Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband - Chapter 923: 923: Public Opinion is a Lethal Weapon

Chapter 923: Chapter 923: Public Opinion is a Lethal Weapon

This was originally a beautiful love story, but later on, Xaviera Evans stole Nidya from the Hughes family and secretly contacted Mr. Caleb Mamet, making him believe that she was the Hughes family’s little girl. After all, many years have passed, and her appearance has certainly changed. Moreover, the two only had a brief encounter, so Mr. Mamet couldn’t really confirm if she was the girl from back then.

However, when he found out that Xaviera was the chairman of Windrop Entertainment, he was sure that she was the person he had been looking for. And so, Xaviera married Caleb Mamet and became Mrs. Mamet. Caleb loved and tolerated her, but no one knew that the person who should have married him was Zora Hughes.

The reporters’ mouths widened in shock, as such a plot that only appeared in TV dramas had actually happened. Moreover, Zora was an internationally renowned perfumer with numerous fans, and now, due to the stolen marriage engagement, her fan base surged by millions overnight.

Cory sighed, his voice trembling slightly, “Now that things have come to this point, there’s no way to change it. But it’s undeniable that Xaviera did something wrong, and she should apologize to Zora.”

Zora is the daughter of the Hughes family, she is so outstanding, and she doesn’t care about marrying into a wealthy family. She won’t be able to marry Mr. Mamet, but in the future, she’ll meet her own Mr. Right.”

As Cory spoke, he looked at Zora with a pained expression. “Earlier, some people claimed that Zora liked Mr. Mamet and wanted to break up his marriage to Xaviera. That’s nonsense! She’s clearly wronged, but she won’t even speak out. How could she do such a thing?”

At this point, the chat room exploded with indignation as netizens commented, “Miss Hughes is so pitiful. She could have had a happy marriage and been with the person she loves, but now she can only watch others display their affection.”

“Moreover, Miss Hughes is so kind-hearted. Even though she knows her cousin impersonated her and married Mr. Mamet, she doesn’t want to blame her and even defends her reputation.”

“Sir Hughes is right! Miss Hughes has a prestigious background, there’s no need to fight over a man with Mrs. Mamet. In the future, she’ll meet someone better. But Mrs. Mamet shouldn’t accept it so easily! She must apologize to Miss Hughes!”

Zora looked at the comments in the live chat and revealed a smug smile. Public opinion was a powerful weapon, and now Xaviera was like a fish on a chopping board, with no power to control her own fate. All Zora had to do was magnanimously forgive Xaviera and demand a public apology from her, after which Xaviera would never be able to raise her head again.

After that, Zora would seize the opportunity to get closer to Mr. Mamet, make him distance himself from Xaviera, and replace her. By that time, everyone would understand her because she would simply be retrieving what belonged to her in the first place.

At this moment, Xaviera stood not far away, watching them indifferently. It was then that everyone realized that Mrs. Mamet was standing right behind them.

“Mrs. Mamet is here!” someone shouted, and everyone immediately looked up to locate her. They saw her dressed in a beige long dress with a matching coat draped over her shoulders, which made her look very elegant. Facing the different gazes from the crowd, she showed no signs of nervousness, only looking up calmly.

As soon as Cory saw her, he approached her. Before the reporters could catch up, he lowered his voice and threatened, “Xaviera, you’d better keep mum today, or you’ll pay for it!”

“Is Sir Hughes threatening me?” Xaviera scoffed, her eyes full of disdain. “Do you think I’m Zora, letting you manipulate me at will?”

“If you ruin Zora’s good fortune, I won’t let you off!” warned Cory, his voice deep and his eyes filled with fierceness.

Xaviera lowered her gaze and coldly replied, “So Sir Hughes wants to use public opinion to force me into divorce and let Zora take my place? What a brilliant plan!”

Cory’s eyes turned icy, and as the reporters approached, he fell silent.

“Sir Hughes is too funny. You and Zora wronged me, yet I’m not allowed to refute it? What kind of logic is that? Should I just let you treat me like a soft persimmon that can be freely squeezed?”

Cory’s face turned pale, “This engagement involved both the Hughes and Mamet families, and the whole Hughes family stands by Zora’s side. On what grounds did you marry Mr. Mamet? What qualifications do you have?”

“If Nidya were here, she would definitely publicly criticize you for stealing Zora’s engagement, and you would lose face. We’ve given you a way out, don’t be ungrateful!”
