Chapter 227 - 227: 227: A Coincidental Meeting of Minds
His voice was cold, revealing the thoughts he had heard.
“To destroy everything they have, make them wish they were dead, make them regret, break their reputation, and drive away their family and friends.”
“Also, let them suffer endless torture, feel endless pain, let them kneel down and beg you, and finally die in despair.”
Caleb said indifferently, “Only by doing this can it be considered revenge.”
Xaviera was stunned for a long time.
Did Caleb… coincide with her thoughts?
Xaviera’s face was full of surprise, but she still had to pretend to be weak.
“Ah, Caleb, I’m so weak, how could I be so cruel and heartless…”
“Hmm.” Knowing that exposing her would only embarrass her, Caleb agreed, “You don’t have to do it, I’ll help you.”
She doesn’t need to get her hands dirty with blood.
Xaviera was somewhat taken aback, a warmth in her heart.
-“Wow! Caleb is so manly like this! I love him like this too much!”
-“Xaviera, stay calm! Your little heart is beating too fast. You can’t let yourself be swept away by a man!”
-“But I can’t help myself! He’s so handsome! I love him so much!”
-“Caleb! Mua!”
Listening to her inner thoughts, Caleb’s eyes softened, and he gently embraced her, holding her soft body close.
They could clearly hear each other’s heartbeats, and Caleb had never felt so happy, as if he had gained the most precious treasure in the world.
It was because he drank her blood that he could hear her thoughts, and perhaps the blood would lose its effect after some time, and he could only wait until the next time she was poisoned, drink her blood, and hear her thoughts anew.
But Caleb couldn’t bear to see her hurt, even for him, cutting herself to save him.
He would rather endure the pain of being poisoned, not hear her thoughts, than to see her injured.
His eyes downcast, the man walked directly to his study, closed the door, and dialed Albert Sullivan’s phone.
Albert was Xaviera’s senior fellow and should be willing to help him suppress the Evans family together.
A few days later, Derek Evans called.
He was arrogant, “The boss of Fragrant House invited us to a banquet, and as a member of the Evans family, you have to attend. Dress properly, don’t disgrace the Evans family, and meet at the entrance of Fragrant House at ten o’clock tomorrow morning.”
Then he hung up.
Xaviera was speechless. Her father always had an ulterior motive for getting up early and having her attend the banquet.
What was Fragrant House? It was her lair!
The next day at ten.
Xaviera was wearing a black, long dress that perfectly outlined her body, her seaweed-like hair draped over her shoulders, giving off an impressive aura, drawing everyone’s attention.
Rose Campbell was chatting with a middle-aged man, as soon as she saw Xaviera, her face was instantly dazzled, “Mr. Evans, your eldest daughter is so beautiful!”
Derek’s face was full of flattery, “Mr. Duke, you’re too kind. Actually, my younger daughter is even better, but she’s already engaged to Mr. Moore Mamet, so that’s why I asked my elder daughter to come. What do you think?”
Mr. Duke’s eyes were full of lewdness, “Very good! I like it very much…”
Rose and Derek exchanged glances, quickly going forward to greet Xaviera.
“Xaviera, the Evans family is in some trouble now. After all, you’re one of us, you have to do something to help us get through this. Mr. Duke is a rich man, as long as you marry him, everything will be settled, and you’ll be able to live the life of a wealthy wife.”
Xaviera almost laughed at her rage. How could Rose bring herself to say these words? Why didn’t she marry Mr. Duke herself?
It was utterly ridiculous!
Xaviera’s face was full of disdain.
“Xaviera, can’t you just stand by and watch the company go bankrupt?”
Rose looked sad, “You’re also the daughter of the Evans family, you have to contribute something. There was once an executive who took a fancy to your mother and wanted her to sleep with him. If it weren’t for her stubborn refusal, the Evans family wouldn’t have fallen to this level! Both of you, mother and daughter, can’t just only think of yourselves – think of the Evans family!”
If Rose was only trying to provoke her, she had succeeded..
