151 Chapter 151: Taking Action on Family Law
Mrs. Mamet’s eyes were sharp, and she gritted her teeth, “Caleb, it’s come to this, and you’re still covering for her. Yvette’s face is ruined, and Xaviera Evans, the instigator, is standing right here, saying all these harsh
words. You…”
Before she could finish talking, Caleb raised his hand to interrupt Mrs. Mamet.
Steve Price took out a notebook and placed it on the table, his face wearing a mocking smile.
Caleb’s eyes were filled with icy coldness, “My wife has a kind heart. She would never do such a thing. Even if she really did, it would be Yvette Flack deserved it. She provoked the wrong person by provoking my wife. So, Miss Flack, do you want to continue pursuing this?”
Kind–hearted?
Yvette Flack’s face turned deathly pale, and she pursed her l*ps tightly.
Mrs. Mamet and Mrs. Whitman stared angrily at Caleb,
151 Chapter 151 Taking Action on Family Law
“What are you talking about? Are you saying Yvette deliberately provoked Xaviera Evans? She is such an obedient child!”
“Yvette is the one who should be by your side, not a wife like this who is ruthless and always causing trouble. She has utterly disgraced our Mamet family!”
With that, Steve Price opened the computer and played the video inside.
A bad feeling welled up in Yvette Flack’s heart.
Caleb sneered coldly, his thin l*ps slightly parting: “The game is over, Miss Flack. Do you want to
continue…acting?”
Although his words were light, they were like heavy, sharp weapons piercing Yvette Flack’s heart.
Yvette Flack trembled all over, looking at Caleb in
disbelief.
Did Caleb know she was faking?
Impossible!
Just as Yvette Flack was panicking, Steve Price pushed the computer in front of everyone, and the picture on

151 Chapter 161: Taking Action on Family Law
the screen was of Xaviera Evans and Yvette Flack.
After Xaviera Evans entered the room, the two had a brief conversation. Although the surveillance video couldn’t capture what they were saying, Yvette Flack’s arrogant expression couldn’t deceive anyone.
In front of others, she pretended to be weak, but in front of Xaviera Evans, she was like a poisonous snake spitting its tongue. Her face was nauseating.
Just as Xaviera Evans was about to leave, a look of resentment flashed in Yvette Flack’s eyes, and she fiercely slammed her head against the wall, blood flowing down her forehead.
The surveillance camera captured it clearly: Xaviera Evans didn’t touch Yvette Flack at all.
Suddenly, the room was dead silent, and the faces of Mrs. Mamet and Mrs. Whitman turned pale, while Yvette Flack trembled all over, and her eyes gradually sank into a lifeless void.
Clap, clap, clap!
Caleb clapped his hands lazily, “Not bad, Miss Flack. Can you still say that my wife hurt you?”

151 Chapter 151 Taking Action on Family Law
Yvette Flack panicked, tears streaming down her face, “I…I must have lost my balance and fell. I was dizzy and confused, so I mistakenly thought Miss Evans had pushed me. I didn’t mean it really, I…”
Caleb curled his l*ps, and Steve Price put an examination report on the ground beside him, “You did hit your head, but it was just a little skin deep. It looks serious, but it’s not even a mild concussion. Yvette Flack, do you think you can play tricks with
me?”
Yvette Flack clenched her teeth, realizing that she was completely exposed. If she continued to pretend, the consequences would be ugly.
She cried out loudly, “Caleb, I really like you. When I learned that you had a wife, I resorted to this trick. Miss Evans is nice, but she’s not right for you. I know I shouldn’t have done this, but it was all for you!”
Mrs. Mamet’s face darkened, unhappy with Yvette Flack’s deceit, but even more unhappy with Caleb’s relentless pursuit for Xaviera Evans.
He had barely locked Xaviera Evans in the dark cell when he stormed in furiously.

151 Chapter 151: Taking Action on Family Law
Seeing the situation getting out of control, Mrs. Whitman immediately stepped forward to mediate, “Caleb, Yvette was just confused for a moment. She’s actually the kindest child. Now that the truth has
come to light and Miss Evans is fine, why don’t we just let it go? It wouldn’t be nice if word got out.”
“Let it go?” Caleb raised an eyebrow, and everyone immediately tensed up.
