Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Removing Hypnotism Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Removing Hypnotism Caleb lowered his gaze and looked at Xaviera Evans, “Where did Mrs. Mamet go?”

Xaviera smiled sweetly, “It’s my first time at the Drew family, and I don’t know the way, so I took the wrong path.”

Caleb curled the corners of his mouth slightly and scoffed, “You took the wrong path?”

“Yes! The Drew family is so big that it took me a long time to find the way to the ancestor grave visiting. So, it’s quite reasonable for me to be late. Fortunately, the ceremony hasn’t started yet!”

Caleb listened to Xaviera’s explanation, and the smile in his eyes became thicker.

Mrs. Mamet took the wrong path? He didn’t believe that.

After a long silence, the man said meaningfully, “There are surveillance cameras everywhere here.”

Xaviera looked innocent, “I know! What are you saying that for? I didn’t do anything bad. What’s the big deal with the surveillance? Even if the cameras caught me, I was just lost, and I went to the wrong place. It’s not my fault! They all came here early, and there was no one to guide me.”

She answered confidently; to avoid suspicion, she deliberately pretended to be lost and walked around the area twice. Later, she sneaked into the main house from the backyard, bypassing the surveillance, opened the small porcelain bottle in her hand and waved the mouth of the bottle under Sir Drew’s nose.

In fact, Sir Drew was not poisoned but fell into a deep sleep, so no matter who examined him, the final result was that he was asleep. The first time she indeed poisoned Sir Drew, the second time she originally planned to poison him again, but after a moment of thought, she changed her mind.

Xaviera had read the notes left by her grandfather, clearly stating that hypnotism could cause people to fall into a deep sleep, and this hypnotism could only be awakened by Xaviera’s specially prepared potion.

Now that the hypnotism was lifted, Sir Drew would wake up soon, and she hurriedly took out her phone to tell the Medical Association that they could come in and then quickly left the main house.

At this time, Xaviera raised the corner of her lips, looked at Caleb beside her, and smiled shyly, “Caleb! Why are you staring at me all the time? I’ll be embarrassed! There are so many people here!”

Caleb snorted coldly from his nostrils and looked away.

The ancestor grave visiting ceremony was officially started, but Ban Drew, the head of the Drew family, still hadn’t shown up. Uncle Drew from the offshoot couldn’t help but ask, “Boyd, why hasn’t the family head come yet?”

Finally, someone asked the question that had been on everyone’s mind; all eyes were fixed on Boyd Drew, waiting for his answer.

Boyd slowly raised his eyes, full of grief, but there was also a flash of calculation and relief in his eyes, hoping that Ban Drew would remain unconscious.

He took a deep breath and said word by word, “I’m sorry, everyone, my grandfather is still in a coma.”

Everyone knew that Lord Drew had fallen ill, but they didn’t expect him to stay unconscious for so many days and even miss the ancestor grave visiting ceremony.

Uncle Drew frowned and asked, “Boyd, what exactly is wrong with the family head, and why has he been in a coma for so long? Wasn’t it said that he…”

The words stopped abruptly, everyone knew in their hearts that Sir Drew had pretended to be sick a few days ago to force Caleb to give up the 5% of shares, so was he going to continue pretending even now during the ceremony?

The ancestor grave visiting ceremony should be presided over by the family head. With Sir Drew absent, everything had to be left to Boyd to handle. However, this would also imply that Boyd would be the next head of the Drew family, even though Sir Drew was still alive, which seemed inappropriate.

Everyone knew the reason why Sir Drew was still unconscious. After a moment of silence, someone asked out loud, “I heard that Caleb upset Lord Drew with the shares issue and made him ill?”

Xaviera sneered in her heart, Boyd was finally making his move, and the corners of his mouth raised a triumphant smile.

Vivian Drew’s face looked a bit unwell, and Boyd sighed beside her, “There were rumors, but…”

Hearing Boyd’s affirmative reply, everyone immediately began to chatter, “What I heard is that the 5% of shares is related to the Drew Corporation’s projects for the next quarter. That’s why the family head didn’t want to give the shares to Caleb. However, Caleb insisted on the shares, so the family head had to pretend to be sick to force him to give up.”

Xaviera knew that these people were clearly whitewashing for Sir Drew and Boyd. These words were probably thought up by Boyd himself, who had them memorized and then deliberately said them out loud in public.

She looked impatient as the people around her continued discussing the 5% of shares.

“Although it’s not really nice for Caleb to insist on getting shares from the Drew Corporation, it’s not right for Lord Drew to pretend to be sick either! After all, Caleb is a member of the Drew family and Winni Drew’s biological son, so giving him 5% of the shares isn’t excessive, is it!”
