Jacob Powell stared blankly at where Xaviera had been standing, her words still ringing in his ears. He and his father had finally found his sister, but were they going to be separated again?
But he... he didn't mean to eliminate Xaviera from the competition. He only cared about Quinn and wanted her to live a fulfilling life within her lifetime. He didn't know Xaviera was participating in the competition, let alone becoming Quinn's opponent.
If he could do it all over again, he would arrange for them to compete separately so they could both advance. After all, Xaviera was his sister, and of course he cared for her too.
Quinn hung her head, lips pressed tightly together. When Xaviera left earlier, she had glanced back at her with cold, piercing eyes that carried a heavy touch of mockery. This made Quinn feel uneasy.
What was Xaviera going to do? Was she going to expose what happened?
