“Claire, I'm sorry that I came late to make them hurt you like this.” Alex brought Claire to sit on an empty chair that was still near the hotel.

Alex felt guilty looking at Claire's hair that was still wet from being splashed by Grace.

Alex's hand gently rubbed his wife's hand which had been firmly restrained by security.

"It's okay. Thank you for helping me. But you really believe that I didn't steal, right?"

Alex smiled a little, nodding his head. "Of course. My wife is a good woman. I trust you more than I trust myself."

Claire returned the smile when Alex's finger lifted a strand of her long hair and tucked it behind her ear.

"But how can you have that much money? Sorry, you're just a construction worker and you haven't been working for long. I don't think it's possible for you to accumulate that much money from your salary," Claire asked, her eyebrows furrowed as she looked at Alex.

Meanwhile, the one being stared at was now stunned into silence. Alex was at a loss as to what to

    "Claire, I apologize to you. I was actually the one who took the diamond bracelet from that woman's bag, then put it in your skirt pocket to humiliate you. Please forgive me!" that's what Alice said in the video recording.Smiling broadly, Grace immediately saved the video, then slapped Alice very hard across the face.“I did what you told me to do, why are you still slapping me?” asked Alice, protesting while holding her own cheeks.Her eyes stared intently at Grace.“It's payback for you daring to accuse Claire.”A second slap landed on Alice's cheek. “That's for your impudence in taking my bracelet!”Grace capped off her bullying by pouring a cup of coffee water on Alice's face until her face, hair and shirt front were wet and dirty.“Now I consider everything even, Alice. I hope next time you'll think before bothering Claire. Or you'll be forcibly kicked out of this hotel!” Grace said with a lopsided smile, then she hooked her bag on her arm and walked away leaving Alice stunned.

    “I didn't see you when I woke up, so I looked for you here,” Claire replied.Vincent stood up and smiled awkwardly at Claire's probing gaze.“Hi, Miss Claire. How are you?”“Mr. Vincent, you're in Australia too? It's good to see you. But, why didn't Alex tell me that his boss is also in the same country as us?”Instead of answering Vincent's greeting, Claire asked a question that made both men's bodies stiffen.Alex lightly ruffled his hair, then rubbed the back of his neck.It seemed like Claire's suspicions would grow even more after seeing his company with Vincent.“Actually, I just arrived in Australia yesterday, and I'm also staying at the same hotel as you guys,” Vincent said, trying to package his lie to make Claire believe him.“Is that so? By the way, Mr. Vincent. I thank you for the free vacation to Australia. Again and again, my husband and I are indebted to you.” “You're welcome. Have a wonderful honeymoon,” Vincent smiled back. “Please excuse me. I have some business to

    “You're going out? Why didn't you invite me?” Claire asked Alex with a pouty face.After having dinner together, Alex suddenly said that he had to go out and would leave Claire alone at the hotel.Claire's lips immediately pursed. This was because Alex had never left her alone at the hotel at night.“Just for a little while, Claire. I promise I'll be back soon.”“But where are you going?”“I'm going to meet my friend. He happens to be in Australia and asked me to meet him outside the hotel. The weather outside isn't great, so it's best if you don't come along. I'm afraid you'll get sick. You understand that, right?” Alex's hand rubbed his wife's flushed cheeks.Although her face showed a disappointed look, Claire finally nodded her head.“Okay, off you go. But don't forget to come back as soon as possible. I'll be very lonely at the hotel.”“Sure, I'll definitely go home as soon as possible. But you're really okay, right?”Claire shook her head.“Try smiling first to make me believe i

    “Alice must have been confused looking for Mr. Knight. Go ahead and search all you want, Alice! Until Mr. Knight himself reveals his identity, you will never meet Mr. Knight,” Vincent thought while playing with the ballpoint pen he was holding.“Miss, have you found your husband yet?” the security asked Alice, as she just stood still and stared around.“Not yet. My husband is not here.” Alice replied.“Who is the husband she's referring to? All the guests are already present in this meeting room. Who are you looking for?” asked one of the company officials who was annoyed at Alice for her impudence.“Miss, is your husband really one of the company officials attending this meeting or are you just lying?” security was getting annoyed and felt played.“Sorry, I think I entered the wrong room. I just remembered that my husband is not holding a meeting at this hotel. Sorry for interrupting your meeting. Please continue again. Excuse me!” afraid of being caught lying, Alice bowed, then move

    “If you like it, I'll buy it later.”Claire quickly shook her head. “No, you won't. You don't need to waste money on a perfume. I actually always like your scent no matter what it is.”Alex smiled when Claire hugged him again. She returned the hug with a warm embrace.Suddenly the ringing sound of Alex's cell phone interrupted their intimacy. Alex excused himself briefly to pick up a call from Vincent.“Hello? What's up, Vincent?”“Mr. Alex, seriously, I just got word from the office that someone was caught on a hidden camera trying to plant a bomb near your office.”“What?! Who is it?”“An assistant manager at Golden Era. He started working about a month ago and today he tried to get into the CEO's office. But he was caught. And he confessed that he was the one who spread the news about you coming to Australia. He knows your true identity, sir.” Vincent explained.Hearing that, Alex's blood boiled. His hand that was holding the cell phone, now turned to clutching it.“What do we do n

