The sun started to shine and morning came . Claire was still sleeping comfortably in her bed . She had a lot of trouble waking up early in the morning . Every time, her mother Melani , would go into her room and open the curtains then spray some water on her eyes to help her get up . She did the same thing this morning too . She opened the curtains then looked at Claire who was still sleeping .
" Will you wake up or do you want me to wake you up in my way ?! " said Melani with a serious tone when she saw her daughter covering her eyes with her left hand .
" Whatever ! It's just water... " said Claire in a lazy way and turned over at the other side of the bed .
" Today is a little different . I just bought some juice that seventy percent sale . I bought it just for you , in case you refuse to wake up in a nice way . " said Melani with a threatening smile .
' If I don't get up , the queen will get mad ! Haaaa....yesterday's training was bone wrecking ! ' thought Claire and got up from the bed .
" My queen ! Please have mercy on your subject who has had a rough day yesterday with all that training . This subject will always remember your kindness ! " said Claire with an obedient expression .
" Fine ! I have to go with your brother and open the shop . I left your breakfast in the table . Eat it before you leave for training . " said Melani and went towards the door .
" My queen , thank you ! You are the sweetest ! I love you ! " said Claire and got up from the bed then hugged her mother .
" Alright ! Alright ! Get ready now or you'll be late ! I am going now , bye ! " said Melani with a smile then looked at her with a smile .Claire went right to the bathroom without wasting any minute .' They usually say that you can win the heart of the man you love through his stomach . In my daughter's case , the boy that will decide to go after her , has to be a good cook . Haaa....How can she be such a food lover ?! I don't get it ! ' thought Melani with a helpless smile then went out of Claire's room and headed to the flower shop with her son , Claire's brother , Rei .Claire finished washing up soon and got her clothes out of the drawer and wore them . She wore a large-sized t-shirt and black trousers then a pair of grey trainers and a grey jacket .
" As always , I look super cool ! " said Claire with a cool smile while looking at herself in the mirror .
When she opened the door , she smelled her mom's cupcakes right away and went to the kitchen . Her mom had prepared four cupcakes for her and a glass of warm milk .
' I really love my queen ! ' thought Claire while eating .
When she looked at the time she noticed that she was late and started to eat in a hurry . After finishing her breakfast in one breath , Claire went to the door , took her bag then locked the door and went out of the house .
" Aghhh ! If I am late again , the coach is gonna give me double training as punishment . I need to hurry . " said Claire with a worried expression when she saw the time on her phone .While rushing in the street to go towards her training site , Claire noticed a woman who was talking on her phone in a messy way .
' What's wrong with her ?!...She looks so stressed . Looking at her outfit she must be very rich . It seems like rich people have it tough too , not only us poor ones . I wonder what's her problem . ' thought Claire with a confused expression when seeing the rich woman walk in a messy was with her annoyed temper .
Claire had to cross at the other side of the road then noticed that the crazy-looking woman was right in front of her .
' Good ! All the crazy ones are directed towards me ! I wonder whether I have an invisible magnet that attracts troublesome people towards me . ' thought Claire and remembered her past times when she bumped into troublesome people , she always ended up helping them clear their mess .While the people were walking , pass the road . The rich woman was still on her phone speaking .
' Luckily I passed her without any problems . ' thought Claire when she stepped on the other side of the sidewalk .
" Oh no ! The light is about to turn green ! I need to hurry ! Jack , I will call you back . Keep the people on check I will be there immediately ! " said the rich woman then closed her phone and tried to pass the road .
When she passed the light already became red . Claire noticed that a car with great speed was about to bump right at that rich woman .
' What the.....?! That car will crash her ! She can't make it until she arrives at the other side of the sidewalk . ' thought Claire and looked at her then looked at the car that was coming towards her .
" Move ! " said Claire with a loud tone but she was speaking with headphones on and she couldn't listen a thing .
' She cannot hear me ! I need to hurry ! If I don't help her she will be smashed by that car . ' thought Claire with a serious expression and took her bag off .
" Can you please hold this for a second ?! Thank you ! " said Claire to a girl that was standing next to her .
The girl remained surprised to see Claire's bag in her hands .
" Move away madam ! " said Claire with a loud tone and rushed towards her .
When Claire started to run through the white cross road , the people noticed that the car was as coming towards their direction in a fast way .
Some people took their phone out while some other people looked at the scene with anxiety .
" Madam , watch out ! " said Claire with a serious tone .When the rich woman turned her head towards the car , she remained shocked and paralyzed to the point that she couldn't even move her feet . Her hands and legs were shaking while her face went pale in a second .
Before the car could crash her , Claire pulled the rich woman herself and with a swift move , lifted her in the air then placed her on the ground safely . Everyone remained surprised by her swift moves .
