Chapter 540: Chapter 540: A Man’s Strength

Caleb swept a glance at her flushed cheeks and hazy eyes, and immediately understood.

The man hooked the corner of his mouth, “Mrs. Mamet.”

“Huh?”

“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Your saliva is about to flow from your mouth.”

Xaviera subconsciously touched the corner of her mouth, realized Caleb had tricked her, and pouted, “Caleb, you lied to me! You’re so annoying!”

The man enveloped her in his arms, pressed tightly against her delicate body, and his blazing gaze rested on her fair neck and collarbone, “Want it?”

Oh! That’s too explicit! She is still a baby!

Xaviera blushed. Although it was not appropriate to say this at this time, they happened to be in the bedroom. The surrounding environment and atmosphere inevitably made her think of it.

Inher mind, the scene from that day suddenly appeared. Caleb pressing down on her, panting slightly, the loose hair on his forehead swaying bit by bit.

The more Xaviera thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt. Her blushing cheeks spread to the back of her ears. “Caleb, that…”

“Hmm, quit it,” the man coldly interrupted, “As your punishment for worrying me, put away your thoughts and go downstairs to eat with me immediately!”

After he spoke, he walked out of the bedroom first, leaving Xaviera standing there dazed.

Xaviera looked embarrassed, twitching slightly at the corners of her mouth, and then muttered a few discontented words toward his retreating figure.

Unexpectedly, Caleb suddenly turned around and saw Xaviera’s angry expression, chuckling, “It seems Mrs. Mamet is quite dissatisfied with me?”

Xaviera awkwardly smiled, supporting her cheeks with both hands, revealing a big smile.

“I… How could I be upset! I can’t even like you enough! Hahaha…”

Caleb smiled meaningfully, but it’s a shame he couldn’t hear Xaviera’s inner voice. That would have been interesting.

…

Inside the dining room.

Sean Price and the butler had already prepared the meal, waiting for the president and his wife to dine.

However, after a long while, the couple had not come downstairs. Sean Price couldn’t help but wonder. Before the president married his wife, he usually had his meals prepared after he finished his work. But since marrying his wife, their dining time became fixed. Why haven’t they come out today?

After a while, Steve Price hurriedly came downstairs.

Steve Price smirked, “Hehe, brother, don’t wait anymore. I just went upstairs and heard something in the bedroom… hehe, just let it be.”

Sean Price froze for a few seconds before reacting.

Steve Price excitedly said, “Do you know what the president and his wife are doing? Brother, you know the president’s skills, it’ll probably take a long time, so…”

Before he could finish, footsteps were heard from upstairs.

Caleb stood at the stairway, his seemingly amused eyes fixed on Steve Price.

Steve Price: “…” Although the president seemed to be smiling, why did it feel so terrible? As a result, he choked on his saliva and began coughing violently.

“President…cough, cough… So fast? Er… let’s eat, hehe.”

He thought the president would take at least two hours, but he ended up coming out in just a few minutes. It seemed weak. Was something wrong with the president?!

Fortunately, he didn’t blurt out his inner thoughts, or the president would have been merciless. If a man’s shortcomings in that area were openly discussed, he would worry about more than just a salary deduction, but rather his very life!

Caleb’s eyes slightly squinted, coldly glancing at Xaviera behind him, causing her to shudder as well.

It’s unfair! It was Steve Price who thought too much! It wasn’t her fault!

Caleb smiled faintly, holding Xaviera’s hand as they sat down. He tenderly served her food, taking the opportunity to whisper in her ear, “I’ll let you off this time, but not the next one.”

Xaviera shuddered, her face reddening.

…

The Campbell Residence.

Late at night, Anna was suddenly sent back to the Campbell family, and the person who sent her even said that she was cunning and didn’t want to see her at upper class banquets in the future.

Although the servants did not know what happened, they could guess most of it. They all sneered secretly. As the adopted daughter, she should have behaved obediently, but she had to compete with the Campbell family’s real daughter. What angered people even more was that the Campbell couple was utterly oblivious, allowing their adopted daughter to bully their biological child.
