Chapter - [ 92 ]

[ Claire ]

“Claire, what’s bothering you? I have been observing you since you came back home but I didn’t ask you back then as Travis was with us. You told me that the meeting went well. Did something happen at office?” Tristan’s gentle voice forced me to tear my eyes from the draft of some pending reports that I was reading.

I looked at his side, he was sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting keenly for my answer. I took off my reading glasses and shut my laptop.

“The deal is sealed, only the legal formalities are yet to be done.” I answered his first question but swallowed my rest of the words because I didn’t want Tristan to dwell into my problems.

A smile spread on his lips and he grabbed my hand, “I am happy for you, Claire and I feel really proud to see how bravely you are facing every challenge. Just remember I am always here for you whenever you need me.” He said and kissed my palm.

I felt peace at heart listening to his words.

“I know you are always there for me. Thanks, Tris
