206 Chapter 206: Who is His Wife?

Caleb wanted her to wear something like this? O

Was he seriously sick?

Xaviera Evans felt conflicted but couldn’t help but make a call to Caleb.

At the Mamet Corporation, Caleb was lazily leaning on the couch, holding his mobile phone, his voice indifferent: “Work an extra shift in the next few days and design several outfits.”

The woman hurriedly asked, “…Caleb, what kind of dresses do you need? Is it for attending some

event?”

“It’s not for me to wear, but for a woman. I’ll send her measurements.” Caleb said thoughtfully: “Four sets for each season, and deliver them by next week.”

The woman gasped and smiled awkwardly: “Caleb, a total of sixteen gowns is a lot! I might not even be able to finish the sketches, let alone make the final product. Custom-made dresses have to be hand-made, so they take a long time. I really don’t think I can finish these within that short period of time…”

“If you can’t do it, there’s no reason for me to continue investing in you.” Caleb didn’t want to listen to any more of her excuses.

On the other end of the phone, designer Zara Woods bit her l*p and forced a smile: “Alright… I’ll do my

best.”

Zara tested the waters: “Caleb, is this lady your… I just want to know her age, so the style of the dress will be tailored according to her age, so…”

Caleb was about to hang up the phone but answered calmly: “She’s my wife.”

Zara’s breathing hitched, her voice trembling: “You… got married? I thought you had no interest in women? And why didn’t you tell me when you got married? I would have liked to attend.”

Caleb frowned slightly, clearly getting annoyed.

Zara laughed: “Now that I know it’s for your wife, I’ll keep that in mind. I promise to complete the task. Plus, I’m going to return to China soon. I want to have a meal with you since we haven’t seen each other for a long time.”

“Caleb, is that okay? You can bring your sister-in-law too. I really want to see who is so lucky.”

After saying that, there was a moment of silence on the line, making Zara extremely embarrassed.

Caleb seemed busy, but just impatiently responded: “Hmm, we’ll see.”

The call mercilessly ended, leaving Zara’s face darkened.

Unexpectedly, Caleb had married quietly. There had always been rumors about his refusal to get involved with women, and indeed, he had no scandals. That’s why Zara had always believed that she was special.

After all, they had been childhood playmates. Their families were well-matched, and they used to dine together frequently, which is why she had casually called him Caleb.

Since they were childhood friends, Caleb didn’t hesitate to invest in Zara’s fashion studio.

She was good at maintaining her boundaries, referring to herself as Caleb’s close friend in public. She also often accompanied him to events: She was the only woman who could stay by his side all these

years.

She had originally thought that when it was time to get married, Caleb would marry her. But now, he had married someone else.

Which b*tch had seduced Caleb?

Zara’s face darkened, and she picked up her phone to make a call.

Her tone was soft: “Jake, how come I didn’t know that Caleb got married? He just told me, and he wants me to design dresses for Mrs. Mamet. How come I didn’t hear anything about him dating before?”

The person on the other end sounded surprised: “Who? Caleb? I don’t know either!”

Zara said helplessly: “Such a big event like a wedding, and he didn’t even tell us.”

“Caleb not informing everyone about his wedding might be because he doesn’t like the woman. It could be that his family pushed him too hard, so he just picked a random woman to please the elders. They might even divorce someday,” the other person reasoned.

Zara said happily: “That’s true. But it seems like Caleb is good to her. He even asked me to design dresses for Mrs. Mamet specifically. Sixteen dresses all at once…”

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the man, she hung up the phone.

Since none of Caleb’s friends knew about the wedding, it meant that he wasn’t satisfied with his wife and that was why there was no wedding ceremony.

Since Caleb didn’t like her, Zara was confident that she could drive that woman away.

207 Chapter 207: Knowing a Person’s Face But Not Their Heart

The Mamet Corporation.

Sean Price entered, “Mr. Caleb Mamet, Mrs. Evans called me while you were on the phone earlier.”

He paused, handed his cellphone to Caleb Mamet, and said awkwardly, “She said… she received your gift.”

