Chapter 61

"Claire, I apologize to you. I was actually the one who took the diamond bracelet from that woman's bag, then put it in your skirt pocket to humiliate you. Please forgive me!" that's what Alice said in the video recording.Smiling broadly, Grace immediately saved the video, then slapped Alice very hard across the face.“I did what you told me to do, why are you still slapping me?” asked Alice, protesting while holding her own cheeks.Her eyes stared intently at Grace.“It's payback for you daring to accuse Claire.”A second slap landed on Alice's cheek. “That's for your impudence in taking my bracelet!”Grace capped off her bullying by pouring a cup of coffee water on Alice's face until her face, hair and shirt front were wet and dirty.“Now I consider everything even, Alice. I hope next time you'll think before bothering Claire. Or you'll be forcibly kicked out of this hotel!” Grace said with a lopsided smile, then she hooked her bag on her arm and walked away leaving Alice stunned.

“I didn't see you when I woke up, so I looked for you here,” Claire replied.Vincent stood up and smiled awkwardly at Claire's probing gaze.“Hi, Miss Claire. How are you?”“Mr. Vincent, you're in Australia too? It's good to see you. But, why didn't Alex tell me that his boss is also in the same country as us?”Instead of answering Vincent's greeting, Claire asked a question that made both men's bodies stiffen.Alex lightly ruffled his hair, then rubbed the back of his neck.It seemed like Claire's suspicions would grow even more after seeing his company with Vincent.“Actually, I just arrived in Australia yesterday, and I'm also staying at the same hotel as you guys,” Vincent said, trying to package his lie to make Claire believe him.“Is that so? By the way, Mr. Vincent. I thank you for the free vacation to Australia. Again and again, my husband and I are indebted to you.” “You're welcome. Have a wonderful honeymoon,” Vincent smiled back. “Please excuse me. I have some business to

“You're going out? Why didn't you invite me?” Claire asked Alex with a pouty face.After having dinner together, Alex suddenly said that he had to go out and would leave Claire alone at the hotel.Claire's lips immediately pursed. This was because Alex had never left her alone at the hotel at night.“Just for a little while, Claire. I promise I'll be back soon.”“But where are you going?”“I'm going to meet my friend. He happens to be in Australia and asked me to meet him outside the hotel. The weather outside isn't great, so it's best if you don't come along. I'm afraid you'll get sick. You understand that, right?” Alex's hand rubbed his wife's flushed cheeks.Although her face showed a disappointed look, Claire finally nodded her head.“Okay, off you go. But don't forget to come back as soon as possible. I'll be very lonely at the hotel.”“Sure, I'll definitely go home as soon as possible. But you're really okay, right?”Claire shook her head.“Try smiling first to make me believe i

“Alice must have been confused looking for Mr. Knight. Go ahead and search all you want, Alice! Until Mr. Knight himself reveals his identity, you will never meet Mr. Knight,” Vincent thought while playing with the ballpoint pen he was holding.“Miss, have you found your husband yet?” the security asked Alice, as she just stood still and stared around.“Not yet. My husband is not here.” Alice replied.“Who is the husband she's referring to? All the guests are already present in this meeting room. Who are you looking for?” asked one of the company officials who was annoyed at Alice for her impudence.“Miss, is your husband really one of the company officials attending this meeting or are you just lying?” security was getting annoyed and felt played.“Sorry, I think I entered the wrong room. I just remembered that my husband is not holding a meeting at this hotel. Sorry for interrupting your meeting. Please continue again. Excuse me!” afraid of being caught lying, Alice bowed, then move

“If you like it, I'll buy it later.”Claire quickly shook her head. “No, you won't. You don't need to waste money on a perfume. I actually always like your scent no matter what it is.”Alex smiled when Claire hugged him again. She returned the hug with a warm embrace.Suddenly the ringing sound of Alex's cell phone interrupted their intimacy. Alex excused himself briefly to pick up a call from Vincent.“Hello? What's up, Vincent?”“Mr. Alex, seriously, I just got word from the office that someone was caught on a hidden camera trying to plant a bomb near your office.”“What?! Who is it?”“An assistant manager at Golden Era. He started working about a month ago and today he tried to get into the CEO's office. But he was caught. And he confessed that he was the one who spread the news about you coming to Australia. He knows your true identity, sir.” Vincent explained.Hearing that, Alex's blood boiled. His hand that was holding the cell phone, now turned to clutching it.“What do we do n

