Chapter 142: The Promise Made During Childhood

Yvette Flack feigned surprise, covering her mouth: "So, Miss Evans is not from Libanan, but from the countryside..."

Without finishing her sentence, she pretended to suddenly realize her mistake and apologized shyly to Caleb: "Sorry, family head, I didn't mean to say anything bad about Miss Evans; I'm just surprised to learn about her background."

Caleb suddenly turned to look at her. This was the first time he had looked straight at Yvette since entering the room. She blushed, thinking that her words caught Caleb's attention and finally made him fed up with Xaviera.

After all, how could someone like Caleb marry a lowly woman like Xaviera? She had heard that they got married because Xaviera took advantage of a vulnerable situation and forced Caleb to marry her at the Civil Affairs Bureau. Now that Caleb knew about the unsavory past and background of the person by his side, he must be disgusted with her, right?
