And so, the two began a tragic play over the phone: “Mrs. Mamet! Mr. Caleb Mamet was already injured, and now he’s been beaten up severely by the chairman! The chairman doesn’t want to let him go. Please come and see him!”
The crowd then saw Xaviera’s body suddenly go limp, almost falling to the ground as her tears burst forth.
Crying with grievance, she rushed like she was facing a life-or-death separation, as if she wanted to see her husband for the last time.
At the moment, there was a group of businessmen at the Mamet home discussing business deals, and they couldn’t help but be surprised when they heard Xaviera’s cries: “Did I hear that wrong? The president of the Mamet Group was asked by the chairman to give that piece of land to Boyd Drew?”
“Everyone knows that if they give up that land, all previous investments by the Mamet Corporation would be wasted! How could Mr. Caleb Mamet, as the president of the Mamet Corporation, do something harmful to the company’s interests?”
“Mr. Caleb Mamet refused, and the chairman actually beat him? Isn’t that too much? The Mamet family’s current success was all established by Mr. Caleb Mamet. Everything in the Mamet family, apart from the old mansion, is his doing!”
Everyone exchanged glances and remained silent, their hearts churning with turmoil.
Xaviera rushed into the mansion and headed straight for Caleb’s room, bursting into tears as she pushed open the door.
“Husband! How are you? It’s all my fault! I should have been with you! How could I have let you suffer such a beating alone? Does it hurt? Wuu wuu wuu…”
Caleb had just lain down when Xaviera barged in, causing him to cough a few times.
Although Xaviera was pretending, it still hurt her to see Caleb injured, “You’re bleeding, it must be so painful! Sean Price, hurry up and apply medicine to Caleb! Wuu wuu wuu…”
Sean Price:
Caleb twitched at the corner of his mouth, “Don’t cry anymore.”
As Page Uland had said, their family’s Xaviera was a natural actress who could not help but perform when given the opportunity. Caleb had only suffered a minor injury, but with Xaviera crying like that, it seemed as if he was going to die.
Xaviera raised her eyes, which were filled with tears, “Husband, I feel so sorry for you~”
Caleb closed his eyes and took a deep breath, “Mrs. Mamet, if I were really seriously injured, your rush just now might have made me cough up blood!”
Xaviera paused for a moment before nodding vigorously, “You’re right! Coughing up blood would have been an even better effect!”
Caleb: Sigh! Mrs. Mamet had gone mad.
After crying, Xaviera said aggrievedly, “Caleb, I rushed over as soon as I heard you were injured. You see how much I care about you!”
Caleb replied casually, “Mhm.”
“I was running and crying, and I almost fell! It exhausted me!”
Caleb responded indifferently, “It only takes about ten minutes to walk from the Mamet family’s living room to this room. Were you crying the whole way?”
Xaviera choked up and her face flushed, “I was just worried about you! Running and crying ended up with me getting lost on the way and delayed for a while. I was so out of breath!”
Lying in bed, Caleb nonchalantly replied, “If you’d been a little later, my wounds would have healed. Mrs. Mamet, there’s no need to try so hard in acting.”
Xaviera pouted her lips and quickly changed the subject, “Caleb, are you still in pain?”
Caleb glanced at her indifferently, “What do you think? Mrs. Mamet, I think it’s necessary to remind you that both my chest and back are injured. If you don’t want to give us away, please get off me, alright?”
Embarrassed, Xaviera smiled and got off him, almost forgetting Caleb was still pretending to be injured. She took the opportunity to touch his strong chest.
Caleb took a sharp breath, closing his eyes and ignoring her.
After a while, footsteps approached from outside the door.
Xaviera’s eyes grew dark; the only people who could come to Caleb’s room were probably the Mamet family members, or their distinguished guests.
When she was in the living room just now, she did not see Mrs. Mamet, neither did she see the Drew family. Therefore, Xaviera guessed that Jenny Green and the Drew family were together, so the footsteps outside belonged to them.
At that moment, the door was pushed open, and Mrs. Mamet walked in with Boyd Drew and Yvette Flack following behind her.
