Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband-Chapter 907 - : The Person in the Dream
Chapter 907: Chapter 907: The Person in the Dream
By the time everyone finished work and walked out of the company’s main entrance, it was already ten o’clock. Although it was early spring, the night was still cold, with a chilly wind. Xaviera Evans wrapped herself tightly in her coat, suddenly hearing footsteps coming from behind her.
Caleb Mamet, wearing a black coat and holding a white windbreaker, looked at Xaviera’s thin outfit with deep thoughts. He then draped the windbreaker over her and gently asked, “Cold?”
“Yeah, luckily you came.” Xaviera fastened the buttons, waved goodbye to Jared Griffel, and found that only the two of them were left at the entrance. She looked at the neon lights in the distance, took a deep breath and said, “When I founded Natural Sound, I always thought that Star was the biggest competitor. I never expected that the two companies would merge one day, and I would become the CEO.”
Caleb held her in his warm embrace, transferring warmth to her, and then led her to the car. “Natural Sound was originally a subsidiary of the Mamet Corporation, so you still need to go to the Mamet Group headquarters tomorrow and sign some documents.”
Xaviera nodded, leaned wearily on Caleb’s shoulder, and closed her eyes.
Twenty minutes later, Steve Price parked the car in front of Lowen Clubhouse. Just as he turned around to call the CEO and his wife to get out of the car, he saw Caleb holding Mrs. Mamet with a finger to his lips, gesturing for him not to make a sound – for Mrs. Mamet had already fallen asleep.
...
Steve hurriedly got out of the car, opened the back door, and Caleb carefully carried Xaviera out. Then the two of them went upstairs.
…
Xaviera’s mind was cloudy, and it seemed as if there was someone standing in front of her. The person’s voice was very familiar, and it sounded like Caleb in his childhood – with the same undisturbed tone but a hint of innocence. She wanted to see the person clearly, but everything was blurry, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t get closer.
She strained her entire body, and just as she was about to approach that person, she heard an adult male voice. “Xaviera?”
Xaviera’s eyes snapped open, panting heavily.
Caleb’s deep gaze was filled with tenderness as he pulled out a tissue and gently wiped the sweat from Xaviera’s forehead. His voice was low and magnetic: “What did you dream about?”
Xaviera shook her head, “Nothing, I just feel a bit hot.”
Caleb knew she had something on her mind but didn’t press further, naturally changing the subject. “I heard you’ve been playing games with Yigol Mamet lately. What are you playing?”
Xaviera was taken aback, gritted her teeth, surely it was the gossipy Steve Price who told Caleb. She laughed and shook her head: “Not at all! I’m very busy working, I don’t have time to play games! You must have heard wrong.”
Seeing Xaviera’s guilty look, Caleb couldn’t help but smile: “I didn’t say you couldn’t play; you don’t have to rush to deny it.”

As a top hacker, he had of course been exposed to competitive games and had watched professional competitions. There were many professional players in Star, and he knew that Xaviera liked playing games, but she usually played with others and had never teamed up with him.
Caleb stroked Xaviera’s cheek, “I want to play with you.”
Xaviera looked up at him in surprise, “Forget it, those games don’t have much technical content, and they won’t be interesting for you.”
Caleb smiled, knowing that for a top hacker like himself, ordinary competitive games certainly wouldn’t be interesting. However, if it were to play with Mrs. Mamet, he was quite interested. He asked, “You’re a top hacker too, so why do you like to play? And with Yigol Mamet, no less?”
Xaviera was taken aback for a few seconds, sensing a sour undertone in his words.
She quickly explained, “Yigol and I play the same game, but our rank difference is too large to play together, so we each play on our own.”
Understanding dawned on Caleb. It turned out that Yigol’s rank was too low to form a team with Xaviera. He could only watch helplessly as Xaviera battled in the game, expressing his admiration in the process.
Xaviera yawned, her eyes slightly sore, and lazily lied down on the bed, playfully saying, “Caleb, I’m so sleepy! I’ll go to sleep first. Wake me up in the morning; I still have documents to deal with.”
Caleb covered her with the quilt and gently said, “Sleep well, I’ll take care of the documents for you.”
After Xaviera fell asleep, Caleb took her phone. After_unlocking it, a game interface appeared on the screen. Mrs. Mamet had insisted that she was too busy to play games, yet she had clearly been playing right before going to sleep.
