Chapter 251 A Taste of Despair

Claire was still shaking when she opened her eyes. Her eyes widened, and she was stunned as she took in the disturbing scene before her.The thug that had recklessly tried to grab her was holding his profusely bleeding arm with a pained expression.“Argh, it hurts! I can’t believe you cut me!”The remaining thugs were afraid to act hastily now that one of them had been injured. They all glared at Claire.Claire was scared out of her wits. The sight of blood erased whatever was left of her senses, and her hand that was holding the knife was shaking.She shakily stepped back and stammered. “I-It wasn’t intentional. He was the one who came at me. If any of you dare to do the same, I-I’ll cut you too.”Despite her fear, she forced herself to steel her nerves in order to continue facing them.The thugs looked at her apprehensively.Mike, who was behind them, was indeed intimidating, but right now, they were more afraid of the desperate woman in front of them.They were at a stalema

The thugs outside had heard Mike cry out and initially wanted to check on the situation, but Stan stopped them. “Ignore it. The boss is inside right now. You’ll be in big trouble if you disrupt him.”What he said made sense, so the other thugs didn’t enter the room. However, a few of them couldn’t help pressing their ears against the door to hear what was going on inside.Stan disapproved of their actions and gave them a warning look. “You’ve all got some guts to eavesdrop. The boss will definitely beat you all up if he finds out.”They immediately distanced themselves from the door and resumed standing guard, but their curiosity didn’t wane.Back in the room, quite some time had passed before Mike recovered from Claire’s kick.

Her head was spinning, and she almost fainted.

Mike didn’t do anything to you, so you don’t have to be afraid,” he said in a comforting tone, but it was slightly stiff due to nervousness.She blinked blankly, and it took some time for her to recover from her shock. “Is that true?” she eventually asked with uncertainty.Did nothing really happen to her?

Chapter 258 Feel Pity for Her

Patty took Ollie to the store in the afternoon to buy groceries.

Although she couldn’t fall asleep, her mind was much more relaxed. Just as she was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the door, and Claire was startled. She looked cautiously at the door, assuring herself that guards were outside, keeping her safe. Then, Claire said, “Come in.” The person outside seemed to hesitate briefly before walking over. He dared not look straight at Claire and lowered his head to whisper, “Madam, a person called Carlyle Jefferson is here to see you.

However, after some consideration, Claire said, “Let him in then.”Before she could think much about it, Carlyle had entered the

Chapter 260 Willing to Take Responsibility

Claire couldn’t help but pout. She felt extremely wronged and retorted, “It’s because you suddenly moved close, so I was startled.” Claire would unintentionally pout when she was angry. Javier’s eyes unexpectedly grew darker after seeing this scene. He chuckled, his eyes fixed on Claire’s lips. “Then, should I ask you first before I want to kiss you next time?” he asked, his voice husky.Claire was initially baffled by Javier’s words and found them incomprehensible. However, when Javier leaned in and kissed her, her eyes widened in shock, and she finally grasped his intention. So, he had wanted to kiss her?Deep in her thought, she could feel Javier slowly searching her lips. Claire felt embarrassed and quickly pushed him away.
