Chapter 154 - 154: Mrs. Mamet Pretends to be
Mrs. Mamet gritted her teeth in hatred, her son disregarded her, and her daughter-in-law even poisoned her; it was simply too humiliating. She was trembling with anger: “What are you waiting for! Tie this bitch up, I want her to pay!”
The servants’ hearts skipped a beat as they glanced at Caleb. With this plague present, who would dare to act?
Mrs. Mamet was consumed with anger, and she knew why the servants didn’t dare to act. With Caleb present, who would dare to lay a hand on Xaviera Evans?
If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have kept this unfilial son!
When she said Caleb was her son, it was just to avoid trouble and make him work for her.
Unexpectedly, Caleb had become disobedient and completely out of her control, even taking charge of the entire Mamet family.
Mrs. Mamet gritted her teeth in hatred, her mind buzzing, “Fine! If you won’t listen to me, then I’ll do it myself! Xaviera, I’ll destroy your face-” Caleb casually blocked Mrs. Mamet, his expression cold.
“Are you going against me for this woman? I’m your mother; if it weren’t for me, you would still be an insignificant bastard. Now…”
“Mrs. Mamet.” Suddenly, Xaviera interrupted her, “Why are you so sure that I did it?”
Mrs. Mamet roared angrily: “Other than you, who else could it be, you bitch…” “But when you were poisoned, I was still in the dark cell.”
Xaviera’s eyes were full of grievances, and her face was innocent: “Mrs. Mamet, I know you don’t like me, but to accuse me, there must be evidence. I couldn’t possibly escape the dark cell to poison you. If you insist on framing me, I have nothing to say, but so many eyes are watching!”
“You…”
Mrs. Mamet was momentarily speechless.
The crowd looked at one another and couldn’t help nodding.
That’s right, Xaviera had been in the dark cell all along, with no opportunity to poison anyone!
They knew in their hearts that Mrs. Mamet despised this daughter-in-law, but this was not Xaviera’s doing, yet she wanted to pin it on her.
Yvette Flack glared at Xaviera with resentment, not pretending to be a phony girl anymore, “Xaviera, stop quibbling. Only you could do such a poisonous act!
You’re too heartless…”
Xaviera’s face was indifferent, “You were poisoned four hours ago.”
Yvette Flack quickly retorted: “The doctor’s words might not be accurate!” Everyone looked at Yvette with mocking expressions.
Xaviera couldn’t help but laugh: “Miss Flack, the doctors that the Mamet family hires are all well-known in the industry. They save lives, heal the injured, and help countless patients. You can say whatever you want about me, but how can you tarnish the reputation of medical professionals?”
The servants’ faces were unhappy, and they looked at Yvette with cold eyes.
With one sentence, Yvette had offended these medical professionals for no reason. Her desire to become the hostess of the Mamet family was but a pipe dream!
At this moment, the housekeeper came forward, looking helpless, “Madam, the surveillance shows that four hours ago, only you three were in the coffee shop, with no one else present.”
With Caleb standing nearby, the housekeeper didn’t dare to lie even if he borrowed two more guts.
And four hours ago, Xaviera had been in the dark cell the whole time, never leaving.
The coffee shop was specifically for Mrs. Mamet’s guests, and even close servants were not allowed to enter. Who had the ability to poison the three of them in an instant?
The doctor’s expression was serious, “The poisonous weed can be inhaled through the nose, but its smell is pungent and easily detected. If it’s added to water, it’s colorless and tasteless, making it difficult to find out. You should think about whether you drank something?”
Everyone was startled and suddenly realized.
—The coffee shop was exclusively for Mrs. Mamet, and no one else was allowed to enter.
—The coffee they drank had been tested and shown no poison, but after drinking it, they were all poisoned.
—It was obvious that the person who poisoned them was Mrs. Mamet!
Xaviera sighed softly, her face full of grievances.
“Indeed, my status is not worthy of Caleb. Mrs. Mamet doesn’t like me and could have just driven me away. Now she even poisoned people to frame me, and also implicated Miss Flack and Mrs. Whitman to suffer.”
Xaviera changed her tone: “Could it be that this is a scheme of the three of you? As long as I leave, Miss Flack can marry Caleb. I understand! I’ll leave right away! Miss Flack, I wish you happiness! Boo hoo hoo…”
After saying that, Xaviera covered her face and sobbed.
Caleb: ‘
Caleb hugged Xaviera and whispered comfortingly, “Don’t cry, no one can drive you away.”
Xaviera sobbed, “Boo hoo… but your mother doesn’t like me, and this time she even accused me of poisoning people.. If my guilt is established, how can I have the face to live in this world!”
