Chapter 1179 - Chapter 1179 Chapter 1187 Expensive Fountain Pen

Chapter 1179: Chapter 1187: Expensive Fountain Pen Chapter 1179: Chapter 1187: Expensive Fountain Pen Caleb Mamet fell into deep thought. He remembered that Xaviera Evans was afraid of water, so she hated anything related to water. However, the Xaviera in his dream was not afraid of water.

He turned his head and looked at Xaviera’s profile. She was staring intently at the wind chime with more shells than Tylor’s artwork. She shook the wind chime, and the shells collided with each other, making a rustling sound. It was indeed very ordinary, and there was nothing special about it. However, holding the wind chime in her hand, Xaviera inexplicably felt a sense of intimacy, as if she had once loved this wind chime very much.

This thought crossed her mind for just a moment, but Xaviera couldn’t remember whether it was a dream or something that had truly happened. It seemed that she liked wind chimes only when she was a child, but why would she suddenly have a dream where Caleb was holding an identical shell wind chime?

After a long silence, Caleb softly asked, “Did you buy this shell before?”

Xaviera hesitated for a moment, “I didn’t buy it, and it’s impossible for me to make a wind chime myself. It must have been a gift from someone else.”

With that said, it seemed that everything was connected with the dream. Xaviera was silent for a while, then suddenly looked up at Caleb, “Wasn’t this shell given to me by you?”

Caleb had never had toys when he was a child, and as he grew up, he focused on hacking technology and company affairs. He had never tried to make such handicrafts that girls liked, and it was hard to imagine himself making a shell wind chime.

After a long time, Xaviera didn’t hear his response and didn’t ask any further. After all, it was just her dream. She happened to have a shell wind chime, which had nothing to do with Caleb.

Xaviera got up to sort out her mother’s belongings. She dragged out a storage box from the corner, and Caleb picked up a golden pen from the dusty box, raising an eyebrow, “Who gave this to you?”

Xaviera thought for a moment, “It was a time when I was shopping, and I participated in a small game. The boss gave it to me. It’s not very useful, so I threw it in the storage box.”

Caleb looked at the 500,000-dollar pen in surprise, “Isn’t it useful?”

“Yes.” Xaviera nodded her head, “The pen looks really nice, but it’s not useful at all. Later, I bought a fifty-dollar pen that was very useful.”

Caleb’s fingers caressed the pattern on the pen and whispered, “If you don’t like it, don’t use it. Just use it as a decoration.”

“You’re right! This pen also looks pretty on the desk. I wanted to throw it away before, but after all, I won it in a game, so I couldn’t bear to throw it.”

Caleb asked curiously, “What game?”

Xaviera recalled, “When I was thirteen years old, one day after school, a boy took me to participate in a small game on my cell phone. There were rewards for passing the game, and he gave me a pen. This prize was probably the best-looking of all the gifts. It’s just a pity it’s not useful.”

Caleb paused for a moment, “Did you not tell Albert Sullivan about this?”

Xaviera looked puzzled, “Why would I tell Albert about this trivial matter? That day he had something to attend to and couldn’t pick me up after school. By the time I saw him again, several days had passed, and I had already put the pen into the storage box, so he didn’t know about it.”

So that was it! No wonder Xaviera had thrown this million-dollar pen into the storage room to collect dust. However, who had given Xaviera such an expensive pen through a street game? And the gift-giver was a man, too?

Caleb’s eyes darkened as he continued to ask, “Xaviera, do you remember what that person looked like? Or how old he was, or any characteristics?”

Xaviera tried her best to recall, “It’s been so long that I can’t remember clearly. I remember he was wearing all black casual clothes, with a mask on, showing a pair of deep, vivid eyes. He should be a handsome guy. Moreover, he personally handed me the pen and said that he had carefully chosen this gift for me, so I think it must be the best among all the prizes.”

A glint flashed in Caleb’s eyes. If he investigated who bought a pen of this style seven years ago, he might discover something. Since the man was wearing a mask, it seemed that he was not willing to show his face. Before getting the results of the investigation, he didn’t want to tell Xaviera, so as not to make her overthink.

Xaviera was sitting on the chair, sorting things out, while Caleb found an empty room to work in. Perhaps because he didn’t sleep well the night before, he actually fell asleep leaning on the desk.

In reality, he did not enjoy handicrafts, yet in his dreams, he was holding a shell wind chime, because he had heard that Black Tide liked the sound of wind chimes.