Since returning from her honeymoon with Alex, Claire has not taken the time to visit her mother at home.Therefore, today she deliberately came alone to her mother's house while bringing a fruit parcel for her mother.However, Claire was surprised to see Alice who had just come out of her mother's house.“Alice! Why are you here? What are you doing to my mom?!” said Claire with a suspicious look.“I'm just visiting my step sister's mother. What's wrong with that?”“Lies! I'm sure you must have come to my mom with bad intentions. Didn't you?”Folding her hands in front of her chest, Alice then shrugged her shoulders. “You're always getting on my nerves. Suit yourself. I'm in a hurry. Bye!” Alice left with a grin.It made Claire's suspicion even more intense.Feeling worried, Claire immediately went inside her mother's house and approached her with a worried face.“Mama. I saw Alice come here earlier. Did she hurt you?” she placed the fruit parcel on the small table, and then Claire exa

This afternoon Claire just came out of the bathroom in her blue pajamas with a mickey mouse pattern.Her lips held a smile as she looked at Alex who was standing in front of the mirror brushing his hair.“Why are you looking at me like that?” Alex asked Claire's reflection in the mirror. Because Claire was standing behind Alex.“My husband is very handsome. But I think you should shave your hair a little to make you look much cooler.” Claire suggested. Her hands were folded together in front of her chest.“Really? So, you don't think my current hair looks cool?”Claire shook her head. “It's not like that. Your hair is already good, it just needs a little sprucing up.”“Then give me a suggestion, what should I cut my hair into?” asked Alex, still combing her hair that was a bit wet from washing it.Claire came over, standing next to Alex and their eyes both looked into the mirror.Now Claire's hands moved to smooth Alex's hair, which was short. But a little longer than before.“How wou

Chapter 68

Tonight, Golden Era threw an open party at the 'Velvet Star' hotel. Everyone was allowed to attend as long as the guest quota was still available. Although the party was themed as a charity event, behind it, Mr. Knight planned to announce his true identity in front of everyone, including introducing Claire as Mrs. Knight. As an employee of Golden Era, Claire naturally attended. While descending the stairs, Claire checked her bag again and made sure her cell phone was not left behind. A beautiful dress that she bought from Aurora boutique was now wrapped around her slender body. Claire looked beautiful with a flower-shaped bun that made her slender neck exposed.“Alex, are you done? We have to leave immediately! The party will start in a minute.” Claire shouted a little so that her voice could be heard by Alex, who was also coming with her to the party. The man was still inside their room and was getting ready. Meanwhile, Claire waited for him downstairs.“Yes, dear. I'm ready.

“Not all women are like you, Alice,” Claire replied briefly, but managed to turn Alice's face cloudy.Claire was about to leave, but Alice held back her hand.“Why are you in such a hurry? You're deliberately avoiding because you're afraid of being caught by Alex, right? If Alex knew that his wife was flirting with another man in his absence, he would be furious. Or... would Alex even be happy that he's benefiting?” “Stop that nonsense! Or I'll ….”“Will what? What can you do to me here, Claire? Are you going to slap me? Just slap me! I'm not afraid.” Deliberately, Alice tilted her face, thrusting her right cheek at Claire.Claire's eyes could see a sly smile on her half-sister's lips.Although she was very annoyed by Alice's behavior, but Claire tried to hold back her emotions in order not to embarrass Mr. Knight's party.Claire decided to ignore Alice by walking past the woman's body.However, Alice uses the moment to accuse Claire of hurting her.She deliberately nudged herself in

Nova, as the secretary of the Golden Era, was now standing in front of all the invited guests.Everyone there was paying close attention. Alice and Noah were excited when they heard Nova mention Mr. Knight.“In addition to the charity event, today Mr. Knight will introduce himself to all of us. He is the CEO of Golden Era Enterprise.” Nova said.A big smile appeared on Alice's lips.Puffing out her chest, Alice said to herself. “This is the moment I've been waiting for the most. I will soon meet Mr. Knight. Just watch! Mr. Knight's attention will only be on me. I assure you that the handsome and wealthy CEO will make me Mrs. Knight.”“I welcome Mr. Knight to the stage!” said Nova as she invited Mr. Knight to come forward.Everyone seemed to be eagerly awaiting Mr. Knight's presence.
