Chapter 218: Chapter 218: The sudden mental induction
Translator: 549690339
Xaviera Evans got up in a daze and saw Caleb Mamet sitting at the dining table eating his breakfast as soon as she descended the stairs.
He seemed refreshed, which annoyed her because she had sacrificed her sleep to save him last night. Without acknowledging her efforts, he had started eating his breakfast. He was a true jerk!
After she finished cursing him in her mind, Caleb suddenly turned to look at her.
Xaviera felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
It scared the hell out of me! She had just finished cursing him in her mind, and then he suddenly looked at her.
That was horrifying!
Caleb raised his eyebrows.
When Xaviera came down, he clearly heard, âHe looked very energetic, and it was all because of her. She worked tirelessly to save him last night. He didnât say a word of thanks and had started eating his breakfast. He truly was a jerk!â There was a bit of confusion in Calebâs eyes as he looked at Xaviera again.
At that moment, Xaviera was smiling at him with a face full of flattery, hers cheeks trembling with an enchanting laugh.
Caleb smiled ambiguously. He thought that she was trying to help him recover his sense of taste and wouldnât have cursed him so early in the morning.
Then, he heard another sentence.
âCaleb looks so weird. Is it because Iâm looking drained! Itâs all because of your behavior, jerk. Iâm almost exhausted!â
It was Xavieraâs voice.
Caleb put down his cutlery, a flash of doubt in his eyes, âSteve Price, did you hear Mrs. Mamet speaking?â
Steve Price quickly shook his head, âI didnât hear anything! You must be hearing things. Your eyes havenât even recovered and now youâre saying your ears are playing tricks on you? My poor bossâŠâ
âShut up!â
Caleb spoke coldly, then turned to Xaviera, âMrs. Mamet looks unwell.â
Xaviera couldnât help but laugh.
ââIs the jerk displeased with me? I didnât even get to sleep well because I was busy trying to detoxificate him. My whole body aches and he doesnât even care!â ââIt wasnât easy saving you. Today, I deserve a break and a great meal!â This time, Caleb was sure that he could hear Xavieraâs inner thoughts.
Unbelievable⊠Mrs. Mametâs inner thoughts were as fascinating as she was.
Did she want a great meal?
Caleb said leisurely, âSteve Price, get Mrs. Mametâs personal chef.â
After the personal chef arrived and learned that Mrs. Mamet was injured last night, he cooked some mild and nourishing dishes. He kind-heartedly suggested, âMrs. Mametâs body is weak and her inflammation is high. Itâs better to eat less spicy and fatty food and to stick to a light diet.â
Xaviera felt less excited as soon as she heard this.
Before she went to bed last night, she was thinking that as soon as Caleb woke up, she would tell him how she saved his life last night. She hoped he would be grateful and would give her a few kisses, at least. He would then take her out for barbeque!
However, not only was she unable to kiss him, she could no longer have barbeque and had to stick to a light diet. Xaviera was cursing internally.
ââI want to eat barbeque! This jerk is too annoying! Not only wonât he take me for barbeque, he wonât even kiss me!â
ââCaleb! Damn you! I want barbeque!â
Caleb got up briskly, wrapped his arms around her waist and leaned in close, his hot breath spraying onto her face, âWant to go out and eat?â
Xaviera nodded furiously, her mouth watering, âYes, I want to eatâŠâ
The man curled his lips into a smile, tenderly pressing his forehead against hers, but he didnât kiss her, âBarbeque is not allowed, Mrs. Mamet. Your body is weak and canât endure oily food.â
Xaviera was gazing at his lips, gleaming in her eyes. She smiled mischievously, âIf we canât eat, we canât eat. Whatever Caleb says, Iâll listen. I want a kiss-â With a subtle smile, Caleb leaned down and kissed her.
While he was kissing Xaviera, she snuggled up in his arms, being particularly obedient.
However, her mind was still racing.
ââI want to eat barbeque! Caleb, you jerk! I yearn for barbeque! Extra spicy!
Boo hoo! Iâve forgotten what barbeque tastes like! Jerk! Do you think a kiss can make me forget about it?â
Caleb looked into her eyes with deep emotions, his voice hoarse, âAre you upset because I wonât let Mrs. Mamet eat barbeque?â
Xaviera quickly squeezed out a smile, her whole face looking sycophantic,
âHow could I be? I love Caleb the most. Iâll listen to you.â
Then Caleb heard another wild burst of inner monologue..
