Chapter 762 They Are a Team

Author: Autumn Fell
Claire looked at the phone and was in a dilemma. She knew there wasn’t any hope left on Athena’s side, so what should she do next?

A hundred possibilities flashed through Claire’s mind. In the end, she couldn’t make up her mind. However, she believed that justice would always prevail over evil. She couldn’t do anything excessive to those evil developers, right?

However, the situation wasn’t as simple as Claire had thought. While Claire was thinking of a plan, a piece of sad news came. The workers had found out that Athena decided to push off this case. Instantly, they were in despair and lost all confidence.

Claire knew how chaotic it must be right now, but she couldn’t figure out what to do and was overwhelmed. For the whole morning, Claire felt breathless, and she had a feeling that something bad would happen. She forced herself to cheer up and quickly thought of a plan.

At the start, Claire only decided to help them out of pity. Now, she felt it was her duty to help out these w

    "I don’t care who you are. However, you’re a man with responsibility. If you jump down, you’ll get nothing good out of it. Only if you live can you have a chance to change your fate. Mr. Lucas and I, as well as everyone in the Marquez group, will make sure all of you get the justice you deserve!"The guy on top of the building seemed to calm down. Claire quickly said, "Please believe me. I will pay for your child’s medical expenses first. I will also make sure your money will be returned to you. You only have one life. Please come down."The worker was much calmer and seemed to see hope. Still, he was in doubt. "Really?""Yes. Mr. Lucas is here to make sure it will happen. Please believe us." Claire pulled Brian over and shouted. At this moment, she knew it would be the most convincing to use Brian because he was the manager. The worker on top seemed to have grabbed the last straw and knelt down crying. Finally, the crowd saw that he had no intention of jumping and quickly went to

    However, Claire could understand. It would be exhausting if Aveya had to meet everyone when they came to her door. So, she sighed and continued to talk to the receptionist. "Miss, could you please tell Ms. Hudson that a lady called Claire Weiss wants to meet her? Please."The receptionist looked at her in doubt and was reluctant to do as she said, but she still picked up the phone and called Aveya's office."You're Claire Weiss?" Suddenly someone spoke behind Claire, which gave her a shock.Claire looked back and saw a woman that she didn't recognize. The woman was elegant and charming. "You are?" Claire tentatively asked."You're Claire Weiss." The woman didn't answer her. Instead, she continued to ask Claire and stared at her. Claire frowned and was slightly displeased with her reaction. She nodded. "Yes. I'm Claire Weiss."After hearing Claire's answer, the woman had a weird expression. Then, she extended her hand and shook Claire's hand while looking at her. It turned out

    Then, she chuckled and said, "It seems like Javier really never mentioned me. But come to think of it, the time you and Javier had known each other is shorter than when I and Javier met. As for our relationship …""What do you want to say?" Claire felt irritated, and her intuition told her that Aveya wouldn’t say something pleasant, and she didn’t bother to listen.It was out of Claire’s expectations that so many unnecessary matters would be exposed after finding her. Should she be mad at Javier or herself? This idea only irritated her, and she said, "That’s enough, Ms. Hudson. I was too forward regarding this matter. I thought you would be compassionate since we’re all humans. It seems I have misjudged you."Then, Claire chuckled, and there was ridicule in her gaze. "Sorry for disturbing you, Ms. Hudson. I’ll leave first. Goodbye." After that, Claire left and didn’t say anything else. Behind her, Aveya quietly sat on the sofa and watched Claire leave. She wasn’t mad at the way Cl

    However, Patty didn’t know that when it came to love, the more one tried to explain, the more it would seem suspicious. It was because Patty never said so much, which meant she was trying to conceal something. Her words only make it more conspicuous.Claire felt even more upset and felt as if a sour feeling had swept through her whole body. Her face was pale as she took a deep breath. She calmed herself down before speaking so her voice wouldn’t tremble. Then, she casually asked Patty, "They knew each other since they were kids?"She wanted to know whether Aveya was speaking the truth or just trying to piss her off.Patty’s expression was odd, and she didn’t know what to say. In the end, she bit the bullet and told Claire the truth. "I forgot when she and Sir first met each other, but it was long ago."Then, Patty seemed to want to continue but remained silent in the end. She quietly sat there and finally couldn’t stand the depressing atmosphere and said, "Madam, it’s late. You sho

    It wasn’t easy for Javier and Claire to come to where they were today. Henry really did not want any bad things to happen between them. At the thought of that, he couldn’t help but glance at Javier. He was already resting with his eyes closed. Henry decided not to disturb him and left. Actually, Javier wasn’t asleep and was thinking about Claire as well as other small matters. After knowing she had gone to see Aveya, he felt annoyed. He felt like a child who had done something wrong but didn’t know what he had done. Therefore, he felt uncomfortable.Javier thought he should’ve protected Claire, and he didn’t want anyone to touch her, not even Aveya. He could imagine that Claire must have been overthinking after meeting her and was jealous. Perhaps she was pouting unhappily and felt aggrieved.At this moment, Javier had an urge to return to the country and find Claire. He wanted to tell her that there was nothing between him and Aveya. He didn’t want her to misunderstand at all. U

