Chapter 539: Chapter 539: President Gu Suddenly Freaks Out
“Come with me.” The man said indifferently, his deep voice filled with pressure. The entire villa seemed to be filled with a chilling atmosphere.
Xaviera Evans frowned, not understanding why.
What’s wrong? When they got into the car just now, everything was fine. Why did he suddenly become unhappy?
Entering the bedroom, Caleb Mamet casually threw his coat, sat on the sofa, loosened his collar, revealing his well-defined collarbone, his face cold and serious.
“When I asked you earlier how you’d deal with the Campbell family, you said you were weak and timid, and you wouldn’t go against them, right?”
Xaviera’s mouth twitched slightly. This was the conversation between her and Caleb when they were lying in bed last night. At that time, she had been trying to maintain her weak and delicate facade, so she had said a few nonsense, and then the next day, she’d beaten up Anna Campbell.
Xaviera felt somewhat guilty, “I did say that, but Anna kept provoking me. So, I just taught her a lesson and told her not to mess with me again. How can you blame me? I’m always weak and timid. If it wasn’t for Anna’s scheme to set me up, why would I fight her?”
Caleb scoffed, “Weak? Timid? You can really say that with a straight face.”
Xaviera didn’t expect him to mock her, and her eyes widened, “Are you mocking me? Are you taking Anna’s side?”
Caleb’s expression remained indifferent, “Mrs. Mamet, is your head just there to make you look taller? Don’t make me think I’ve married an idiot.”
Xaviera: “…”
What’s wrong with this jerk, huh?
Xaviera felt a tinge of sourness in her heart. She only slapped Anna a few times, and it was Anna who provoked her first. She had offered to handle the matter herself, but Caleb insisted on going with her.
Seeing her beat up Anna, this jerk became unhappy.
Anger and grievance surged within her, and Xaviera’s eyes filled with tears.
She didn’t care how much the Campbell family favored Anna, but she would not allow Caleb to be biased too. Caleb was her senior fellow, and they had known each other for ten years.
Caleb took a deep breath, “To avoid being framed by Anna, you had Mrs. Flack remove all the surveillance equipment, so no matter what you do, no one will know. But have you ever thought that if Anna dared to go to such a remote place alone with you, wouldn’t she have some sort of backup plan?”
“You were too bold, thinking that Anna couldn’t beat you, but are you so sure she didn’t have help?”
Xaviera looked up suddenly.
“Anna is stupid and was calculated by you, but you already knew she hated you and invited you out with her with ill intentions. Yet you really dared to go out alone with her and even went to a secluded corner without surveillance. Mrs. Mamet! You are too bold!”
Xaviera was about to refute, but after listening to his words, she realized that Caleb was afraid for her safety, and her anger suddenly dissipated.
“I, I am very familiar with the Flack family’s courtyard. Even if Anna had help, I’m not afraid. I can run, they can’t catch me, and besides…”
Before she could finish speaking, warm lips pressed against her, interrupting her explanation.
Caleb’s eyes lowered, “Xaviera, don’t act recklessly like this again. Don’t go out alone with people like her. If anything happens to you, what am I supposed to do? Let Steve Price secretly follow you in the future, at least to ensure your safety.”
A warm current surged through Xaviera’s heart, realizing that this man had been upset all night because he was worried about her.
Xaviera wrapped her arms around his strong waist, coquettishly said, “Caleb, I love you so much!”
The man’s body trembled slightly, his hot palm landed on her back, slowly stroking her.
As Xaviera hugged the man’s waist, rubbing against his tight belly, she felt his abdominal muscles and suddenly remembered some lingering scenes.
That time at Maple House, she had touched Caleb’s waist, and then the man had tormented her all night like a madman, but she recovered her sense of taste the next day. Now, her taste has disappeared again for several days, is it time to…
It was a touching moment now, and she was having chaotic thoughts, thinking about that kind of thing. It was really improper.
But this man’s body was so tempting that she couldn’t control her own thoughts, and her eyes became increasingly bewildered.
