Chapter 273: Caleb Mamet Can Also Be Sad Xaviera Evans looked confused: “What are you talking about?” Albert Sullivan didn’t say anything: “...” Did the man forget, or was he deliberately not saying anything? The Riker family and Vivian Drew were already on the verge of bankruptcy because of him, and Vivian Drew's life after marrying into the Riker family wasn’t easy, as the Riker family looked down on her for being a child born out of wedlock.
Late in Vivian Drew's life when she lost her looks, Mr. Riker liked younger, prettier women and often brought them home. Vivian Drew suffered a lot in the Riker family.
Others thought she was living the life of a wealthy wife in the Riker family, but who knew how much pain she went through in her life? However, this was her retribution, and it had nothing to do with Caleb Mamet.

Albert Sullivan began slowly, “Caleb Mamet was responsible for the car accident where Vivian Drew fell into the river.” Xaviera should know that Caleb Mamet didn’t need anyone's pity. He was like a lion, not letting go of anyone who had once hurt him, and the Riker family had already paid the price.
But Xaviera still didn’t understand, “I know, but | still feel bad for Caleb Mamet. The Drew family always called him a bastard, but he was the most innocent one. | wish I could kill Vivian Drew for him now.” Albert Sullivan: “..."” When did Xaviera become so violent? At this point, they heard footsteps outside the door. Xaviera quickly hung up the phone and rushed out, “Caleb Mamet!” The man looked weary as he took off his coat.
Xaviera asked, “You were responsible for Vivian Drew’s car accident, right? Why did you spare her life then?” Caleb Mamet calmly replied, “She should have died, but she got lucky.” He wasn’t surprised, as it was common for passers-by in that area, and her survival was within his expectations.
“Let's go, it's time for work.” Xaviera held his hand with a sad expression, “If you're upset, you have to talk about it. Don’t make yourself sick by keeping it all in.” Caleb Mamet's Adam's apple moved, feeling a surge of indescribable emotion in his heart. Xaviera looked at him with pity in her eyes, “Remember when we first met? | would tell you everything that happened to me, and talking about it made me feel better. So if you're going through something difficult, you have to tell me.” “I...” He was about to retort, but seeing Xaviera’s watery eyes, he swallowed his words back down.
Caleb Mamet's eyes fell, “At first, | was indeed sad and heartbroken.” Xaviera’s heart ached.
He then sneered coldly, “But now | don’t care at all. The Drew family means nothing to me, and their words can’t hurt me anymore.” “The once aristocratic and wealthy family, the Drew family, is now on the verge of collapse. With just a flick of my finger, | can completely destroy them, so in my eyes, they are nothing more than ants. Would you care about ants jumping around in front of you?” Caleb Mamet had always been strong, but facing Xaviera, he couldn’t help but show his vulnerability.
He looked exhausted, “I've always felt this way, but...” Xaviera looked at him seriously.
Caleb Mamet slowly said, “But occasionally, | still feel heartbroken.” Xaviera furrowed her brow, her heart feeling as if it had been struck.

Even though Caleb Mamet had a tough exterior, his heart was still fragile.
When Caleb Mamet was young, he had been mistreated by the Mamet family, and only Madam Mamet was kind to him. However, her health was not good, and she was often ill, so she couldn't take care of Caleb Mamet most of the time, and he had to grit his teeth and endure it all by himself.
In Xaviera’s heart, senior fellow Mortimer seemed like a god, as if nothing could bother him. No matter what difficulties she encountered, everything would be easily resolved as long as Mortimer was there.
But now she realized that while Caleb Mamet appeared invulnerable on the surface, there was still a vulnerable spot deep in his heart.
Xaviera opened her arms and tightly hugged his waist, “Senior brother, no matter what happens, | will always be by your side.” -‘l was originally planning to leave after helping Caleb Mamet detoxicate.* Upon hearing her inner thoughts, Caleb Mamet's heart ached intensely.