“Alright.”
Upon hearing Caleb’s words, Yvette Flack breathed a sigh of relief.
Caleb still had her in his heart, and now that Xaviera was safe, he couldn’t bring himself to punish her.
Just as she was fantasizing about how she could continue causing trouble, Caleb’s icy cold voice slowly came through.
“I heard you wanted to apply family law to my wife just now, but in fact, my wife was wronged. Since that’s the case, the real wrongdoer should be punished.”
Yvette Flack’s face turned deathly pale!
What?
151 Chapter 151 Taking Action on Family Law
Caleb… wanted to use family law on her?
She took a sharp breath, a cold chill rising in her heart.

Alongside
The Mamet family’s family law is like a thorny stick. If she gets beaten a few times, her b*dy will likely be covered in blood and wounds.
Mrs. Whitman froze for a moment, then burst into loud wails, “Mr. Mamet! Spare Yvette, please! Her delicate skin and tender flesh won’t withstand the
punishment. It could even cost her life!”
Caleb Mamet’s expression remained calm, “When you wanted to beat my wife, did you ever think about
whether she could bear it?”
Yvette Flack wailed miserably, resentment bubbling in her heart. Why should that bitch Xaviera be able to marry Caleb and gain his protection?
Xaviera was just a girl from the countryside, while she was a wealthy family’s daughter. The difference
between them was clear.
Furthermore, Xaviera wasn’t injured while she herself
had hit her head.
152 Chabler 15 Detecting You Alongside.
Mrs. Mamet’s face darkened, “Caleb, Yvette only did this because she liked you. That’s not wrong. And it was me who locked Xaviera in the dark cell. Do you
want to beat me too?”
Caleb chuckled lightly, “If you’ve done something wrong, you should be punished. If Mrs. Mamet asks for it willingly, I won’t refuse.”
“You!”
Mrs. Mamet’s face was twisted with anger.
Insane!
For the sake of Xaviera, Caleb had gone mad, even wanting to beat his own mother!
Caleb casually looked towards Steve Price, who instantly understood and opened the door to signal the b*dyguards outside.
The b*dyguards rushed in, roughly grabbing Yvette.
“Mrs. Mamet! Auntie!” Yvette struggled weakly, her panicked eyes looking toward Caleb, “Caleb! Mr. Mamet! I’m sorry, please spare me!”
“Caleb!” Mrs. Mamet shouted angrily. She never
352 Chapter 152 Dateating You Alongside
imagined that Caleb would be so audacious. She was consumed by rage, her whole b*dy trembling, “Stop!”
“It doesn’t matter what you say. Mrs. Mamet can’t stop me from doing what I want.”
Caleb toyed with an intricately patterned dart, his gaze slanting toward Mrs. Mamet as he chuckled, “I don’t even take you seriously. Are you saying that I can’t handle someone like Yvette? Or is it that Mrs.
Mamet wants to be punished alongside Yvette?”
Mrs. Mamet was livid, “You scoundrel! How dare you speak to your mother like that? For the sake of that bitch, you’re going to beat Yvette to death? That bitch Xaviera, how is she worthy of being the Mamet family’s daughter–in–law…”
Bang!
A loud noise interrupted Mrs. Mamet’s words.
The dart in Caleb’s hand flew past Mrs. Mamet’s
shoulder and embedded itself into the wall behind her.
He nonchalantly said, “Mrs. Mamet, watch your words. If you dare say ‘bitch‘ again, I can’t guarantee my patience will hold.”
152 Chapter 152. Debating You Alongside
After he finished speaking, he turned and left, while the b*dyguards dragged the wailing Yvette out. Mrs. Mamet and Mrs. Whitman were left trembling, not making a sound.
When Xaviera returned to her room, a WhatsApp
message from Albert Sullivan came through on her phone.
[Xaviera, are you going to participate in the translation competition? I heard that translation master Jakeson Walker is taking on apprentices. Do you want to apply?]
Xaviera replied disinterestedly, “No.”
Albert replied, [No problem. Our Xaviera is so talented that she wouldn’t even look at him.]
Xaviera threw her phone to the side, not because she thought little of anyone, but she felt disinterested, her
mind filled with Caleb’s face.
Why was he so concerned about her? So that he would put everything aside to save her?
