When Caleb Mamet held her, he was extremely relieved that Mrs. Mamet was not genuinely weak. Otherwise, facing the attack of these five people, she might not have been able to hold on until he arrived.
What would have happened if he had been even a little bit late, and she had been injured, disfigured?
Caleb emitted a terrifying chill. The expression in his eyes turned cold as he stared at the others.
‘Mag Evans put you up to this.”
His words sounded plain, but the others shivered in fear, feeling as if they were in the presence of a demon from hell.
Shortly after, a group of black- uniformed bodyguards charged out, quickly restraining the five people.
With Xaviera Evans in his arms, Caleb indifferently left one sentence: “Steve
Price, clean this up.”
Steve had already called the police. The five attackers showed no fear when they were caught.
They believed that Mag would not abandon them and would surely pay to bail them out.
Mag hurriedly picked up the ring, wiping the dust off it, “It’s all dirty..
Caleb grasped her hand: “Actually, you could have thrown them off, couldn’t you?”
Xaviera choked, “I’m fine.”
Caleb calmed his emotions, and his breathing gradually returned to normal.
These people were indeed no match for Xaviera, but their methods were too ruthless, and Xaviera could not be guaranteed to be unharmed.
Caleb stared at her intently, “For the ring?”
Xaviera was startled for a moment, feeling a bit guilty.
Caleb took the ring from her hand, looking at the dusty ring as the corner of his lips curled up, “Treasure my gift so much that even if you might get hurt, you won’t throw it away?”
Xaviera’s pupils suddenly shrank.
Seeing the ring fall to the ground, she felt as if her heart had lost a piece of itself.
Although her senior fellow had given her many gifts before, this ring was the first gift Caleb had given her.
And these people almost destroyed it!
She tried to cover up her thoughts and cleared her throat, “Don’t overthink it. I just think the ring is very expensive and it would be a pity.”
Caleb cast his eyes down to stroke the ring, his tone light and breezy, “So you should know what brand this ring is, right?”
She had never worn rings before, so she didn’t know much about these things.
Caleb spoke slowly, “You don’t know, do you?”
She looked confused, and then she heard the man chuckle softly, “Since you don’t know the brand, how can you say it’s expensive? You’d even risk your life for this ring?”
Xaviera’s mind was in chaos, and she muttered quietly, “I don’t know what brand it is, but I think anything you give me must not be cheap.”
Caleb smiled indifferently.
His eyes burned as they stared at her.
After a moment of silence, the man raised a hand to touch her slightly cold cheek, his voice gentle but full of strength: “Xaviera Evans, you really do like me, right?”
Xaviera immediately opened her mouth wide, her body trembling.
At that moment, Albert Sullivan walked over and without hesitation, Xaviera rushed straight to him.
Caleb’s expression remained calm, the corners of his mouth slightly curved upwards.
Mrs. Mamet was embarrassed!
The five caught attackers still refused to admit their wrongdoing, but the evidence from Xaviera’s recording put them at a loss for words.
News of the five hooligans seeking revenge for a female celebrity and attempting to commit murder spread across the internet, sparking heated discussions among netizens.
Netizens didn’t know who the main character of the incident was, but the incident itself was already shocking enough.
[I heard that the five hooligans were not even adults yet and believed that even if they killed someone, they wouldn’t have to take responsibility. If someone hadn’t saved her, the girl would have been killed by them!]
[This world is crazy, fanatical fans are really terrifying. I heard the girl is not in the entertainment industry], someone commented.
Everyone expressed their opinions, and then someone posted a key piece of information:
[The photo is a bit blurry, but it looks a little like Xaviera Evans. Xaviera isn’t in the entertainment industry, so which female celebrity has a grudge against her?]
A moment later, the comment disappeared without a trace, and other comments revealing identities were also deleted.
At the Evans family home,
Crash!
A glass cup was slammed onto the ground, and Mag screamed with her voice hoarse: “That slut has such good luck! Five people couldn’t even kill her, and now she’s made the situation even greater.”
Rose Campbell felt panicked: “Mag, what do we do now?”
Mag forced herself to calm down and gritted her teeth: “Get them out.”
Rose’s face was pale: “I’ve already sent someone, but they committed attempted murder. It won’t be that easy, and Xaviera’s connections are strong, so they won’t dare to just let them go.”
What?
Mag’s heart skipped a beat!
Those people were her brainwashed fans. Whenever she ran into trouble, they would help her fix it. Even if they were caught, they would be released after a while, and it would not really harm her.
But this time was different..
