Part 31

The status between Antony and Claire was strictly that of a boss and subordinate. The girl wasn't part of the PR team that needed to clarify issues he had created for the public. However, Antony personally wanted to emphasize to her that he and Anastasia had no relationship to avoid any misunderstandings between them. But the fact that Flavia was involved and Claire's reaction to his relationship with Anastasia hit him harder than he expected.Why was Antony being so cruel, not considering Flavia's feelings when Claire had pointed this out just last weekend? What kind of man was he? What kind of father was he?"If there's nothing else to discuss, I'll take my leave, Sir," Claire's words snapped Antony out of his thoughts. He looked at her and reflexively nodded his head.The room fell silent as Claire walked back to her cubicle. All eyes were clearly on her, their gazes filled with curiosity."What did he call you into his office for?" Bella was the first to voice her question, speaki

Part 32

The car had just entered the parking area behind Antony's parents' house, and as he stepped out, he noticed Flavia sitting with Abigail and another teenage girl he didn't recognize. The three girls seemed engrossed in conversation but paused as soon as they saw Antony."Good afternoon, girls," Antony tried to sound as friendly as possible."Good afternoon, Uncle," Abigail and the other girl replied."You're home early this afternoon," Abigail commented, a remark that felt like a jab to Antony's ears. He had always hidden behind the excuse of "working late" to avoid his daughter."My workload wasn't too heavy today," Antony answered honestly.There was no way he could tell them that he had initially intended to use the girls as an excuse to spend more time with Claire, which unfortunately he couldn't do since Claire had plans with another man. Even if Claire didn't have plans with Yudhis, Antony doubted she would want to go home with him, especially since she had her own car and had sh

Part 33

Abigail rested her chin on the bar table, her eyes watching her aunt as she prepared dinner for them."Don't you get a headache from just watching me this whole time? Why don't you grab a knife and help me prepare the food?" Claire spoke without taking her eyes off the meal she was making."I'm your guest. Everywhere else, guests get served food, not asked to help make it," Abigail responded casually.Claire could only shake her head at her niece's reply. If she weren't her niece, Claire might have already hit Abigail's mouth with a spatula for her cheeky attitude.Claire turned around and placed the steaming stir-fry on the table. Then she grabbed another plate, which she filled with fried chicken that she had drained earlier. She set the plate of chicken on the same table and then turned back to get the chili sauce."Aunty, what's Flavia's dad like at the office?" Abigail asked, biting into her fried chicken."Why do you ask?" Claire responded, smothering her chicken with sauce."I'

Abigail cheered, clapped her hands, and pinched Claire's cheek. "You're so smart! That intelligence must've come from me."Claire rolled her eyes, then flicked water from her hands onto Abigail's face. Startled, Abigail jumped back, wiping her wet face. "What are you doing?" she shrieked, running away as Claire laughed."Clearing your head so you stop saying weird things," Claire replied, annoyed."I'm not saying weird things. I'm talking after thinking it through carefully.""Thinking about what?""I've been thinking about the pros and cons for you if you marry Uncle Antony. And I'm praying that I'll benefit a lot from your marriage," Abigail answered honestly.Claire rolled her eyes and crossed her arms, staring directly at her niece. "So, after all that thinking, what are the pros and cons you've come up with?""The pro is that I'd get a super rich sister, and that's a guarantee for my future. I'd be able to eat good food, go shopping a lot, and especially buy the latest comic book

Part 35

The next day, Claire was still upset by Abigail's statement about becoming Flavia's mother. As a result, she glared at Antony every time she saw him. Bella, noticing the change in her friend's demeanor, was too afraid to ask what was wrong for fear of getting caught in the crossfire of Claire's anger. Yes, Claire was that intimidating when she was mad.Meanwhile, Abigail felt sorry for her friend when she told her the truth, as Flavia's expression immediately turned sad.Abigail and Flavia were sitting in the living room of Flavia's home when they heard the front door open, revealing an elderly couple entering and greeting them."Granny! Grandpa!" Flavia exclaimed, immediately jumping up and running to greet her grandparents. She embraced the middle-aged couple with great enthusiasm, relieved to see them after several days apart. "Why are you back so early?" she asked, surprised. It hadn't even been two weeks since they had left, but here they were."i couldn't stand being away becaus