    Charles looked at his watch before saying to Claire. "Well, you came at the wrong time. I’m at home during this time.""You’re at home? Aren't these your working hours?" Claire was shocked. Charles laughed, "What? It’s my company. Do I need to follow traditional working hours? I can come and go whenever I want as long as I’m happy.""Got it." Claire knew that Charles wasn’t in the company and didn’t want to say much, so she ended the call after that. On the other side, Charles looked at his phone in a trance, thinking that Claire was really different. He deliberately told Claire he was at home to see if she would really come to find him. If Javier found out, wouldn’t it be interesting? At the thought of that, Charles was excited.Claire didn’t know how bored Charles felt after she left. Now, he'd found an interesting companion again. When Clare walked out of the office, she was in a dilemma. If she went to Charles' company tomorrow, she was afraid she would lose the opportunity

    Charles looked away and didn't answer her directly. Instead, he asked, "I can help you, but shouldn't you give me something in return? After all, I don't feel happy about helping Javier in vain. You should know he's been making my life horrible these days."As Charles was speaking, he showed a pitiful expression. Looking at him, Claire could feel that he wouldn't help her. Still, she forced herself to be calm and said, "So, in order to ensure you guys will get along well, I need your help. Those workers are really pitiful, and they've been exploited by the developers."When Claire was done, she looked at Charles expectantly while Charles felt disappointed by her answer. He didn't know what he was expecting from her. "We will never get along when you're between us." Charles seemed to be irritated when he said that. He was an easygoing person, but now he clenched his fists and looked at Claire, who was surprised."So, Claire, do you understand now?""I don't," Claire said and looke

    At this moment, Charles' room was filled with smoke. He felt that after meeting Claire, he smoked more frequently. Even though he used to smoke in the past, he was never this addicted to it. He laughed at the thought of that and felt he really was going crazy. He was still in disbelief that he'd actually said such a thing. It was out of his character. However, he had to admit that he finally couldn't control it when he saw how Claire was asking for his help to help Javier. In the end, he told her how he felt. As for when he started to have feelings for her, he wasn't sure. It seemed his love for her would last for an eternity. Charles laughed at himself for thinking about such a cheesy line.At some point, he had turned into the person he used to scoff at. It was so strange that Charles was surprised at himself. Then, he laughed and continued smoking. He tried to force himself to forget Claire. But he suddenly remembered why she had come to him.He was reluctant but took out his

    Hattie looked extremely sincere in her pleading. However, when Sofia did not answer or even look at her, she began to lose confidence. Sofia's face was impassive. "Hattie, I've known you since you were a baby, but I can't help you with this. Please leave." She did not want to discuss the other stuff with her yet.However, Hattie was obstinate. She looked at her with tears in her eyes. "Aunt Sofia, please, please help me. I know it's not much trouble for you, but it can save our entire family. You've always been so kind to me. I promise that the Snyder family will repay you for your kindness!"Hearing this, Sofia felt uncomfortable. She raised her head and gazed at her coldly. "In this case, Hattie, I'll tell you why I won't help you," she said impatiently. "Do you really not know what you've done? I won't say it, but I know exactly what you've done to Ollie. You deserve everything that's happening to you now."Hattie widened her eyes, partly in shock and partly in disbelief when she h

    Javier paused outside the door and waited until Claire left before giving his subordinates a look. They understood perfectly and grabbed Chantelle at once.As Javier had ordered, they were to send this woman abroad as far away as possible and leave her to fend for herself.Outside the hotel, Claire looked up at the sky blankly. She felt like a huge burden had been taken off her shoulders; for the first time in a long time, she felt relieved of all the hurt that she had suffered five years ago. Turning back, she told Javier, "Thank you, Javier, for allowing me to face my fears. I feel so relieved now."Javier's expression fell when he heard her thank him. He tapped her on the nose fondly in exasperation. "What are you talking about? Of course, I won't let those who hurt you get off so easily. They have to pay for what they have done."Claire was touched to see him so protective of her. A surge of warmness spread in her chest as she gazed at him fondly. "I'm lucky to have you, Javier."T

    That was all Armand could think of.In just a few minutes, Chantelle admitted to everything she had done to Claire over the past few years.From drugging Claire out of jealousy and getting a stranger to assault her to getting Liam to banish her abroad, she admitted to everything. Claire knew some of them, but not all; only now did she know the extent of her crimes.When she was finished, everyone in the room sported conflicting expressions. Liam looked especially hurt and remorseful. It turned out that his younger daughter had always been evil, and he had wrongfully blamed Claire for all these years.Armand, on the other hand, didn't know how to feel about all this. He glanced at Claire and Javier. He felt that he really didn't deserve Claire, after all he had done. He had thought Chantelle to be kind and naive and had trusted her blindly to the point that he almost married her.Thank goodness the wedding didn't happen. Even so, he had lost Claire thanks to this. It made him regret eve

