Chapter 96 - 96: Just Simply Blocked
Caleb Mamet ignored him, directly focused on Sir Coriell: “Sir Coriell, it’s not that I deliberately want to spoil the Coriell family’s event. I just want to express my attitude. You should know, there are some things that I don’t have to get from the Coriell family.”
“Caleb, what do you mean?”
“If you do something wrong, you should apologize, right?”
Caleb tilted his head and showed a bloodthirsty smile: “Don’t forget, the person you bullied is Xaviera Evans, my acknowledged wife. Have you considered the consequences of offending the Mamet family?”
Clang…
Sir Coriell suddenly stood up from the chair, his aged body trembling constantly: “I, I understand, Caleb. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure Vita apologizes to your wife.”
Boris Coriell disagreed: “Dad, how can you…”
Caleb was just a junior in the family, so all these years, he treated Caleb like his own son-in-law, which made their conversations inevitably casual. He didn’t think there was much difference between the power of the Mamet family and the Coriell family. Now that Vita had been wronged and their event had been ruined, why should they apologize?
“Shut up! ”
Sir Coriell slammed his cane hard and then took a deep breath: “Caleb, don’t worry, I understand your request. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to this matter.”
Caleb didn’t bother him further. He casually stood up: “Alright, as long as you understand. By the way, you can transfer the ownership of this hotel now, as a punishment for your Coriell family offending my wife.”
Sir Coriell felt dizzy in front of his eyes. When Caleb’s figure walked away, he abruptly stood up: “Go home! Even if we have to escort her, we need to get Vita to apologize to Xaviera!”
After Caleb left, he found that the banquet hall was empty.
Steve Price was puzzled: “Where are our wives? Weren’t they all here just now?”
Mr. Caleb Mamet had finally exerted his dominance for once, gaining back his wife’s face. It was the right time to take credit in front of his wife, but she was nowhere to be found.
He thought about it and felt that he shouldn’t waste this opportunity so he suggested: “Mr. Caleb Mamet, you should call your wife!”
Although Caleb didn’t have the intention of taking credit, he took out his cell phone and dialed Xaviera’s number leisurely. Just as he promised her earlier, even without her intervention, he could handle the Coriell family. There was no need for her to go through all this trouble and be framed and mocked.
However, as the call went through, a mechanical female voice came through: “Hello, the number you dialed is currently in a call.”
Caleb frowned, in a call? Who was she talking to? He sent Xaviera a message, asking her to return a message after finishing the call, but he didn’t hear anything from Xaviera even after he got back in the car.
Staring silently at the phone for a while, he decided to try once more, but the line was still busy. From the hotel to the car, it had been about twenty minutes. How could one call last twenty minutes?
With a man or a woman?
Steve Price noticed that the atmosphere in the car was off, and he tentatively asked, “Mr. Caleb Mamet, can’t you get through to your wife’s phone? Do you want me to help you find out who she’s talking to?”
Caleb glanced up lightly: “No need.”
“Mr. Caleb Mamet, don’t worry too much. Your wife probably has something important to deal with. But no matter how important things are, she can’t completely ignore you.”
However, there’s no such behavior between you and your wife. It’s like you are two independent entities that never intersect. If you say you are a couple, no one would believe it.”
Caleb was half-believing: “Are you telling the truth?”
Steve Price nodded heavily: “Of course! I’ve read countless emotional counseling articles and romantic novels. I can assure you, Mr. Caleb, women love domineering men. You must assert your ownership in front of your wife, let her know that you are her man, and your strong shoulders are always waiting for her to lean on. Like this phone call incident, you should tell her: No matter what happens, I can help you deal with it. Don’t look for others, and don’t talk to others on the phone for so long, understood?”
Caleb: ‘
Unbearable to look at.
What kind of stupid man is that? Do women nowadays have such heavy tastes?
However… Upon hearing the ‘The number you dialed is currently in a call’ once again, Caleb couldn’t help but think whether he should try what Steve Price said?
If there were a third person in the car, that person might tell Caleb helplessly: No domineering CEO is needed, and there are no important matters to deal with.. Xaviera isn’t talking to anyone on the phone; she has simply blocked you!
