Company secretary:
She nervously replied, โPerhaps itโs the gossip between girls? Like when we talk with our friends, we tend to lose track of time.โ
Caleb coldly said, โBut even if you forget about time, thereโs no need for a two-hour call, is there? Arenโt you afraid of wearing your mouth out?โ
Two hoursโฆ That is indeed a bit long.
The secretary suddenly thought of a possibility and cautiously said, โMr. Caleb Mamet, are you sure that the person was really on the phone? Thereโs another possibility that person might have blocked you.โ
But, would anyone block Mr. Caleb Mamet?
Having said that, the secretary felt that her guess might be wrong. She wanted to add something but noticed that Calebโs face had turned livid.
Secretary:
Caleb was unable to contain his anger. Good for Xaviera Evans, daring to block him! And Steve Price, that stupid man said Xaviera was on a call with someone else, all misinformation!
โGo, tell Steve Price that his bonus is canceled this month!โ Secretary:
Is this the legendary misplaced anger? Poor assistant.
On the other hand, Xaviera waited for Caleb in the villa until nine oโclock in the evening. Her stomach was growling with hunger, but that bastard Caleb was still not back!
Unable to hold back, she confirmed with the housekeeper, โHousekeeper, are you sure Caleb is coming back today?โ
The housekeeper uncertainly replied, โWhen I called Mr. Mamet earlier, he said he would be back, but itโs indeed late now. Mrs. Mamet, are you hungry? Shall I have the kitchen prepare something for you? Or deal with the things you brought back?โ
Xaviera sighed, โNo need, Iโll wait for him to come back.โ
If Caleb doesnโt return, whatโs the point of eating? She couldnโt taste anything anyway.
When it was nine-thirty, Xaviera couldnโt help herself and took out her phone to call Caleb. Good, the call went through, meaning Caleb didnโt block her.
As time went on, she couldnโt help but wonder if Caleb had found out that she blocked him. But the phone was able to connect nowโฆ If it were Calebโs character, he would probably block her in retaliation if he found out she blocked him.
Soon, the call connected, and the faint sound of the manโs breathing came through the phone.
Xaviera asked stiffly, โCaleb?โ
Calebโs voice was cold, โHmm.โ
Xaviera: โItโs almost ten oโclock, you told the housekeeper youโd be back for dinner. Where are you? Why arenโt you back yet?โ
Caleb snorted, โI didnโt finish my work; I canโt go back.โ
Xaviera heard this and knew that Caleb, the bastard, was having a temper with her again.
โDoes Mrs. Mamet need something? If not, Iโll continue working.โ
โWait.โ
Xaviera took several deep breaths and waved at the housekeeper to move further away before gritting her teeth and calling Caleb, โCaleb!โ
There was a slight pause in Calebโs breathing on the other end of the line.
Xavieraโs eyes lit up, as this trick seemed to work. She pressed on, โCaleb, when will you be home? Iโm so hungry waiting for you!โ
Calebโs fingertips curled slightly, and he lowered his voice, โFine, Iโll be back soon. โ
Xaviera: โ
Bastard! Werenโt you just saying you had work to do!?
Twenty minutes later, when the door opened, Xaviera got up from the sofa and ran to Caleb to eagerly take off his coat, โLet me, let me.โ
Caleb glanced at her, โHungry?โ
Xaviera nodded vigorously, โHungry, starving!โ ๐ป๐โฏโฏ๐โฏ๐ท๐๐ฐ๐ทโฏ๐ญ.๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ
โHeh,โ Caleb sneered, probably thinking that she was going to ask him for something and thatโs why she changed her attitude.
The man leisurely went upstairs, โBut Iโm not hungry. Mrs. Mamet, if youโre hungry, go ahead and eat. Iโll take a shower upstairs.โ
Obviously, he was being difficult.
Xaviera was more certain that Caleb was in a bad mood. The original idea of forcefully kissing him gradually faded away. Sheโd better not provoke the tiger. โAlright, you go take a shower, and weโll have a good talk after youโre done.โ
Caleb hesitated mid-step upstairs, and he looked back at her, โDoes Mrs. Mamet need something from me?โ This woman had a complete change of attitude compared to the daytime.
Xavieraโs expression stiffened. Although it could be considered asking, she wasnโt the only one benefiting from kissing, he was too.
She showed a formulaic smile, โNo, weโre a married couple. Canโt I just show some concern? Be careful in the shower; donโt slip and fall.โ
At a time like this, it didnโt sound like concern; it seemed more like a curse.
Caleb snorted internally, probably guessing that she wanted to use him to regain her sense of taste. Because only when she needed him would she be somewhat friendly to him..
