Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband-Chapter 945 - : A Dead Duck Stubbornly Refusing to Admit Defeat
Chapter 945 -945: A Dead Duck Stubbornly Refusing to Admit Defeat
Jonas Hughes trembled all over and hastily rushed forward to stop it: “Turn it off!”
“The Hughes family has always claimed that Zora’s fiancé is Caleb, so I’m curious about the person on this marriage contract.”
Suddenly, the screen zoomed in, revealing an old marriage contract in front of everyone. The date was twenty years ago, and the names of the two parties were clearly written on it.
The hairs of Cory Hughes trembled slightly as he lost his senses and rushed to the stage: “Turn it off quickly! This is fake! Xaviera Evans! You’re framing us!”
Having lived for decades, Cory Hughes had seen it all; his emotions no longer showed on his face. But at this moment, he roared in anger, completely losing his composure. The angrier he became, the more curious everyone was about the secret behind the marriage contract.
Madam Hughes, who had collapsed in her chair, quickly stood up upon hearing Cory’s yelling. As the Hughes family members tried desperately to block the marriage contract from view, it was too high on the large screen, rendering their efforts useless and allowing everyone to see it clearly.
On the marriage contract, the name of Cory Hughes was clearly written in the female signature column, while the male signature column held the name of Simon Gaile.
Everyone was puzzled – who was this person? Shouldn’t the male signatory be Miss Winni Drew? The Hughes family had previously claimed that the marriage contract had been arranged between Nina Hughes and Winni Drew.
The marriage contract looked very formal, and its grand material indicated the importance the Hughes family attached to it. Having agreed to the marriage shortly after Zora’s birth, it seemed that the two families had a strong relationship. But…
“Simon Gaile?”
“Have you ever heard this name?”
Xaviera raised her eyebrows and said, “Isn’t it strange that the last name on the marriage contract is not Caleb’s or his mother’s, but a person with the last name Gaile?”
Jonas Hughes’ face turned pale, and before he could argue, Xaviera spoke first: “Just to let Mr. Hughes know, we paid hacker Mortimer to investigate all this information. If you doubt the authenticity of the marriage contract, we can meet in court, where Mr. Mortimer will testify for us.”
Jonas was left speechless – who would dare question hacker Mortimer?
“The names on the marriage contract were personally signed by Mr. Hughes. If you’re not convinced, you can find professionals to verify the handwriting. Mr. Hughes, do you have any other questions?”
Seeing Xaviera’s cheerful appearance, the Hughes family members were fuming with anger. Zora had just been overjoyed, believing that Xaviera would not bear the public’s scolding and would reluctantly relinquish her position as Mrs. Mamet. However, she now exposed the marriage contract from twenty years ago.
At this moment, someone suddenly called out: “Simon Gaile?”
“I remember there used to be a Gaile family in Lokio, but they went bankrupt a few years ago. The family head then left Lokio with his family. Could the marriage contract be related to them?”
“It’s indeed possible! The marriage contract was agreed upon twenty years ago. So, Miss Hughes always claimed to have a fiancé. When the Gaile family went bankrupt a few years ago, the Hughes family stopped acknowledging the marriage. However, the two families never annulled the agreement, and the Hughes family falsely spread that Zora was engaged to Mr. Caleb Mamet.”
Everyone looked at the Hughes family members with suspicion. Their faces were extremely embarrassed. Cory Hughes futilely tried to explain: “No! You’ve misunderstood! Mr. Mamet, this is just an old marriage contract. It may even be fake. Even if it’s verified by an expert, with the power and wealth you have today, you can still manipulate the truth!”
Xaviera looked helpless, and the Hughes family members were stubborn as hell in this situation. Even at this point, they were still trying to argue, but their efforts were in vain since the facts were right in front of them.
She snorted coldly, “Sir Hughes is really eloquent. You’re right, the marriage contract could indeed be fake, but…”
After pausing, she glanced at Zora Hughes, then at Cory Hughes with a deep meaning, and snapped her fingers. The big screen flashed again, showing a luxurious living room with several people sitting around a table.
Upon closer inspection, two of them were none other than Cory Hughes and Madam Hughes.
Xaviera leaned lazily in her chair, her voice suddenly turning cold: “You can say the marriage contract is fake, but you can’t deny the authenticity of this video!”
Cory Hughes stared blankly at the screen, his whole body feeling like it had fallen into an ice cave. He suddenly remembered the long-buried past – this incident couldn’t be exposed!
Madam Hughes’ face turned pale, and she anxiously shouted: “Cory! Quick… stop them!”

But Xaviera completely ignored them. With a nonchalant wave of her hand, numerous bodyguards rushed forward to block the Hughes family members.
