Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Take Back Your Words
Translator: 549690339
Thankfully, Mrs. Coriell reacted quickly and explained with a smile, “Far from it, I was just remembering some of the things that happened when you and
Vita were children. I was foolish to speak about the past in front of Miss Evans. I hope you don’t mind?”
Xaviera Evans quipped, “And what if I say I do mind? Can you take back what you’ve already said?”
Caleb: “…” This woman would never let herself suffer a loss.
Mrs. Coriell’s expression stiffened a bit, she probably didn’t expect such a blunt response from Xaviera. But she quickly recovered, “Exactly, Miss Evans. It’s only natural for you to mind. As the older one, it was foolish of me to bring up the past and make you uncomfortable. May I apologize to you?
She lowered her stance and invoked her status as an elder. If Xaviera continued to argue, it would make her appear unreasonably insistent.Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update
Xaviera smirked. It was different when dealing with someone of a higher stature. They could retract and attack all at once.
Seeing her mother bowing down to Xaviera, Vita exploded, “Mom, how can you apologize to Xaviera! Why should you apologize to her? She stole my fiancé.
Xaviera tapped her fingers on the railing unconsciously. No matter if it was Mrs. Coriell or Vita, they were both indirectly telling her that Caleb had an unusual relationship with them and that she was nothing but an opportunistic predator, who would be abandoned by Caleb sooner or later.
Vita continued to cry pitifully on one side. The whimpering was so irritating that Xaviera considered kicking all these people out. She was getting rather bored of this drama.
Just then, a stern male voice came from outside the doorway.
“Why are you crying? You brought this upon yourself by running away. You lost Caleb because of your own actions, you have no one else to blame.”
The butler brought in a man with a stern face, “Vita, you’re not a child anymore. Shouldn’t be crying over the mistakes you’ve made.”
“Boo hoo… Dad, I realize my mistake now, I won’t be capricious anymore. I just want Caleb to come back to me. Caleb would never treat me like this before, it’s all because of that woman…”
This man was Vita’s father, Boris Coriell. He appeared to be around forty-five, a man of aristocratic demeanor. He sighed, “Caleb, as for what happened, Mr. Coriell admits that our Coriell family owes you an apology. However, I hope that you’ll give me a moment to say a few things.”
Caleb’s patience was clearly on edge.
A bunch of people had been rambling on about this and that first thing in the morning. Even if Caleb’s temper were not short, this family of three would’ve tested anyone’s patience.
Seeing Caleb’s annoyance, Xaviera held his hand and gently stroked it, pacifying him like a kitten. Caleb took her hand and led her toward the living room, “Mr. Coriell, let’s sit down and talk.”
After hesitating for a few seconds, Boris Coriell, his wife and daughter finally sat down on the sofa, his sharp and steady eyes occasionally scanning the intertwined hands of Caleb and Xaviera..
