For the first time in weeks, I drove home without feeling the usual weight pressing against my chest.That giddy feeling sparring from nowhere.

And every conversation, I tried to remember. Her tears. Her laughter. The relief in her voice when she realized she had finally been cleared.

I shook my head lightly.

Grandmother was going to enjoy hearing this and I was glad to meet her just at the living room, knitting quietly when I walked in.

I loosened my tie, walking toward her with a big smile.

  • SECRETLY MARRIED TO HER BILLIONAIRE BOSS   92. ~Klaire~

    I stared at myself one last time in the mirror. "This should be fine..."It wasn't as though I was attending a royal banquet. Just a private charity gala hosted by one of the city's influential families.Still...Mrs. Vilmorre had invited me personally. I couldn't exactly show up underdressed.Eventually , I settled on an elegant emerald-green gown that hugged my figure just enough. My hair fell in soft curls over one shoulder and I remained simple, elegant, respectful.Taking one final breath, I grabbed my clutch and headed inside the grand ballroom. The party looked too familiar… almost like the one Elise and I attended…which Lance’s grandmother hosted before her death.Lance grandmother? I had promised to refrain from calling her that until her image was very clear. Until I summoned the courage to ask Lance why that woman buried looked nothing like the woman who arranged our flash marriage.Crystal chandeliers glittered overhead. Business leaders, politicians, celebrities...Almost ev

Did you apologize?”I sighed dramatically before sitting opposite her. “I did.”Her knitting stopped. “You actually apologized?”“I said I did.”A wide smile spread across her face before she laughed to herself. “I never thought I’d live to see the day. You’ve inherited every stubborn gene in this family.” She reached across and patted my hand. “But I’m proud of you.”“I know.”She smiled and she leaned back comfortably.“Since you’v

    I had spent the last three nights arguing with myself. She'll be back at work soon. It isn't necessary. The matter is already over. Then Grandmother would call."Have you apologized?""No."Another reminder that a leader who couldn't admit his mistakes would one day stand alone.By the fourth day...I was tired of her voices in my head. Tired of remembering Klaire's face every time she insisted she was innocent.And…was I too scared to actually ask her to see me? Because why was Hale involved yet again."Is something wrong?" Hale asked over the phone."No.""Then why do you suddenly want to see her?”I didn’t respond. Instead I sent him the address. Also specifically told her it was business. Because her husband might refuse… he probably hates me.An hour later, I stood at the balcony of a quiet café. It was private and relaxing and I had chosen it because almost no one came here on weekday afternoons.When the sound of footsteps approached, something in my chest raced faster. I took

    I watched Klaire take a cab just in front of my car and exhaled, hitting the steering wheel. I hated chaos and grandmother was putting me in one again. There was no need for all of the drama. I turned the car around and headed back to Brooks' residence.And to Klaire, I had dragged Klaire out of a business meeting, given her no explanation, atched her walk away confused.And making whatever relationship we had worsen."Mr. Brooks is still inside." The housekeeper said. I nodded and walked in.Grandmother looked up first when I rounded the corner. I looked straight at my grandmother."What exactly are you doing?""Having tea." She picked up her teacup with surprising elegance.I exhaled sharply. "Why are you so determined to meet Klaire?"She studied me for a long moment. Long enough that I became uncomfortable. Then she asked quietly, "Why are you so determined to stop me?"I frowned. First off, we shouldn’t be having this conversation at my investors house. Secondly, I was too angry

    I stood outside Brooks' mansion with my arms folded, staring at the fountain in front of me. Mr. Vilmorre had practically ordered me outside.No explanation. No discussion.Just..."Wait here."I sighed. "What is wrong with that man?"First, Hale said he insisted I come to the meeting. Then he acted like my presence was an inconvenience.I began pacing slowly across the stone driveway, occasionally glancing toward the entrance.Five minutes passed. Then ten. "What is taking so long?"Was Brooks discussing something confidential? Had the meeting resumed?Or...Was Mr. Vilmorre arguing with him again?I turned toward the entrance. "He probably needs me but is too proud to call me back in…” The front door swung open.Mr. Vilmorre walked toward me with unusually long steps.His expression...was strange.He looked... flustered. I'd never seen him look flustered before."Mr. Vilmorre?"He didn't answer. Instead, he grabbed my wrist. "Come with me.""W-what?""Now."Before I could react, he was

    Brooks greeted Klaire as though she had been an expected guest all along.Only until they were done with their pleasantries that he asked for both of us to take our seats around the long oak table in the dining room. A stack of documents already lay neatly arranged."This won't take too long," Brooks said, taking the seat opposite us."I hope not," I replied evenly.He smiled and he opened the first file. "I'll be honest with you, Aleksander. I was disappointed."I nodded. “I know.""No." He shook his head. "I don't think you do." He folded his hands together. "I trusted Vilmorre Enterprise because I believed your systems were stronger than everyone else's." He looked directly at me. "Then your investor list was leaked. You can imagine what that did to my confidence."Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed Klaire lower her gaze. Her fingers tightened around the edge of the file before her.I knew she still blamed herself. Even after I'd withdrawn the case.The guilt hadn't left her.A

    The door to my office opened without a knock. Only one person in the company was annoying enough to do that.Hale. He entered carrying coffee and entirely too much enthusiasm this afternoon. "I heard. But I want to know if it's true." I didn't bother looking up from the report in my hands. Hale

    “Klaire?” Immediately the elevator stopped, Elise’s voice resounded through the quiet hallway. My eyes widened. But before I could react, Mr. Vilmorre moved.Very fast.One second I was standing in the hallway, The next I was pulled into a corner beside the office wall. My back hit the surface soft

    His smile immediately faded as Mr Hale said those words and he retracted his hand from mine.His expression was rather confusing. Was he angry? Did he not have a good relationship with his grandmother?"Grandmother?" He repeated flatly, stepping forward and completely blocking view.Before Mr Hale

    “Mrs Claire Kingston, this way please,” the tall suited man called for me. I sucked in a deep breath, murmuring a quick prayer before walking in. After crying myself to sleep yesterday, Elise had offered to help me retrieve my important documents from my cloud. I don't know how she did it but th
