also greeted him, but Xaviera stood quietly to the side without speaking.

Once housekeeper Bronte left, Nidya immediately scolded Xaviera in displeasure: “Xaviera! You really are impolite! You don’t even know how to greet people when you see them. Don’t tell anyone you’re my daughter when you go out. You’ve embarrassed us all!”

At that time, the guests began to come in one after another.

Anna immediately went to Xaviera and spoke softly: “Sister, don’t be angry with mom for saying these things. When attending a banquet, you must understand social etiquette. You probably haven’t attended a banquet before and don’t know these rules. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me. Don’t offend any other distinguished guests. Housekeeper Bronte is not just a servant in the Flack family; you have already offended him the moment you entered. You’re making mom and dad uncomfortable!”

Xaviera remained silent, and Anna continued: “Sister, although you haven’t learned these rules, you are still the daughter of the Campbell family after all. You’ll have to attend many banquets in the future, so you must try to adapt. Don’t lose your temper, alright?”

“You grew up in the countryside and surely haven’t experienced such scenes before. But this is the Flack family, not our own home. If you see anything you like, you must not take it without the host’s consent. Do you hear me?”

Although Anna’s voice was not loud, everyone could hear her clearly, causing them to whisper among themselves.

“The Campbell family said Xaviera offended housekeeper Bronte? Are they kidding?”

“They’ve really shot themselves in the foot this time. Who doesn’t know that Xaviera is the beloved jewel of the Flack family, and also Mr. Caleb Mamet’s wife? How dare their adopted daughter scold Miss Evans so openly? It’s simply overestimating themselves!”

“You see the Campbell family’s manner, they probably don’t know housekeeper Bronte condescending to greet them is all because of Xaviera’s presence. Without her, he wouldn’t even spare them a glance!”

“All the guests here know the relationship between Miss Evans and the Flack family, except for the Campbell Family. They are really stupid! Without Miss Evans, do they even deserve to attend the Flack family’s banquet?”

The Campbell family didn’t hear the guests’ whispers.

Jeremy furrowed his brow. “Anna, stop talking. I already warned your sister. She’s not a child anymore, she doesn’t need you to say it again.”

Anna immediately looked wronged. “Dad, it’s my fault. I thought sister had forgotten, so I reminded her once more. I… I’m just afraid she’ll do something wrong. I’m not… not scolding her, just reminding her.”

Nidya immediately sided with Anna, yelling at Jeremy: “What are you angry about? Anna is doing this for the sake of the Campbell family. It’s Xaviera who is impolite, not knowing how to greet people when she sees them. Anna is afraid she’ll embarrass the Campbell family, so she said a few more words. I told you not to bring this jinx to the banquet, but you insisted on taking her with us. How embarrassing!”

Jeremy looked up at Xaviera, his face impatient.

He couldn’t help but scoff, “I warned you before going out, and you’ve forgotten so soon? How can you be so foolish! You should learn from your sister Anna, see how she does things, and not disgrace our family!”

Jeremy lowered his voice: “Xaviera, don’t forget why you’re here today. Mr. Caleb Mamet is also at the Flack family’s house. Go find him now. I don’t care how you do it, but you have to make him agree to reconcile and release your brother.”

Xaviera slowly looked up, her thin lips parted slightly, “But… the banquet is about to begin. If I’m not there, then…”