" You....you...saved me ?! You saved me ! Thank you ! " said the rich woman with a relieved smile although she was still in a shock state .
" You are welcome ! " said Claire with a smile .
In that moment , the car behind which was driving with a high speed stopped . When the car stopped in a rush at a pound with dirty water . The dirty water ended up on being splashed at Claire's back and especially her trousers under her butt ." Aghhh !!!! What the ?! Who ?! " said Claire with an unpleasant tone while looking at herself covered in dirty water .
The stunning Lamborghini car which was about to smash the rich woman , stopped and opened the door . From the car , a handsome young man came out . He was wearing a black jacket with a blue shirt and black trousers with white trainers .

" Hey dude ! Where are you ?! " asked Nolan on the phone . " I just woke up ! The party yesterday was crazy . " said Edward with a smirk . " Oh , it seems like you enjoyed it ! I asked because I was worried . I didn't see you anymore after you left . Where did you go ?! " asked Nolan while looking at some files . " I was kidnapped by a sexy girl . She asked me to be a prisoner in her bedroom yesterday and as a gentleman , I couldn't possibly refuse . Could I ?! " said Edward with a smile . " You're right ! If you refused , it would have hurt the girl's feelings but.....was she that hot ?! " said Nolan . " Yeah ! Damn , she was both hot and very proactive..... " said Edward and while talking with Nolan on the phone he didn't look carefully at the road nor did he notice that there was a person in the road . " Oh , shit ! " said Edward when he lifted his eyes up and looked at the road he noticed the woman in front of him and tried his bes
Claire looked through the window while Edward was focused on driving . Madam Collen looked at the two of them then turned her face towards Claire . " Young girl ! What's your name ? " asked madam Collen . " My name is Claire , madam . " said Claire with a smile . " Claire ! What a beautiful name ! It means bright and clear ! You must be a bright girl . " said madam Collen with a smile . " Thank you a lot for the compliment . " said Claire with a smile . " I saw that you were holding a bag . Do you go to school ?! " said madam Collen . " Yeah ! I am in university . " said Claire . " Really ?! Good ! Young girls who study are the best . " said madam Collen . " Thank you for your praise madam Collen . " said Claire with a smile . " Little Ed ! Pull the car over here ! " said madam Collen and pointed near a boutique . " Why ?! I will send you straight at the door . " said Edward . " I will go by myse
" Great ! " said Collen with a smile and high-fived with Lina .' These two women are the only ones to whom I cannot bring myself to say no . ' thought the major with a troubled expression .After a few minutes , Claire changed her clothes and came out of the changing room . Edward took his eyes from his phone then remained surprised when he saw Claire ." What are you looking at ? " said Claire with a doubtful expression ." I am amazed by my own sense of fashion . I managed to turn an ugly duckling into a beauty . " said Edwards with a smirk looking at her from head to toe ." Narcist ! " said Claire annoyed .While she went to pay for the clothes , another saleswoman who clearly looked fascinated by him started to show him a new product . She had unbuttoned her shirt on her chest part a bit then stared at him with flirtatious expressions ." Here ! You are at least smart enough to pay by yourself . " said Edward handing her the car
" You have no call on this . " said Edward annoyed . " I guess it's not your call either . I will come to you when I need am in a difficult financial situation . " said Claire . " You have no proof . With what are you so sure you can make any accusations to me . " said Edward with an arrogant smirk . Claire laughed a little then took her phone out and showed Edward the video of him nearly crushing madam Collen with his car . " You......Give me that ! " said Edward annoyed . " No can do ! You can't even touch it . " said Claire . " How did you get that ? " asked Edward . " I have my ways too . Furthermore , there was a large audience staring at us . I can add witnesses too . " said Claire with a smirk . " You crazy monkey , I will....... " said Edward but his phone and Claire's phone both started to ring . " Hello ! " answered the two of them at the same time . " What ? I will be there right now . " said
" She is just a poor nerd girl we have at school . She is so old-fashioned . Gosh ! I soo love it when you call me baby ! " said Chloe with her eyes totally enamored with Edward . Claire stared at the two of them with a surprised expression . " Oh....a poor nerd...I am curious about your perspective miss . " said Edward with a polite tone . " A simple opinion . No need to mind it too much . " said Claire not wanting to continue talking with him or the other girls anymore . " Claire , where are you going ? " asked Chloe . " We are just taking a look around . " said Carol . " I had no idea that you could afford to wander around here . " said Chloe . " Let's just say , I worked hard during the holiday . " said Claire . Edward looked at Claire's calm smile and found it weird how she didn't take Chloe's words to heart . ' She's too headstrong for being poor . ' thought Edward . " Well....We........We really h
