197 Chapter 197: The Old Man Faints
Sir Coriell, constantly wiping his sweat, smiled obsequiously and said, “There must be some sort of misunderstanding. Our families have always maintained a good relationship, and the Mamet family has always supported the Coriell family. How could we want to end our relationship with you? Where did Caleb hear such rumor?”
Mrs. Coriell also explained with a smile, “Caleb, Vita crushed Miss Evans‘ plants. She realizes her fault and is here today to formally apologize. Vita.”
At Mrs. Coriell’s gesture, Vita Coriell walked over shyly.
Caleb Mamet remained composed, lazily sitting on the sofa with his long legs crossed, his eyes as ice, “It’s not me you need to apologize to. Does the Coriell family not understand this?”
Vita’s face was filled with injustice, struggling to suppress the anger in her heart.
Why should she apologize to Xaviera Evans? How could Caleb be so cruel?

That bitch was not worthy at all! If it weren’t for Xaviera Evans‘ interference, she would have married Caleb long ago!
Vita bit her lip, remaining silent. Mrs. Coriell quickly laughed and explained.
“Caleb, Vita did make a mistake, but her car was smashed, which makes them even. So there is no need to force her to apologize anymore. After all, she did all this because she likes you too much.” Mrs. Coriell’s voice echoed in the living room, leaving an awkward silence.
Caleb scanned everyone, then said dismissively, “If that’s the case, could everyone please leave.” Everyone present broke into a cold sweat.
Vita’s face turned as pale as death, she had almost bitten her lip till it bled.
She humbly came to apologize, yet Caleb dared to drive her away? She had never been treated this horribly…
All this was Xaviera Evans‘ fault!
Fury burning in her heart, Vita looked at Xaviera in the distance, furiously yelling, “Xaviera Evans! It was your idea! I’ve already humbled myself to come and apologize. What else do you want? You’re being too unreasonable!”
Xaviera looked indifferent, then, feigned weakness, “I haven’t heard Miss Coriell apologize yet, or did I just not hear it? Could Miss Coriell repeat it once more?”
Vita’s body was trembling, her eyes bloodshot. Xaviera Evans had dared to demand an apology from
her.
Coming to the Lowen Clubhouse was already giving Xaviera enough face. How can she still be so unrelenting?
Şir Coriell’s eyebrows knitted together in a frown, he half–shouted, “Miss Evans, you’re aware of the relationship between our two families, too. But ever since you married into the Mamet family, the Mamet family has gradually distanced itself from us. Now a few plants were ruined, and you destroyed

over ten cars from the Coriell family. Do you want Vita to kneel and apologize too? Aren’t you being too willful?”
Xaviera let out an incredulous laugh, though she didn’t mean it.
“Just a few plants? Does Sir Coriell truly believe that they were just plants?”
“I heard that the Coriell family values upbringing, so let me ask this: ignoring all the warning signs and rushing into the backyard and deliberately damaging the medicinal herbs, is that the type of upbringing the Coriell family instills? Shouldn’t you apologize?”
Sir Coriell was momentarily speechless, his beard quivering in his anger, “Miss Evans, the Coriell family and the Mamet family have a close relationship. Both in business and in our personal lives, we’re closely interlinked. You shouldn’t let your jealousy mess with Caleb…”
“Messing with Caleb? The Coriell family has been leeching off the Mamet family in business. Caleb even gifted the Coriell family a company to keep you leeches afloat. You should be the ones showing deference. Now, how did the tables turn? It seems as though you, the Coriell family, have made a large contribution to the Mamet family. Plus, Sir Coriell, you have no relation to Caleb, so stop acting like
an elder!”
After her statement, all the Coriell family members stared at Xaviera in anger.
Xaviera Evans was too hateful! What right did she have to speak for Caleb?
Vita only acted so foolishly because she liked Caleb. Why couldn’t Xaviera forgive her once?
Sir Coriell’s face turned a deep shade of green. Clutching his chest he stammered, “You…”
“Butler, please see the guests out,” Caleb interrupted coldly, a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.