Part 36

Claire's department was buzzing with excitement due to the announcement that one of their coworkers would be getting married this weekend. "Does that mean there will be a bachelor party?" asked a man from their division."Not at all; the timing is too tight," replied Chand, the main character of the group. "I'm sorry. But as a substitute for the bachelor party, I'll treat all of you tomorrow before I head back to my city." His promise earned cheers from his colleagues."What's going on here?" Shelly, who had just returned from a meeting outside the office with their big boss, looked at her team members in turn."For our beloved Ms. Spencer, I would like to present an invitation." Chand approached his superior dramatically."An invitation? An invitation to what?" Shelly exclaimed, taking the silver invitation in surprise, her smile quickly spreading across her face. "Oh my God, did someone finally take the bait?" she teased, eliciting laughter from her coworkers."This is for you, Sir.

"Are you crazy if you really went to a spa all the way in Thailand? Are you a sultan's child?" Bella commented right after the phone call ended.Claire just laughed. The truth was, they weren't at a spa or getting any treatments at all; they were on their way out of Kansas to attend Chand's wedding, which would take place the next day."I just wanted to throw her off," Claire replied flatly."Are you really fighting with your younger twin?" Bella asked, curious.Once again, Claire shrugged, making Bella shake her head. Bella couldn't force Claire to share if the girl didn't want to. So, she chose to change the subject."Must be nice to be Chan. He chose to get married on a pretty date," she commented while flipping over the invitation card in her hand.Claire, still focused on driving, raised an eyebrow at her coworker."Are you short on vitamin O? What's pretty about that date? It's not even unique," she commented flatly. She turned on the turn signal and took a right. They were alre

"What are you doing here?" Claire asked, her tone lacking warmth."Vacation," Abigail replied casually, with Flavia nodding enthusiastically beside her."With who?" Claire inquired again."With Uncle," Flavia answered.For some reason, hearing the word "Uncle" made Claire feel a momentary sense of relief. She knew Flavia meant Altezza, her boss, whom she and Chand had known for quite some time. So, he was here too? It made sense; Altezza was well-known among his employees, so it wasn't surprising to see him at such an important event."Where is your uncle?" Claire began scanning the area for the tall, handsome man of Italian-American descent."He's putting the bags in the room," Flavia replied.Claire nodded just as the groom approached. "Do you know them?" he asked, glancing at the two teenage girls who were not twins but were always together."Yeah. She's my niece," Claire answered briefly, making Chand furrow his brow."You're cousins with Sir Altezza and Sir Antony too?" he asked,

Part 39

Claire glanced between Abigail and Bella. She had just put on her knee-length short-sleeved pajamas, and with a frustrated click of her tongue, she headed into the bathroom with her clothes.In less than five minutes, Claire had changed into the jeans she planned to wear home the next day and a short-sleeved shirt. She hadn't brought a jacket, so if she ended up cold later—since it turned out the city they were visiting had low temperatures—she would blame Abigail.Grabbing her wallet and phone, Claire followed Abigail and Bella, who seemed even more excited.Abigail led them to the parking lot, where three bodyguards were already standing beside a white luxury SUV. Who else but her father and two uncles?Altezza waved, and Claire smiled back at him."Chand gave me some locations worth visiting. Since we might not have time tomorrow, how about we go out tonight?" Altezza suggested casually.Claire simply nodded in response. She intended to get into her own car, but Altezza politely as

Part 40

They really went back to the inn. Gian parked his car in a different spot because the original one had been taken by another vehicle. One by one, the group got out, murmuring their thanks.Claire and Bella returned to their room. Claire didn't care where Abigail was going to sleep because, clearly, it was the responsibility of the ones who brought her to fully accommodate her."What's wrong with you? Why have you looked upset since earlier?" Bella asked shortly after their room door closed."Nothing," Claire replied flatly. She took off her t-shirt and jeans, replacing them with her sleepwear. Bella did the same."Who is it that you don't like? From what I know, you're close with Sir Altezza. Sir Antony's child gets along well with Abigail, so I thought your relationship with Sir Antony would be fine too. So, who is it you don't like? Gian? He may seem carefree and look like a playboy, but so far, I've seen him act politely."Instead of answering Bella's comment, Claire shot her frien
