Chapter 241 How Could You?

“Dream on, Claire!” With that thought, Javier pinned Claire’s hands above her head, rendering her defenseless as he kissed her collarbones. There were moments when he sucked on the skin, making Claire feel a little sore and prickly. He continued until his lips arrived before her chest.Claire wanted to fight back, but she didn’t have enough strength to rival him. Thus, she lay helplessly there and didn’t know how to react to the unfamiliar sensation.Javier wasn’t drunk. Although he had drank a little during dinner, his tolerance for alcohol was high enough to keep his mind clear. One could only describe his actions as giving in to his sexual desires. Nevertheless, Javier consciously knew what he was doing and what he was about to do. He knew it wasn’t right to get intimate, but his moral judgment couldn’t help collapsing under Claire’s earlier teasing because he had been abstinent for so long. Surrendering to his primal desires, he stripped off Claire’s clothes until not even a thread

Chapter 242 Openly Displaying Their Affection

Javier was still in a good mood, so he sat on the bed for a little longer, finding that the sheets still smelled of Claire. The more he inhaled her sweet scent, the more he didn’t want to get up. He gazed confusedly at the bathroom, thinking, “I don’t want to admit it, but I have to—I’ve fallen for Claire, or at least, my body has.”He gradually picked up his clothes from the ground and wore them before returning to his room to prepare for the day.On the other hand, Claire had been dawdling in the bathroom. She waited until there were no more sounds or indications of Javier’s presence outside before sighing in relief. Once she reentered her room, she saw the messy blanket and her top on the ground. Even her sheets had shifted out of place on the mattress. All those elements proved that she had indeed had sex with Javier. Sighing deeply, Claire calmed herself and focused on the present. It was almost time to head to the company, meaning there wasn’t much time to dwell on the issue. Lik

Chapter 243 Beyond My Control

Eyes widening at the handsome man before her, Claire wanted to slap herself to see if she was dreaming. Otherwise, why else would Javier behave so out of character? He had always been aloof and distant, but now? He was simply a monster to her. Nevertheless, Claire was busy thinking about another thing. She wondered, “Did I really ask him to kiss me?”“You—I—Oh, whatever! That’s all in the past. Why must you keep bringing it up?” she muttered, simultaneously avoiding Javier’s playful stares.Arching a brow in amusement, Javier chuckled. “Does that mean you’re not planning to acknowledge what we did?”Claire’s cheeks heated up all at once while memories of her actively kissing him back appeared in her mind, leaving her baffled. “Oh, just forget it! I’m busy. Bye.” She dodged the question, sprinted out of the car, and ran for the commercial building where she had agreed to meet with the talk show directors. Javier retracted his gaze while shifting in his seat after watching Claire leave

Chapter 244 Your Efforts

Since the wrongful claims about Carlyle’s scandal had gotten dispelled, there was no doubt that the public would pity him and pay more attention to his work. It wouldn’t surprise Claire if Carlyle’s popularity grew. Soon enough, the scandal would no longer affect his life. Those were enough to make Claire grin, and she secretly praised herself for doing the right thing.Seeing Carlyle and Claire interacting with each other with ease, the former’s manager merrily chimed in, “You’re amazing, Ms. Weiss. I’ve also heard about Thomas’ steadily growing fame. One can’t ignore your efforts as his manager.”“I’m not that great,” replied an awkwardly chuckling Claire. “To be fair, Thomas is a natural star. Anyone would have brought him to where he is now as long as they are willing.”The manager agreed that Thomas was talented, so he responded, “Don’t worry, Ms. Weiss! Most of us, managers, know that you value Thomas a lot, and we recognize his worth too. We’ll do our best to spread the word ab

Chapter 245 Miss Me Already?

Startled, Shawn instantly realized that Javier was actually angry and immediately shut his mouth.Although he had never been the cause of Javier’s anger before, he had witnessed how frightening Javier could be when he lost his temper, so he didn’t dare antagonize him right now.Hence, he smiled unctuously and said nothing more but didn’t take his eyes off Javier’s neck.Bothered by Shawn’s staring, which would be unbearable to most people too, Javier’s expression darkened, and he coldly said, “Leave if there isn’t anything else. I don’t have time for you. I have to attend a meeting shortly.”The way Javier spoke clearly indicated that he had a meeting soon, leaving Shawn with no choice but to awkwardly rub his nose and let out a bitter chuckle. “Alright, alright, I’m leaving.”He did as he said he would, but his eyes were still trained on the mark on Javier’s neck, and an indecipherable look flashed across them.Once he got in the car, he recalled how Javier didn’t confirm nor de

