Chapter 1106: Chapter 1106: Less Nonsense, Please
Boyd Drew looked smugly at the scene before him, it wouldnât be easy for Xaviera Evans to clear Caleb Mametâs name. Today, if Caleb didnât give up the 5% stake, he would be disgraced and might even lose his position as a council member.
With a hint of triumph in his eyes, Boyd slowly approached and spoke softly, "Mr. Caleb Mamet."
As if he hadnât heard him, Caleb paid him no attention. But Boyd remained gentle and patient on the surface as he helplessly shook his head, gently persuading, "Mr. Mamet, itâs been so long, you should go see your grandfather."
His voice wasnât loud, but everyone gathered in the hall. Naturally, those nearby heard it and looked at the two.
Boyd wanted everyone to hear it, so theyâd know of Calebâs scandal, and he wondered how the council member would keep his position!
Caleb paused and turned his head slightly, looking down condescendingly at Boyd.
Seeing him not responding, Boyd continued gently, "Regardless, your grandfather fell ill because of you and is still in a coma. Even though you didnât grow up in the Drew family, heâs still your kin."
Xaviera heard what Boyd said and showed disdain in her eyes.
Calebâs eyes drooped, his whole body exuding a powerful pressure. His thin lips parted, and he said casually, "Mr. Drew, my time is precious. Please spare me the nonsense."
Before Boyd could speak, one of the Drew Groupâs high-level members standing by his side stepped forward. He didnât know what had happened in the hall and confronted Caleb indignantly, "Mr. Caleb Mamet, itâs time to drop the act!"
Xavieraâs lips curled up, as expected, the Drew family had planned it all - to attack Caleb after the meeting and accuse him of being heartless and unfilial in front of everyone.
In peopleâs eyes, Boyd had always been gentle and refined. He wouldnât openly accuse Caleb, but someone would do it for him - this high-level member had been by Boydâs side at the previous perfume event, Xaviera remembered him.
Whatever this man was about to say, it must have been instructed by Boyd. Next, he would surely accuse Caleb of angering Mr. Drew to illness in front of everyone, putting him on the moral pyre.
"Mr. Caleb Mamet, do you want me to expose your deeds in front of everyone?" The high-level member furiously asked, making the unknowing people think Caleb had done something unforgivable.
Xaviera showed a meaningful smile because Vivian Drewâs face had already turned horribly gloomy. She wanted to step forward and stop it, but the disdainful crowd around her left her without the courage, fearing she would become the target again.
Those in the hall who knew the truth didnât immediately stand up for Caleb, all looking scornfully at the Drew family members. Their heads hung low, faces pale, like defeated roosters.
Vivian gritted her teeth. The Drew family had already lost all face today - they couldnât be the laughingstock again. She braced herself, took a step forward, and croaked, "Boyd, forget it. Today, Mr. Mamet..."
"What did I do?" A cold voice interrupted Vivian, Calebâs face emotionless, his narrow eyes slightly narrowing as he stared at the high-level member.
The high-level member shuddered in fear, but soon prepared to retort. Vivianâs face paled in shock. Caleb must know about the Drew familyâs exposed plan. Caleb deliberately interrupted her to lure Boyd into another humiliation in public.
No! The Drew family couldnât lose face again!
Before Vivian could stop him, the high-level member shouted, red in the face, "Mrs. Mamet hatched a plan to deceive Mr. Drew and snatch our Drew familyâs 5% stake, angering Mr. Drew to illness! Am I supposed to say all this before youâre satisfied?"
"I thought of you as part of the Drew family and didnât want to make a fuss, so you wouldnât lose face. But you just kept pushing, focused only on our familyâs shares. Even when Mr. Drew had fallen ill, you still pressured us to hand over shares. Since Lord fell ill, you never even visited him. Heâs been sick because of you, but you have no guilt. This is unfilial behavior!"
The audience fell silent, and those who already knew the truth bore mocking expressions, turning their gaze to Boyd.
