Chapter 1102 - Chapter 1102 Chapter 1102 The bet was proposed by Boyd Drew

Chapter 1102: Chapter 1102: The bet was proposed by Boyd Drew Chapter 1102: Chapter 1102: The bet was proposed by Boyd Drew At this point, everyone couldn’t help but wonder: “So, the Drew family failed twice in framing Mrs. Mamet and so turned their focus on Mr. Caleb Mamet.”

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. The Drew family kept saying that Mr. Mamet had made Mr. Drew ill and that he wanted to snatch that 5% of shares without considering family ties. However, with the enormous industry of the Mamet Corporation in hand, would Mr. Mamet even care about the Drew family’s trifles?

If Mrs. Mamet hadn’t had the recording today, the Drew family’s plan would have succeeded. Everyone would think that Mrs. Mamet had questionable morals and that Mr. Mamet was cold-hearted and unfilial.

Now that the recording has been released, the Drew family’s actions have lost credibility in the eyes of everyone.

Why did Sir Drew happen to fall ill at this time? Was he accusing Mr. Mamet of wrongdoing on purpose, just to avoid handing over that 5% of shares? After all, everyone knew that Sir Drew was partial to Boyd Drew and didn’t care about Mr. Mamet, his own nephew.

Xaviera Evans’ lips curled into a faint arc, her eyes deep and mysterious, as she subtly signaled to a man not far away. Some things couldn’t be said directly by her; they would only be credible if someone else said them.

These tactics were all learned from the Drew family. They shouldn’t think they were the only ones who could manipulate public opinion.

If the Drew family was to play dirty tricks, she would expose Winifred Drew’s actions and make things more complicated. The Drew family had no evidence in their hands – just empty words – so they couldn’t be more convincing than her.

Vivian Drew bit her lip, never thinking that Xaviera would talk nonsense on purpose and make everyone assume that the Drew family had instructed Winifred to frame her.

Unable to hold back, a high-ranking member of the Drew family spoke up: “If Winifred framed you, it must be because you offended her. How can you mix that up with the company’s affairs?”

Xaviera’s eyes reddened, and she spoke grievously: “How can you say that Mr. Caleb Mamet is responsible for Mr. Drew’s illness? He’s an elderly man, and his collapse means he’s in poor health. Why does the Drew family go around saying it’s Caleb’s fault? After all, he’s never even stepped foot into the Drew residence, let alone upset Mr. Drew. You’re just taking advantage of Caleb’s good nature, not wanting to argue with you, so you slander him as being unfilial. Do you have no conscience?”

The high-ranking executive was left speechless with a red face after Xaviera’s reprimands.

She was saying that Caleb Mamet had a good temper? He was the most terrifying person!

Xaviera looked helpless: “I’ve heard that Winifred had just transferred to Libanan University, and the calligraphy competition was our first meeting. We didn’t even speak, let alone offend her. But she went out of her way to frame me and ruin my reputation. I didn’t understand why she did it, but now, I do.”

There was a wave of disapproval from the crowd. The Drew family’s tactics were too sinister. For a small fraction of shares, they intended to ruin Mrs. Mamet’s reputation, even using their own younger generation to do so.

The high-ranking executive of the Drew family was trembling with rage, shaking her finger at Xaviera, shouting: “Shut up! You shut up! This is all a misunderstanding, it’s not true!”

“Mr. Drew fell ill because of Mr. Mamet! If it weren’t for his insistence on that 5% of shares, how could it have been possible…” The executive suddenly stopped, his face turning ugly.

Xaviera glanced at him indifferently, her voice cold as she questioned: “So, did Mr. Drew suddenly fall ill because he didn’t want to give away that 5% of shares?”

“Why does Mr. Mamet want that 5% of shares? Isn’t it because Boyd Drew lost a bet to me? We agreed at the time that he would bet shares in the Drew Corporation, and I would bet 5% of shares in the Mamet Corporation. In the end, he lost. Shouldn’t he honor the bet?”

The crowd gasped. 5% of shares in the Mamet Corporation?

Still unconvinced, the Drew executive countered: “That’s because you set up and deceived Mr. Drew, so…”

“I set him up and deceived him?” Xaviera interrupted with a cold laugh and then raised her voice: “Please get it straight. Boyd Drew proposed the bet. I didn’t want to participate, but he teamed up with Zara Woods to mock me for not being able to ride a horse, saying that I had lost face for Caleb. I refused twice initially, but he still persisted. I agreed to the bet for Caleb’s sake.”

“Boyd Drew willingly proposed the 5% of shares because he believed that I couldn’t ride a horse, so he demanded that I bet an equal amount of shares in the Mamet Corporation. The Drew Corporation and Mamet Corporation’s shares are not equal in value, so I actually lost out on the deal.”
