Chapter 91 Moved

From his haggard face and bloodshot eyes, it appeared he hadn’t gotten enough rest the night before.“Javier, why are you here?” Claire asked, surprised. Everything that occurred last night seemed to come to a halt the instant Morrow entered the scene. Claire’s face turned pale, and she couldn’t help but ask, “How…How did I get to the hospital?”“Have you forgotten?” A complicated expression flashed through his face, but it was fleeting. Claire tried to remember but had no clue. She shook her head. “I don’t.”Suddenly, she had a bad premonition and started trembling. “Could…Could it be that last night…”If Morrow had tarnished her, she would not forgive him!When he noticed the panic on her face, Javier softened his tone and reassured her, “Don’t worry. You’re fine, and nothing happened to you. You’re my legal wife. I will make sure that no harm will come to you.”Only then did Claire calm down and tentatively ask, “Did you save me last night?”She seemed to recall someone ba

Chapter 92 A Real Man

“Mommy, you’re finally awake.” When Claire opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was Ollie crying. She was distressed and quickly sat up to hold him in her arms. “Ollie, what’s the matter? Why are you crying? Mommy’s here, and I’m fine,” she quickly comforted.“Mommy, you’re finally awake. I was so scared.” Ollie leaned on Claire and looked at her with teary eyes. He looked extremely pitiful. Patty was also relieved to see that Claire was awake. She said, “Madam, it’s great that you’re awake. What happened last night?” After thinking about it, she said, “I’m sorry, Patty. I was drunk last night, but I’m fine now. Sorry to have made you worry.” As for being drugged, she didn’t want to tell anyone for now.Patty nodded and couldn’t help saying, “Young people have no control when it comes to drinking. Ollie and I were so worried at home. Please don’t drink like that again, okay?” Claire nodded vigorously. Her alcohol tolerance was terrible, and she won’t be drinking in the

Chapter 93 A Perfect Opposite

Claire realized this was not the way to go, so she soothed the photographer before going to Thomas.“Thomas, please follow me to the changing room,” Claire said, her face expressionless.Thomas was taken aback and assumed Claire would reprimand him, so he quickly stood up and apologized, “Claire, I’m sorry to disappoint you.”“Stop the nonsense and come with me.” She was not interested in hearing his apology. Claire was anxious and pulled him into the changing room. “Take off your clothes,” she said as she looked at him.Thomas was perplexed by Claire’s solemnity, but he still took them off. Claire then pushed him into the chair and called for the makeup artist. “Give him concubine makeup right now.”Her commanding demeanor did not offend the makeup artist, and she did as Claire instructed.Thomas was used to it by this point, so he obeyed Claire’s orders despite his doubts about this style.Soon, the makeup was done. After giving a satisfied nod, Claire sat down at the vanity.

Chapter 94 Same Bed

It was already ten o’clock at night when the photo shoot ended. The staff packed their belongings and left. Claire dragged Thomas back with her because she wanted to discuss their hiccup from the shoot earlier.Thomas still seemed to be awkward on their way back. His head hung low as he walked, and his ears were still a little red.Claire pouted and teased, “Hey, Thomas. How did you end up being so innocent? Tell me honestly, have you never held a girl’s hand before?”Thomas’ face flushed, and he looked at Claire, embarrassed. “Please, Claire, stop teasing me.”Claire was amused by his reaction and laughed. She only thought he was adorable. He was able to maintain his innocence despite the filthy nature of the entertainment industry. That was truly uncommon.They joked for a while, and Claire forgot what she wanted to say. Considering how late it was, she wanted to send Thomas back home. However, he wanted to go to the hospital. So Claire sent him there. Claire had planned to visi

Chapter 95 The Right Time

That was what Patty saw when she passed by Javier’s room during her usual routine of cleaning the Marquez family’s villa early in the morning—Claire and Javier sleeping on each side of the bed and cozying up between them was a contently snoozing Oliver. The sleeping family warmed Patty’s heart, and she couldn’t help smiling. She thought, “Thank goodness. I’ve been worried that these two have fallen out of love because they insisted on living apart. Fortunately, my worries were for nothing. Look at how sweet of a couple they make!”Just then, Oliver flipped to his side and woke up. He had always been more active and needed less sleep than most adults, so he was energetic early in the morning. As he gazed at his sleeping parents, he felt a happy, tingling sensation in his chest.Noticing Oliver had awoken, Patty whispered, asking him to leave the room and give his parents some privacy.Only around 9.00 am did Claire’s eyes flutter open. Her gaze gradually settled on her surroundings, and