After the three of them joined the group , they walked towards the place where the challenge was taking place ." Welcome ! Which game do you want to play ? " said the man with a welcoming smile .Claire looked at Chloe and opened her phone ." Sign the check first . " said Claire ." Claire , aren't you being a bit too rude now ? " said Chloe ." I am simply making sure that you keep your word . I wouldn't like it if the situation were to end up with an excuse . " said Claire ." You should keep your word Claire if you want me to keep mine . " said Chloe ." I always keep my word when I say it . " said Claire and directed the phone towards herself then started to record a video ." Hello everyone ! I am Claire . Chloe challenged me to win these puffs and she will pay me a hundred thousand dollars if I make it but if I fail I will have to kiss her feet in front of the whole school . She is so generous that I do not find it in my
" Wow ! You are amazing . " said Nolan with his thumbs up at Claire ." I am glad to have impressed you . " said Claire with a smile ." You did impress us in a very unexpected way miss . Didn't she bro ? " said Nolan with a smile .Edward stared at Claire with an amazed expression . He didn't want to admit it but it was indeed impressive that she was able to find the way to throw all the thirteen cans with just one bullet .' I hate to admit it but it was impressive just like Nolan said . She is such a poor and pauper girl but her intelligence sure is to be praised . What a pity that she is a greedy person ! ' thought Edward with a smirk ." Beginner's luck........... " said Edward with a serious expression ." You realize what you are saying sounds extremely false and boring , right ? " said Claire with a smirk .Chloe was burning with anger and she had enough of it when she saw her talking with Edward and Edward paying attention to
" It's a great opportunity . Now that you have also taken so much money from Chloe , it will be easier for you . I am really happy for you Clarie . You deserve it . Also , don't be sad about Chloe's words . She is always arrogant like that . " said Carol patting Claire's shoulder . " I am not sad . It's the truth and I can't deny it . That is the reality in which I live in . " said Claire with a forced smile . " Awwww.......you are gonna make me cry . " said Carol with her eyes tearing up . " Ha ha ha ha ! You can't continue to be such a crybaby anymore . I won't be around so you need to take care of yourself . " said Claire patting her head . " Please don't go ! I want you here . " said Carol hugging her arm . " Ha ha ha ! I need to go , especially after slapping Chloe . I can't stay here anymore or else she will make my life a living hell . " said Claire with a smile . " Claire...........did it feel good slapping her ? " said Carol w
Claire left and closed the door . Erik and Emma looked at Edward with an annoyed expression ." Edward.......is this necessary ? " asked Emma .Edward looked at her and ignored her then started to look at the files on his desk ." Edward , are you serious ? I really hope that you aren't.........Seriously , how can you threaten a good girl like her in such a way ?.......I don't know Claire's family condition but when I heard you say the medical treatment for her brother that confused me . No matter how cold you are , you can't behave like this . You can't threaten her with her brother's medical condition . " said Erik annoyed .Emma was surprised to see Erik so protective of Claire . Erik was never the type to care about girls in general . The only girls he talked to were his relatives , Emma, and a few close friends to him ." Since when have you become so supportive of her ? You have only met her two times . " said Edward staring at him in an inte
" You are the one who came here . I didn't ask you to come nor did I take you forcibly . I told you to not mess with me but you keep coming to me . Since you can't stay away from me you may as well stay within my sight......I hate it when others try to approach me in a shady way . " said Edward with a serious expression ." What ?.....What are you saying ? How can you even think that I am purposely following you ? How could I possibly come after you ? " said Claire looking at him shocked ." .....I have seen a lot of women trying to approach me . They will try every method just to get close to me . You too ! Stop playing the hard catch . " said Edward ." How can you say that ?........I will not waste my breath with you . I have no reason to be near you . The school decided that I would come here to your company . It wasn't my free will . I struggle hard to give my family a good life and to try to become someone for both of them but you.....How dare you th
Claire looked at Edward and noticed that he was very serious about what he was said . She let go of him and stepped back ." Your........special lawyer ? " said Claire confused ." .....I want you to be my special lawyer . You will not only deal with the cases of me being thrown in court but you will also be in charge of my protection . This is all that will be required from you . Since you will be working as my bodyguard you will also be my assistant . " said Edward with a smirk ." ....Instead of two jobs now I have to do three ? " said Claire with a forced smile thinking that he was joking ." I will not ask you to do any other job apart from dealing with documents related to law cases and protecting me ." You must be kidding me.....Seriously ?...... " said Claire touching her forehead in a troubled way ." I am dead serious . I was serious when I said that you are annoying but now I am even more serious . " said Edward .Claire t
