Chapter 100: Chapter 100: Taking Action Against the Evans Family
Translator: 549690339
Xaviera had long heard that the Mamet family had always been discordant, and many people were not convinced and secretly tried to trip up Caleb, a ‘bastard’ who had become the head of the Mamet family.
They urged Caleb to get married, probably hoping to take this opportunity to shove someone close to him, but they didn’t expect it to be disrupted by her, an unexpected outsider.
From this, it can be inferred that when she returned to the Mamet family with him, she would be met by many difficulties, not to mention the fact that she would also have to play the part of a loving couple with him…
Xaviera’s eyes flickered as she weighed the pros and cons of the situation. Giving up a delicious meal would give her peace for a long time, but – these were things she would have to face sooner or later. It was just a matter of facing them earlier, and she could even get an extra meal out of it, so it was a win-win!
With that in mind, Xaviera grinned: “What you just said is wrong; I am your wife, so isn’t it right for me to go back to the Mamet family with you to meet our parents?”
Caleb snorted with laughter.
Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, Xaviera quickly planted a kiss on his lips and then dashed to find the butler to arrange the food and bring all the things she had brought back!
In no time at all, the gourmet dishes David Beckman had prepared were laid out on the dining table, and Xaviera couldn’t wait to dig in with her knife and fork. It had to be said that David deserved his reputation as a world-class chef his skills were extraordinary!
She ate with gusto, while Caleb rolled his eyes at her foolish appearance. In between Xaviera’s enjoyment of the food, he instructed the butler: “Keep a closer eye on the Coriell family’s recent movements.”
If the Coriell family were willing to come and apologize obediently, he could let bygones be bygones. But if they refused to apologize, they couldn’t blame him for being heartless.
The Coriell family.
Vita Coriell was forcibly escorted home by her bodyguards, and before Mrs. Coriell had a chance to comfort her, Sir Coriell returned with a slap: “Stop crying and go to the Mamet family to apologize to Xaviera right now!”
When Vita realized what had happened, she broke down in tears: “You hit me, Grandpa, are you also hitting me for that bitch Xaviera? I won’t apologize, why should I apologize!”
“You don’t have a say in this matter. If you want to remain Miss Coriell, go to the Mamet family and apologize to Xaviera honestly.” Sir Coriell coldly ordered, “You must go to the Mamet family to apologize by tomorrow at the latest! The Coriell family cannot be destroyed because of you alone.” With that, he ignored the sobbing Vita and walked away.
Mrs. Coriell’s tears fell like rain as she complained to Boris Coriell: “What’s going on with Father? Hasn’t this matter already passed? Why is he still pushing Vita to apologize to Xaviera?”
Boris didn’t understand Sir Coriell’s actions either, frowning, “Let’s do as Sir says for now, and just casually give an insincere apology.”
After all, the Coriell family was still under the control of Sir Coriell, and he didn’t dare openly oppose his orders.
Upon hearing that she still had to apologize, Vita threw a tantrum, crying hysterically: “I won’t, I won’t apologize to Xaviera! Xaviera is a bitch and will eventually be abandoned by Caleb. I won’t apologize to a bitch. How can I live with myself if this gets out?”
Mrs. Coriell chimed in, “That’s right, our Vita is of noble status, why should she apologize to a woman from the countryside? If she apologizes, how can the Coriell family have a face in Libanan? Outsiders will definitely gossip about us. Boris, can you think of a solution?”
Boris squinted in thought: “I have some connections with Derek Evans, and the Evans family has a project coming up that relies on our family. How about I go and talk to Derek and let him discipline his daughter?”
“Right! This is a good idea – if Xaviera dares to offend us, we’ll make the Evans family’s project suffer losses. I’ve heard that Derek doesn’t even like his eldest daughter in the first place. So, if the project suffers a big loss because of Xaviera, he’ll be furious.” Mrs. Coriell enthusiastically thought Boris’s suggestion was great.
So what if Xaviera had married Caleb? She would always be Derek Evans’s daughter, and in this world, it was perfectly normal for a father to discipline his daughter.
Vita added, “We need to make our stance clear — it’s because of Xaviera that we’re not cooperating with the Evans family. And we must spread the word that none of the companies on good terms with our Coriell family are allowed to cooperate with the Evans family! This way, Derek will hate Xaviera even more!”
Early the next morning, Xaviera suddenly received a phone call from Derek Evans: “Xaviera, get your ass to the company now! The project we had talked about with the Coriell family has fallen through because of something you did, and many other partners have suddenly said they won’t cooperate either! Do you know how much our Evans family has lost? Get over here now and apologize to Miss Coriell!”
Xaviera narrowed her eyes: “What does your Evans family’s problem have to do with me?”
Derek didn’t expect her to dare to talk to him this way, but in order to get Xaviera over quickly, he said coldly, “Fine, if you don’t recognize me as your father, what about your little uncle? If you’re not at the company within half an hour, I’ll kick him out of the house!”
