To celebrate her success in joining the Golden Era Company, Claire cooked more tonight and had dinner with Alex.

"Congratulations, Claire! I'm proud of you. I knew you'd fit right in at Golden Era." Alex raised the glass of wine in front of Claire, to which Claire responded by bringing her own glass closer to make a clinking sound.

"Thank you, Alex. I really can't believe I was able to do that." Claire blinked with a wide smile.

But then his brow furrowed. "But... there are some things that make me wonder. During the interview with Golden Era, everything seemed so easy. They were very friendly. Even Mr. Knight's secretary was friendly. The interview was over in a few minutes. It surprised me and made me think... how could it be so easy?" Claire couldn't stop thinking.

In all her life, she had never had such an easy interview.

"This is because they already know your potential. Those people in the Golden Era must be able to judge which candidates are the best to join the company."

    When Claire arrived at the office, she was ushered into one of the departments and seated behind a desk with several other female employees. Claire introduced herself as the new employee in her department. However, only some people welcomed her introduction. Others looked at her sarcastically. One of the people who didn't like Claire's presence was Camila. With her hands in her lap, she walked up to Claire and dropped her coffee on Claire's design paper. "I'm sorry. My hand slipped," Camila said, putting on a guilty face, but the corners of her lips curled into a mischievous smile. Claire scowled. She knew that what Camila had done was intentional. But since Claire was a new employee, she decided not to prolong the matter. "It's okay," she replied and went back to work."What are you drawing?" with an annoyed face, Camila grabbed Claire's paper and stared at it intently. "Please give me back my paper!" Claire tried to grab it again, but Camila quickly hid it behind her back. Se

    "So you're a manager? If so, you should be more polite to your subordinates. A manager shouldn't act dirty," Claire said, holding back her irritation as her hand gripped the hot coffee cup. "The new guy is trying to advise me?" Ronald grinned. His footsteps came closer to Claire, which made her body tense even more and she slowly backed away."You are quite interesting. I can help you get promoted quickly if you are willing to keep me company for a few nights," Ronald whispered with a lascivious grin on his lips. Those dirty words ignited a fire of anger in Claire. Suddenly, she poured the hot coffee on his chest, making him scream and overheat as he waved his wet shirt."Damn woman! How dare you spill hot coffee on my shirt!" Ronald snapped loudly. His jaw clenched, his eyes narrowed and filled with anger. "Sorry, Mr. Ronald. I'm forced to tell you in such a harsh manner. Whatever you promised. Promotion, money or anything else, I have absolutely no interest in spending the night

    A taxi finally took Claire to a large shopping mall. Inside the mall was a jewelry store called "Black Rose," which Nova had suggested. Claire entered the jewelry store and looked at the many pieces of jewelry in the display case. Seeing how beautiful all the jewelry was made Claire smile. She felt confused as she tried to decide what to buy. "Sorry, miss. You can't just come in here. Please leave before I call security to remove you." Just as Claire looked around, a saleswoman with a nametag that read Nora on her chest reprimanded Claire and pulled her out of the store.Naturally, Claire was confused; why would the saleswoman kick her out when she was trying to make a purchase? "But I want to find a necklace for my mom's birthday," Claire said, refusing to leave and letting go of Nora's hand that was holding hers. "Your mom's birthday? Why don't you go to the thrift store and find her a necklace? Maybe you can find a suitable necklace for your mom there." Nora's words immediate

    Claire was just curious and silent. Meanwhile, the saleswoman looked indifferent and played with her red lacquered nails. She didn't care who Alex called. A few minutes later, the manager of the 'Black Rose' store, Leuwis, came through the door with a firm step. Seeing her boss coming, Nora, who had been busy with her nails, immediately pretended to be very busy and diligent and went to Leuwis. "Nora, what's going on?" Leuwis asked Nora with an irritated look on his face. "Mr. Leuwis, these two people came into the store to look at some jewelry. In fact, they have no money. Their presence is only disturbing the customers coming into our store. I have asked them to leave, but they insist on staying. You should call security immediately to remove them from the store. People like them might steal." PHow surprised Nora was when her complaint was met with a very hard slap from Leuwis. The slap landed on her right cheek, leaving a red mark and a sting, as well as a shocking sense of e