    Since returning from her honeymoon with Alex, Claire has not taken the time to visit her mother at home.Therefore, today she deliberately came alone to her mother's house while bringing a fruit parcel for her mother.However, Claire was surprised to see Alice who had just come out of her mother's house.“Alice! Why are you here? What are you doing to my mom?!” said Claire with a suspicious look.“I'm just visiting my step sister's mother. What's wrong with that?”“Lies! I'm sure you must have come to my mom with bad intentions. Didn't you?”Folding her hands in front of her chest, Alice then shrugged her shoulders. “You're always getting on my nerves. Suit yourself. I'm in a hurry. Bye!” Alice left with a grin.It made Claire's suspicion even more intense.Feeling worried, Claire immediately went inside her mother's house and approached her with a worried face.“Mama. I saw Alice come here earlier. Did she hurt you?” she placed the fruit parcel on the small table, and then Claire exa

    This afternoon Claire just came out of the bathroom in her blue pajamas with a mickey mouse pattern.Her lips held a smile as she looked at Alex who was standing in front of the mirror brushing his hair.“Why are you looking at me like that?” Alex asked Claire's reflection in the mirror. Because Claire was standing behind Alex.“My husband is very handsome. But I think you should shave your hair a little to make you look much cooler.” Claire suggested. Her hands were folded together in front of her chest.“Really? So, you don't think my current hair looks cool?”Claire shook her head. “It's not like that. Your hair is already good, it just needs a little sprucing up.”“Then give me a suggestion, what should I cut my hair into?” asked Alex, still combing her hair that was a bit wet from washing it.Claire came over, standing next to Alex and their eyes both looked into the mirror.Now Claire's hands moved to smooth Alex's hair, which was short. But a little longer than before.“How wou

    Tonight, Golden Era threw an open party at the 'Velvet Star' hotel. Everyone was allowed to attend as long as the guest quota was still available. Although the party was themed as a charity event, behind it, Mr. Knight planned to announce his true identity in front of everyone, including introducing Claire as Mrs. Knight. As an employee of Golden Era, Claire naturally attended. While descending the stairs, Claire checked her bag again and made sure her cell phone was not left behind. A beautiful dress that she bought from Aurora boutique was now wrapped around her slender body. Claire looked beautiful with a flower-shaped bun that made her slender neck exposed.“Alex, are you done? We have to leave immediately! The party will start in a minute.” Claire shouted a little so that her voice could be heard by Alex, who was also coming with her to the party. The man was still inside their room and was getting ready. Meanwhile, Claire waited for him downstairs.“Yes, dear. I'm ready.

    Alex grasped Claire's hand tightly. "She just worked with Tristan. Tristan is already in jail. Now it's Alice and her mother's turn to rot in prison. They seemed very happy after Alice signed the letter transferring the ownership of my company. Our plan worked. So happy, they didn't suspect that it was just a fake letter to trap them," Alex said, then hugged Sandra's body from the side while giving her arm a stroke.Before this, Claire had listened to many explanations from Alex. About Alex who had never touched the fake Claire during the time the real Claire disappeared from his life.Claire was relieved that her husband hadn't spent a single night with another woman. Likewise, Alex is happy that his original Claire has returned.Even though Alex had yet to reunite Claire with their two children.“Just arrest her now!” Alex ordered the two policemen standing in front of him.“Yes, sir.”The policemen nodded and hurri

    “Honey, I'm home!” Alice stepped into the house carrying a lot of papper bags filled with the luxurious things she had just bought.She even ignored Alex's children who were eagerly approaching her. Valen walked quickly over to Alice to show her the results of her drawing at school that got a 100.Until the girl pouted and sat on the sofa hugging her drawing book and watching Alice unpacking."You're finally home. I've been waiting for you." Alex came down the stairs still wearing his work suit.Alice turned around with a smile. "Look dear! I bought some nice shirts for you earlier. Oh yes, today I bought more jewelry and branded bags for my collection. Actually, there are many more purchases placed in the trunk. But they're being taken away by the waiters. Do you think I'd look good with this bag?" Alice said and took one of the Gucci brand bags and showed it to Alex."Good. You match the bag. You didn't buy any toys or stuff for the k

    Claire was startled, looking quickly at Tristan. Then she quickly shook her head. "No, it's not. My name is not Wilona. I'm not his girlfriend either. He lied. My name is Clai-"“Wilona!” snapped Tristan with a tightened jaw. His intonation was full of emphasis, which surprised Claire.Claire recalled Tristan's threat to kill her biological mother if she dared to confront him at the airport.“Can we see your boyfriend's face?” the policeman asked again.“What for? Or let us see his passport.”"What's your purpose? We're in a hurry to fly to Australia. You can prevent us from leaving. Besides, there's no requirement that we show you our passports at the airport," Tristan firmly refused.His arms tightened around Claire from the side.Claire's heart began to fret.On the other hand, she felt worried about her mother. However, when else could she escape with this golden opportunity?"Very

