Chapter 553: Chapter 553: The Fish is Already Hooked
The air was once again filled with silence.
The person on the other side of the phone was shocked, their mouth twitching slightly: “Miss, what do you think we should do with this order? We are…”
Xaviera’s eyes narrowed slightly. Zara Woods was really stubborn. Not only did she poison her, but she also wanted to hire someone to assassinate her, afraid that she might survive.
Unfortunately… Miss Woods has really bad luck. The poison she used was personally developed by her, and the assassin she hired was also her subordinate.
Xaviera cut to the chase: “Accept it!”
“This…”
“She wants to kill me. If you refuse, she will hire someone else to do it. Better use our own people, so that we can rest assured.”
…
On the other side, Zara received a text message on her phone, with just an OK gesture from the other party.
She smiled triumphantly, silently waiting for the news of Xaviera’s death.
“Mr. Drew, it’s been so long since the incident, have you convinced Mr. Mamet to let me marry Caleb so I can be the new Mrs. Mamet?”
Boyd Drew’s voice was icy: “Yes.”
Zara Woods looked self-satisfied, momentarily forgetting the stinging sensation on her face.
…
The next day.
Will Mamet sent out invitations, asking friends and family to come to the Mamet Old Mansion to announce something important.
Offshoot family members of the Mamet family arrived one after another, but only Caleb was absent.
Yigol Mamet was sweating nervously, asking his assistant, “Where’s Caleb? The old man invited so many people, there must be something going on. He isn’t going to announce Boyd Drew inheriting the family property, is he? And then hand over the Mamet family affairs to Boyd Drew!”
The assistant quickly replied: “We’ve already called Mr. Caleb Mamet and sent someone to pick him up, but there’s still no news from his side!”
Yigol was so anxious that his eyebrows were on fire. “Call him again and tell him to hurry over, if he comes any later, the Mamet family will belong to Boyd Drew! We can’t let that happen! I have to stop them!”
Will Mamet and Jenny Green appeared hand in hand, with Boyd Drew standing by their side, and even the Woods family attended the event. Only Caleb was absent.
Everyone knew what Will Mamet probably intended to do – to hand over the headship of the Mamet family to Boyd Drew.
At this moment, Caleb was leisurely lounging on the sofa, flipping through some documents, and said indifferently: “Today, Boyd Drew will not be inheriting the Mamet family.”
Sean Price was puzzled: “Why not?”
“There’s no need to invite the Woods family members if Boyd Drew were to inherit the Mamet family.”
Caleb looked at Zara Woods’ name on the document, his eyes narrowing slightly and flashing an icy gleam, “Did you get the medicine?”
Sean Price took a small glass bottle out of his pocket, “Mrs. Mamet gave me the medicine this morning. It’s the same poison that Zara Woods used, but Mrs. Mamet said that this poison is too overbearing. Unless necessary…”
Before he could finish, Sean’s voice choked.
There was a coldness in the man’s eyes, as the deep pupils emitted bursts of cold light, revealing murderous intent. He casually said, “She’s as good as dead.”
Sean Price shuddered and lowered his head.
Zara Woods wanted to poison Mrs. Mamet to death, and the CEO would never let her get away with it!
Caleb sneered, “My father has invited the Mamet family’s relatives and friends to attend and announce something, so I guess I know what he is up to. Let’s go and watch the spectacle.”
Sean Price was stunned, “Go to the Mamet Mansion? Then Mrs. Mamet…”
“Sean Price.” Caleb slowly said, “Let me handle this kind of thing. If I were to let Mrs. Mamet personally kill Zara Woods, I’m afraid it would dirty her hands.”
…
On the other side, Albert Sullivan’s face was full of shock as he looked at Xaviera, “Xaviera, you’re taking this order too?”
Xaviera blinked her eyes, “Why wouldn’t I? If I don’t accept it, she’ll go find someone else. Miss Woods poisoned me at the horse racing track and hired a killer. She’s trying everything to kill me. It seems that in her mind, I’m as good as dead.”
Albert frowned, “So what’s next? Are you going to send someone to kill yourself?”
Xaviera couldn’t help but laugh, tossing her phone to Albert, “The fish has taken the bait. What happens next will be really interesting.”
On the phone, there was a text message. After Xaviera sent an OK gesture, Zara Woods immediately asked her when she would take action. Xaviera’s reply was today.
She smiled slightly, “Today, Chairman Will Mamet invited many relatives and friends to the Mamet Mansion to announce something big, but he didn’t invite Caleb, the head of Mamet family, nor informed me. Instead, he invited the Woods family.”
