Chapter 802 -802: Perfume Exchange Event
Meredith nodded, agreeing with Mariaâs reasoning.
At this moment, Boyd Drew walked to the corner and whispered to his assistant, âGo buy some trauma medicine.â
âYes, Mr. Drew,â the assistant replied.
Meredith followed the sound and couldnât help but ask, âIs he Mortimerâs full brother?â
Maria looked at Boyd with a frown, âHe doesnât look like it! He doesnât resemble Mortimer at all and isnât as handsome as Mortimer either!â
Though Boyd was also quite handsome, he looked ordinary compared to Caleb Mamet. They were said to be blood brothers, but there was no resemblance between them.
Meredith reminded her, âYou canât judge a person just by their face. Caleb has been treated like an illegitimate child since he was young and now has a hostile relationship with the Drew family. Boyd, on the other hand, was raised with all of the Drew familyâs resources and has been groomed to be the successor of both the Mamet family and the Drew family. He has more than Caleb.â
Maria suddenly thought of her and her brotherâs experiences. They originally had a happy family, but the Swift family plotted against their parents, causing their deaths and taking over their home, driving them away.
Their predicament was quite similar to Calebâs. However, the difference was that Caleb became a god in Libanan, and even the combined powers of the Mamet and Drew families couldnât shake his status. She and her brother, on the other hand, didnât have the power to overthrow the Swift family yet, and they could only bide their time and wait for the right opportunity.
Ten minutes later, the assistant returned to the restroom.
Boyd lifted his pant leg, revealing a red and swollen knee while biting his teeth tightly.
âMr. Drew, what happened to you?â the assistant exclaimed.
Boyd recalled carefully. He had only seen Xaviera Evans once, hoping to probe the matter of Cold Night. However, he didnât know why he was so sure that Cold Night was already dead and why his knee started to hurt. What had happened during that encounter?
The assistant tentatively asked, âMr. Drew, who dared to offend you like this?â
Boyd frowned, thinking that the only person capable of hurting him was Xaviera Evans, but he didnât remember her hitting him. Could he have accidentally knocked his knee while kneeling on the ground?
After pondering for a while, Boyd said with certainty, âIt was Xaviera Evans.â
The assistantâs mouth twitched in disbelief, âWho? You mean Mrs. Mamet?â
Boyd nodded.
The assistant was speechless, thinking that Mrs. Mamet looked so fragile and weak, yet she managed to hurt Mr. Drew like this?
Maria, who was outside the restroom, also couldnât believe it, âHow is that possible? How could Black Tide be capable of beating anyone up? Boyd Drew obviously was hit by someone else, but he blames it on Black Tide?â
Inside the room, Boyd changed the subject, âHas the leader from the dark web arrived?â
The assistant replied, âThey arrived long ago and are waiting outside.â
In a short while, the assistant brought in the siblings. Meredith started, âMr. Drew, weâve found the information you asked us to investigate. Cold Night is indeed dead, and he had no family, so you can use his paintings without any worry.â
Maria instantly understood her brotherâs intention. Since Black Tide and Mortimer helped them, they would reciprocate by helping out the other party. Eventually, they could use Mortimerâs hand to deal with the Swift family, and Boyd would also be implicated, suffering significant losses.
This game was a mutually beneficial trade for both parties, as they would both take down their enemies without facing any consequences themselves.

A month later, all the companies in Libanan were preparing their limited edition New Yearâs products. The Mamet Corporation was also busy planning. Coincidentally, there was a perfume exchange event in Libanan, so the Mamet Corporation sent their perfumers to participate. As the CEO of the Mamet Corporation, Caleb attended the event to support his perfumers.
Xaviera was interested in perfumes, so she also went along.
As the two sat in the car, Caleb slowly asked, âMrs. Mamet, who do you think will win the New Year product competition this time?â
Xaviera replied with a grin, âIs there any need to ask? Of course, itâs the Mamet Corporation!â
âAre you sure? The companyâs perfumers have been poached by the Drew Corporation already, and thereâs no distinctive packaging to attract attention. It wonât be easy to win,â said Caleb nonchalantly.
Xaviera pouted, âMr. Caleb Mamet, I am your wife! Thereâs no need to hide anything from me! Although the perfumers under you are rookies, Iâve smelled the fragrances theyâve created, and I know what theyâve achieved. They are all perfume geniuses. With these geniuses under your wing, are you still afraid of losing?â