Chapter 96 The Manager Debuts

Claire had just arrived at the office when she heard about Morrow getting released from the police station. It was only natural that updates about him spread that quickly; after all, everyone knew he had gotten arrested the night before yesterday. Claire asked around to see why the police apprehended him, to begin with, but no one knew.“Morrow knows his actions will stain the company, so he probably paid several people to keep their mouths shut. I suppose that’s good too,” she thought while sighing, “I’d rather not get caught in a scandal for working in Morrow’s company. It’s been strangely peaceful this morning. I thought Morrow would start trouble for the company, but he hasn’t done anything—but I’ll kick him the balls if he dares show up here. He’s shameless and repulsive for using such indecent schemes against me!”Suddenly, her phone rang with a call from a foreign number. She answered, asking, “Hello, Claire speaking.”“Hi, are you hiring an assistant? Would you consider me for

Chapter 97 Jealous

The comments amused Claire, who found the fans’ way of thinking adorable. She mused, “However, I’m definitely not debuting as a celebrity. My newfound popularity could boost Thomas’ fame and career, so that’s good enough. I guess I made the right choice to reveal myself.”…Javier sat in his office and dealt with his company’s affairs. His slightly raised eyebrows highlighted his stern but handsome face. There was also a frosty look in his eyes that made him seem inviolable as a god.Despite him making it clear that he didn’t wish to get disturbed, someone ran into his office without even knocking. Not many people around Javier had the galls to test Javier’s patience—except for Shawn. Upon entering the office, Shawn didn’t bother to sit; instead, he raised his phone to Javier’s face, saying, “Take a look at this, Javier. Isn’t that your wife?”Javier was so overwhelmed with work that he had no time to entertain Shawn. Without sparing the latter a glance, he snarled, “Get out.”That di

Chapter 98 The New Assistant

Some time had passed after the call ended, but Claire remained cheery as she kept picturing an embarrassed Javier. She had spent most of her days with him, so she now understood his temper better.“Javier isn’t as mean as he seems—his aloofness is what gives him a bad reputation. Maybe I’m seeing this other side of him because I’ve been spending more time alone with him,” she thought while unknowingly smiling.After lunchtime, the caller from this morning came to the office for her interview. She stood before Claire, and only then did Claire realize she was as lively and talkative as she sounded on the phone. Not to mention, the girl was also much smaller in height. Claire possessed a more elegant and chic beauty that contrasted with more delicate, petite women others often adored. Hence, she admired the girl. With an intrigued and friendly tone, she asked, “Hi, you can call me Claire. What’s your name, age, and education level?”“Nice to meet you, Claire. I’m Raina. I’m 21, and I’ve

Chapter 99 Another Plot

Claire stood there thinking for some time before recalling something and rushing to her office. Once she got back, she switched on her laptop. After clicking and typing a few things, she found information on Esret Skin. It turned out that Esret Skin’s popularity was rising rapidly, so they wanted to hire a brand ambassador to endorse them. The brand needed a representative with good looks and sizable fan support online and offline to grow its global presence. In most cases, women’s and men’s beauty companies would hire female and male ambassadors, respectively. That wasn’t the case for Esret Skin. They already had the renowned starlet, Ysobel Norris, as their ambassador but wanted a male celebrity to endorse their brand alongside her. “That’s a bold move on their part to introduce themselves into the international market.” Just then, Claire thought of something and typed on her keyboard hastily, researching more information. “Judging from the current situation, the schedules of top m

Chapter 100 Ms. Zachman

For the next two days, Claire’s post grew more popular on Twitter. It even got to the point of appearing on social media and online news headlines for several days. All that success brought Thomas some additional fame, and his fanbase grew faster than before. Although there were many positive reactions on Twitter, Esret Skin still hadn’t contacted Claire for an endorsement deal with Thomas. Alas, there was nothing more Claire could do, so she gradually lost hope.…On the third day, a meeting occurred in Esret Skin’s headquarters. Several of their domestic executive members were screening suitable brand ambassadors. Choosing the right male celebrity was also crucial for them to enter the international market, so many of Esret Skin’s directors participated in the screening.One of the directors in charge of the domestic market operation said, “I don’t think we should hire a random guy to endorse our brand. After all, we’re trying to introduce ourselves to the global market. It’s better