Sean Price was well aware that the gift was sent on behalf of Mr. Caleb Mamet by his brother Steve Price, but he had no idea what it was that had caused Mrs. Evans to suddenly call.

Caleb Mamet hesitated for a moment and took the phone from Sean Price, who then tactfully retreated out of the room.

“Hello.”

Xaviera Evans’s voice trembled slightly, “Did you send those things?”

Caleb Mamet had just ordered the gown and it couldn’t have been delivered so quickly, so it couldn’t be the gown.

He thought about it for a moment and suddenly remembered that a clothing brand had been talking to the Mamet Group about business. They had sent a few new women’s garments, all custom-made according to Xaviera Evans’s measurements. It must be those clothes.

Caleb Mamet said casually, “They were sent by a clothing brand, made to your measurements. They’re probably not as good as your own designs, but you’ll have to put up with them.”

Xaviera Evans: “…” I don’t design this kind of seductive sleepwear!

She turned her head to look at the gauzy garments on the bed and sighed, “Let me ask again, are you sure you sent them?”.

Caleb Mamet curved a corner of his l*ps, “Yes, don’t you like it?”

The shameless man!

What kind of clothes are these? These are clearly just a few pieces of gauze. It’s like wearing nothing

at all!

Caleb Mamet suddenly remembered what Steve Price had said about not hiding the good deeds and letting his wife know.

He was silent for a while and smiled slightly, “I actually helped design a few of the pieces myself, I think you’ll look stunning in them.”

Xaviera Evans was dumbfounded.

She never knew Caleb Mamet could be so open, even helping to design such clothes?

Thinking of Caleb Mamet’s cold face as he discussed the details of the clothes with the designers, has the dignified president of the Mamet Group really abandoned his face?”

Xaviera Evans took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down, “Caleb Mamet, do you really want

me to wear them?”

1/3

Caleb Mamet picked up the coffee on the table, turned on his computer, and focused his gaze, saying casually, “Yeah, I’ll be going on a business trip in a few days, and you’ll come along. We can take a break and treat it as a vacation, and then bring some of these new clothes.”

Xaviera Evans’s a well-known designer, so she can check the quality and discuss the design details, as well as select some clothes she likes.,

Xaviera Evans: “!!”

This shameless man! He wants her to take these clothes on vacation?

He’s so brazen! Dare to play such games outside? He might have done this with other women already. Xaviera Evans was burning with anger and roared, “Shameless! You dog of a man!”

She angrily hung up the phone.

Caleb Mamet looked innocent and perplexed holding the phone.

Was it the clothes that didn’t look good? After all, Xaviera Evans is a renowned designer, and her standards are high, but it shouldn’t make her so angry, right?

Lowen Clubhouse.

Xaviera Evans lay in bed, trying to regain her composure. The clothes had long been put away, but the images lingered in her mind.

He has finally revealed his true colors!

Beast!

Turns out he’s into this kind of excitement. People do change!

Xaviera Evans tossed and turned, her heart in turmoil. Suddenly, she realized that Caleb Mamet had sent those clothes because he wanted to… engage in intimate activities with her.

When she k*sses Caleb Mamet, her sense of taste returns temporarily. But what if she wants to regain it completely? Would that require such means?

Xaviera Evans thought she might as well give it a try…

But those clothes were too humiliating!

Xaviera Evans got up, opened the gift box, and took out a revealing skirt.

Calm, stay calm. She blushed as she took the skirt into the bathroom.

Caleb Mamet hurried home.

At this time, Sean Price received a call from the clothing brand, “Special Assistant Price, I’m truly sorry, but those clothes will be sent a bit later. I hope Mr. Caleb Mamet won’t mind.”

After hanging up, Sean Price hurried upstairs to find Caleb Mamet, only to find out he had already

left.

It wasn’t a big deal after all, just some clothes. The CEO probably wouldn’t care.

208 Chapter 208: Caleb Mamet Really Has No Shame

Although Xaviera Evans and Caleb Mamet don’t sleep in the same bedroom, the second floor is their private space, an area where no one would disturb them.

At this moment, Xaviera tiptoed into Caleb’s bedroom, pushed open the bathroom door, and shyly checked her reflection in the mirror.

