Chapter 155 - 155: 155: Kind-hearted and Beautiful Mrs.
Doctors all frowned. They all belonged to the Medical Association, and Mrs. Mamet relied on them to treat the Mamet family, so they had to speak up.
‘Miss Flack, framing others for your sake is your family’s business, which is none of our concern. However, we are very busy and could save more patients instead of wasting time with you!”
Another doctor discontentedly said, “If you want to set up Mrs. Mamet and drive her out of the Mamet family, do it more cleanly, Miss Flack. Instead, you left loopholes everywhere. Do you think we’re stupid?”
Seeing that things had gone wrong, the butler said in a low voice, “Madam, you are in the wrong this time. If you don’t explain, Mr. Mamet’s temper is something you are well aware of. While he hasn’t lost his temper yet, make a quick apology. No matter what, he is your son and won’t say anything.
Otherwise, it won’t be so simple when Mrs. Whitman comes to deal with it.”
Mrs. Mamet hated the idea of apologizing.
An apology to Xaviera Evans?
That’s ridiculous!
Caleb is her son, and even if Xaviera is wronged, what difference would it make to her?
Mrs. Mamet knew that if she apologized now, Caleb wouldn’t pursue the matter further since she was Mrs. Mamet.
Even if Caleb held a grudge, Xaviera, as the daughter-in-law, would have to give face to her mother-in-law.
In the end, Mrs. Mamet said through her clenched teeth, “Miss Evans, I was wrong.”
Xaviera innocently shook her head, “It’s okay, Mrs. Mamet, I know you hate me, and I forgive you. Let’s put this behind us.”
People around them whispered in praise of Xaviera’s beauty and kindness.
Yvette Flack clenched her teeth in anger, Xaviera beautiful and kind-hearted?
Yvette Flack’s face filled with disbelief, she had been poisoned and almost disfigured!
How come in the end she became the culprit, and Xaviera ended up being the one everyone praised?
Was this a reversal?
“Miss Flack, what are you thinking? Are you unconvinced?” Xaviera took the opportunity to approach Yvette and asked softly.
“When I was locked in the dark cell, if Caleb hadn’t come back to save me, I’d definitely have been subjected to the family law, and I’d have been the one to be disfigured!”
“You tried to hurt me but ended up hurting yourself, that’s called fighting fire with fire!”
Yvette was trembling with rage, yelling in her heart.
But she dared not speak up because no one would believe her words.
In the end, she could only watch Xaviera and Caleb walk away hand in hand with smiles on their faces.
Once they left, Caleb glanced at her casually, “Why did the doctors diagnose that the poisoning happened four hours ago?”
It was impossible for anyone to suspect Xaviera because Mrs. Mamet, Mrs. Whitman, and Yvette Flack were poisoned four hours prior.
If Xaviera had not been locked in the dark cell then, even if there was no footage of her, Mrs. Mamet would bite the bullet and say Xaviera poisoned them.
But it just so happened that it was Mrs. Mamet who ordered Xaviera to be locked in the dark cell, which turned out to be a self-inflicted mess.
Caleb thought, as a matter of fact, regardless of whether he came back or not, nothing would happen to Xaviera. She was purposely waiting in the dark cell for the poison to take effect on the three, creating an alibi.
In this way, no one would suspect her of poisoning.
Xaviera looked at him innocently, “Mr. Mamet, what are you saying? Do you think I poisoned them too? I’m so weak, I couldn’t do anything so cruel, and I was in the dark cell!”
“Heh!” Caleb sneered and twitched the corner of his mouth, “You poisoned them before you were locked into the dark cell, when Mrs. Mamet dragged you to apologize to Yvette.”
Caleb thought, only at that time would Xaviera have enough time to sprinkle the poison on Mrs. Mamet without anyone noticing.
Then, after they went to Yvette’s room, Mrs. Whitman ridiculed Xaviera and she sprinkled the poison on her too.
Finally, when Xaviera and Yvette were alone, it was even easier.
Xaviera hesitated, ‘
Damn! She has been exposed.
Did her fragile appearance not seem convincing?
How did Caleb see through her?
Xaviera composed herself and continued to look pitifully at Caleb.
“Mr. Mamet, you’re wronging me! Wooo, how could I possibly poison them? Does this mean you don’t trust me?”
Caleb’s face was calm, “The poison powder itself is weak and harmless, even when sprinkled on the body. But if it comes into contact with coffee, then the poison will take effect.”
Xaviera’s smile vanished instantly, “Mr. Mamet, I don’t understand what you mean.”
Caleb nonchalantly replied, “Mrs. Mamet had a sore throat today, so she wanted to soothe it with coffee. I suppose you were behind her sore throat too.”
Xaviera was speechless.. How did this man know?
