Chapter 1546: Chapter 1546: You Are Just An Outsider Chapter 1546: Chapter 1546: You Are Just An Outsider As soon as the word “murder” was mentioned, everyone gasped and looked at Xaviera Evans in shock. Pushing someone into the water during a Mamet family banquet, Mrs. Mamet’s actions were too bold!

By now, Quinn Powell was soaking wet, leaving a long trail of water on the ground, looking quite miserable. It didn’t seem like she was being falsely accused. Besides, if she was indeed slandering Xaviera, her reputation would be worse than ever after the Mamet family learned the truth. Therefore, it was probably true.

Everyone’s gaze towards Xaviera was filled with doubt.

Quinn’s tears couldn’t stop flowing; her body trembled slightly, like a delicate white flower standing in the wind and rain. “Mrs. Mamet, granted that you’re of esteemed status, but today is the Mamet family’s banquet after all. You pushed me into the water regardless of the occasion; you must apologize to me, or I’ll call the police!”

As soon as the threat of calling the police was uttered, the scene became noisy.

They were all well-known figures in Libanan, and having the police arrive at a banquet they were attending would be embarrassing.

Caleb Mamet cast a disinterested glance at Quinn, his eyes cold and sharp, making her shudder uncontrollably. She quickly lowered her eyes. Since she had publicly accused Xaviera, she had to stick to her story. And after all, Xaviera pushing her into the water was a fact – Quinn hadn’t falsely accused her!

Quinn raised her voice slightly, questioning, “Mrs. Mamet, was it not enough that you boldly pushed me into the water? Can’t I even get an apology? There may have been some misunderstandings between us, but I’ve apologized and humbled myself in seeking reconciliation. You almost killed me! Is this how the wife of the Mamet family should act? If you behave so outrageously at a Mamet family banquet, I can hardly imagine how you’ll treat me in the future! Moreover, if you dare to treat me like this today, you’ll surely harm others in the future!”

Though none of the guests opened their mouths, their eyes revealed agreement, and their gazes towards Xaviera were filled with disdain.

Quinn’s words were sharp. Mrs. Mamet’s actions during the Mamet family banquet were too outrageous, leaving the possibility that she would do the same to someone else who crossed her.

Under everyone’s unusual gaze, Mr. Yigol Mamet broke the silence: “Miss Powell, on what grounds do you question Xaviera? Don’t you know what you’ve done?”

“At the Mamet family banquet, you’re an outsider, while Xaviera is the hostess. Don’t brag about how considerate you are of the Mamet family in front of her – it’s disgusting!”

Yigol’s words left everyone present wide-eyed, not understanding what he meant.

Show off in front of Xaviera?

Quinn, however, understood Yigol’s intention. A touch of panic flashed through her eyes before she tearfully retorted, “Mr. Mamet, when did I show off? You can’t falsely accuse me in public just to exonerate Mrs. Mamet! Even if I did say something, Mrs. Mamet shouldn’t have pushed me into the water! Wearing such a long skirt and unable to swim, I nearly drowned – Mrs. Mamet must have been trying to kill me!”

Yigol looked at her with disdain. How could the Powell family have raised such a scheming woman?

Maybe Quinn thought she was putting on a great performance, pitiful and sympathetic, but Yigol saw right through her. Quinn’s eyes were full of hatred and resentment. She didn’t want an apology – she wanted to destroy Xaviera!

Just then, Caleb Mamet suddenly turned to Quinn. His deep voice was filled with authority: “Miss Powell, did you forget what you said so quickly?”

Quinn trembled all over as she met Caleb’s gaze. She was struggling to understand why a man of Caleb’s wealth and power would stubbornly cling to Xaviera when he could have any woman he desired.

Quinn was clearly superior to Xaviera in every way – the entire Powell family adored her. Moreover, a domineering man like Caleb needed a gentle and considerate companion, not a woman like Xaviera who only brought trouble.

Yet why was Caleb so determined to protect Xaviera, even at the cost of offending the Powell family?

Quinn remained silent for a long time before gritting her teeth and saying, “Mr. Mamet, I know you adore Mrs. Mamet and will stand by her. But it’s her who pushed me into the water now. Why are you and Mr. Yigol Mamet making things difficult for me?”

After Quinn finished speaking, her tears gushed out like a floodgate had been opened. Her voice was filled with grievance: “Mrs. Mamet is of such esteemed status that I dare not offend her, but I just want an apology. Is that really too much to ask?”