Chapter 246 Unbelievable

It was clear they had come prepared as the car windows were all tinted black. No one would notice Claire, no matter how desperately she struggled.Feeling herself begin to panic, she quickly forced herself to calm down. The feeling of a hand clamping tightly down on her mouth elicited a sudden wave of disgust in her.She bit down hard on the hand, and the person released his grip with a pained cry.“Help!”Someone slapped her fiercely just as she was about to continue crying for help.“Keep quiet, you bitch!” One of the thugs, Bones, fiercely threatened her.It was her only chance, so naturally, she wouldn’t comply. She ignored the pain and struggled fervently, pounding and kicking the car door.“Help! Help me!” she yelled.Annoyed by her actions, Bones said to the others, “This bitch is so noisy. What should we do?”A man in the front seat, who was presumably their leader, wordlessly took out a handkerchief and held it out behind him.“Put her to sleep. She could ruin everyt

Chapter 247 Take Good Care

The car was speeding as it traveled further away from the city before finally stopping in front of an abandoned factory.The men in the car all had somber expressions. They were on the city’s outskirts, and no one was around as it was late in the evening.They alighted from the car, looked around shadily, and then carried an unconscious Claire out of the car and into the factory once they had confirmed that the coast was clear.Other people were waiting inside the dimly lit factory, and chairs had been placed around.A man’s eyes lit up with vicious intent upon noticing Claire’s arrival.“I’ve finally got you, you bitch. Tie her up over there so she doesn’t escape when she wakes up,” he ordered.The thugs swiftly did as instructed, placing Claire on the ground and then tying her up with rope. They made sure the bindings were secure before reporting back.“All done, Boss. Is there anything else?” the leader of the thugs, Stan, asked respectfully.“Nothing for now.” The man shook

Chapter 248 Immense Pain

Javier was alone in his office, absentmindedly staring out the window at the view.His office was on the highest floor of the tallest building in the city, so he was able to oversee the entire city as he stood before a window wall.At least, that was what it felt like at a glance.He had the best of everything the city had to offer—the best resources, the highest quality of supplies, and the sharpest executioners.In this world, he was the one who had earned the most right to be proud and should not be underestimated.However, at that moment, he felt utterly helpless and powerless.Claire’s current whereabouts were unknown, and the rationality and levelheadedness he took the most pride in were almost gone.He kept contemplating what he would do if something were to happen to her.Ollie was still so young. Was he going to lose his mother at an age where he was still so naïve and so cute?As for him and their relationship…Javier forced himself to clear his head at the thought

Chapter 249 You Almost Ended Me

Claire turned and looked apprehensively at the door. Her heart was pounding loudly in her chest as the sound of the footsteps grew closer.Someone was probably coming to check on her. With that thought in mind, she began glancing around for a place to hide when she spotted a knife on the table. Her gaze froze on the knife as alarm bells went off in her head.Who were the people outside this room, and what kind of grudge did they have against her that they had prepared a knife?She didn’t have much time to think about this and picked up the knife before wedging a plank against the door.She knew the door was probably her only way out, but right now, she didn’t have a choice. She had to buy herself some time.Claire was drenched in sweat by the time she had properly wedged the door shut.She was extremely anxious.A person seemed to be pacing outside the door for quite some time, and she vaguely heard him curse under his breath.She gripped the knife, feeling as though her heart

Chapter 250 A Death Wish

Mike gave a signal to the thugs. Stan’s expression immediately turned fierce, and he began approaching Claire.Refusing to accept her fate, Claire held the knife out before her. “I’m warning you, don’t come any closer!” Her voice quivered slightly as she looked directly at him.Stan’s expression instantly changed to one of caution. “I advise you to behave, missy. You’re holding a dangerous thing in your hand. You might hurt yourself if you’re not careful.”He then continued walking toward her.Terrified, she immediately raised the knife higher and pointed it at him.“Stay back, I’m warning you! There’s still no guarantee which of us will be the one getting hurt.”Her voice was unsteady from fear, but she still pretended to be composed as she threatened the man before her.Mike was surprised as he didn’t expect her to pull such a move, but it wasn’t long before he looked contemptuously at her. “You’ve got spirit, bitch. I like that,” he said as he laughed evilly.He deliberately
