Chapter 545: Chapter 545: Betting on Wins and Losses
Her eyes reddened, she looked at Caleb Mamet with grievance, “Caleb...”
Xaviera Evans’ admirer immediately got angry, “Mrs. Mamet, your words are really harsh! There’s nothing strange about Miss Woods being unable to tame such a wild horse; she’s just a delicate girl. You can’t accuse Miss Woods of not being skilled in horse riding!”
“Mrs. Mamet, if you’re so capable, why don’t you try and tame this horse? What right do you have to ridicule Miss Woods?”
The man seemed to really like Zara Woods and quickly stood up to defend her from injustice when he saw her wronged and crying.
Before Xaviera Evans could speak, Caleb Mamet’s eyes turned cold at the side, his voice icy and authoritative, “I didn’t know that when Mrs. Mamet just spoke the truth, it would cause everyone to be so displeased?”
Everyone immediately became silent, and after a long while, some friends of Yigol Mamet who were on good terms with him came forward.
“This horse was clearly chosen by Mrs. Mamet first, but Zara Woods insisted that Mrs. Mamet didn’t know how to ride and could not control this horse, so she took it away forcibly. Now that she has made a fool of herself, why is she blaming Mrs. Mamet?”
“Moreover, when the horse was standing next to Mrs. Mamet, it was as docile as a child. How come it became so violent when it got close to Zara Woods?”
“Having snatched someone else’s thing, yet blaming it for being bad, isn’t that a bit too much?”
Yigol Mamet was indignant. To say Xaviera Evans was vicious? They were really good at turning things around!
The man continued, “Mrs. Mamet, if you can tame this horse, I’d be willing to apologize and offer reparations. I have plenty of commercial real estate available, and I could give Mrs. Mamet two or three properties as a gift, what do you think?”
Commercial properties?
Xaviera Evans suddenly became interested but feigned difficulty, “This...”
Zara Woods’ admirer thought she didn’t dare, so he began to ridicule her, “Since Mr. Adel is so generous, I can’t be left behind. If Mrs. Mamet can tame this horse, I’ll give her a whole building!”
“Count me in!”
Those who were afraid that Xaviera Evans would not get on the horse all placed their bets.
Boyd Drew, who had been silent for a long time at the side, suddenly laughed, “Mr. Caleb Mamet, why not let Miss Evans give it a try? Even if she can’t ride, there’s nothing to lose. But if she can, there are many benefits to gain.”
All eyes turned to Boyd Drew. Others might not know about the relationship between the Drews and the Mamet family, but Zara Woods was very aware of it.
These days, she had been very close to Boyd Drew, and now she came to Caleb Mamet’s side to make her presence known. There must be some ulterior motive.
Xaviera Evans’ eyes darkened, her expression hesitant, “Mr. Drew is right. Even if I can’t do it, there’s nothing to lose. And if I can, there are many benefits. I really do want to give it a try.”
