Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband-Chapter 1637: Gain Something, Lose Something

"Caleb!"

Xaviera tossed the phone aside and rushed into the man’s arms.

Caleb caught her effortlessly and gently kissed her forehead, his voice hoarse but tender, "Xaviera, I’m sorry."

A simple sorry was enough? He kept such a big secret from her and made a decision on his own. Did he even consider her his wife?

"Didn’t you say you’d come back in a week?"

"I came back early because I was worried about you." Caleb’s eyes were full of tenderness, shining like stars as he held the petite woman in his arms.

"I have already withdrawn myself. All that’s left is to watch and see what happens next."

"Watch and see?" Xaviera felt stifled. "The Mamet Corporation’s stocks have plummeted, and the internet is full of criticism. Aren’t you worried?"

Caleb hadn’t informed the company’s top management of his plans, which naturally brought huge losses to the Mamet Corporation. If he didn’t show up, someone would definitely have ulterior motives.

"No rush. Just wait." Caleb spoke calmly.

There are gains and losses. To set a trap for Wayne Reiser, he couldn’t be too hasty. He had to wait for him to take the bait.

The next day.

Just as Xaviera guessed, Wayne Reiser and the Mamet family had started their move.

Old Sir Mamet directly announced that Caleb would be expelled from the Mamet family, and Will Mamet also declared that he would sever all father-son ties with Caleb. The video of the two of them angrily accusing Caleb at the banquet had spread on the internet, and at this point, everyone saw Caleb as the thief who stole the Combustion Heart!

Those who originally believed in Caleb couldn’t help but waver. After all, both heads of the Mamet family had come forward to sever their ties with him, which meant that the police must have enough evidence. Plus, Caleb hadn’t shown up for so many days, and his two assistants hadn’t made any statements either.

Xaviera watched the video online and asked softly, "You won’t let me come forward to prove your innocence, so what’s your plan?"

Caleb chuckled, "Mrs. Mamet should know that the necklace found at Lowen Clubhouse was a fake. The police will prove that I did not steal the real Combustion Heart. As for why the fake appeared at the Lowen Clubhouse, it’s obviously someone trying to frame me!"

Xaviera understood in an instant, "No wonder you let Todd Reiser . . ."

Todd Reiser had gone to Lowen Clubhouse, and soon after, this incident happened. He couldn’t escape the responsibility!

Xaviera looked up at Caleb, and saw a satisfied smile on his face, as if he thought his plan was perfect. In terms of strategy, Wayne Reiser wasn’t his match.

In the afternoon, Wayne Reiser held a press conference.

Most of the upper class in Libanan knew that Wayne Reiser was Caleb’s mentor and trusted this student very much. Due to the high price of the Combustion Heart, Wayne Reiser hadn’t found a buyer and left the necklace in Caleb’s care.

At the press conference, Wayne Reiser apologized sincerely, "I’m sorry, everyone. I never thought Caleb would do such a thing. He started learning from me when he was ten years old, and he was once my proudest student. He is indeed outstanding, having founded the Mamet Corporation and achieved today’s success, so I trusted him deeply and told him where the Combustion Heart was stored, asking him to help me guard it. I planned to find a suitable buyer and immediately donate the three hundred million dollars to the impoverished mountainous region, but he actually . . ."

"My negligence has led to his transformation, and Caleb has paid the price. I hope everyone can give him a chance to reform."

When he heard Wayne Reiser’s words, everyone couldn’t help but feel sympathetic.

Over the years, Wayne Reiser has devoted himself to charity, donating large amounts of money every year. He had also painstakingly organized charity dinners, and his own actions were more than good enough. Now that Caleb had made a mistake, he still took the responsibility actively.

"Mr. Reiser, you can’t blame yourself! Some people are just born bad, and no matter how you teach them, it’s useless!"

"Yes! Mr. Reiser, a student’s mistakes can’t all be blamed on the teacher. Not to mention, you’ve done countless good deeds over the years, and we’ve all seen it!"

Wayne Reiser listened to the others and his eyes flashed with a sense of triumph, but his face was still full of sorrow and helplessness, "In the end, it’s my negligence that caused the Combustion Heart to be stolen. Therefore, I decided to donate three billion dollars in my name to the mountainous areas, even if the necklace . . ."

Before his words could fall, a commotion came from the door. Everyone looked over and couldn’t help exclaiming, "Xaviera!"

Although not everyone in Libanan knew that Xaviera was Caleb’s wife, the well-informed reporters certainly knew her identity.

What was the purpose of Caleb’s wife coming at this time? Was she here to sabotage the event, or to clarify the situation for Caleb?

In an instant, the reporters swarmed toward Xaviera, surrounding her in the middle, eager to get the first-hand news.
