Chapter 842: Chapter 842: Let Mr. Caleb Mamet Answer the Phone

After a while, the ringing continued, and she picked up the phone and left the bedroom. She stood at the study door, pushed it gently open to find Caleb not in the room. The sound of running water came from the bathroom.

“Caleb, your phone is ringing,” Xaviera Evans said.

The man’s deep voice came from the bathroom, “You answer it.”

Xaviera smirked: “This person has been calling you for a while; maybe it’s something urgent. It wouldn’t be appropriate for me to answer, would it?”

The sound of water stopped, and the man said without hesitation, “It’s fine.”

Xaviera hesitated for a few seconds with the phone in her hand, then answered the call and immediately put it on speaker.

...

The caller didn’t expect Caleb to answer her call. She gasped and then a pretentious female voice came through the phone.

“Mr. Caleb Mamet, I’m sorry to disturb you so early.”

Xaviera hesitated for a moment before recognizing the woman; it was Tracy Swift!

Tracy’s breathing seemed a little heavy as she asked nervously, “Mr. Mamet, did I interrupt your sleep? I’m truly sorry. I thought you’d be up by this time, so I dared to call you. I hope you don’t mind.”

After a few seconds of silence on the line, Xaviera sat down on the sofa, laughed softly, and said, “Miss Swift, if you knew you’d disturb him, why make the call?”

Tracy’s mouth twitched slightly. Under the scrutiny of Wright Swift, Mrs. Swift, and Sir Swift, she had to suppress her anger and feigned confusion: “Ah… did I dial the wrong number? Who are you?”

Xaviera lay on the sofa, casually asked: “Miss Swift, do you know what time it is now?”

“Six o’clock.”

“You call at six in the morning and then ask who I am? Stop playing dumb!” Xaviera didn’t give her any face.

Tracy’s face darkened with anger, her nails nearly dug into her palm.

Xaviera! That bitch!

“Oh, it’s Xaviera! I just didn’t react in time; please don’t take it personally! Is Mr. Mamet there? Why did you answer his phone? I remember he doesn’t like others touching his things; it’s not good for you to answer his phone casually.”

Xaviera snorted coldly, “Miss Swift, I hope you understand that I am Caleb’s wife, and it’s natural for me to answer his phone. As the self-proclaimed noble lady of Imperial City, isn’t it impolite for you to call Caleb at this time?”

Tracy’s eyes were filled with resentment. She suppressed her anger, her voice trembling slightly, “Xaviera, you have misunderstood, I didn’t mean it that way. I just wanted to remind you so you wouldn’t have misunderstandings with your husband. Don’t keep thinking I want to harm you; I’m doing it for your own good!”

“No need.”

Xaviera asked coldly, “Could you please explain why you called my husband so early in the morning?”

Tracy clenched her fist tightly, and her gentle voice began to change, “I do have something to discuss with Mr. Mamet. Can you give the phone to him?”

Xaviera raised an eyebrow, “Tell me what you want, he’s in the shower.”

The word “shower” instantly made Tracy’s face pale. How could Xaviera, that little bitch who seduces men, brag about such a thing? Doesn’t she feel ashamed?

Tracy’s fingers gripping the phone turned white, and her body trembled slightly, “It’s about business matters; you wouldn’t understand. Just give the phone to Mr. Mamet.”

“Miss Swift, are your ears not working? I said he’s in the shower and can’t answer the phone. Besides, the Swift family and the Mamet Corporation have never had any business dealings. You called him early in the morning to discuss business; doesn’t that excuse sound far-fetched to you?”

Tracy knew Xaviera was mockingly taunting her. Enraged, her breathing became rapid, “Xaviera, don’t misunderstand me! I wouldn’t call Mr. Mamet without a good reason. As his wife, you should be more tolerant and not make a fuss over a single phone call, right?”

“I’m making a fuss? Miss Swift, do you have any self-awareness at all?”

Xaviera snorted coldly and nonchalantly smiled: “Calling early in the morning can easily wake people up. Next time, make sure to call when I’m not around.”

“Xaviera!” Tracy couldn’t help but yell, realizing her emotional outburst, she immediately took a deep breath and said with a gentle tone: “You’ve really misunderstood me. I didn’t mean anything. I’m genuinely trying to discuss business matters with Mr. Mamet.”