Xaviera seemed to feel an inexplicable affection in her heart. Before, she was used to being strong and
162 Chapter 152: Defeating You Alongside
independent, not relying on anyone. But now there was Caleb, who stood up for her and protected her.
“Mr. Mamet has locked Miss Flack in the dark cell. Mrs. Mamet is about to explode…”
At this moment, the voices of several maids came through the door, surprising Xaviera.
Caleb had really locked Yvette up. Originally, she thought he wouldn’t go against Mrs. Mamet.
While pondering, her phone notification sounded again.
[Xaviera, the big shot your grandfather arranged to be your fiancé is at the Mamet family. Do you want to hide?]
Xaviera turned to stone.
The legendary big shot, the one who even her
grandfather and Albert held in awe, was actually at the Mamet family?
Right then, the door suddenly opened, and Caleb walked in.
Xaviera put down her phone to avoid Caleb seeing it.
caling You Alongside
His face didn’t look very good the last time Caleb brought up her fiancé. If he found out the man was in
the Mamet family, he might blow the roof off the
house.
Caleb narrowed his eyes, noticing Xaviera’s movement.
Ding…
The phone notifications kept ringing.
[Xaviera, let me tell you, that big shot is no joke. He holds some of the world’s rarest and most valuable elements. Their worth is immeasurable.]
[He has a big reputation overseas but keeps a low profile in the country. Very few people have met him, especially in academic research. There aren’t many who can rival him. In short, this person is indeed a magnate!]
Xaviera’s heart skipped a beat. No wonder even her conscending grandfather praised him so highly.
153 Chapter 153: Phony Girl Gets
Beaten
This person holds so many precious elements that many countries are envious, yet he manages to remain unharmed. It shows that his power and wealth are already on par with some nations.
“What’s so fascinating, Mrs. Mamet?” Caleb asked casually.
Xaviera was startled and quickly put away her phone. “Caleb, I heard you locked up Yvette?”
The man’s eyes were indifferent, and he sneered. Xaviera looked like she had done something guilty.
Xaviera looked nervously at Caleb, her heart in
turmoil.
Actually, she had no interest in the big shot, nor did she want to know who he was. However, she mustn’t
let Caleb know about it.
Caleb nodded nonchalantly, “She caused you to be locked up in the dark cell, so let her taste the same
experience.”
156 Chapter 153: Phony Girl Gets Beaten
A peculiar feeling welled up in Xaviera’s heart. She opened her mouth and whispered, “Thank you.”
As she raised her head, she met Caleb’s deep gaze.
Xaviera was taken aback, “Why are you staring at me like that?”
Is it strange to say thank you?
Caleb’s gaze was slightly cold, “It’s my negligence that gave them the opportunity. There’s no need for us to say thank you to each other in the future.”
Is it because they’re husband and wife, and saying that is too polite, or because the cause of the matter lies with him?
Xaviera suddenly felt a little frustrated, unable to articulate her feelings.
It seems Caleb is too protective of her.
“Ah!”
A scream suddenly came from outside the door.
Xaviera recognized Yvette’s voice, and her l*ps curled up. She pulled Caleb and rushed out.
“The phony girl got beaten? I want to see!”
153 Chapter 153 Phony Girl Gets Beaten
The Mamet family’s head butler saw Xaviera holding Caleb’s hand, and his heart skipped a beat. Mr. Mamet had never been so intimate with anyone else. It seemed that he would definitely be angry this time.
In the dark cell.
Steve held a thorny board in his hand, his face calm. “Miss Flack, I’m sorry.”
As he spoke, he raised the board.
At this moment, Mrs. Mamet felt a slight pain on her face. She reached out to touch it, only to find that a bump had appeared on her previously smooth face. Moreover, there was more than one bump, and they felt horrifying to touch.
She initially thought that she was upset because of Caleb, but when she looked up, she saw that Mrs. Whitman’s face was also covered with red bumps.
“Ah!!!”
Yvette’s screams filled the entire dark cell. “My face hurts so much! Deputy Officer Price, what did you do?”
Mrs. Mamet turned to look at Yvette, whose once
153 Chapter 153 Phony Girl Gets Beaten
smooth and fair face was now filled with disgusting bumps. When she accidentally burst one, yellow pus seeped out.
