Chapter 912: Chapter 912: Overbearing CEO Protecting His Wife
“Windrop Entertainnt is indeed the property my mother left , but Sir Hughes and my grandmother divorced decades ago, and they had already divided the property at that ti. Since then, my mother never returned to the Hughes family and lived with my grandmother. My mother established Windrop Entertainnt with the money from my grandmother, and now it’s left to . Logically and emotionally, the company has nothing to do with the Hughes family. I would like to share Windrop Entertainnt with you, but I believe my mother would not agree from the spirit in heaven.”
“After your divorce with my grandmother, you never had any connection with my mother again. You didn’t even co to see her when she passed away. She resented that. Therefore, transferring Windrop Entertainnt’s shares to you is against my mother’s will. Moreover, the two companies have already rged, and a part of these shares also belongs to Caleb Mat. I really can’t make the decision.”
Xaviera’s tone was full of sadness, and she sighed helplessly, “I’ve never t you, but I didn’t expect our first encounter would be like this.”
Her voice choked more, “You despised for being abandoned by the Evans family and living alone outside, so you don’t recognize as a mber of the Hughes family and don’t allow to call you grandpa. I can understand that, but…”
At this mont, the Mat Corporation’s employees could no longer stand by and watch, and they indignantly said, “When Mrs. Mat was alone and stranded in the past, the Hughes family despised her, refused to let her return ho, and didn’t even allow her to call her grandpa. Now that they know she’s married to the president and is also Windrop Entertainnt’s chairman, they’ve co to blackmail her morally. Do you people have no sha?”
The receptionist also snorted coldly, “You just want to take advantage of Mrs. Mat’s wealth and power. Where were you when she suffered and was wronged as a child? Now that you see her success, you co to the company to put on a show. Have you no sha?”
“Even the man from Garye Company is sick, blindly helping that woman just because she’s attractive and montarily driven by lust.”
With that, the man from Garye Company’s face turned red with sha, and he lowered his head in embarrassnt. Zora Hughes, who was standing nearby, wished she could find a hole to crawl into. She clenched her lips and tried to calm herself down for a long ti before speaking tremulously, “Xaviera, Grandpa has never said such things. You are always a mber of the Hughes family, and you are his granddaughter. Over the years that you’ve been away, we’ve all been worried about you, and Mrs. Nidya has always been concerned. How can you think of us like this? Grandpa would be heartbroken if he heard what you said!”
Zora’s anger surged; she had co today to force Xaviera to hand over the shares, but instead, she found herself accused of wrongdoing. Suppressing the anger in her heart, Zora gritted her teeth and said, “You’ve really misunderstood. We have never thought of seizing Windrop Entertainnt’s shares. We just ca here to see you. You shouldn’t maliciously misinterpret our intentions!”
“Maliciously misinterpret?”
Then, a chilling voice ca from nearby, a man with an upright posture exuding a regal aura. The mont he appeared, everything around him lost its brightness.
Behind Caleb Mat stood a group of n and won in professional attire, all high-level executives of the Mat Corporation. As Caleb slowly approached, people made way for him, acknowledging the owner of the Mat Corporation—a man of extraordinary wealth and handso appearance. When he appeared, the entire hall fell silent, and many female employees blushed.
Caleb walked straight to Xaviera, pulling her into his embrace. Then, with his deep eyes, he looked at Zora and spoke coldly, “Miss Hughes, can you explain what you an by ‘maliciously misinterpreting’?”
Zora’s eyes widened in fright, unable to et Caleb’s gaze. His mouth curled up slightly, and then he said nonchalantly, “Miss Hughes, Mrs. Mat is pure and kindhearted, not malicious in any way. What she said is nothing more than the truth.”
Zora clenched her teeth—the pure and kindhearted Xaviera? She was clearly the most cunning and vicious woman!
However, in front of Caleb, she needed to maintain her image, so she spoke softly, “Mr. Caleb Mat, you’ve really misunderstood.”
The man responded indifferently, “Miss Hughes, you ca to the door yesterday pretending to be Windrop Entertainnt’s chairman’s friend and seized Mrs. Mat’s position as CEO. Today, you and Sir Hughes ca again. Is it not that Miss Hughes and Sir Hughes want Windrop Entertainnt?”
Steve Price: “That must be it! Miss Hughes brought Sir Hughes today to show off sisterly love, but it’s not unreasonable for the lady to suspect you want Windrop Entertainnt!”
Caleb nodded in satisfaction—an assistant who ca useful in critical monts was worth hiring.