    "Happy birthday, Mom!" Claire exclaimed excitedly as she walked into her mother's treatment room and handed over a box containing a diamond necklace.Emma was wide-eyed at the gifts from her daughter and son-in-law. Yes! Alex had also come to the hospital to accompany Claire and surprise his mother-in-law. "Thank you, Claire, Alex. I'm very happy. You shouldn't have bothered buying gifts and cake. Just having you two around makes my birthday special," Emma said with a big smile."Mom, you should know that this necklace was actually bought when there was a big promotion for the hundredth person. And I won the promotion." Claire couldn't resist sharing her best jewelry-buying experience.Seeing the happy look on his wife's face, Alex felt proud of himself for giving her that little bit of happiness. When Claire told her the real price of the two necklaces, Emma was shocked. Especially when Emma heard that Claire had bought them at the Black Rose. "You are very lucky, Claire. I'm hes

    Afraid of getting caught, Alex was forced to nod."Why didn't you tell me? Congratulations, I'd love to hear it. I've already cooked lunch. Let's eat together."Alex complied as Claire pulled his hand and they sat down behind the dining table.Claire's face turned red when Alex looked at the food."I'm sorry, our lunch menu today is very simple. We've run out of food in the fridge. I forgot, we're supposed to go shopping once a month. I still have some money in my purse.""Keep your money, Claire. I have the money. Let's go to the supermarket and do our shopping," Alex said as he wolfed down his food and looked at Claire."But you just started work today. Oh, did your boss give you a signing bonus? Wow, he's so nice."Alex just smiled slightly at his wife's guess."Alright. Then we'll go to the supermarket," a smile appeared on Claire's face.That beautiful smile made the corners of Alex's lips curl. Claire didn't change, wearing only her sling bag, while Alex decided to stay in his c

    Noah laughed and shoved his hands into his pockets. "That useless husband finally showed his face again. Turns out you're just a handyman," Noah scoffed, his eyes fixed on the construction uniform Alex was wearing.Alice laughed softly at Alex's appearance, which she found very disgusting. Although his face was very handsome, it would be useless if he was just a construction worker."I will give you a chance to apologize to my wife. If you don't, I will have you thrown out of this mall in disgrace!""Oh, is that a threat? A worker is threatening the CEO of the Sanders Company." Noah clapped his hands."He's so shameless. How dare he try to threaten us." Alice snorted. Her arms folded across her chest.Claire was getting tired of this argument so she put her arm around Alex. "Alex, we should go home now. We don't need to deal with them.""No, Claire. It's not us who should go, it's them."Alex's words made Noah smile sarcastically. "You're really shameless? I'm calling security right no

    Alex squinted. He knew what the cashier was thinking. She probably thought that Alex was just a worker who had stolen a rich man's black card."Sir, where did you get the black card?" the cashier asked Alex."Why do you ask that? The black card is mine!"Alex's calm reply made the cashier smile sarcastically. "Really? Do you know that these black cards are only owned by the wealthiest few? Your appearance doesn't suggest that you deserve to own one," the cashier said, giving Alex a dismissive look.Alex's forehead wrinkled. "You're just a cashier, your job is to serve the customers, not meddle in matters that don't concern you," Alex said."But as a cashier in the largest supermarket in New York, I will not accept payment for stolen goods. I'm sure this black card belongs to your boss and you stole it. Confess quickly! If not, I'll call the police!"The corners of Alex's lips twitched as he heard the threat from the cashier in front of him."Go ahead and call the police! I'm not afraid

It felt like Claire wanted to take off her clothes right now and feel the touch of Alex's warm hands.Once inside the car, Alex immediately touched Claire's cheek and pulled her in so that he could kiss her lips gently.Claire enjoyed it. The influence of the drug made her sanity a little drained. Her hand unconsciously went to what was protruding under Alex's pants and caressed it.“You really can't stand it?” asked Alex, whispering in between his paused kisses.Claire's sad eyes implied resignation. Her head nodded slowly.“I can't take it anymore, Alex. Help me,” she whispered.Alex quickly took off the suit he was wearing, then threw it on the back seat.He opened his tie and shirt buttons one by one un

    “Noah. Don't do that to me! Don't you dare touch me! I don't want to! Let go of me, Noah!”“But unfortunately your body demands that I satisfy you because the medicine I mixed into your drink has already taken effect. So, you don't have to be embarrassed and hold back. I will help you fulfill your desire, Claire.”Claire's eyeballs widened. It turned out that all of this was really Noah's plan.Noah had organized everything carefully.“Come on Claire! Let's do the foreplay now. I can't wait to enjoy your beautiful body.” Noah unbuttoned his shirt one by one. Then he threw it in any direction.After that, Noah also took off his belt. While he looked at Claire who was silent. But sweat started to appear around her neck and forehead.Then Noah approached Claire again with his body almost naked.

