Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband-Chapter 861 - : Salvation

Chapter 861: Chapter 861: Salvation

Suddenly, Xaviera Evans sobbed and said weakly, “I’ll be fine. For the sake of those kidnapped women, even if I’m terrified, I’ll cooperate with your investigation. Besides, I secretly recorded the kidnappers’ phone calls, which might help you crack the case earlier!”

“I was too scared at the time, though, so I don’t know if I recorded everything clearly.” After that, Xaviera pulled out a recorder from her pocket. Dylan Wycoff took the recorder, and his face instantly changed.

In the recording, the voices of the Swift family members could be heard, admitting to their human trafficking activities. They had already made a fortune and showed no signs of stopping.

Dylan’s lips trembled, and his face turned dark and terrifying. “Mrs. Mamet, you risked your life to make this recording, providing crucial evidence for our investigation. I thank you on behalf of all the victims.”

It turned out that Xaviera was not fearless. Instead, she was merely pretending to be calm to collect evidence. Although she was just a weak woman with no ability to fight, she was clever enough to make a recording when she was kidnapped. Not only was Xaviera beautiful, but she was also exceptional – no wonder Mr. Caleb Mamet cared so much about her.

…

...

Soon, several police cars and ambulances arrived. Xaviera couldn’t help but tear up when she saw the dozens of disheveled girls being carried out.

Who would have thought that the Swift family, which had always boasted themselves as a scholarly family, would stoop so low as to engage in such dirty and heinous deeds for money?

The girls’ cries filled the entire warehouse. Perhaps they thought they would never escape and had given up hope, but now, they were finally free. Huddled together, they wept for their narrow escape and their tragic fates.

Xaviera didn’t know how long these girls had been trapped here. The Swift family had kept them imprisoned, subjecting them to beatings and humiliation, and had failed to provide for their basic needs. The girls were barely alive.

Had her brother not discovered such sordid crimes, when would these girls have been rescued, given the Swift family’s power and methods?

The girls wept uncontrollably, as if trying to drain all their tears. Xaviera couldn’t help but cry as well.

“Miss Evans?” Eric Salt approached with a group of doctors. He signaled the others to treat the girls first, then walked up to Xaviera and spoke gently.

Xaviera sniffed, “Dr. Salt, did you know? Troy Swift, the original heir of the Swift family, was Sir Swift’s eldest son. When Troy found out about Sir Swift’s human trafficking business, he opposed him and even tried to bring justice to his own kin. But he was ultimately killed by the Swift family. Even though they share the same family name, why are they so different?”

Eric hesitated for a moment, “This is the first time I’ve seen Miss Evans so sad. Are you blaming yourself?”

Xaviera looked up in surprise.

“Your eyes are full of guilt right now. Are you thinking that if only you had found this place earlier, fewer girls would have suffered? I’m also curious why the usually gentle and weak Mrs. Mamet took such a risk this time.”

“I heard people talk about Miss Evans before. Most of it is not good. They say you are nothing but a pretty face with a bad personality. But now, after meeting you, I know that those rumors are unreliable.”

Eric always thought Xaviera was a very weak woman, so when he heard that Caleb had bullied her into losing consciousness, he blamed Caleb. Little did he know, Xaviera Mamet was not as weak as he imagined.

He glanced at Xaviera and said meaningfully, “I just want to remind you that next time you plan to embark on a dangerous mission, make sure you tell Caleb first to avoid worrying him.”

Xaviera stood there, stunned.

“Don’t be fooled by Caleb’s calm appearance now. Last night, when he found out you were going to risk your life, he was so scared that he seemed like a different person. He’s always been calm, even when his own life was threatened, I’ve never seen him flinch. But last night, when he heard you were going to that den of thieves, his eyes were full of fear. This mission may not mean much to you, but to him, he can’t bear for you to be in the slightest danger.”

“You must’ve completed many missions, with the protection of Lingo Pavilion’s elite. You wouldn’t be scared. But Caleb can’t let you put yourself in harm’s way.”

Although Eric was Caleb’s close friend, Xaviera had barely spoken with him. Surprisingly, he was now sharing intimate thoughts with her.
