Although Xaviera Evans already knew Caleb Mamet’s plan, she still felt a surge of bitterness as she watched Will Mamet force Caleb’s hand.
Caleb was Winny Drew’s biological son, yet everyone abandoned him. To pave the way for Boyd Drew, they completely disregarded Caleb’s feelings.
No matter what, Caleb was still Will’s own flesh and blood, his first son. However, for the sake of Jenny Green’s status, he turned the legitimate son of the Mamet family into an illegitimate child hidden in darkness, bearing the stigma for a lifetime.
Now, Will was still unwilling to let Caleb go, using him to the fullest.
Xaviera’s expression was cold, her eyes full of anger.
At that moment, the phone suddenly rang, and Sean Price anxiously said, “Madam, please come over here!”
Twenty minutes earlier.
In the study of the Mamet Old Mansion.
Caleb Mamet lazily sat on the sofa, and the butler nervously reminded him, “Mr. Caleb Mamet, Chairman Mamet will be here soon. You, um… ”
As a younger generation, you cannot just sit leisurely on the sofa when your own father arrives, can you?
“Hm?” Caleb raised his eyebrows, his face expressionless.
The butler felt his hairs stand on end, cautiously saying, “Please stand up and greet him.”
Caleb’s face was indifferent: “Why should I welcome him? Can’t he walk on his own?”
The butler, sweating coldly, stammered, “Chairman Mamet, he… this… ”
“If I don’t go out to meet him, he can’t come here?”
As soon as the words left his mouth, there was a sudden rush of footsteps from outside. Will Mamet roared, grabbing a vase next to him and threw it at Caleb.
“Scoundrel!”
With a nimble turn, Caleb evaded the attack, and the vase crashed to the ground, shattering into countless pieces.
Will Mamet bellowed, “Unfilial son!”
Caleb sneered, “Father, you still love smashing things so much. Why don’t I send you a few more vases to smash to your heart’s content?”
The butler quickly hung his head, trembling with fear.
Will Mamet clutched his chest, roaring, “I am your father! Is this how you talk to me? You didn’t even greet me as a son should, and even when I entered the room, you just sat there with no manners!”
Caleb leaned lazily back on the sofa, not sparing Will a glance, “As the saying goes, a child’s lack of manners is the father’s fault. Shouldn’t you look in the mirror, father?”
Will Mamet was choked, “…”
He trembled with fury. Since when did this son of his get completely out of control?
All he originally planned was to give Caleb some meal, but the family estate had nothing to do with him. However, Caleb seized control of the Mamet family, becoming a well-known business tycoon in Libanan City.
Admittedly, the Mamet family had deep roots in Libanan, but becoming enemies with Caleb would undoubtedly come at a heavy price.
No matter what, the Mamets belonged to Boyd Drew!
Caleb had occupied it for long enough, and now it was time to return it to Boyd!
Will Mamet sat across from Caleb, commanding, “I called you here for an important matter, quickly withdraw from the bid and let Boyd have that piece of land!”
The air quieted down instantly.
Caleb’s slender fingers tapped the table, his expression calm, eyes slightly downcast, concealing his emotions. Then, his thin lips gently parted, “On what grounds?”
Will Mamet frowned, “You refuse?”
Caleb sneered, “Ha. The son you prefer is as useless as you.”
“Caleb! Have you gone mad?! How dare you talk to me like this?” Will Mamet fiercely pounded the table and bellowed furiously.
“I don’t care how well-known you are! I am still your father! Everything you own now belongs to the Mamet family! What I tell you to do, you must do! You have no qualifications to refuse! You have to put up with any dissatisfaction!”
“Ha!”
Caleb looked up, his eyes full of mockery, “Father? Are you worthy?”
“You…”
“Are you going to tell me that because I’m an illegitimate son, I have to give everything to Boyd?” Caleb took a sip of coffee, his eyes calm and unruffled.
“Chairman Mamet, my silence doesn’t mean I don’t know. I just want to see what the Mamets and the Drews are up to, how many more despicable means you have, and whether you think I’m easy to bully?”