Can this even be called clothing?

There is hardly any fabric, and what little there is, happens to be transparent. She could feel her nose bleed just by looking, not knowing what Caleb’s opinion would be.

She was breathing heavily, and after thinking for a moment, she dashed from the bathroom straight into the bed, covering her alluring b*dy with the bed sheet.

Elsewhere, Caleb’s car slowed to a stop. He wore a serious expression on his face. “Where is my

he asked.

wife?”

Steve Price felt a pang of panic, the thought of ‘insufficient salary’ filled his head, he only did what he did for the boss’s benefit!

Upon hearing the boss’s voice, he walked over in a daze, his voice shaking as he said, “Your wife? She went into the bedroom.”

Caleb nodded, about to leave.

Steve rushed over, his face filled with guilt, “Boss! I’ve been with you for so long, always dutiful and dedicated, everything is for your sake. If I have offended you in any way, please spare my life!”

Caleb: “…

H

Did Steve lose his mind?

Caleb ignored Steve and walked upstairs.

He noticed someone had been in his room immediately after he entered, which made him frown.

Not even the servants, let alone Steve, who’s been with him all the time, should enter his room

uninvited. Who was so audacious?

His eyes turned cold. He removed his coat and walked in. Upon seeing the scene inside, his eyes widened in surprise –

But before he entered.

Under the covers, Xaviera was keyed up, her heart pounding.

Caleb

was about to return. What should she do?

How would he react to seeing her in this state when he entered?

She could be the first one to speak: Have you been wanting this for a while so you bought such embarrassing clothing?

Or feign meekness: Caleb, you are terrible! Do you like seeing me in this?

This is so embarrassing!

The footfalls outside got increasingly closer, and Xaviera felt like her heart was about to jump out.

Never mind, she wasn’t going to do it, suddenly initiating something like this was too strange, they needed more time to develop feelings.

Xaviera shook her head. She must be going mad, considering selling her b*dy just to regain her sense

of taste.

No matter what, Caleb was her senior fellow, after ten years of friendship, he suddenly became her husband. Wanting to do such a shameful thing was difficult for her to accept at once.

Xaviera regretted her decision and hastily stood up, intending to return to the bathroom to change.

At that moment, someone opened the bedroom door –

Xaviera froze, looking up at the man before her, “…”

She stood there, her face a picture of confusion, wishing she could disappear into a crack in the floor.

Caleb knew there was someone in his room, and the only one bold enough to enter was probably Xaviera, so he had no reservations and walked in directly. However, he had not expected to see such a beautiful sight in the bedroom.

A thump resonated in Caleb’s chest.

Xaviera was wearing nothing but the thin, white dress, almost all her b*dy veiled out at display. Her stunning figure left Caleb with an impulse he’s never felt before, with his blood boiling, clamoring

within him.

Had she gone mad?

The man swallowed his saliva, quickly shutting the door, his voice hoarse, “Xaviera, you…”

Covering the important parts of her b*dy, Xaviera was constantly backing away, yells at him: “Caleb! How could you buy this sort of clothes for me? You are so shameless. I thought you were innocent. I guess appearances can be deceiving!”

Caleb: “…”

What? He bought it?

When did he ever buy such a thing for Xaviera?

At that moment, the image of the bizarre Steve Price and his guilty face suddenly surfaced in Caleb’s

mind.

Oh-

It seems Steve did it!

With a smirk, the man walked toward Xaviera slowly, circled his arm around her back, then sliding it down her waist. His voice was full of pleasure.

“Hmm, good looking.”

Xaviera’s l*ps twitched.

She stammered, “Cal-cal- Caleb, how could you buy such clothes, shameless…”

Pulling her into his arms, his b*dy was hot, and his voice carried a bit of charm, “What’s there to be embarrassed about, we’re husband and wife, it’s only natural.”

209 Chapter 209: Concealing The Illness and Shunning The

Doctor

Xaviera Evans blushed deeply, shyly lowering her head. (1)

But, she thought, she had resolved to seduce him anyway, she had even dressed for it, so what was she being shy for!

For the sake of regaining her sense of taste, she had to put herself out there!

