Chapter 517: Chapter 517: The Sorrow of Yearning

The servant thought that, years ago, Miss Drew had completely severed contact with the elderly lady. Originally, they thought the elderly lady didn’t want to see her daughter again, but they are, after all, flesh and blood. How could she ever let go?

Upon learning that Miss Drew’s biological daughter had gone missing, the elderly lady was always hoping to find her own great-granddaughter. Now that she has finally been found, how could she not go to meet her?

...

The Campbell Residence in Libanan.

Anna Campbell sat on the sofa, tear stains all over her face and trembling. Mr. Campbell pointed at her and yelled: “You idiot! It was one thing for your brother to stand up for you, but why didn’t you tell him in advance that Caleb Mamet was in the car? By plotting to kill Caleb Mamet, you’re trying to destroy the Campbell family!”

Mrs. Campbell quickly defended Anna, “Stop yelling, what does this have to do with Anna? It wasn’t Anna who asked Adrian to do this. It was Adrian who wanted to stand up for his sister and hired people. If we were to blame anyone, it would be Xaviera Evans. If it weren’t for her causing trouble, how could things have become such a mess, and how could Adrian have been arrested?”

“Adrian has been obedient for over twenty years and never caused any troubles until he encountered Evans, it’s all her fault!”

Xaviera Evans sat in front of a table in the bedroom, a computer before her. The screen showed the surveillance footage of downstairs. Listening to their conversation, she couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.

Caleb hooked his lips: “Mrs. Mamet, this is a bit improper.”

Xaviera Evans raised an eyebrow, “Who told them to harbor ill will? What I did was to protect myself. After all, the Campbell family has a criminal who hired a hitman, even though they didn’t succeed in hurting me, I’m still terrified. Is there any problem with installing a pinhole camera to prevent any risks?”

She blushed, “What are you doing? I said I would miss you, it’s our first time living separately after marriage. If you miss me too much, Caleb, why don’t we... ”

“Mrs. Mamet, I will go first, you can call me.”

Xaviera choked up instant: “How can a phone call make up for your longing for me? Without me by your side, every day must be like a year to you!”

She gave a sly smile: “Or we could scope the nearby house.”

“I will come again tomorrow.”

Xaviera became stern, staring into Caleb’s teasing eyes.

Even if he couldn’t hear Xaviera’s inner voice at this moment, he knew what she was thinking. She just wanted him to stay so they could regain their sense of taste.

Caleb saw Xaviera frowning, looking troubled, and he gave a helpless smile, “Okay.”

Xaviera looked up, a little confused, just as she was about to ask what he meant by ‘okay’, she felt a warm touch on her lips, “Rest well, the Campbell family won’t bother you for now.”

Xaviera quickly took a bite of the apple on the table. The sweet taste was exactly wonderful. She had finally regained her sense of taste.

“Caleb, I don’t think so. The Campbell family knows that I was in the same car with you and might come directly to me, asking for me to intercede for Adrian Campbell. Therefore, they will definitely cause trouble.”
