Chapter 836: Chapter 836: Demanding an Apology

Caleb Mamet’s mouth slowly curved up, while the Drew family still looked pale, wondering how to persuade him.

Xaviera Evans casually said, “Does Miss Wendy Drew have a grudge against Boyd Drew? He could clearly avoid jail time, but with all this commotion, who knows what will happen now.”

High-ranking members of the Drew Group glared at Vivian Drew. They didn’t actually care about Boyd Drew, but as the current acting CEO of the Drew Corporation, he represented the image of the Drew family. If he went to jail, the Drew family’s reputation would be completely ruined.

At this moment, one high-ranking member broke down and pleaded, “Mr. Caleb Mamet, we are willing to destroy all the perfumes and still compensate you twice the price, a total of 1.8 billion dollars!”

Xaviera Evans smiled meaningfully. The Drew family had gone from requesting that charges be dropped, to continuing to sell the perfume and paying 1.8 billion dollars in compensation, to now deciding to destroy all the perfume and still paying 1.8 billion dollars.

The Drew family’s constant concessions showed that they had lost their confidence. They originally planned to recoup some funds from selling the perfume, but have now painfully given up on that, too.

...

Caleb Mamet ignored the executive’s words and continued holding Xaviera’s hand as they slowly walked out of the banquet hall.

Everyone stopped breathing, and the surrounding air seemed to solidify. They had already given in so much; why was Mr. Mamet still not satisfied?

A high-ranking Drew member’s face was full of horror. “Mr. Mamet, what else do you want?”

Xaviera Evans paused her steps and turned to scan the crowd. She chuckled softly, “Caleb has never said what he wants. He doesn’t need money and isn’t interested in the 1.8 billion dollars. He doesn’t have time to go to court with Boyd Drew. The reason he still hasn’t forgiven the Drew family is because of what Miss Wendy Drew said.”

She spoke unhurriedly before looking breezily at Vivian Drew.

“Why not let Vivian Drew apologize directly! As long as Miss Wendy Drew is sincere, perhaps Caleb will drop the charges. After all, we don’t care and the decision to sue or not depends on our mood. As for apologizing, that’s up to you.”

Xaviera Evans’ words instantly stirred up a thousand waves, with various expressions from the crowd, most of them angry. In particular, Madam Drew’s expression was as dark as ink, and her wrists trembled ceaselessly.

Everyone knew that the couple genuinely didn’t care. The more Xaviera took that attitude, the angrier everyone became.

Caleb Mamet held Xaviera’s hand and completely disregarded what she had just said. He looked at her with adoring eyes. “Do you not like the dishes here? When we get home, I’ll have the chef prepare a new set for you.”

The two talked as if no one else was present and paid no attention to the anxious Drew family members.

“Mr…Mr. Drew!” The Drew high-ranking member’s voice trembled as he looked to Sir Drew in desperation, hoping he could step forward and take charge of the situation, or else the Drew Corporation would be ruined in Boyd Drew’s hands.

Sir Drew’s face was terrifyingly dark, his aged face contorted with anger and disgust, yet he had no choice but to humbly appease Caleb Mamet.

Seeing Sir Drew remain silent, the high-ranking member turned his gaze to Vivian Drew. Vivian was already in her forties and had a rocky marriage, leading her to frequently live with the Drew family. Now, she had again upset the Drew family, angering Mr. Mamet, and making everyone else bear the consequences.

The banquet hall was silent for two minutes, yet it felt so long. Finally, someone couldn’t help but speak, “If Miss Drew were still alive, there’s no way Mr. Mamet would…”

Winni Drew was Caleb Mamet’s birth mother. If she were still alive, why would Mr. Mamet target the Drew family? As the saying goes, don’t look at the monk’s face but the Buddha’s face. Even if he had no relationship with the Drew family, he would have to consider Winni Drew’s dignity.

Hearing others mention Winni Drew, Vivian Drew’s face changed and she clenched her teeth. That familiar feeling was back!

When Winni Drew was alive, everyone said that Miss Drew was gentle and generous, a true noble lady. Winni Drew completely overshadowed her, and now, so many years have passed, yet Winni Drew’s son was still making things difficult for her in public, asking her to apologize?

Why did Caleb Mamet deserve that?

Madam Drew was so angry that she felt dizzy. After she became the mistress, she and Vivian Drew together had suppressed Winni Drew. Later, when Winni Drew died, they took over the entire Drew family, thinking that no one would threaten them again.

But who knew that the weak Winni Drew would actually give birth to such an outstanding son? At a young age, Caleb Mamet had gained control over the economic lifeline of Libanan.

If they didn’t bow to Winni Drew back then, they wouldn’t bow to Caleb Mamet now!
