Chapter 317: Chapter 317: Caleb Mamet is not her senior fellow
Translator: 549690339
Xaviera Evans took off the diamond crown, cradling it in her hands, choking back her words: âThank you.â
Unexpectedly she was able to receive this birthday gift from when she was ten years old now at the age of twenty.
Caleb Mamet left to attend the donation ceremony, as Xaviera Evans stood still, clutching the diamond crown.
âMiss Evans.â
At that moment, a warm male voice resonated.
Boyd Drew came forward in a light-colored suit, a gentle smile on his face, and gave her a box in his hand, âMiss Evans, this is for you.â
Xaviera furrowed her brows.
Another gift?
She really couldnât understand, knowing full well that she and Caleb were husband and wife, why Drew still actively approached her?
âMr. Drew, thereâs no need.â
Drew wasnât angry, still appearing indifferent: âXaviera, you know who I am.â Xaviera felt a tight knot forming in her heart.
Drew revealed a trace of a smile: âYour brother must have told you, who I am.â
Xaviera gulped, indeed Albert mentioned that she had a fiancé, and that man was Drew.
Drewâs laughter was deep: âMiss Evans, to be honest, I like you very much, I wonât hurt you, thereâs no need for you to keep me at armâs length.â
Xaviera looked at him suspiciously: âNo matter what your intention, we should not have any contact with each other!â
Drew was silent for a moment, his eyes filled with disappointment, but he insisted on giving her the box and his voice carried a trace of pleading, âOpen it and see.â
Seeing that Xaviera made no move, Drew opened the box. A diamond crown rested silently inside, adorned with gold leaves and gemstones, shimmering under the light.
Xaviera, being a designer herself, understood the value of the crown even more. The crown was a masterpiece by the famous designer Wright. There was only one such design, and it vanished after being auctioned off a few years ago. It was priceless.
Drew laughed bitterly: âThis crown has been waiting for its owner for ten years. Now itâs a bit old, you might not like it, but I still hope Miss Evans you can accept it, if you donât want it then you can throw it away.â
With that, he handed her the box, turned around decisively, and left.
Xaviera looked shocked, her heart filled with confusion.
Why did Drew give her the crown from ten years ago? Could it be that Drew bought it and kept it for ten years?
Drew paused in his steps, turning slightly towards her: âIâm sorry, I wasnât able to bid for the island. I was prepared to offer it up even if it bankrupted me, but unfortunately⊠my abilities are limited. Next time I will do better. Anything you like, I will do my best to give you.â
Xavieraâs heart clenched, âDrew, how did you know?â
How could Drew be so clear about her wish when she was ten?
There was a trace of dejection in Drewâs eyes, âI know it all, but none of it matters now, I just hope that in the future I can do better for you.â
With a sorrowful sigh, he strode away.
Xaviera stood there in silence, her thoughts in a turmoil.
She only told her senior fellow about her wishes when she was ten. Even her brother and grandfather werenât aware. How could Drew know?
And furthermore, Drew bought this crown ten years ago. What secrets were behind all this?
Who is Drew exactly?
Caleb left Steve Price to go back to Lowen Clubhouse first, and it was only when Xaviera got into the car that she found out that Caleb was already waiting inside. đ»đ»đŠđđđđ«đ·đđđŠđ”.đŹđ°đ
Xaviera remained silent for a long while, her head lowered.
âWhat did Drew say?
Calebâs voice was cold, as if he was repressing something.
In Xavieraâs hand was the box Drew had given her, she remained silent.
Looking at the box, Caleb felt a surge of anger rising within him. Drew was meticulous in his calculations, he must have said something that made Xaviera unhappy.
And Xavieraâs attitude, did it mean she believed Drew and had doubts about him?
Xaviera hesitated slightly: âHe gave me a diamond crown, and⊠and said many things that confused me.â
Caleb clenched his fists, his expression darkening.
Xaviera took a deep breath: âHe seemed to remind me that he is my senior fellow.â
During the island bidding, Drew had started laying out hints, and now he had given her a crown. All these things she had only told her senior fellow, so how did Drew know?
All of Drewâs actions seemed to be reminding her that Caleb was not her senior fellow..