Mentally prepared, she put her hands on Caleb Mamet’s shoulders, “Caleb, we…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Caleb carried her directly to the bed.

The gentle k*ss landed on her b*dy, sending shivers down her spine.

Xaviera’s thoughts scattered, her heart pounded away, and she began to tremble with nervousness.

They were husband and wife, this was inevitable, why was she so nervous! It was a great opportunity to regain her taste sensation!

Consoled by this thought, Xaviera took the initiative and wrapped her arms around his n*eck, responding passionately.

The man stiffened, his b*dy was hotter than ever, she was irresistible to him, dressed as she was, and so proactive.

Caleb’s deep-set eyes were inscrutable, pleased, he turned a heated gaze on her.

Xaviera was supposedly taking the initiative just to regain her sense of taste and did not really want to sleep with him.

Caleb’s gaze gradually cleared, he ended the lingering k*ss, his voice raspy, “Xaviera.”

Xaviera slowly opened her cloudy eyes and quietly responded, “What is it?”

Their bodies pressed together tightly, although he was feverish, he did not make another move.

The man chuckled lightly, drew closer and gently k*ssed her forehead, tenderly asking: “Do you want

to?”

A blush spread to every corner of Xaviera’s face, she lowered her head, refusing to meet his gaze.

But really, did he have to ask? She’d already been so forward!

“Mrs. Mamet.” Caleb spoke again, his voice alluring.

Xaviera stammered, “I, I…”

“You want me?” Caleb let out scorching breath.

Xaviera nodded, licking her l*ps, “Yes, don’t ask anymore, it’s too embarrassing!”*

Who’d expect Caleb to chuckle lightly, suddenly rose from the bed and stated unhurriedly, “Keep wanting.”

She wanted to regain her sense of taste, he did not need to be used by her, he would wait until

Xaviera is ready.

Caleb strode into the bathroom and shut the door with a bang.

Xaviera propped herself up on the bed, a look of utter surprise on her face, “…”

What on earth was Caleb thinking?

Was he playing with me?

A bewildered Xaviera lay on the bed, filled with resentment.

Then suddenly, she remembered something and gasped for breath.

Could it be that Caleb was… incapable?

The next morning, Xaviera woke up having drifted to sleep somehow, Caleb had already gone to work by the time she woke up.

This was her first time sleeping in Caleb’s bedroom, there were no clothes of hers in the room so she had a maid bring some over.

After freshening up, she headed straight to the medical facility at the Lowen Clubhouse.

“Madam, why are you going to the medical facility?” Steve Price rushed to catch up with her.

Starting from last night, Steve and the housekeeper began exchanging gossip.

Madam and the president had spent the night in the same room. This morning, the madam had asked the maid to deliver clothes over and she even took a bath.

They… they did it!

Most importantly, Steve noticed that Madam was walking somewhat oddly today, as if she was

exhausted.

The president had finally got his hands on her!

But, unexpectedly, Madam headed for the medical facility right after she left the house, prompting. Steve to rush and ask what was going on.

Xaviera wrinkled her eyebrows, helpless and frustrated, “…”

What else could she do? She couldn’t just watch Caleb’s suffering!

Of course she couldn’t tell anyone that a man was unable. For a prideful man like Caleb, hiding his ailment could only worsen his condition.

Such a matter was probably only known to Caleb himself. Not even Steve could be told, and naturally, she couldn’t discuss it with others either.

So, after some thought, she kept her explanation simple: “…I, um, wanted to make Caleb some tonic soup.”

Steve was dumbfounded, his eyes wide in disbelief.

It looked like Madam was not satisfied with the president’s performance, so she wanted to make him some restorative soup to help him recover his strength?

10.15

What the hell!

As Steve watched Xaviera walk away, dumbfounded, he turned to see Caleb standing behind him.

Caleb, dressed in his workout clothes, a thin sweat on his forehead, seemed somewhat puzzled, “She went to the medical facility?”

210 Chapter 210: Caleb Mamet’s Friend

Steve Price looked tense, cautiously asked, “CEO, you and your wife last night…”

Caleb Mamet smiled slightly: “Yes, that dress was given by you.”

