Chapter 618: Chapter 618: Throwing the Husband at the Door
Caleb would never destroy her treasured feelings.
More importantly, Xaviera likes gentle men, and for her sake, he would always maintain a gentle demeanor.
On the other side.
“Brother, why didn’t you tell me you were coming!”
“Birthday present.”
Quine handed the black box to Xaviera, “I didn’t know when your birthday was before, but now that I do, here’s a hidden weapon as a gift.”
Xaviera took it, smiling at him, “This is the birthday the Campbell family set for me, but my mom actually set another day for me, so there’s no need to be in such a hurry to give birthday gifts. Otherwise, you’ll have to send another one next time!”
“No worries, just keep this one, and I’ll prepare something even better for you next time.”
Xaviera knew her brother, who had a heavy temperament, always spoke little, and only spoke more when facing her, couldn’t help but feel a wave of warmth in her heart. She slowly opened the box, “Master Uland already gave me one of these hidden weapons.”
Quine frowned, “Master Uland’s hidden weapon isn’t as powerful as mine. Mine not only protects you but also avoids detection by metal detectors, making it hard to discover its traces during security checks. Even if you use it, no one can find any evidence.”
Xaviera pouted sweetly, “Hate! I really am very weak!”
Together, they walked to the Xaviera Courtyard. Quine spoke up, “I’ll be heading back now, you should go rest in your room.”
Xaviera nodded, watching Quine leave, suddenly feeling like she’d forgotten something. Thinking about it for a minute, she then suddenly realized.
Wait! Where’s Caleb?
She left her husband at the gate!
...
Caleb looked up at the drizzle in the sky, strands of moisture covering his body and dampening his hair, giving off a hint of chilliness.
At this moment, he smiled as he watched Xaviera running towards him in panic, scoffing, “Mrs. Mamet remembers to come back?”
The wife who forgot her husband: “...” Caleb, can you please stop laughing? I’m scared!
Xaviera immediately put on a flattering smile, “I heard you prepared a courtyard for me, so I couldn’t help but take a look, and then I came back to pick you up right away.”
Caleb stared at her with deep eyes, his voice low, “Is that so?”
“Mhm!” Xaviera nodded like a pecking chick, just admitting it straight up. If she said she just forgot about Caleb while walking with her brother, this man would definitely hold a grudge.
