Chapter 980 -980: He Just Wants to Accompany
At this moment, she wished she could kick Caleb Mamet out with one foot and throw out that damn alarm clock as well. If he wasnât her husband, she would definitely make his death look ugly.
âMrs. Mamet, your body is too weak, so I decided to let you join me for morning runs in order for you to develop a healthy lifestyle. Otherwise, how will you be able to fight me?â
Xaviera Evans took a deep breath. She couldnât fight her own husband, so she had to bear it. She snapped, âIâm not weak!â
She wrapped herself in the quilt, not wanting to deal with Caleb Mamet. Her sleepiness was severe, so even if the king came, it wouldnât be possible to disturb her sleep today.
Caleb Mamet leaned in and lifted the quilt, smiling slightly, âMrs. Mamet, if you have anything to curse, just say it out loud. Holding it in must be uncomfortable!â
Xavieraâs eyelid twitched; Caleb Mamet was really a cunning person. She couldnât hide anything from him.
âI guessed it right; youâre cursing me in your heart.â Caleb Mametâs tone was teasing, and he didnât force her to continue running. Instead, he leaned against her back and hugged her tightly, whispering in her ear, âXaviera, what are you cursing me for?â
His voice was gentle, but Xavieraâs body trembled in fear. In her mind, she recalled Yigol Mametâs words: My brother is very strange; the more peaceful and gentle he is, the more terrifying he becomes. One second heâs talking to me gently, and Iâm thinking to myself how fortunate I am to have such a good-tempered brother. The next second, Iâm being beaten up. So, Xaviera, you have to be very careful. If you encounter such a situation, you must apologize immediately and not even think about resisting. Otherwise, you will suffer even worse retaliation.
Later, Yigol reminded her: Caleb Mamet liked her so much, he would definitely not hit her. But a man as cunning as him would definitely find a way to punish her.
Thinking of this, Xaviera couldnât help but shudder, but her mouth seemed to be out of her control. The words slipped from her heart, âYou dog of a man! Cunning man! If you disturb my sleep again, Iâll kick you out!â
As soon as the words fell, Caleb Mametâs mouth curled up slightly, revealing a charming smile. Without giving Xaviera a chance to react, his passionate kiss landed on her lips, ferocious and intense, as if he wanted to devour her.
It took a long while before Xaviera felt short of breath, her lips numb, her mind blank. Then the manâs gentle voice sounded, âWill you still curse me?â
Only then did Xaviera confirm Yigolâs words, Caleb Mamet was indeed a terrible man. She knew that if she didnât get up, she might be kissed to suffocation by him.
Twenty minutes later.
Xaviera followed Caleb Mamet on the morning run with a face full of resentment. This was not exercise; it was pure torture!
Caleb Mamet looked back at her, âAre you unhappy?â
Xaviera rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.
âAlright, donât be angry.â Caleb Mamet coaxed softly, his deep voice full of indulgence and not a trace of impatience.
After their run, Caleb Mamet went upstairs to take a shower, while Xaviera sat on the couch, not wanting to move at all. Not far away, the conversation between Sean Price and the housekeeper could be heard: âThe CEO gets up for a morning run every day, and it has been the same for so many years. Mrs. Mamet is not used to waking up early; why did he call her today? She doesnât seem very happy.â
The housekeeper looked at Xaviera sitting on the sofa and explained, âHe has been doing everything by himself all these years. Now that he has someone he likes, he wants his loved one to participate in everything he does. He is not forcing Mrs. Mamet to run; he just wants to accompany her.â
Sean Price sighed, âThe Mamet family and the Drew family are both not good to the CEO. He hasnât felt loved since he was a child, and he doesnât have many friends. Itâs not easy for him to have a wife, but she doesnât understand his feelings.â
Xavieraâs heart softened in an instant. So Caleb Mamet felt lonely, thatâs why he dragged her along for a morning run. He just hoped someone would talk to him instead of doing everything all by himself.
Thinking about this, Xaviera suddenly stood up. Upon seeing her leave, the housekeeper whispered to Sean, âSean, she heard our conversation. She shouldnât be mad at the CEO anymore, right?â
Sean Price nodded, âIn theory, she shouldnât be. But we still need to keep an eye on Steve Price. As long as he doesnât talk nonsense, our cover wonât be blown.â
After the two of them had breakfast, Xaviera remembered the conversation between Sean Price and the housekeeper, and her tone softened, âDo you always get up this early for a morning run?â
