Did this group of people know that he had forced Caleb to give up that piece of land?
At first, he only wanted Caleb to dispel the rumors and not to tarnish the reputation of the Mamet family, but he didn’t expect these people to hear it with their own ears.
Those who could attend the Mamet family banquet were all either rich or noble, so even if Will Mamet was unhappy, he couldn’t stop the comments.
Caleb’s face was pale, his eyes deep and slowly he said: “Father, I will give up the land.”
Boyd Drew got the land, but his reputation in Libanan was completely ruined.
Will Mamet’s face was gloomy, suppressing his anger: “Caleb, don’t be so smug. Even though it came at a small price, as long as we get that land, it will bring huge profits, Boyd Drew will soon become the most successful entrepreneur, and no one will remember this tiny stain on his reputation. He will replace you completely.”
Caleb raised his eyebrows: “I’m looking forward to it.”
Looking at Caleb’s nonchalant demeanor, Will Mamet was burning with anger: “Caleb, I’m your father. When I was a successful businessman, you couldn’t even walk. I’m sure you can’t compete with Boyd Drew!”
Caleb sneered: “Father?”
Will Mamet thought Caleb had softened, but he didn’t expect him to say slowly: “Although I was young at the time, I never heard about your success in the business world. Is your memory failing you because of your age, Father? You’d better get yourself checked at the hospital. If you die, who will Boyd Drew complain to?”
Xaviera Evans: “…” Wow! Our Caleb has gone savage!
Will Mamet gritted his teeth: “You! Very well! We’ll see!”
With that, he left angrily, Xaviera disdained and closed the door heavily.
Caleb’s expression was calm, and Xaviera couldn’t help but ask: “Caleb… The chairman called you back this time, it shouldn’t be just for that piece of land, right? Is there something else?”
Caleb smiled and rubbed her head: “Smart.”
“Even if he wants that land, he could go to your company or financially support Boyd Drew! Calling you back on this day, there must be something more important – ”
Xaviera paused for a moment, and continued: “Mr. Mamet wants to officially announce Boyd Drew’s return to the Mamet family.”
Caleb nodded without changing his expression.
Xaviera thought for a moment: “Jenny Green wants to take this opportunity to push all the blame on you. After all, she, as a mistress, took over while Miss Drew was still alive, so she has always been laughed at and had no way to defend herself.”
“If Boyd Drew returns to the Mamet family as Miss Drew’s biological son, Jenny Green will come forward to admit Boyd Drew’s identity, announce that he is the heir to the Mamet family, and weep in public. She will take this opportunity to pin the blame for Miss Drew’s death on you.”
There was silence in the room.
“Huh.” Caleb’s slender fingers tapped, and he said casually: “That’s what it is.”
“What else would my father be inviting so many people for?”
Xaviera’s heart ached: “What should we do? Can we prove your identity?”
If both the Drew and Mamet families came forward to testify against Caleb and with him being a illegitimate child, it could indeed be difficult to refute.
Moreover, everyone knew that Jenny Green only got a chance to enter the Mamet family by bringing Caleb, the ‘illegitimate child’, and then Miss Drew died. It was very likely that something said or done by the illegitimate child caused Miss Drew’s death.
Later, the Drew family would also come forward to slander Caleb, burying the true cause of Miss Drew’s death forever.
Xaviera gasped: “Miss Drew has been dead for so many years, and the Drew family still wants to exploit her?”
Caleb’s eyes were deep: “When she was alive, she was married into the Mamet family as a pawn. She has been dead for more than twenty years, yet they still won’t let her go.”
The man’s eyes narrowed, “Jenny Green has always had good relationships in the upper class, and is known for her kindness and gentleness. So many people have even forgotten that she became successful as a mistress.”
Well, her gentleness is just a disguise, and now it’s time for her true colors to show.
As for their feuds, they would slowly be settled one by one.
