Chapter 952 Separation Missing

Chapter 952: Chapter 952: Separation, Missing Chapter 952 -952: Separation, Missing “Hmm, my bad.” Caleb Mamet looked at her indulgently, then hesitated before speaking: “I have to go to Fenlon tomorrow morning and will probably be back in a week.”

Xaviera Evans’s face fell: “Tomorrow morning? What’s so urgent?”

Usually, Caleb would arrange business trips a few days in advance, but this time there was barely any preparation time. It was already evening, but he suddenly announced he’d be leaving in the morning. It seemed odd.

Caleb didn’t directly answer her question, instead changing the subject: “While I’m on this trip, is there anything you want me to bring back for you?”

Xaviera thought seriously for a moment. Inside her room were mountains of jewelry and cosmetics, and clothes filled the entire closet. She shook her head: “No, I don’t lack anything.”

“Mrs. Mamet, the project I’m negotiating this time is an eight hundred million dollars order. I’m earning all this money just for you to spend, yet you want nothing?”

Seeing Xaviera furrowing her brows, deep in thought, Caleb laughed helplessly: “I won’t pressure you. I’ll just pick out a gift for you myself. Coincidentally, there’s a large auction being held in Fenlon. I saw the brochure, and there’s a nice set of jewelry there.”

Xaviera murmured softly: “I already have too much jewelry in my room that I haven’t worn yet, and you still want to give me more? You always buy me so many gifts when you go on business trips, it puts a lot of pressure on me!”

After hearing Xaviera’s words, Caleb couldn’t help but laugh. His deep eyes were full of affection as he gently stroked her cheek, whispering: “I just want to give you lots of gifts. Even if you wanted the stars in the sky, I’d find a way to get them for you.”

Xaviera immediately blushed and, feeling embarrassed, bowed her head. She rushed upstairs as if to escape: “Um… it’s getting late. I should help you pack.”

Watching Xaviera’s hastily retreating figure, Caleb laughed clear and bright, feeling extremely delighted.

…

Early the next morning.

Caleb got up early, and Xaviera, with her eyes closed, heard his gentle movements and slow footsteps, careful not to wake her. She had planned to see him off after he’d finished packing, but eventually couldn’t resist her overwhelming sleepiness and drifted off.

By the time Xaviera opened her eyes, it was already eight o’clock. She pouted in annoyance since she missed sending him off. Now, she wouldn’t see him again for many days.

She peeked out, seeing a note on the bedside table with words elegant and flowing: [Mrs. Mamet, take good care of yourself while I’m away. Call me if you need anything.]

Xaviera smiled happily. Although this man seemed cold, he always spoiled her in every possible way, treating her like a child.

When she had married Caleb, it was just a decision made on impulse. But at some point, her heart was gradually invaded by him, with no more room for anyone else. By the time she realized it, she had already fallen deeply in love with Caleb, unable to extricate herself.

Xaviera lowered her gaze, looking at the empty bed. Her heart couldn’t help but feel a little sour. They had only been apart for one morning, yet she already missed Caleb terribly. Before, when Caleb was with her all day, she hadn’t felt this way at all. Only now did she realize how difficult it was to be apart.

Leaning on the bed, she felt weak all over, her heart filled with sadness. Suddenly, her cell phone rang. It was a call from Caleb.

The moment Xaviera’s spirits lifted, and the longing in her heart turned to joy. Caleb understood her too well, knowing she missed him, so he eagerly called as soon as he had time. She hastily answered the call, her voice delicate: “Caleb, why are you calling me? Shouldn’t you be on the plane right now? Just thinking about being apart for so long, I…”

“Mrs. Mamet, think carefully with your little head. Of course, I haven’t boarded the plane yet because it’s delayed.” Caleb’s voice carried a hint of disdain.

The tenderness in Xaviera’s heart vanished instantly. This jerky man didn’t even know how to say anything nice when calling! If she’d known it was going to be like this, she might as well not have answered the call at all.

Seeing that she wasn’t talking, Caleb softened his tone a bit: “Xaviera, it’s time for me to go.”

His deep and magnetic voice was filled with endless love: “Baby, be good and wait for me to return!”

Xaviera’s dissatisfaction disappeared instantly, and she smiled enchantedly. Caleb’s voice was so beautiful and captivating!

After hanging up the call, Xaviera’s gaze grew desolate. She couldn’t control her longing at all! Oh, Caleb! Caleb, how can I live without you?!
