147 Chapter 147: Love is too
terrifying
Yvette Flack looked emotional, “Xaviera Evans, you’re not going anywhere until you give up your position as Mrs. Mamet. You can’t just leave! Do you really think you can win Caleb’s heart? Look at how long you’ve been oppressed, and has Caleb come to look for you? He doesn’t love you at all!”

Xaviera paused for a moment, but only for a second before continuing to walk forward.
Yvette sneered, “Xaviera, today I not only called you here to apologize, but also to kick you out of the Mamet family!”
Suddenly, there was a loud noise behind her.
She looked back instinctively and saw Yvette lying on the ground, blood streaming from her forehead, quickly soaking her clothes. Yvette looked at Xaviera with pleading eyes, “Miss Evans, can you spare me… I was wrong. I shouldn’t have fought with you over Caleb, I shouldn’t have talked back to you. If you say

I’m his mistress, then I am. Please, can you give me a chance to live?”
Upon hearing the commotion, the servants broke into
the room.
“Miss Flack, are you alright?” The frantic servants helped Yvette up. This was Mrs. Mamet’s honored guest, and if she were hurt in their home, wouldn’t they be implicated as well?
Mrs. Whitman rushed in, “Yvette, how are you?
Xaviera, you wicked girl, are you jealous of Yvette and
want to ruin her? How could there be such a sinister
woman in this world!”
Yvette’s face was full of blood, her lips pale to the extreme, “Auntie, I’m fine, don’t blame Miss Evans. It’s all my fault, everything is my fault…”
One of the servants, afraid that the incident might affect them, quickly yelled, “Miss Evans, Mrs. Mamet asked you to come here to apologize to Miss Flack, not to hurt her. Now that Miss Flack is injured because of you, just wait, Mrs. Mamet will definitely punish you!”
Xaviera looked at the wound on Yvette’s forehead, knowing that the woman had shown no mercy in
147 Chapter 147: Love is too terrifying
harming herself in order to frame her.
Was it really worth torturing oneself like this for the
sake of a man?
Before she could think further, Mrs. Whitman cried
out, “Capture this bitch, Xaviera, and punish her according to Mamet family law! I will avenge our Yvette!”
Xaviera saw the triumphant look in Yvette’s eyes and
furious Mrs. Whitman, and she had to admit that Yvette’s performance and her unconditional supporters, who believed everything she said, were indeed annoying.
She knew that no matter whether she had hurt Yvette today or not, they would do everything to pin the crime on her, and even if she explained that it was not her doing, they wouldn’t listen. They only believed what they saw.
So Xaviera simply remained silent, not wanting to waste her breath on them.
More importantly, she didn’t understand why Yvette would engage in such self–harming behavior. Like Mag Evans and Yvette… they both desperately fought for
147 Chapter 147: Love is too terrifying
the man they liked, even if it meant hurting themselves and framing others. Was this called love?
But if this behavior represents love, isn’t love too terrifying?
Xaviera was taken to the dark cell by the servants; Mrs. Whitman, watching Yvette’s wound with almost faint heartache, naturally didn’t notice the smug smile
on Yvette’s face.
In the dark cell, Xaviera looked around nonchalantly. A
small dark cell wouldn’t be able to hold her. In the
pitch–black darkness, she took out her phone and quickly broke through the signal shielding around the
cell.
She hesitated whether to contact Caleb… Actually, it didn’t matter if she didn’t find Caleb, she could still get out on her own. She was reflecting on why she
thought of Caleb when she encountered any problem. This habit was not good.
