Xaviera Evans smiled, “Caleb, let’s go.”
Caleb Mamet nodded slightly in response.
Will Mamet clenched his teeth, glaring fiercely at the two. The celebration originally meant to reveal Boyd Drew’s identity had been ruined by Caleb Mamet, and now these people were even forcing him to divorce Jenny!
He wanted to use this opportunity for their family to officially reunite, but now although Boyd could return to the Mamet family, Jenny was going to be abandoned!
“Caleb! Stop!” Will Mamet was livid.
Xaviera slowly turned around, sarcastically retorting, “Mr. Mamet, why don’t you prioritize your divorce process instead? Taking out your anger on Caleb is pointless.”
Will Mamet had no words to counter this.
The original plan was for the Mamet and Drew families to combine forces to force Caleb Mamet to admit to indirectly causing Winni Drew’s death, thereby depriving him of his inheritance and all assets. Now, because of the deceased Winni, the Drew and Mamet families cannot appear too close.
If only he had not kept this troublemaker around!
Ten minutes later, Xaviera Evans left the Mamet Old Mansion. As soon as she stepped out of the front gate, a man approached her, “Miss Evans, may we speak?”
Boyd Drew looked at her warmly.
Xaviera scoffed, “No!”
“Please give me a chance, Miss Evans.”
Boyd Drew bent his waist, giving off a highly sincere demeanor, “I have no ill intentions, just a few important matters to discuss. If you find the conversation unnecessary at any point, you can leave.”
Mockery spread across Xaviera’s face, “Mr. Drew, I dare not chat with you. Who knows what someone who can abandon his own mother might do.”
Boyd Drew did not get angry, still smiling confidently, “Don’t you want to know about… your grandfather’s situation, Miss Evans?”
Xaviera’s feet stopped moving, her eyes coldly met his.
Boyd Drew took out a necklace from his pocket, swung it in the air so Xaviera could clearly see the word ‘Luke’ engraved on it.
“Miss Evans, do you recognize this necklace?”
Xaviera’s heart trembled.
Indeed, it was her grandfather’s necklace. Everyone on the mountain didn’t know her grandpa’s name but knew he always wore a necklace with the character ‘Luke’ on it.
When her grandfather disappeared two years ago, he had only taken that necklace with him.
After a long investigation, Xaviera discovered that her grandfather’s last known location was Libanan, so she returned to Libanan and continued searching alongside her siblings, but they found no leads.
Xaviera lowered her voice, “Where did you get this necklace from?”
“Your grandfather gave it to me personally,” Boyd Drew’s voice was gentle, “Miss Evans, you do not need to hold such animosity towards me. If your grandfather gave this necklace to me, it means he trusts me entirely. Moreover, you are my fiancée. I would never hurt you.”
Despite this being expected, Xaviera’s heart still quivered.
Boyd Drew gave a wry smile, “It’s all my fault for not coming to find you earlier, which led to you and Caleb Mamet getting married by mistake. However, our engagement is a fact. I am just trying to let you know who I am.”
“I am the fiancé selected by your grandfather. Even if you don’t marry me, I won’t hold anything against you or hurt you. We can still be friends.”
After a moment of silence in the air, Xaviera scoffed and ice filled her gaze.
“Boyd Drew, you’re ridiculous.”
A coldness seeped into Xaviera’s voice, “Don’t think I can’t figure out what you’re trying to say. Do you mean to imply that Caleb Mamet stole your woman? And then you play the magnanimous man? You really do look like a manipulative person!”
“Whether you are my fiancé is still to be verified. Even if my grandfather is not by my side, I still have my senior fellow and Master Uland. Do you think I would be tricked easily? You may think highly of yourself, but don’t take others for fools. Unlike some women, I won’t believe your lies!”
The smile on Boyd Drew’s face gradually disappeared as his eyes filled with hostility.
His pale fingers tightly squeezed the necklace, his voice growing darker, “Miss Evans, so you do not trust me?”
Xaviera scoffed.
“Since that’s the case, Drew will not insist anymore. But remember, since I have accepted your grandfather’s token, I will guard you according to his wishes. Regardless of whether you like me or not, I will fulfill my promise.”
