Chapter 106 - 106: Please Let Me Go
Since that’s the case, he decided not to interfere any further. After all, it wouldn’t be him who would be embarrassed when everything was revealed. Steve Price hummed in annoyance, “No, the madam hasn’t been bullied.” Considering the Evans family, it’s already nice that the madam didn’t bully them.
Caleb Mamet paused and asked, “After you helped her resolve the issue, did she say anything to you?”
Steve Price nodded, “Yeah, the madam is very polite, she even thanked me.”
Caleb Mamet squinted his eyes, “Thanking you? Just you?”
Steve Price: “?”
What else? He was the one who handled the matter; if not for him, who should she thank? Did she have to thank the Evans family for stirring up trouble themselves?
“I’m the one who asked you to help her, shouldn’t she be thanking me as well?
Or did you never tell her that I’m the one who made you go and support her? Steve Price, are you trying to get your salary deducted again?”
Steve Price: ‘
Deducting salary, that’s all he ever thinks about! Now it seems like the madam was right, Mr. Caleb Mamet is indeed a scumbag!
“By the way, Mr. Caleb Mamet, I heard that a sacked teacher from the school has a grudge against the madam and wants to cause her trouble. Do you think I should go and handle it?”
Caleb Mamet’s fingers paused, and he glanced at the itinerary. He deliberately had Steve Price go to support her while he couldn’t leave the company due to work, yet she only thanked Steve Price and not him.
“I don’t want to help those who don’t thank me.” Caleb Mamet spoke at a leisurely pace, “However, I see that I’m scheduled to inspect Libanan University soon. You can check when that person plans to target Xaviera Evans, and then report back to me.”
Steve Price: ‘
If he wants to support the madam, just say it directly, who is he trying to deceive?!
As a board member of Libanan University, he didn’t show up once a year. But now that the madam is teaching at Libanan University, look how many times he’s visiting; even more than he goes to work.
Humph.
A few days later, two of the Evans family’s joint projects were destroyed, landing them in a difficult situation. Derek Evans sought help everywhere, and Moore Mamet, as their future son-in-law, also helped out.
However, their efforts didn’t seem to yield any results.
Xaviera Evans touched the gun in her bag, recalling what Steve Price had said about him being a former deputy officer, and a smile curled at the corner of her lips. She had searched on the dark web, and there was no one named Steve Price among all the retired deputy officers.
She guessed that Steve Price must have thought she wouldn’t understand and that it wouldn’t matter if he told her about being a deputy officer. However, he probably didn’t expect that not only did she understand, but she also knew a lot. The fact that she couldn’t find any information about Steve Price’s identity now meant that his background was mysterious enough, and such a mysterious person willingly stayed by Caleb Mamet’s side as his assistant…
Moreover, this modified pistol; for a normal prominent family, it would be difficult to get a gun, let alone a modified and perfect one like this. Caleb Mamet casually handed her the modified gun, making her feel like she was receiving a cabbage… from this perspective, it could only mean that such a modified gun was not important or worth mentioning to Caleb Mamet.
So, Caleb Mamet’s identity is quite interesting. What kind of identity would a man who can casually give away a pistol have?
Xaviera Evans narrowed her eyes, suddenly finding her temporary marriage partner very intriguing.
At that moment, a panicked voice sounded not far away.
“Ah? Who is this? Why are they covered in injuries?”
As Xaviera Evans reached the school gate and heard the voice, she was about to turn her head when a blood-soaked, crazed woman suddenly rushed towards her—
“Miss Evans, please spare me! I’m still young, I don’t want to lose my job! I have elderly and young family members to take care of, you can’t do this to me!”
Xaviera Evans frowned, who is this person?
From a distance, a student scratched their head in confusion, “This person seems to be a teacher from the Design Department, what happened to her?”
“I don’t know, why is she asking Xaviera Evans to spare her? Did Xaviera Evans do something to her?”
The students around them got excited instantly; ever since Xaviera Evans came to Libanan University, there had been constant incidents. They enjoyed watching the drama unfold, which added fun to their dull and boring school life.
Xaviera Evans’ path was blocked; she looked at the woman covered in blood whose face she couldn’t discern and tried her best to search for related information about her in her mind, but unfortunately, she found none.
“Miss Evans, I’m sorry, I’m truly sorry. I shouldn’t have believed the rumors on the forum and badmouthed you behind your back. I apologize, and I can apologize for the negative impact I’ve caused you. Please be merciful and let me go, alright? I really can’t afford to lose this job..”