At this moment, she felt a sharp pain on her face.
Yvette looked at Mrs. Mamet and Mrs. Whitman and
screamed in horror.
Steve’s face was full of helplessness, “Miss Flack, you might as well stop shouting. If you want, I can continue beating you tomorrow. You can go back and
calm down first?”
Tears streamed down Yvette’s face, the salty tears getting on her wounds, causing her whole b*dy to tremble with pain. “My face is ruined, and you still
want to beat me? Wooo…”
Mrs. Mamet immediately ordered the maids to bring a mirror, and when she saw the reflection, she screamed
in shock.
At this moment, Xaviera led Caleb to the dark cell door at a leisurely pace. Hearing the screams inside, she whispered, “Your mom and your aunt are both getting beaten. Why are all three of them yelling together?”
09:00
153 Chapter 153 Phony Girl Gets Beaten
Inside the dark cell, the three women wailed miserably, “Call the doctor quickly! Save us!”
Xaviera looked inside, her l*ps curling up in a cold sneer. “Serves them right!”
Caleb looked down at Xaviera and said lightly, “There are monitors everywhere in the Mamet house. In less than ten minutes, we’ll know who hurt them.”
Xaviera showed no sign of nervousness, completely
unconcerned. “Oh.”
Soon, the doctor rushed over, examined them, and quickly came to a conclusion.
“The three of you have been poisoned. This is a strange grass from an African tribe. Although it is not very toxic in its original form, after extracting the fruit and leaves, you get a toxin. The extraction process is very complicated and expensive, with a certain period of latency for its toxicity. We can’t determine when he poisoning occurred.”
Caleb looked at Xaviera, “Aren’t you afraid?”
‘eigning surprise, Xaviera replied, “Why should I be fraid? I didn’t poison them. I’m just a country girl. I’ve
153 Chapter 183 Phony Cultists Duat
never been to Africa. How could I possibly have such a strange poison? How could a weak, helpless girl like me poison them?”
Caleb: “…”
Never mind, even if they found out Xaviera did it, it was not a big deal. As long as he was there, no one would harm a hair on her head.
After conducting thorough examinations, the doctors spoke gravely, “Mrs. Mamet, this poison can be transmitted through the air. The time of poisoning should be around four hours ago.”
Four hours?
Mrs. Mamet suddenly turned her head, her eyes filled with resentment as she glared at Xaviera. “You dare to poison me! I am your mother–in–law, and you want to disfigure me with such cruel methods! You are so vicious!”
vette and Mrs. Whitman cried helplessly at the side.
154 Chapter 154: Mrs. Mamet
Pretends to be Weak
Mrs. Mamet gritted her teeth in hatred, her son disregarded her, and her daughter–in–law even poisoned her; it was simply too humiliating. She was trembling with anger: “What are you waiting for! Tie this bitch up, I want her to pay!”
The servants‘ hearts skipped a beat as they glanced at Caleb. With this plague present, who would dare to act?
Mrs. Mamet was consumed with anger, and she knew why the servants didn’t dare to act. With Caleb present, who would dare to lay a hand on Xaviera Evans?
If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have kept this unfilial son!
When she said Caleb was her son, it was just to avoid trouble and make him work for her.
Unexpectedly, Caleb had become disobedient and
completely out of her control, even taking charge of
the entire Mamet family.
Mrs. Mamet gritted her teeth in hatred, her mind buzzing, “Fine! If you won’t listen to me, then I’ll do it myself! Xaviera, I’ll destroy your face-”
Caleb casually blocked Mrs. Mamet, his expression cold.
“Are you going against me for this woman? I’m your mother; if it weren’t for me, you would still be an insignificant bastard. Now…”
“Mrs. Mamet.” Suddenly, Xaviera interrupted her, “Why are you so sure that I did it?”
Mrs. Mamet roared angrily: “Other than you, who else could it be, you bitch…”
“But when you were poisoned, I was still in the dark cell.”
but
Xaviera’s eyes were full of grievances, and her face was innocent: “Mrs. Mamet, I know you don’t like me, to accuse me, there must be evidence. I couldn’t
possibly escape the dark cell to poison you. If you nsist on framing me, I have nothing to say, but so many eyes are watching!”
