Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband - Season 2 Episode 39

And what do they mean by ‘uncouth‘? She didn’t even know who everyone here was, how was she supposed to greet them?

The noblewoman snorted coldly, as though she knew precisely what Xaviera Evans was thinking, and spoke directly: “Xaviera, surely you must know who I am? You’ve been married into the Mamet family for quite some time now, yet you’ve never bothered to get to know the elders? Isn’t that a bit too arrogant?”

Everyone turned to look at Xaviera, even though no one openly criticized her, their disdain was clear in their eyes.

The noblewoman continued to mock: “Truly a country bumpkin with no manners, I wonder what Caleb Mamet ever saw in you, I bet it’s because of your foxy looks that you got this far.”

Xaviera was so angry her cheeks puffed up. She

wanted to retort, but after all, these were Caleb’s

family members. She didn’t want to be rude, so she could only swallow her frustration.

Just then, Caleb Mamet asked: “Who are you?”

His gaze floated over the noblewoman, and she froze instantly. What was going on? Why would Caleb suddenly ask her this? Was it because he genuinely didn’t recognize her or was he standing up for Xaviera?

Various thoughts flashed through her mind, and the noblewoman mustered a forced smile: “Caleb, there’s no need to pretend not to recognize me for the sake of a woman. After all, your status speaks for itself. The wife

you marry represents your reputation. If she embarrasses you, it would be rather difficult, wouldn’t

it?”

The others breathed a sigh of relief.

They had thought Caleb didn’t recognize this noblewoman. Usually, Caleb rarely came back to the Mamet Old Mansion, and their interactions were brief. From their standing, Caleb didn’t need to take them seriously.

But if he outright denied knowing them, it would be

too embarrassing. Now they assumed Caleb pretended not to recognize her to spare Xaviera from embarrassment, but they did not approve.

They were Caleb’s relatives, after all, Xaviera was merely a wife. Could she be more important than them?

Just as the Mamet family was feeling dissatisfied, Caleb replied indifferently: “Indeed, I don’t recognize you, so who are you?”

He continued airily: “After all, I’m busy with work obligations and important matters, I really don’t need to bear with these random people, do I?”

His words were hefty, and the noblewoman turned pale. She never thought Caleb would dare disrespect her in front of so many people by calling her a ‘random person.‘ But there was nothing she could do given Caleb’s status; she didn’t dare to rebut.

Caleb didn’t even look at her; he took Xaviera’s arm and turned to leave: “These people are not important. You don’t need to remember them. I’ll take you to see grandma.”

Xaviera nodded vigorously, thinking that Caleb was

absolutely brilliant!

Was this the charm of the head of the Mamet family?!

However, before they had gotten a few steps, Mrs. Mamet suddenly stood up: “Caleb, your grandmother is napping. We’ve been waiting for your return. Now that you’re back, without saying a word, you want to go see grandmother. If others see this, they might think I’m mistreating you, since I’m such an

unpleasant sight.”

Her gaze casually fell on a young, beautiful woman sitting obediently on the sofa. The woman was about twenty years old, her almond eyes constantly shifting to Caleb, then shyly dropping downwards.

Mrs. Mamet continued: “I know you don’t like Vita Coriell. Since you’re not fond of her, I won’t force you. Look here, this is your cousin, fresh from university graduation. I think your company could use a female secretary, and since she’s a university grad, maybe you could give her a try.”

The nearby noblewoman chimed in enthusiastically: “Right, this girl is beautiful and has a great

temperament. Plus, she is a grad from a prestigious

university, much better than some people!”

She glanced at Xaviera disdainfully, then with a flattering smile, added: “Caleb, she studied design. Doesn’t the Mamet Corporation want to break into the clothing design industry, aiming to create the most high–end designs? This girl is perfect for that. With her there, the company can save a lot of trouble.”

After she said this, she signaled the young woman to say something.
