Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband

Chapter 921: Chapter 921: Banquet Interview

Cory Hughes’ face darkened, a flicker of fear in his eyes. His health was deteriorating rapidly, and without the help of a miracle doctor, he might suffer a sudden attack someday.

“Zora, I heard that Mr. Caleb Mamet is also looking for a descendant of a miracle doctor. If you become his woman, you’ll quickly find a miracle doctor. And with Mr. Mamet’s backing, the doctor won’t refuse to treat us,” he said.

Zora Hughes nodded shyly, answering, “Grandpa, I’ve got it. I’ll perform well tomorrow.”

“At tomorrow’s banquet, the Mamet Corporation will definitely invite reporters. Then, in front of everyone, you’ll announce that you’re the one engaged to Mr. Caleb Mamet, and the position of Mrs. Mamet should have been yours. Even if you can’t make Xaviera Evans and Caleb Mamet divorce, at least you can put some pressure on them and tie them down to you,” Cory Hughes advised.

…

The following day.

The Mamet Corporation’s annual banquet was always live-streamed, and reporters from various platforms flocked to the venue early to wait.

“Mr. Mamet only accepts interviews at this time of the year! Have you all thought about your questions? He will definitely bring Mrs. Mamet to attend this time, right?”

“Of course! There are two seats at the interview table. Mr. Mamet will definitely accept the interview with Mrs. Mamet. We’re well prepared with our questions, we have to seize this opportunity!”

“It looks like someone’s coming!” Someone exclaimed, and everyone rushed over with their gear, but it wasn’t Mrs. Mamet and Mr. Mamet who arrived. Instead, it was a young, beautiful woman and two elderly people.

Just as reporters were about to ask who she was, the woman gently introduced, “Hello, reporters. My name is Zora Hughes, and these are my grandparents.”

Zora Hughes?

People suddenly realized that the recent online news sensation was the engagement dispute between Zora Hughes and Xaviera Evans. Now that Zora was attending the banquet, who knew what sparks would fly when the two rivals met.

At that moment, Caleb Mamet got out of the car, and Sean Price, along with some bodyguards, came forward to welcome him. “Mr. Mamet.”

Xaviera Evans peeked out from the car, “So many reporters!”

Sean Price replied, “Yes, Mr. Mamet only accepts interviews at this time each year, so reporters have come for exclusive news.”

As Xaviera was about to get out of the car, Steve Price hurried over, “Mr. Mamet, there’s a document that needs your attention. Sorry to take a few minutes of your time.”

Caleb Mamet turned to Xaviera and whispered, “Wait for me. I’ll be right back.”

When facing Xaviera, the usually icy and spine-chilling Caleb Mamet was always so gentle and tender. The executives of the Mamet Corporation were all stunned and took a long time to comprehend that the man before them was actually their CEO.

Xaviera nodded with a smile, “Work comes first. You go ahead.”

Caleb Mamet went with Steve Price to handle the issue. The tenderness in his eyes vanished, replaced by indifference and authority, restoring the image of the Mamet Corporation’s decision maker who dominated the business world.

On the other side, reporters were still conducting interviews, “Miss Hughes, everyone knows that Mr. Mamet would bring Mrs. Mamet to the banquet, but why are you here too? Aren’t you two…?”

Upon hearing this, Xaviera quickly turned her head and saw a group of reporters surrounding a few people, like flies buzzing around an egg. Upon closer inspection, it was Zora Hughes being interviewed by the door! The interview seats originally reserved for Xaviera and Caleb Mamet were occupied by Zora, implying she didn’t come to be interviewed, but to claim her sovereignty.

At that time, Zora had been patiently answering reporters’ questions, gently responding to everything except those regarding Xaviera.

“Miss Hughes, can you respond to the online rumors? We heard that Mrs. Mamet stole your engagement. Is this true or just gossip?”

As soon as the question was asked, the room went silent. Everyone was curious about the matter, but no one dared to ask outright. They only skirted around the topic, hoping to get useful information. Yet Zora remained noncommittal. Now that someone had finally posed the question, everyone stared at Zora with anticipation.

Zora hesitated for a few seconds before giving a helpless smile, “Since everyone knows already, there’s no point in hiding it. Yes, it’s true.”

Reporters immediately became frenzied, pressing in with questions, “So Miss Hughes, you’re actually the one engaged to Mr. Mamet. If it wasn’t for her being a step ahead, you would be Mrs. Mamet now, right?”