    Claire brushed him off, then spat in Tristan's face, making him jump in surprise as he closed his eyes.Tristan's right hand was clenched tightly on the steering wheel. It wasn't that he wanted to punch Claire in return, but he was annoyed that she hadn't conquered him yet."Just watch! I'll report you to the police!""Keep your plans to yourself. The police won't help you either. They won't believe you if you claim to have been kidnapped and claim to be Mrs. Knight. Because the fact is, everyone knows that Mrs. Knight is still by Alex's side."Claire was stunned by Tristan's words. “So it's true, there's a woman claiming to be me and she's staying with Alex?”Tristan replied with a lopsided smile.“That's your plan, right, Tristan?”"Yes, dear. It was all I could do not to lose you," Tristan replied, grinning.Claire's heart felt like it was being broken into pieces. It was devastating to think of her h

    "Lately, Claire has been shopping for fancy clothes and bags. I don't forbid it, but this is very strange. Usually Claire doesn't care about how expensive the bags and clothes she wears are. She's never been crazy about luxury goods. I don't know why I feel that Claire's character is changing day by day," Alex muttered, scratching his forehead that wasn't itchy.Rubbing his face, Alex exhaled softly.Then a knock on the door distracted him.“Come in!”The door creaked open. Vincent came in with a slow exhale, his expression one of weariness."Sorry, Mr. Knight. There was a bit of a commotion on the seventh floor," Vincent said, informing him."What's the commotion? Why not have security take care of it? Why did you come to my office? Did you think I wasn't busy?!" Alex scowled."I apologize again. The thing is, this commotion was created by Mrs. Knight."“Claire?!” Alex chuckled at that.What was

    "Don't cry! I believe you," Alex said, softening his voice.Alice seized the moment to take things further.Her hands slowly moved down Alex's broad chest under the brown pajamas. Then Alice's fingers were about to unbutton Alex's pajamas one by one.The top three buttons were undone. Alice's eyes widened with pleasure at the sight of the firm chest on which she would rest her head after sex.However, Alice's reverie was interrupted when Alex suddenly grabbed both her hands and pulled them away from her body."Why Alex? Why don't you want me to touch you?" Alice asked disappointedly."Don't do that yet, Claire. I'm not feeling very good tonight. Next time," Alex said as he touched Alice's pouting cheeks.“But...” Alice was getting bolder and bolder with the buttons of Alex's shirt.But the naughty hand movement was immediately restrained by Alex. "Sorry, dear. I can't yet. Now go to bed first," Alex concluded as she

    Alex and his family had just returned from a vacation in Paris.There were some oddities about his wife while they were enjoying their vacation.One of them was his wife's complete disregard for Valen when the boy was pensive alone in their hotel room.Yes! Valen was mostly pensive in the hotel. While his wife was busy playing with her cell phone and checking her groceries.Alex was astonished. Usually his wife was the least likely to let Valen or their youngest son be pensive alone, let alone with a sad face."You can finally sleep in your room again, Valen. Are you happy?" Alex walked into her daughter's room.Tonight Valen had changed into her favorite hellokitty print pajamas.Alex had also dressed up in brown striped pajamas with short sleeves."Yes, Dad. I'm glad to be home again." Valen replied, smiling with his toothless teeth.Alex smiled broadly, sitting on the edge of the bed as he gently rubbed Valen's arm.

    "I've been in this house for quite some time. I haven't even met my children and husband yet. You must have seen the news wrong. Alex and I have never taken a vacation to Paris with our child," Claire said, shaking her head slowly.Hearing Claire's confession, Lenny was shocked.Claire said she's been in this house for a long time? Then, who is the woman with Alex right now?"I was kidnapped. I was in Tristan's house for almost a month. Tristan is a man obsessed with me, he locked me up, forbid me to see my family. Help me, Lenny, I want to see my husband. By now Alex and our two children must be looking for me. They're probably worried about me." Both of Claire's hands held Lenny's.Claire's words this time made Lenny even more stunned. His mouth was hanging open as he could not believe Claire's statement."But Mrs. Knight. I don't think your husband and son are worried about you.""What?! How could you come to such a conclusion?" Claire lo

    With all her might, Claire tried to scream. Hoping that her husband would hear and recognize her voice.Unfortunately, Alex's car was already too far away.Claire's tears broke out. Her body suddenly went limp. If only she could make eye contact with Alex, surely he wouldn't think twice about saving her."Mr. Tristan knows you tried to run away from home. He is very angry and waiting for you. Obey us, and we won't hurt you," threatened one of the bodyguards as he instructed the driver to drive the car back to Tristan's house.Upon arriving at Tristan's residence, Claire, who was already weak, let the two bodyguards hold her hand and entered the living room.There, Claire's eyes immediately met with Tristan's eyes that were filled with anger.The man's gaze looked sharply at her, as if he wanted to pounce on her.Claire gave up, she didn't care if Tristan wanted to kill her right now.Clenching his fists firmly, Tristan walked d
