Chapter 461: Chapter 461: The Real Battle Begins

Jenny Green was so angry that she gritted her teeth, “Caleb, could your uncle be lying?”

“Now that there’s no evidence, you guys can claim whatever you want!”

“Mrs. Mamet, I was the one who hit your brother.” Caleb’s voice was cold, his tone indifferent, and his gaze swept over Wade Green as if looking at garbage.

Xaviera Evans was stunned for a few seconds, since she was the one who hit Wade Green, not Caleb!

She didn’t mean to refute because she did hit him, but it was just a minor injury. If she had to take responsibility, it would only be for some medical expenses.

Xaviera looked at Caleb with concern, leaned a little closer, and heard –

[Everyone from the Mamet family is here. If they find out she’s the one who hit someone, there’s no telling what unpleasant things they’ll say.]

[And if this goes around, how could Mrs. Mamet continue to pretend to be weak?]

Xaviera was speechless: “…”

[Actually, Mrs. Mamet looks quite cute when she pretends to be weak, and she seems to be happy. As long as she likes it, I’m willing to go along with it.]

Xaviera knew that Caleb’s intelligence had long seen through her little schemes, and her “weak” image had already crumbled. What she didn’t expect was that her senior fellow indulged her in continuing to pretend and also enjoyed playing along.

Then…

[I can’t let Grandma know that Xaviera’s weakness is all an act, or else…]

What? Xaviera quickly got closer.

[If Grandma knew that Xaviera had a fierce temperament like her, where would I get any happiness in the future?]

Xaviera widened her eyes and lowered her voice, “Caleb, were you beaten by your grandma when you were young?”

Madam Mamet had a fiery temper, and no one in the Mamet family dared to disobey her. Because of her protection, Caleb was not harmed by others.

Caleb smiled casually: “Grandma does have some thunderous methods, but in the Mamet family, this is the best way to establish authority, otherwise, how could you suppress these monsters?”

“But I’ve always been obedient and sensible, so Grandma wouldn’t discipline me, she only dealt with those disobedient descendants, like Mr. Mamet and that kid Yigol Mamet.”

Xaviera nodded thoughtfully, that made sense.

[How could I tell her I was beaten? Wouldn’t that make me look bad in front of her?]

Caleb thought to himself, not knowing that Xaviera had already heard him clearly.

Xaviera lowered her head, smiling slyly.

So, Caleb had been beaten by his elders when he was young. No wonder he was so skilled when disciplining Yigol – it was all experience from his childhood.

At the moment, Jenny Green and Will Mamet were still arguing and completely disregarded the fact of poisoning. Instead, they accused Caleb of disrespecting his uncle by hitting him.

Jenny Green’s face had softened. She saw that Madam Mamet was about to fall asleep. Once she slept, the whole Mamet family would be under their control.

Just then, Albert Sullivan’s assistant walked in, whispered a few words into Albert’s ear, and then Albert and several members of the Medical Association stared, their faces changing.

Xaviera smiled meaningfully, and the real struggle had begun.

Albert asked solemnly, “Mrs. Mamet, I really can’t understand how Mr. Caleb Mamet offended you? And how our Medical Association offended you?”

Mr. Mamet looked puzzled – he didn’t understand what this had to do with the Medical Association and why Albert came to the Mamet family with the people from the Medical Association?

Earlier when Albert helped Madam Mamet enter the room, Mr. Mamet thought Albert was there to treat Madam Mamet. Now, it seems to be about Caleb.

Albert spoke sternly: “Mrs. Mamet just said she didn’t poison Mr. Caleb Mamet, but the sachets of mesmerizing fragrance thrown into Maple House could cause hallucinations and accelerate the onset of the toxicity in Mr. Caleb Mamet’s body!”

“Don’t be in a hurry to argue. We, the Medical Association, always speak with evidence. This mesmerizing fragrance happens to have been obtained from our Medical Association. Due to its toxicity, buyers must register. I’ve already investigated, and the buyer of the mesmerizing fragrance was Wade Green! He came to the Mamets’ house to poison Mr. Caleb Mamet, and getting beaten is actually a light punishment.”

“For so many years, our Medical Association has been trying to detoxificate Mr. Caleb Mamet, but Mrs. Mamet instigated her brother to poison him instead, triggering his toxicity. When that happens, where will our Medical Association’s reputation be? Mrs. Mamet, what is your intention!”