“You…”
Mrs. Mamet was momentarily speechless.
The crowd looked at one another and couldn’t help nodding.
That’s right, Xaviera had been in the dark cell all along, with no opportunity to poison anyone!
They knew in their hearts that Mrs. Mamet despised this daughter–in–law, but this was not Xaviera’s doing, yet she wanted to pin it on her.
Yvette Flack glared at Xaviera with resentment, not pretending to be a phony girl anymore, “Xaviera, stop quibbling. Only you could do such a poisonous act! You’re too heartless…”
Xaviera’s face was indifferent, “You were poisoned four hours ago.”
Yvette Flack quickly retorted: “The doctor’s words might not be accurate!”
Everyone looked at Yvette with mocking expressions.
Xaviera couldn’t help but laugh: “Miss Flack, the doctors that the Mamet family hires are all
The Cho 15 MPAT Paleis to be Weak
well–known in the industry. They save lives, heal the injured, and help countless patients. You can say whatever you want about me, but how can you tarnish the reputation of medical professionals?”
The servants‘ faces were unhappy, and they looked at Yvette with cold eyes.
With one sentence, Yvette had offended these medical professionals for no reason. Her desire to become the hostess of the Mamet family was but a pipe dream!
At this moment, the housekeeper came forward, looking helpless, “Madam, the surveillance shows that four hours ago, only you three were in the coffee shop, with no one else present.”
With Caleb standing nearby, the housekeeper didn’t dare to lie even if he borrowed two more guts.
And four hours ago, Xaviera had been in the dark cell the whole time, never leaving.
Mrs. Mamet, Mrs. Whitman, and Yvette were all in the Mamet family’s coffee shop.
The coffee shop was specifically for Mrs. Mamet’s guests, and even close servants were not allowed to
154 Chapter 154 Mrs. Mamet Pretends to be Weak
enter. Who had the ability to poison the three of them
in an instant?
The doctor’s expression was serious, “The poisonous weed can be inhaled through the nose, but its smell is pungent and easily detected. If it’s added to water, it’s colorless and tasteless, making it difficult to find out. You should think about whether you drank something?”
Everyone was startled and suddenly realized.
-The coffee shop was exclusively for Mrs. Mamet, and no one else was allowed to enter.
-The coffee they drank had been tested and shown no poison, but after drinking it, they were all poisoned.
-It was obvious that the person who poisoned them was Mrs. Mamet!
Xaviera sighed softly, her face full of grievances.
“Indeed, my status is not worthy of Caleb. Mrs. Mamet doesn’t like me and could have just driven me away. Now she even poisoned people to frame me, and also implicated Miss Flack and Mrs. Whitman to suffer.”
Xaviera changed her tone: “Could it be that this is a
154 Chapter 154: Mrs. Mamet Pretends to be Weak
scheme of the three of you? As long as I leave, Miss Flack can marry Caleb. I understand! I’ll leave right away! Miss Flack, I wish you happiness! Boo hoo hoo…”
After saying that, Xaviera covered her face and
sobbed.
Caleb: “…”
Caleb hugged Xaviera and whispered comfortingly, “Don’t cry, no one can drive you away.”
Xaviera sobbed, “Boo hoo… but your mother doesn’t like me, and this time she even accused me of poisoning people. If my guilt is established, how can I
have the face to live in this world!”
155 Chapter 155: Kind–hearted and Beautiful Mrs. Mamet
155 Chapter 155: Kind–hearted and
Beautiful Mrs. Mamet
Doctors all frowned. They all belonged to the Medical Association, and Mrs. Mamet relied on them to treat the Mamet family, so they had to speak up.
“Miss Flack, framing others for your sake is your family’s business, which is none of our concern.
However, we are very busy and could save more patients instead of wasting time with you!”
Another doctor discontentedly said, “If you want to set up Mrs. Mamet and drive her out of the Mamet family, do it more cleanly, Miss Flack. Instead, you left loopholes everywhere. Do you think we’re st* pid?”
Seeing that things had gone wrong, the butler said in a low voice, “Madam, you are in the wrong this time. If you don’t explain, Mr. Mamet’s temper is something you are well aware of. While he hasn’t lost his temper yet, make a quick apology. No matter what, he is your son and won’t say anything. Otherwise, it won’t be so simple when Mrs. Whitman comes to deal with it.”