Looking at the man’s smile, Steve Price felt goosebumps, trembling in fear, “CEO, I did all this for your own good. Consider my loyalty, please let me off this time…”

“You have good taste; I won’t deduct your salary.” Caleb Mamet raised his eyebrows, his eyes filled with a hint of amusement.

Steve Price: “…”

Not deducting it? It seemed that the CEO was very satisfied with his gift.

Upon hearing this, Steve Price breathed a sigh of relief, his mouth running away, excitedly saying, “CEO, I’m glad you like it, but it’s useless if you like it. Your wife is very dissatisfied with your skills, and it’s a shame about the sleepwear I prepared!”

The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward.

Caleb Mamet’s eyes were filled with danger.

In Mrs. Mamet’s eyes, was he really not good enough despite pulling back at the last minute last night?

Caleb Mamet sneered coldly, looking at Steve Price lightly, “If you don’t want the salary, I’ll grant your

wish.”

Steve Price: “?”

He was just quoting his wife’s words; it wasn’t like he said it himself. Why was his salary being deducted again?

For the next few days, every time Xaviera Evans saw Caleb Mamet, she couldn’t help but think about his “can’t do it” incident.

She had gone all out that day, but Caleb Mamet still couldn’t do it.

She was too embarrassed to see Caleb Mamet, so she worked overtime at school every day and went straight upstairs when she got home, avoiding meeting Caleb Mamet.

Steve Price was anxious like ants on a hot pot, wishing he could take Caleb Mamet for treatment immediately.

He racked his brain but couldn’t come up with a solution.

At this time, the butler entered, “The gift dress the CEO ordered for his wife has arrived, and Miss Woods is already outside.”

Steve Price slapped his thigh, “Yes, there’s the gift dress! That’s the CEO’s gift for his wife!”

Zara Woods’s designed dresses were luxury items. Just one cost over a hundred thousand, and getting one was not guaranteed. But this time, there were sixteen dresses!

Zara Woods was nothing compared to Lohill, but she was still a well-known designer. Surprisingly, she was personally delivering the dresses.

Xaviera Evans saw two cars parked outside, and the butler went out to greet them, looking very respectful.

“Miss Woods, please come in!”

Zara Woods replied generously, “I didn’t call before coming, Caleb wouldn’t be upset, would he?”

“Not at all, the CEO must be delighted to have you.” The butler quickly ushered her into the house.

Zara Woods spoke sweetly, “Butler, it’s been a long time. I’ve been too busy abroad to come back and

visit.”

Suddenly, she remembered something, “I heard Caleb got married. I haven’t met Mrs. Mamet yet. Is she at home? I should greet her.”

The butler replied, “She’s upstairs.”

At this moment, Xaviera Evans slowly came downstairs. As soon as Zara Woods saw her, she reached out her hand warmly, “You’re Mrs. Mamet? My name is Zara Woods, and I’m an old friend of Caleb.”

Xaviera Evans nodded and politely extended her hand.

Steve Price whispered, “Mrs. Mamet, Miss Woods and the CEO are good friends. She’s very gentle.”

Sean Price murmured an introduction,

“Miss Woods is the Third Miss of the Woods family, currently a designer at the CEO’s invested studio

overseas.”

“Although the CEO and Miss Woods were childhood playmates, they can’t be considered particularly close; just ordinary friends.”

Xaviera Evans nodded, now understanding who Zara Woods was.

Seeing Zara Woods’s politeness, Xaviera Evans also smiled, “Miss Woods, hello.”

“Oh yes, Xaviera, Caleb ordered a gift dress for you. Do you like it?” Zara Woods held Xaviera Evans’s hand, smiling broadly.

Xaviera Evans glanced at their clasped hands, murmuring, “Hmm.”

Zara Woods ordered the dress to be brought in, hanging it on a coat hanger. Under the lights, it was extremely eye-catching.

“When Caleb asked me to design the gift dress, he said to have sixteen of them ready within a week. I didn’t understand why he was in such a hurry. It turned out he wanted to give you a gift. Quick, see if you like these dresses.

After seeing the dresses, Xaviera Evans’s face turned cold.
