39 Chapter 39: Will We Go Home

Together?

Outside the building, Gaby Rome was excitedly hugging Xaviera Evans‘ neck: “Evans, why did you suddenly agree to cooperate with the Mamet Corporation? You don’t have to force yourself, don’t just agree to work with them because of me.”

1. 1.

At least wait until after meeting with the people from the Mamet Corporation before agreeing.

Xaviera rolled her eyes.

After shaking off the annoying school officials, Caleb Mamet and Steve Price spotted two figures standing outside the building.

Gaby was hugging Xaviera intimately, talking to her

nonstop.

Xaviera mostly listened silently, occasionally nodding

in agreement.

One was quiet, the other chatty, and they seemed strangely harmonious.

Steve secretly glanced at Caleb’s expression, then casually said: “Well… it seems that Mrs. Price and Gaby Rome get along really well… I remember Gaby saying that Xaviera was his little sister from Lohill, so it’s normal for them to have a lot to say after not seeing each other for so long…”

Caleb looked expressionlessly at Gaby’s arm around Xaviera’s neck.

Gaby suddenly felt a chill on his back, turning around inexplicably, just in time to see Caleb and Steve coming down the stairs. He waved: “Hey Caleb, come here, let me introduce you to my sister…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Caleb stopped three meters in front of them, asking: “Shall we go home together?”

Gaby: “Huh? Are we having a gathering at your place

today?”

Xaviera pinched her brow: “Let’s go together.”

She didn’t want to listen to Gaby’s chatter anymore!

“Alright.”

Caleb nodded indifferently and headed towards the

parking lot.

Xaviera threw off Gaby’s arm from her shoulder, casually said let’s go, and really left.

Gaby looked at their departing figures with a dazed

expression…

What was going on?

He grabbed the fleeing Steve, questioning him: “How does my sister know Caleb? When did they meet? How

come I don’t know about this?”

Steve hesitated: “Maybe… they haven’t known each other for that long?”

Not knowing each other for long and going home together?

Going home together?!

“Damn it, something’s wrong, Steve, be honest with me, what’s the deal with them?”

“Well, it’s nothing much, probably just a legal husband–and–wife relationship after getting a marriage certificate.”

After saying that, he took advantage of Gaby’s stunned

state, forcefully broke free and ran away.

Meanwhile, Gaby was carefully recalling what he said: got a marriage certificate… a legal… husband and wife relationship?

His sister got married to Caleb?!

No, the one who got a marriage certificate with Caleb was his sister?!

Holy shit!

Xaviera thought she would be faced with Caleb’s endless questions, even preparing excuses in advance, but Caleb didn’t ask a single question!

Aside from Steve occasionally glancing at her, their interaction was no different than usual.

Not to mention asking about the Lohill matter, Caleb hadn’t even brought up the new product collaboration with the Mamet Corporation!

Xaviera’s bottled–up frustration simply vanished along the way.

After returning to the villa, she stomped her way up to

the third floor.

At that moment, a birthday email reminder popped up.

Xaviera slowed down.

Mortimer’s birthday was coming up… Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

In the past, she would just perfunctorily send an animated “happy birthday” to him, but this year, after consulting with Mortimer on so many questions, she couldn’t just brush him off.

Scratching her head, Xaviera thought about the impression Mortimer had given her. He had always been steady, but after their recent conversations, Xaviera felt that Mortimer should be quite young…

Let’s just make something random then!

In the study on the second floor.

While handling work, Steve asked Caleb, “Mr. President, your birthday is coming up. How do you want to celebrate it? Going back to the Mamet family mansion or having a party with friends?”

In previous years, it was one of these two activities, so Steve asked effortlessly.

But within a second, he realized and added: “You can also spend it with your wife.”

Caleb slammed a file on the table, “Do you think she’ll

celebrate my birthday? She doesn’t even know it’s my birthday!”

Steve: “..

What was this deep resentment about?

Xaviera’s phone call came at this moment. Steve looked at Caleb apprehensively, then quietly stepped aside and whispered, “Mrs. Price, what’s up?”

“Help me get some things.”

“What things?”

After Xaviera stated her requirements, Steve was silent for a while: “Mrs. Price, are you interested in

handicrafts? The president has a shop under his name specializing in handicrafts, and it’s fully equipped.”

“No, don’t tell him.”

Xaviera refused without hesitation.

Steve sensed something was off and hesitantly asked, “Mrs. Price, may I ask, do you have a specific purpose

in mind for these items?”

Why would she keep it a secret from Caleb?