09:01
155 Chapter 155 Kind–hearted and Beautiful Mrs. Mamet
Mrs. Mamet hated the idea of apologizing.
An apology to Xaviera Evans?
That’s ridiculous!
Caleb is her son, and even if Xaviera is wronged, what difference would it make to her?
Mrs. Mamet knew that if she apologized now, Caleb wouldn’t pursue the matter further since she was Mrs.
Mamet.
Even if Caleb held a grudge, Xaviera, as the daughter–in–law, would have to give face to her mother– in–law.
In the end, Mrs. Mamet said through her clenched teeth, “Miss Evans, I was wrong.”
Xaviera innocently shook her head, “It’s okay, Mrs. Mamet, I know you hate me, and I forgive you. Let’s put this behind us.”
People around them whispered in praise of Xaviera’s beauty and kindness.
Yvette Flack clenched her teeth in anger, Xaviera beautiful and kind–hearted?
155 Chapter 155 Kind–hearted and Beautiful Mrs Mamet
Yvette Flack’s face filled with disbelief, she had been poisoned and almost disfigured!
How come in the end she became the culprit, and Xaviera ended up being the one everyone praised?
Was this a reversal?
“Miss Flack, what are you thinking? Are you unconvinced?” Xaviera took the opportunity to approach Yvette and asked softly.
“When I was locked in the dark cell, if Caleb hadn’t come back to save me, I’d definitely have been subjected to the family law, and I’d have been the one to be disfigured!”
“You tried to hurt me but ended up hurting yourself, that’s called fighting fire with fire!”
Yvette was trembling with rage, yelling in her heart.
Ah!
But she dared not speak up because no one would believe her words.
In the end, she could only watch Xaviera and Caleb walk away hand in hand with smiles on their faces.
156 Chapter 185: Kind–hearted and Beautiful Mrs. Mamet
Once they left, Caleb glanced at her casually, “Why did the doctors diagnose that the poisoning happened four hours ago?”
It was impossible for anyone to suspect Xaviera because Mrs. Mamet, Mrs. Whitman, and Yvette Flack
were poisoned four hours prior.
If Xaviera had not been locked in the dark cell then,
even if there was no footage of her, Mrs. Mamet would bite the bullet and say Xaviera poisoned them.
But it just so happened that it was Mrs. Mamet who ordered Xaviera to be locked in the dark cell, which turned out to be a self–inflicted mess.
Caleb thought, as a matter of fact, regardless of whether he came back or not, nothing would happen to Xaviera. She was purposely waiting in the dark cell for the poison to take effect on the three, creating an alibi.
In this way, no one would suspect her of poisoning.
Xaviera looked at him innocently, “Mr. Mamet, what are you saying? Do you think I poisoned them too? I’m so weak, I couldn’t do anything so cruel, and I was in the dark cell!”
155 Chapter 155 Kind hearted and Beautiful Mrs. Mamet
“Heh!” Caleb sneered and twitched the corner of his mouth, “You poisoned them before you were locked into the dark cell, when Mrs. Mamet dragged you to apologize to Yvette.”
Caleb thought, only at that time would Xaviera have enough time to sprinkle the poison on Mrs. Mamet without anyone noticing.
Then, after they went to Yvette’s room, Mrs. Whitman ridiculed Xaviera and she sprinkled the poison on her
too. From NôvelDrama.Org.
Finally, when Xaviera and Yvette were alone, it was even easier.
Xaviera hesitated, “…”
Damn! She has been exposed.
Did her fragile appearance not seem convincing?
How did Caleb see through her?
Xaviera composed herself and continued to look pitifully at Caleb.
“Mr. Mamet, you’re wronging me! Wooo, how could I possibly poison them? Does this mean you don’t trust
me?”
Caleb’s face was calm, “The poison powder itself is weak and harmless, even when sprinkled on the b*dy. But if it comes into contact with coffee, then the poison will take effect.”
Xaviera’s smile vanished instantly, “Mr. Mamet, I don’t understand what you mean.”
Caleb nonchalantly replied, “Mrs. Mamet had a sore throat today, so she wanted to soothe it with coffee. I suppose you were behind her sore throat too.”
Xaviera was speechless. How did this man know?