He was very sleepy.“Why am I suddenly so sleepy?” he mumbled in wonder as he tried to widen his eyes so he wouldn't fall asleep.Eventually, Brant fell asleep in a sitting position with his head on the table.At the same time, Noah approached the table where Claire had been sitting.While Claire was busy chatting with Jenny, Noah was now pouring something into Claire's orange juice.Then his lips broke into a lopsided smile. “Tonight you must be mine, Claire. I'm sure Mr. Knight won't want you anymore after knowing I touched you,” Noah said and grinned.&

    “Alex, all this...” Claire couldn't continue her words because she was so moved.But at that moment Alex hugged her from behind and he whispered in Claire's left ear.“I decorated all of this,” Alex whispered, telling his wife that he was the one who had decorated their room to be as romantic as possible.Hearing Alex's answer, Claire raised one eyebrow.“You decorated it?”Alex nodded his head.“Yes. Do you like it, dear?” Alex asked Claire as he patted his wife's left shoulder.With her eyes glazed over, Claire then nodded her head and she still gazed fondly at the entire corner of her room.“Yes. I really, really, really like it. I didn't expect you to be so good at decorating this room. I didn't know you had a romantic side,” Claire replied.Alex laughed at his wife's words. He released his embrace and now turned Claire around and cupped his hands on her che

    Coming home from the mall, Claire was surprised to see her husband's car parked neatly in the front yard.Sure enough, her husband was home and greeted her at the doorway.“Alex? Are you home?” asked Claire, approaching Alex and pecking his right cheek.There were some groceries that Claire carried in her hand. Alex helped carry some of his wife's groceries. “I heard from Brant that you deliberately left the house without his knowledge.”Claire silently bit her lip. Alex's eyeballs glared at her sharply, making her stutter.“I just don't like-”“Don't like being watched?” guessed Alex.Claire nodded slowly.Alex let out a rough breath, then rubbed his face. “Claire, I hired Brant to have someone look after you when I'm not around. Besides, he can follow you from a distance if you feel uncomfortable.”Claire's head bowed deeply. Her hands gripped the strap of her grocery bag tightly.Her lips pursed. She had expected Alex to get angry if he found out she left without her bodyguard.“I

    “What about the thugs you sent to Graham's house? Did they do their job properly?” Alex asked Vincent over the phone. He asked in a whisper so as not to be heard by his wife who was currently getting a hair dryer from outside the room to dry her wet hair. [Everything is according to your orders, Mr. Knight. They destroyed things in Graham's house and threatened Alice and her mother. Unfortunately, Graham was not at home, so he did not receive any threats]“It doesn't matter. The important thing is that they've scared those two scheming women. I hope my warning will deter Alice and stop disturbing my household.”[Don't worry, Mr. Knight. If Alice dares to disturb your family, I will give her a heavier punishment] Vincent said like a loyal subordinate.At the same time, Claire came back into the room still with a white towel wrapped around her body.

    Meanwhile, inside the house, Alice and Nancy were laughing together in Alice's room.“You managed to sleep with Alex? You're so smart. I'm proud of you.” Nancy patted the thigh of Alice who was sitting beside her.Both of them had big smiles on their faces.Yes, Alice had just told her mother about last night's incident where she tricked Alex into sleeping with her.“Of course, mom. I'm smart because I'm mama's girl,” Alice exclaimed confidently.Nancy laughed. “But, does Alex know you set him up? If he does, I'm afraid instead of you becoming Mrs. Knight, Alex will report you to the police.”Nancy's smile vanished and was replaced with a worried look after her mind suddenly remembered that.“Don't worry. Alex did suspect that I had set him up, but the type of anesthetic I mixed into his drink was the kind that would make the person who consumed it unable to remember what had happened to that person. So, it's unlikely that Alex would have any proof that I set him up,” Alice explained.

    Returning home, Alex stopped his car in his front yard.His feet immediately stepped through the main door as he called out his wife's name.“Claire! Claire! I'm home!”Alex's call was interrupted when his eyes looked at the dining table, where there was a lot of food served there.“Claire prepared all this for me?” muttered Alex staring at the dining table, guilt creeping into his heart.“Claire!”His feet took another step, this time up the stairs, then opened the door to the room.Upon arriving at the room, Alex was surprised to see Claire who had packed her clothes into a suitcase.“Claire?! Where are you going? Why are you packing your clothes?” asked Alex, running over to his wife.His forehead wrinkled as he looked at Claire's clothes that were piled up and neatly arranged in the medium-sized suitcase.Pulling the zipper of her suitcase, Claire replied. “I'm leaving this house. I'm no longer needed here anyway, right?”“What are you saying? Who said I don't need you anymore? I
