Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband - Chapter 551
Chapter 551: Chapter 551: Xaviera Evans Poisoned
Caleb Mamet turned his head to look at her, his gaze deep and mysterious, “However, I know that you’re sure about what you have agreed to do. Go ahead and do what you want. Even if you lose a 5% stake, I won’t blame you. After all, I will reclaim the stocks anyway.”
Xaviera Evans giggled prettily, about to say something, but she felt a sudden numbing sensation in her heart.
She frowned. She almost forgot about this matter.
Yigol Mamet saw her frowning and was about to ask her what happened, but then he heard her lazily say, “I’ve been poisoned.”
Silence fell instantly.
Yigol Mamet’s eyes flew wide open.
Yigol Mamet’s gaze turned cold and his voice became agitated, “What happened?”
Xaviera Evans lifted her hand, there was a red spot on the back of her hand and her wrist veins turned somewhat black. Yet, she said nonchalantly, “This poison is colorless and tasteless. Once it gets into the blood, just a touch is enough to poison you. Within seven days, the poison will activate, and you will bleed to death from all orifices.”
Xaviera Evans took out a silver needle from her bag, pricking her fingertip. The needle turned black after making contact with her blood.
The faces of the Mamet brothers changed instantly.
The usually calm Caleb Mamet trembled all over, his body emanating a towering rage. He gnashed his teeth and roared, “Zara Woods!”
Xaviera Evans held the silver needle between her fingertips, arching a disdainful eyebrow, “Where did Zara Woods get this poison from? I think this poison is too vicious, so I’ve destroyed it long ago. Even with money, it should be impossible to get a hold of. She’s got some connections.”
Caleb Mamet immediately bent down, wrapped his arms around Xaviera Evans’ waist, lifted her sideways, and strode out.
Xaviera Evans fell into a warm embrace, holding Caleb Mamet’s neck tightly. She blinked, “Caleb, how did it occur to Zara Woods to poison me?”
Caleb Mamet looked at her coldly, outsiders wouldn’t know that she was invulnerable to poison.
It was Page Uland who had told him about this, otherwise he, as her husband, would be none the wiser.
Xaviera Evans’ blood can detoxificate, so no poison had any effect on her. Furthermore, any poison that entered her body would gradually disappear with metabolism.
Caleb Mamet knew that she would not be poisoned, but knowing that someone had poisoned her, he could not hold back his anger, wishing he could hack Zara Woods to pieces.
Seeing the icy look in Caleb Mamet’s eyes, Xaviera Evans knew that Zara Woods was going to meet a miserable end.
Caleb Mamet smirked coldly, then looked tenderly at Xaviera Evans, “Did you develop this poison?”
Xaviera Evans didn’t understand Caleb Mamet’s meaning and obediently nodded, “Yes, Albert and I found a poisonous mushroom in the mountains. When we tried to extract its toxins, we accidentally developed this poison. Since the poison is colorless and tasteless and very toxic, there is almost no cure for the poisoned person. The process of poisoning is extremely painful, and the death is tragic.”
“If this poison spreads, it will have a very adverse effect, so I destroyed it immediately. I don’t know where Zara Woods got this medicine from.”
Caleb Mamet remained silent. He had been too benevolent towards Zara Woods and should have been more ruthless with such people. Killing her outright would be letting her off easy.
Caleb Mamet’s face remained blank, but he knew what rage he was suppressing in his heart. Facing Xaviera Evans, he still spoke with a gentle tone, “Do you still have that poison on you?”
Xaviera Evans didn’t see anything wrong and answered truthfully, “It was all destroyed, but if you want, I can extract some from my blood now.”
“Good.” The man’s gaze was cold, and the corner of his mouth hooked up into a chilly smile.
Xaviera Evans looked at him, puzzled, what did he want the poison for?
She snuggled in Caleb Mamet’s arms, her gaze fixed on the silver needle, and sneered, “Zara Woods used the poison I developed to harm me. How interesting!”
After a moment, Xaviera Evans suddenly looked up, wondering, “You, you knew that I developed the poison, and you’re not surprised? Actually, that, that poison was developed by Albert, I was just assisting him.”
Caleb Mamet raised his brow.
“Mrs. Mamet, trying to keep up appearances of weakness now, isn’t it a bit too late?”
Xaviera Evans was taken aback, suddenly feeling as if she were having heart attack.
