Chapter 1583: Chapter 1583: The Sudden Investment

Sean Price hesitated and asked, “President, are you sure you want to invest in the Powell Group?”

Caleb Mamet calmly replied, “Send someone to talk to Jacob Powell.”

From his response, Sean knew Caleb’s mind was made up, and nothing anyone said would change it. “Understood! I’ll arrange it right away.”

Julius Powell had invested 800 million dollars, demanding the Powell family to compensate 4.8 billion dollars. Now Mr. Frie was making a move again…

The Powell family might end up emptying their coffers, leaving only an empty shell behind!

At this moment, Jacob was gathering evidence, planning to sue Xaviera. He didn’t want to take it this far, but the sight of Quinn’s tear-streaked face fueled his determination.

Furthermore, Quinn needed a blood transfusion. His only chance to obtain Xaviera’s blood was to send her to prison. He already had the evidence in hand, and success was a must this time.

“Mr. Powell.”

One of the top executives came in excitedly, unable to hide the joy on his face, “Mr. Powell! The Skyeye Venture Group wants to cooperate with us! They said Mr. Frie is very interested in Miss Powell’s perfume!”

Jacob froze for a few seconds before jumping to his feet.

Mr. Frie?

The executive continued excitedly, “I never thought Miss Powell would have such a talented nose for fragrances. Skyeye Venture’s Mr. Frie is actually interested in her perfume. She definitely didn’t plagiarize, those were all rumors!”

After a long silence, Jacob finally reacted, his joy evident. Without the slightest hesitation, he hurriedly went to meet them.

After the discussions, both parties quickly signed an agreement. Executives and shareholders praised, “Miss Powell truly is our lucky star! Skyeye Venture’s people didn’t make any other requests, directly investing such a large sum of money. This shows that Mr. Frie trusts Miss Powell very much. As long as Miss Powell wins the championship, our Powell Group’s perfume will definitely be renowned internationally!”

Jacob sat down, his mind blank. It all felt so unreal, like a dream. Just a day ago, Quinn was at the center of controversy, but now so many people wanted to invest in the Powell Group.

Quinn must be outstanding to have attracted so much investment. However, he felt uneasy in his heart. The people from Skyeye Venture had no requests, only offering to invest in the Powell Group, which made Jacob think there was another reason behind it.

But the Powell Group and Skyeye Venture had no interactions and no grudges, so there was no need for this, right?

Jacob took a deep breath, possibly because he had too many troubles recently. Suddenly, when good fortune came knocking, he found himself unsure how to react.

…

On the day before the fragrance competition finals, Jacob sat in his study, staring blankly at the evidence on the table, his expression complicated.

He also didn’t want to treat Xaviera like this, but she was way out of line. If she had agreed to donate blood to Quinn, he wouldn’t have had to resort to such means. Besides, it was Xaviera’s fault for slandering Quinn and damaging her reputation, so she should pay for her actions.

With the Powell family’s power, it was possible to sue Xaviera and put her in prison. Defamation was not a serious crime, but with Caleb Mamet protecting her, if this charge wasn’t enough to imprison Xaviera, there was still the matter from five years ago when Xaviera deliberately pushed Quinn, causing her to fall from a building and almost become disabled. Either way, this time…

“Brother!” At that moment, Quinn pushed open the door, her round eyes filled with worry as she looked at him. “Brother, I know you’re doing this for me, but as for Xaviera…”

Jacob’s face darkened as he said sternly, “We’ve come this far, and you’re still speaking up for her. She’s bullied you time and time again, almost ruining you this time. If we don’t punish her, she won’t change.”

Quinn approached and softly advised, “Brother, if you really want to punish Xaviera, could you wait until after the finals? You know how much she loves perfume making. She’s already in the final round, and if you sue her now, she won’t be able to compete. Even if we issue an apology letter later, she probably won’t have this opportunity again. This might be Xaviera’s only chance to compete. Brother, can you wait until after the competition to address this matter?”

Jacob’s eyes instantly softened.

Why was Quinn so kind-hearted? In order for Xaviera to compete, she was willing to bear this for herself. She always considered Xaviera’s feelings, but Xaviera was unwilling to save Quinn.

After hearing her words, the bit of hesitation in Jacob’s mind vanished. He realized that this was too cruel for Xaviera, but some things inevitably required sacrifices. As a member of the Powell family, Xaviera had the duty to do so, and this was a responsibility she had to bear.
