Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband

Chapter 562: Chapter 562: Killing Her Would Only Be Doing Her a Favor

“Yes, Zara was in the wrong, but she did genuinely love Caleb. Miss Evans, you are also a woman, you should understand the impulse she made to act irrationally for the one she loves. The Woods family and the Mamet family have had good relations for many years. Given that you are Caleb’s wife, perhaps it would be better to let this matter lie, for the sake of your own reputation.”

Boyd Drew couldn’t help but laugh.

Xaviera Evans knew clearly that Will Mamet was worried that if Zara Woods were to be jailed, Boyd Drew would also be implicated, considering they were birds of a feather.

But she did not expect the Woods family and Will Mamet to be so brazen, actually requesting her to drop the issue in public.

“Mr. Mamet, you really are a good uncle! Miss Woods is charged with hiring a hitman to commit murder. And yet you’re telling me not to pursue it? It seems in your eyes, such a heinous crime can be forgiven.”

At this remark, everyone took a step back, looking at Zara Woods with disdain.

In order to marry Caleb and to become Mrs. Mamet, Zara Woods stooped so low as to hire someone to murder. They needed to distance themselves from such a ruthless woman.

Mrs. Woods’ face softened a bit, seeing as Will Mamet stepped in, it should mean that Zara would be alright. So, she became audacious, “Xaviera, do you have any grievances? No matter what, Zara is still Mr. Caleb Mamet’s friend. Besides, you’re perfectly fine standing right here without any harm done to you. What more do you want?”

Xaviera couldn’t help but laugh at this.

“What are you laughing at?! You can’t really intend to call the police and let Zara be jailed, can you?” snorted Mrs. Woods.

Everyone had already known that the Woods family were thick-skinned, but everyone present was still astonished at this moment.

Zara Woods hired someone to murder, and yet Mrs. Woods still has the audacity to behave this way. Shouldn’t she be on her knees, begging Xaviera for forgiveness at this point?

Just as Xaviera was about to retort, Caleb beat her to it: “Right, no need to call the police.”

Upon hearing this, the Woods family immediately broke into smiles. After all, if Mr. Caleb Mamet had spoken, then regardless of how Xaviera felt, it was useless.

Even though the Woods family’s business was gone now, as long as they were still connected to the Mamet family, they still had a chance to rise again.

Just when the Woods family heaved a sigh of relief, Caleb curled his lips, waved to the people behind him, and nonchalantly said, “Take her away!”

Will Mamet’s heart skipped a beat, and he hastily tried to stop Caleb, “Caleb, don’t cause trouble!”

“This is a small matter. I can handle it myself. We don’t need to bother the police.” Caleb smiled faintly, but the joy in his smile didn’t reach his eyes, carrying a trace of coldness, “Sean Price.”

Upon hearing this, Sean Price nodded and ordered the bodyguards, who rushed in and surrounded the banquet hall.

Will Mamet was furious, “Caleb! What the hell are you doing!”

The guards of the Mamet Old Mansion were originally under his control. Now, they all obeyed Caleb’s orders. With one command from Caleb, they all took action.

Caleb’s eyes were cold. “Father, everyone knows that I dote on Mrs. Mamet. If someone tries to hurt her, I definitely won’t let it go!”

The guests in the banquet hall were in a panicked state as they watched Sean Price haul the Woods family members out.

Everyone knew that Caleb was bold and reckless, but they didn’t expect him to blatantly take the Woods family away in front of everyone. Were they planning to administer their own form of justice?

If the Woods family members were to die, Caleb would undeniably be implicated.

Caleb maintained his composure yet his eyes were filled with fiery anger. His beloved wife, whom he cherishes so dearly, had almost been killed by these people. He will make anybody who tries to harm her pay a heavy price.

“Zara Woods hurting… Mrs. Mamet was all her own doing! Killing her would actually be letting her off easy!”

At this moment, Zara Woods, being pushed out of the room, was trembling with fear. After hearing this, she vomited blood and fainted.

Everyone gasped. Will Mamet’s face turned dark with fury, but he still couldn’t stop what Caleb was doing.

“Father.”

Caleb suddenly spoke, slowly turning around, his tone light, “I hope you can keep your schemes contained. Don’t let your son provoke me again. If he does, he’ll be facing the same fate as Zara Woods!”

Will Mamet gasped.

Boyd Drew squinted his eyes, his gaze turning menacing.