    If Chantelle told Claire the truth about what happened that night, then there would be nothing stopping her from having a happily-ever-after with Javier.Back then, driven by jealousy, she had drugged Claire and put her in Javier's bed without their consent. She had planned all of this out herself meticulously. She had gotten Armand to catch Claire in the act so that he would call off the engagement and be with her instead. Liam banished Claire abroad to fend for herself. However, if she had known that the random stranger she had arranged to assault Claire was Javier, she never would've done it.Even so, it was a perfect plan worthy of a blockbuster film. Claire and Javier never found out the truth, nor did they know that Ollie was actually Javier's son.It took them two years of skirting around each other only to find out that they were meant to be in the first place. Now that the truth was out, Claire would not settle for prison as a punishment for the cause of all her suffering. Sh

    After a lot of persuasion, Claire and Sofia finally managed to get Ollie to agree to stay in the hospital for another three days.Of course, three days weren't enough. Sofia and Pedro tried everything they could to convince Ollie to stay in the hospital for as long as possible.However, Ollie was smart enough to see through their ruse. He felt guilty when he saw them trying to cajole him into staying, so one day, after another attempt, he spoke up hesitantly, "Grandma, Grandpa, I'm glad that you're trying to keep me happy, and I'm touched that you're concerned about me, but I've been in the hospital for too long and it's making me sad. I promise that I'll listen to the doctor even when I'm at home, okay?" Under his bright, clear gaze, Sofia's protests died in her throat, leaving only exasperation and wordless sorrow.Ollie was too mature for his age. How could they not love him?Therefore, Ollie got his wish and was discharged three days later. In order to take care of Ollie, Sofia an

    Hearing this, Javier narrowed his eyes. He felt like he was on the verge of grasping something, but the feeling passed too quickly for him to register it. Softening his tone, he said, "There's no need to be scared, Ollie. We're all right here with you. We'll protect you no matter what happens. Can you tell me what you remembered?"Ollie might have regained his memories from before he'd been drugged.Buoyed by the encouragement, Ollie thought hard for a moment and said with a frown, "I … I remember a lady beating me. She locked me up and didn't let me eat anything while saying bad things about me and Mommy all the time. I wanted to fight back, but I was too weak. After I tried to run, she caught me and beat me up some more and forced me to eat food off the floor." Toward the end of this, Ollie burst into tears.Claire's heart hurt for him. She wanted to hug him, but Javier got there first."Tell me, Ollie, do you know her name?" Javier's voice was thick with tears as well. "Do you remem

    With that, Henry threw a glance at the rest of the employees and hurried them out. He also dragged Raina and Thomas out with him, leaving only Claire and Javier's parents to keep him company.Since it was only a small procedure for Javier, he did not get a lot of anesthesia. He tried to wriggle his body a little. Realizing what he was doing, Claire quickly helped him sit up.Javier did not look like he had just come out of surgery. Thanks to his strong physique, he looked fine.Seeing this, Sofia finally eased up a little on her worries. "How are you feeling, Javier?"Javier shook his head. "I'm fine, Mom. I just need some rest. How about Ollie? Did they say when he'll wake up?" He already knew that the surgery was a success, so he wanted to know when he would be able to see Ollie."Randy said that Ollie will be out for some time, but he's fine," Claire replied. Javier nodded. He, too, finally eased up on the tight knot of worry that was weighing his chest.Once he was sure that Javie

    The surgery took three hours.As time went by, Claire got more and more anxious. However, there was nothing she could do but wait.In the end, Sofia was the first to crack. She went up to Claire and said anxiously, "Claire, are you sure that Dr. Xenos is good? It's been three hours, why aren't they out yet? I have a bad feeling about this."Claire wasn't exactly relaxed either, but she didn't show it. She gathered her thoughts and comforted Sofia. "Everything will be fine, Mrs. Marquez. Randy is a well-known surgeon, I'm sure he knows what he's doing. Don't worry." She wanted to reach out to comfort her, but in the end, she just sat there with an awkward expression. This was probably how their relationship would be in the foreseeable future—awkward and distant.Pedro watched their interaction with an air of knowingness. "Stop crying, Sofia," he said. "They're fine, you don't have to cry about them. Claire's still pregnant, don't upset her."Sofia was about to get angry about his admoni

    At that, Javier narrowed his eyes dangerously.The Weiss family wasn't in a stable condition right now, so it wouldn't be hard for him to take revenge on Claire's behalf. Now that he knew the truth of what had happened, he had to find a way to punish the perpetrators.The news that Ollie was Javier's biological son quickly spread, especially after Sofia held a party in celebration. In fact, it made headlines the day before Ollie's scheduled surgery.Javier wasn't surprised about it. He had been looking for an opportunity to announce it to the public so that there wouldn't be unsightly rumors that would affect Claire. Claire, on the other hand, felt a little uncomfortable about the announcement. After all, she had always been a private person; she didn't want anyone to disturb her peaceful life.After a while, though, she got used to it.The most important contributor to this was that it benefited Ollie. From now on, he wasn't a fatherless child anymore. He could tell anyone who would l
