Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband

Chapter 834: Chapter 834: Ordinary Yet Confident

“Now that the evidence is irrefutable, and Mr. Drew remains unrepentant, even if the Drew family hires the best lawyer, there is absolutely no chance of winning. Nevertheless, the Drew family is a prominent household in Libanan, and with your connections and Mr. Drew’s good behavior, he should be able to get out in a few years. It’s just a pity that Mr. Drew will be a convicted man afterwards; I’m not sure if there’s still a chance for him to be the heir.”

Upon hearing this, the faces of the Drew family turned pale.

“Caleb Mamet!” Boyd Drew clenched his teeth.

“What, is Mr. Drew angry and embarrassed?” Xaviera Evans sneered.

At this moment, Boyd Drew couldn’t help but want to cover Xaviera’s mouth. He even doubted why he ever felt attracted to this woman, even going against the Evans family for her.

He thought that he could move Xaviera with sincerity, and have her leave Caleb to be with him. As long as Xaviera agreed to divorce, he was willing to marry her despite all their past issues. Little did he know that all of this was wishful thinking on his part, and that Xaviera’s mind was already filled with thoughts of Caleb’s well-being. Why should he even bother!

Boyd Drew had known that Xaviera was not easily provoked, but he didn’t expect her to be so sharp-tongued, with every word piercing like a knife.

But Mrs. Mamet was still not satisfied and continued her tirade: “Mr. Drew, have you looked in the mirror? Your hypocritical expression makes me want to vomit!”

“I really don’t understand why you Drew family members are so ordinary and yet so confident. You committed a crime, and yet you want Caleb to bow down, why? Just because you have thick skins?”

“What do you think?”

As Xaviera’s words fell, Yigol Mamet seamlessly picked up: “Exactly! If you commit a mistake, you should either go to jail or pay compensation. But you Drew family, you don’t want to pay, nor go to jail, and even say my brother is unforgivable. You really know how to twist the truth!”

The upper echelons of the Drew Corporation glanced at Boyd Drew subtly, as they began to doubt whether the heir they followed truly had the ability to lead them.

Earlier, Boyd Drew had spent a significant amount of money to purchase land for a resort. However, not long after, a tomb was discovered underground, causing the Drew Corporation to lose a billion dollars. Now, due to the perfume packaging issue, the Drew Corporation had suffered another huge loss.

Could it be that Boyd Drew was a spy sent by the enemy?

Since taking over the Drew Corporation, he had not only failed to achieve anything but had also incurred losses of over a hundred billion dollars. The Drew Corporation was already struggling, and if this continued, how long could it survive?

Sir Drew noticed the gazes of those around him, his expression distorted with fear and anger, his aged eyes filled with terror and rage. His body trembled as if he would faint at any moment.

He suppressed the anger in his heart; he absolutely couldn’t have a public confrontation with Caleb. Although he couldn’t use Caleb for his own purposes, he couldn’t afford to have Caleb as an enemy either.

Right now, all he could do was to apply pressure on Caleb through their blood relationship, so Sir Drew had to endure.

Sir Drew gave a look to one of the top executives, who immediately understood and nervously spoke: “Mr. Caleb Mamet, how about this: Drew Corporation sold a total of 800,000 bottles of perfume during the presale. We promise to sell only these 800,000 bottles, with the total revenue of about 900 million dollars. We are willing to compensate you at twice the price, as long as you don’t pursue Drew Corporation’s responsibility.”

Sir Drew’s eyes were downcast, his fists clenched tightly.

Fury! Resentment!@@novelbin@@

He never thought that after spending a lifetime in the business world, he would end up losing to his own grandson.

The 900 million dollars in revenue was the total sales price of all the perfume bottles sold. Yet, they still had to deduct costs for advertising, research and development, and materials. In the end, their net profit was only about 200 million dollars.

However, they now had to compensate Caleb 1.8 billion dollars. In total, the Drew Corporation not only didn’t earn a cent after two months of work but also lost 2.5 billion dollars.

Who could accept such a result?

Sir Drew couldn’t just stand by and watch the Drew Corporation go bankrupt. He not only had to compensate Caleb with 1.8 billion dollars but also had to ask Caleb to accept the money, immediately withdraw the lawsuit, and never mention it again.

Up to this point in his life, Sir Drew had never experienced such humiliation. He knew he had been outmaneuvered by Caleb, but he dared not confront Caleb head-on. He had no choice but to willingly offer up the 1.8 billion dollars.

Extreme humiliation…

Boyd Drew’s expression was dark, his mouth filled with a thick taste of blood. He even felt as if he was going to faint. At this moment, he finally understood what it felt like to be under Caleb’s foot.