Chapter 1188: The Diamond Bracelet is Missing

Caleb had always thought that these things were childish and boring, and he never had time to collect shells on the beach and make wind chimes. Yet, he didn’t know when a shell wind chime had appeared in his hand.Perhaps dreams don’t need logic, everything seems so absurd.

In the dream, Mortimer gave the wind chime to Black Tide, who happily accepted it, shaking it in his hand, sweetly smiling and saying, “The sound of the wind chime is so beautiful!”

Mortimer revealed a satisfied smile, but it quickly disappeared. He, who was usually so indifferent, did not seem accustomed to his smiling self. His voice remained cold, “What’s so beautiful about the sound of shells clashing? I’ll give you better gifts in the future.”

The next second, Black Tide placed the wind chime near his ear and gently shook it. For some reason, the ordinary wind chime suddenly sounded pleasant at that moment.

Mortimer was momentarily stunned, then nodded, “It does sound nice. I won’t give it to you anymore, I’ll keep it for myself.”

Black Tide hurriedly protected the wind chime in his arms, sweetly smiling, “No! You’ve already given it to me. This wind chime is mine now. You can’t take it back. And you have to give me more gifts in the future!”

Looking at the girl’s childish and innocent smile, Mortimer couldn’t help but curve his lips upward.

Caleb Mamet’s consciousness was pulled out of the dream. He suddenly opened his eyes, feeling a slight headache. Why would he dream of shell wind chimes? Could it be that the wind chime was really the one he gave to Xaviera Evans?

Caleb sat in the chair for a moment before getting up and leaving the room. As soon as he stepped out, he bumped into Xaviera holding the wind chime. “Everything’s packed. Let’s go.”

“Um…” She hesitated, “Could you ask Sean Price to help me find a more reliable housekeeper? I don’t trust this one too much.”

“Okay.” Caleb responded.

On the other hand, in a luxury car near the Evans Villa, Nidya Hughes’s face was gloomy, “I didn’t expect Xaviera to show up suddenly. Otherwise, we would have taken the stuff and left by now!”

Zora Hughes’s eyes reddened in grievance, “Aunt…”

Nidya couldn’t bear to scold Zora, only gently chiding her, “Zora, you’re the daughter of the Hughes family. You’ve seen all kinds of good things. Why did you insist on that worthless shell wind chime? And even if you broke a wind chime by accident, was it necessary to apologize to her? Xaviera has countless treasures in her hand, she won’t care about a wind chime. There’s no need for you to demean yourself to apologize to her!”

Zora’s voice trembled slightly, “I was just afraid that Xaviera wouldn’t be willing to give me an expensive gift in return, so I chose the least valuable wind chime. I didn’t expect her to refuse even that. Later, when I accidentally broke the wind chime, I was afraid that Xaviera would think I did it on purpose, so I hurriedly apologized. But she still didn’t forgive me.”

Listening to the conversation between the two, the driver was speechless. He had been standing at the door waiting and had heard Miss Hughes apologize, but Mrs. Hughes had pulled Miss Hughes out before Miss Evans could even speak. She treated her niece better than her own daughter, which was really strange.

At this moment, Zora quietly took the bracelet out of the box and stuffed it into the pocket of her coat. Since Xaviera didn’t give them any face, Zora would show her no mercy.

The inheritance left by Nina Hughes belonged to the Hughes family. Why should Xaviera keep it for herself? Zora was determined to make Xaviera pay the price!

After stuffing the million-dollar bracelet into her coat pocket, Zora pretended to be flustered and searched around. Just as the driver was about to drive away, she cried out in panic, “Wait!”

The driver slammed on the brakes.

Nidya frowned unhappily, “Zora, what’s wrong now?”

Zora appeared distraught, “Aunt, my diamond bracelet is missing. I was planning to wear it for a business event, but now it’s gone. What should I do?”

Nidya sat up and reached for the velvet box, opening it to find it empty.

Zora dumped all the contents of her bag onto the car seat, her eyes red with distress, “It’s not in the jewelry box, nor in my bag. Where did the bracelet go? Could it have fallen in the Evans Villa?”

“Aunt, it’s a million-dollar bracelet. I have to go back and look for it.” Zora said hesitantly, “But… But Xaviera won’t let me in.”

At the moment when the two were hesitating, Nidya saw Xaviera and Caleb’s car leaving. She immediately decided, “They’re gone. Let’s go in and look, regardless of whether she agrees or not. If a million-dollar bracelet is lost, she must let us in to find it.”
