Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband
Chapter 588 - 588: If You Don’t Want Anyone to Know, Don’t Do It YourselfChapter 588: Chapter 588: If You Don’t Want Anyone to Know, Don’t Do It Yourself
Nidya Hughes looked at the aloof Caleb Mamet, her face filled with mockery. It seemed that Mr. Caleb Mamet was supremely confident that no one would ever uncover this secret. Alternatively, there was a possibility that he didn’t care about Xaviera Evans at all, and wouldn’t mind even if she were to learn about it. How else could he remain so composed?
Any woman would be unable to endure this kind of secret, let alone a woman as jealous as Xaviera. She would definitely be unable to accept the truth.
Nidya Hughes’s face contorted in fear, her eyes filled with a tinge of terror. “Mr. Mamet, you asked for it. If I spill it, don’t point your anger at me!”
She suddenly raised her head, her gaze filled with scorn directed towards Xaviera, an unhinged laugh erupting from her lips. The next moment, she spoke words that sent shockwaves through the crowd.
“Xaviera, I bet, you have no idea that Mr. Caleb has an illegitimate child!”
Bang—! !
The crowd stirred into murmurs.
Everyone looked at her incredulously, finding the news hard to stomach.
Nidya Hughes burst into laughter. “Skeletons in the closet eventually come out, Xaviera. You won’t escape being seen! You’ve probably not been to the courtyard at the Lowen Clubhouse, right? That’s where he’s hiding the child. He has an illegitimate child from another woman. You should part ways with him right away, he doesn’t genuinely love you!”
“I can’t imagine you accepting your own husband having an illegitimate child. It’d be better for you to divorce him now and let Anna marry Caleb Mamet in your stead.”
Then, she turned to Caleb Mamet, her eyes manic. “Mr. Mamet, as I told you long ago, Xaviera is not suited to you. Her silence now proves she cannot accept your past. However, Anna is different. She can come to terms with this matter because she is generous and tolerant. Now you understand who is truly meant for you, don’t you!”
The room fell deadly silent.
Mrs. Russell’s eyes were shrouded in a veil of fury as she shot a cold glare at Caleb Mamet.
The young masters of the Russell family also displayed their discomfort. If Caleb Mamet did have an illegitimate child, does that mean their sister would have to become a stepmother?
Nidya Hughes reveled in the silence of the crowd, her brazen behavior escalating. “Hehe… only Anna…”
“Mrs. Campbell,” Caleb Mamet interrupted.
All eyes turned to him. The man lifted his tired eyes lazily. “Is this illegitimate child you’re speaking of the one who has been living in the Lowen Clubhouse courtyard for a year?”
Nidya Hughes responded without hesitation. “Indeed, it’s him!”
“I see…” Mr. Caleb Mamet said as he let out a deep, meaningful laugh. He then leaned towards Nidya Hughes and whispered something that only the two of them could hear.
Nidya Hughes’s expressions shifted from rampant to utter disbelief. In a frantic denial, she shook her head, “Impossible! This is impossible!”
Caleb Mamet mocked, “The informants that Mrs. Campbell sent were really amateurish. They reported to you without confirming the facts. No wonder the Campbell family is beginning to go downhill.”
Caleb Mamet returned to Xaviera’s side and held her hand, his expression gentle. “Let’s go upstairs.”
Nidya Hughes’s eyes were hollow. She never expected this sole trump card to have no effect on Caleb Mamet. Instead, it backfired, landing a heavy blow on her.
Jeremy Campbell’s angry roar echoed in the air, intermingled with Anna Campbell’s sobbing. Nidya Hughes felt overwhelmed by the tumult in her mind, her vision went dark as she collapsed weakly onto the floor.
Watching the Campbell family members’ disgraceful exit, Mrs. Russell’s face was full of disgust. She waved her hand, instructing the bodyguards to carry the collapsed woman away.
Jerome Russell frowned, appearing to hesitate. “Grandmother, this… this Mr. Mamet… unexpectedly have illegitimate children. Why didn’t we discover it before?”
His elder brother Julian Russell was usually more composed, but now carried a somber expression. “If Mr. Mamet does… has an illegitimate child, he would not let others know about it so easily. Grandmother, do you think Aunt Hughes is telling the truth?”
Mrs. Russell’s face was stern.
She was not certain. While Nidya Hughes appeared deeply convinced, Caleb Mamet did not seem the type to commit such actions.
“We’ve heard rumors that Mr. Caleb Mamet has always been modest and honorable, free from lust and women. There were no women in his life prior to his marriage and no scandalous rumors about him. The Mamet family, unlike the Russell family, does not hold strict rules. It is indeed strange. Could he be hiding some other woman?” Jerome Russell speculated.
Mrs. Russell felt as if a fishbone was stuck in her throat.
At her age, she had seen plenty of such incidents and had even survived her husband’s infidelity and the cunning mistress. She hoped for Xaviera to find a man who would truly love her and not let her experience such suffering. But now, hearing that the man had an illegitimate child?
