Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband

Rumor had it that Xaviera Evans had a weak constitution—a sickly beauty. Rumor had it that she spent a fortune every day on medications—eating them like candy. Rumor had it that ten servants waited on her by her bed every day—a burden to everyone. They were all waiting for the Evans family to toss Xaviera Evans back to the countryside and leave her to fend for herself. Xaviera Evans: "They're all saying that I'm weak and can't take care of myself. Apparently, I spend money recklessly as well.” She looked down at her tattered shirt and was exasperated. Xaviera Evans: “Are you saying that this wealthy family lets their daughter wear tattered clothes every day?” The Evans family's rich daughter? She had enough! She would not be it anymore! Therefore… Scumbag guy: "Without the Evans family, you're nothing." Xaviera Evans: "If I'm kicked out of the Evans family, I'll be done for." Scumbag girl: "Sis, don't be too disappointed. As long as you work hard, you'll be praised one day.” Xaviera Evans: "Shut up, I don't know a traitor like you." The scumbag guy and girl: "???" Rumor had it that the Mamet family's youngest son, Caleb Mamet, rashly married a woman who had nothing but looks. Xaviera Evans: "Is someone looking down on me?" One day, Xaviera Evans saw one of Caleb Mamet's employees racking his brains over a series of numbers on the computer screen. Since she was free, she lent a hand. Did she just crack the firewall created by the joint efforts of top elite hackers?! Caleb Mamet inched closer with every step. "Xaviera, what else are you hiding from me? Hmm?" Xaviera Evans: "Oh, no! I feel dizzy again! I'm so weak. This body of mine is just too weak!"

Chapter 144: The Unique Taste of the Gift

"My grandmother's health has been poor lately, and you've all been so busy with work. I don't know when we'll meet again. I don't know when the jade carving will be done either. How about this, let me give you a different gift instead."

Xaviera Evans was about to say there was no need when Madam Mamet took out a dark object from her side and stuffed it into her hand without allowing any room for refusal. "Just take this as a gift. Don't be too picky."

Xaviera stared at the item in her hand, silent for three seconds. "..."

Was this gift a bit too heavy?

She was speechless for a moment, and if the time and place were not appropriate, she would really like to grab Caleb Mamet's collar and ask: Does everyone in the Mamet family give pistols as gifts?!

Caleb's first gift to her was a beautiful silver pistol, and now Madam Mamet had given her a black one... Indeed, they were family, with very unique tastes.
