“Wait…” Pregnant?
Before Xaviera could finish speaking, the butler hurriedly left.
Soon, Caleb strolled over, smiling slightly, “I heard you’re pregnant?” Xaviera:
They hadn’t even done that, how could she be pregnant? Was this bastard trying to make a joke?
—’If I were pregnant, that baby would be with someone else. Does Caleb want to be cheated on like that?’
‘Dead man, if you dare say I’m fat, I’ll kill you!’
He hugged her waist, which indeed seemed a bit fatter, but it seemed even cuter. Before, she was too thin, and now she feels nice and plump to touch.
“Mrs. Mamet is not fat at all.” The man said with a smile.
Xaviera’s face eased up a bit, and thankfully Caleb didn’t say anything. She started to complain, “Others say I’m fat.”
Caleb smiled slightly, “That’s because they don’t understand aesthetics. Your figure is perfect.”
Xaviera’s eyes widened in surprise.
My God! This man was actually saying sweet words!
Xaviera’s heartbeat quickened, finally understanding why women like sweet-talking men.
Listening to his sweet words, she felt much better.
“Am I really not fat? Now all girls are pursuing a thin, white, and young look, it seems like I’ve gained a bit.”
Caleb ruffled her hair, almost melting inside, “Not heavy at all. They should be envious of your figure.”
Xaviera’s cheeks turned a soft pink, gradually spreading up to her ears.
She suddenly looked up and heard Caleb slowly say, “You eat so much, and you only gain a little weight. That’s already very impressive, so they must be envious of you!”
Xaviera was stunned for a few seconds.
Bastard man! A dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory!
The originally jumping little heart suddenly stopped, gnashing its teeth in anger.
It would rather believe in ghosts than in a man’s rotten mouth!
It would be better to go to sleep and listen to sweet words in a dream than wait for him to say a few nice things.
Xaviera turned around and started to walk away, but Caleb grabbed her,
“What’s wrong?”
—’What do you think is wrong? Bastard man, you did it on purpose, right? I used to think he was a warm-hearted big brother before I met him, but when I met him, I realized he’s a dick!’
Caleb hooked the corner of his lips and laughed wickedly, “I’m quite happy.” Xaviera almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
If she had done anything wrong, she would rather have God punish her, not Caleb tormenting her!
When he first entered the room, Caleb’s face was cold, but now he was all smiles.
Caleb’s thin lips parted, “I wasn’t happy at first, but once I saw you, I felt happy.”
Xaviera opened her mouth wide, her heart pounding.
What did he say?
Did that mean he missed her?
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang with a new message, interrupting her thoughts.
Caleb turned his face away to hide his reddening ears, feigning calm and asked, “Are you investigating Derek Evans and Rose Campbell?” Xaviera was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Finding evidence after so many years wouldn’t be easy.
Caleb asked seriously, “What do you want to do?”
Xaviera was lost in thought, not understanding why Caleb was asking such questions – did he mean to help?
“I want to find out the truth and make the criminals pay!”
But that’s just the beginning. She also wanted to expose Derek Evans and Rose Campbell’s deeds to the world to comfort her mother’s soul in heaven.
And…
—’I want to take everything from Derek Evans and lead him step by step into hell, living a life worse than death!’
—’I want to make this pair of bastards resent each other, let Rose Campbell feel endless pain, fall into disrepute, and eventually die in despair.’ Xaviera’s eyes narrowed slightly, but her brow furrowed.
‘Maybe I shouldn’t tell Caleb about this for now. I’ve worked so hard to pretend to be weak, and if I start talking, I’ll break my character. Men probably hate deceitful women.’
—’It’s unlikely that any man would like a vengeful woman, and I happen to be just that.’
Xaviera’s eyes were filled with loss.
Yet Caleb heard her every thought, loud and clear..