" I think I misheard but.......Did you just call me old ? " said Edward with a frozen smirk ." Even your hearing isn't working well . Those are clear signs of old age . How about you go and see a doctor ? " said Claire with an innocent smile ." You have already used half of my patience crazy monkey girl . " said Edward annoyed ." .....Only half more and I will be saved from you , old man . I am doing quite well . He he he ! " said Claire with a happy tone then noticed a strange ominous aura coming from Edward ." I can't believe such a girl actually exists . The more I hear the way she talks with him , the more afraid I become of her . " whispered Erik with a terrified expression ." I totally agree with you . I am feeling my blood pressure low because of them . " whispered Ema .Edward bit his lip as he grinned . He didn't expect that she could escape from his charms but once again he was proven that he could not predict anything when it
Claire to the taxi and soon she found herself at Edward's company . When she got out of the taxi , she stared at the company then a voice from behind called her ." Claire ! " said the voice again .When Claire turned her head , she saw it was Erik ." Good morning ! " said Erik with a smile ." Morning ! " said Claire with a forced smile ." You don't look happy . " said Erik ." I am super pissed Erik . " said Claire annoyed ." Who and why ? " asked Erik ." I don't think the person who annoyed me needs an introduction . He is already very famous . " said Claire with an ironic tone ." I guess I know who this famous person is . " said Erik .Claire and Erik entered the elevator and waited to arrive at the floor where the annoying president was ." If it can make you feel better , I have got an additional coffee latte can with me . Do you want it ? " said Erik handing her the coffee latte can .She
When Claire went to her home at night they all smiled happily ." Overall , we did have a good day . " said Melani as she unbuttoned Rei's jacket ." Yeah , we sure did..... " said Claire with a forced smile .' That jerk totally ruined our day of fun . Why did we have to bump into him ?.......Not only that but we also met another weirdo....... ' thought Claire with an annoyed expression as she remembered the faces of Edward and Alonzo ." Didn't you enjoy today's outing Claire ? " asked Melani when she saw her expression ." I enjoyed it mom . I just was thinking that I could enjoy it better we didn't bump into those two people . " said Claire ." You mean mr Alonzo and Edward ?...Mr Alonzo was annoying at first but he did apologize for his mistake . He clearly didn't know about Rei's condition . " said Melani ." Whatever ! I just don't like that guy . He looks weird . " said Claire ." Weird ?.......In which weird sense ? "
" It seems like it will take some time before they get down . " said Melani looking at the train . " Mom , I would like to take a look at that store over there . It had some interesting stuff . I will be back soon . " said Claire . " .....Alright but don't be late . " said Melani . " No , I won't . " said Claire with a smile . " Okay ! " said Claire and walked ahead . " I am quite thirsty so I will go to buy something to drink . " said Edward with a polite smile then walked ahead too . Melani looked at her daughter and noticed that Edward was walking in the same direction as Claire but he was a bit away from her . ' ......Hmmmm....... ' thought Melani . " Cough.....cough....... " coughed Alonzo when he saw her staring at them but she still continued to stare at them . " Cough.........Cough........ " coughed Alonzo again . " Are you sick ? Why are you coughing so much ? " asked Melani . " I had a
" Train ticket ?......Wiat ! I need that train ticket . " said Edward ." Huh ?........You needed that train ticket ?.........I am very sorry . That girl took the last ticket of this time's ride . I can give you the same ticket for the next ride if you want . " said the worker ." When will the next ride start ? " asked Edward ." It will start after forty minutes . The train ride is the longest ride we have in the amusement park . " said the worker ." .....I got it . " said Edward then looked back at the girl who took the ticket and was going to the worker at the train ride .' I have no intention of waiting for another forty minutes just because of a simple train ride . I will just buy the ticket from her . ' thought Edward and hurried to catch up with her .Edward grabbed her by her shoulder then stopped her ." Miss , you pushed me and I couldn't get the ticket . Give me the ticket now . " said Edward .Claire looked at th
" Daddy................my dress got dirty . " said the little girl on the ground starting to cry ." Hey ! How dare you push my daughter ? " said a man grabbing Rei's little arm annoyed .Rei was scared at his sight and started to push him as he yelled . Claire and Melani rushed to his side immediately . Melani held Rei as Claire grabbed his arm and glared at him ." What do you think you are doing ? You are an adult yet you grab the arm of a child in such a rough way . Is that the way an adult should behave with children ? " said Claire with an angry tone as she glared at him forcibly .' ...…This girl...she is strong . So short yet strong.... ' thought the man with a perplexed expression .He looked behind her and saw Melani trying to ease her son . She raised her head and looked at him annoyed ." Who do you think you are to scare my son like that ? Don't you have any brain ? " said Melani ." Don't I have any brain ?!.....You
