Claire left and closed the door . Erik and Emma looked at Edward with an annoyed expression .
" Edward.......is this necessary ? " asked Emma .
Edward looked at her and ignored her then started to look at the files on his desk .
" Edward , are you serious ? I really hope that you aren't.........Seriously , how can you threaten a good girl like her in such a way ?.......I don't know Claire's family condition but when I heard you say the medical treatment for her brother that confused me . No matter how cold you are , you can't behave like this . You can't threaten her with her brother's medical condition . " said Erik annoyed .
Emma was surprised to see Erik so protective of Claire . Erik was never the type to care about girls in general . The only girls he talked to were his relatives , Emma, and a few close friends to him .
" Since when have you become so supportive of her ? You have only met her two times . " said Edward staring at him in an inte
The sun started to shine and morning came . Claire was still sleeping comfortably in her bed . She had a lot of trouble waking up early in the morning . Every time, her mother Melani , would go into her room and open the curtains then spray some water on her eyes to help her get up . She did the same thing this morning too . She opened the curtains then looked at Claire who was still sleeping ." Will you wake up or do you want me to wake you up in my way ?! " said Melani with a serious tone when she saw her daughter covering her eyes with her left hand ." Whatever ! It's just water... " said Claire in a lazy way and turned over at the other side of the bed ." Today is a little different . I just bought some juice that seventy percent sale . I bought it just for you , in case you refuse to wake up in a nice way . " said Melani with a threatening smile .' If I don't get up , the queen will get mad ! Haaaa....yesterday's training was bone wrecking ! ' th
" Hey dude ! Where are you ?! " asked Nolan on the phone . " I just woke up ! The party yesterday was crazy . " said Edward with a smirk . " Oh , it seems like you enjoyed it ! I asked because I was worried . I didn't see you anymore after you left . Where did you go ?! " asked Nolan while looking at some files . " I was kidnapped by a sexy girl . She asked me to be a prisoner in her bedroom yesterday and as a gentleman , I couldn't possibly refuse . Could I ?! " said Edward with a smile . " You're right ! If you refused , it would have hurt the girl's feelings but.....was she that hot ?! " said Nolan . " Yeah ! Damn , she was both hot and very proactive..... " said Edward and while talking with Nolan on the phone he didn't look carefully at the road nor did he notice that there was a person in the road . " Oh , shit ! " said Edward when he lifted his eyes up and looked at the road he noticed the woman in front of him and tried his bes
Claire looked through the window while Edward was focused on driving . Madam Collen looked at the two of them then turned her face towards Claire . " Young girl ! What's your name ? " asked madam Collen . " My name is Claire , madam . " said Claire with a smile . " Claire ! What a beautiful name ! It means bright and clear ! You must be a bright girl . " said madam Collen with a smile . " Thank you a lot for the compliment . " said Claire with a smile . " I saw that you were holding a bag . Do you go to school ?! " said madam Collen . " Yeah ! I am in university . " said Claire . " Really ?! Good ! Young girls who study are the best . " said madam Collen . " Thank you for your praise madam Collen . " said Claire with a smile . " Little Ed ! Pull the car over here ! " said madam Collen and pointed near a boutique . " Why ?! I will send you straight at the door . " said Edward . " I will go by myse
" Great ! " said Collen with a smile and high-fived with Lina .' These two women are the only ones to whom I cannot bring myself to say no . ' thought the major with a troubled expression .After a few minutes , Claire changed her clothes and came out of the changing room . Edward took his eyes from his phone then remained surprised when he saw Claire ." What are you looking at ? " said Claire with a doubtful expression ." I am amazed by my own sense of fashion . I managed to turn an ugly duckling into a beauty . " said Edwards with a smirk looking at her from head to toe ." Narcist ! " said Claire annoyed .While she went to pay for the clothes , another saleswoman who clearly looked fascinated by him started to show him a new product . She had unbuttoned her shirt on her chest part a bit then stared at him with flirtatious expressions ." Here ! You are at least smart enough to pay by yourself . " said Edward handing her the car
" You have no call on this . " said Edward annoyed . " I guess it's not your call either . I will come to you when I need am in a difficult financial situation . " said Claire . " You have no proof . With what are you so sure you can make any accusations to me . " said Edward with an arrogant smirk . Claire laughed a little then took her phone out and showed Edward the video of him nearly crushing madam Collen with his car . " You......Give me that ! " said Edward annoyed . " No can do ! You can't even touch it . " said Claire . " How did you get that ? " asked Edward . " I have my ways too . Furthermore , there was a large audience staring at us . I can add witnesses too . " said Claire with a smirk . " You crazy monkey , I will....... " said Edward but his phone and Claire's phone both started to ring . " Hello ! " answered the two of them at the same time . " What ? I will be there right now . " said
" She is just a poor nerd girl we have at school . She is so old-fashioned . Gosh ! I soo love it when you call me baby ! " said Chloe with her eyes totally enamored with Edward . Claire stared at the two of them with a surprised expression . " Oh....a poor nerd...I am curious about your perspective miss . " said Edward with a polite tone . " A simple opinion . No need to mind it too much . " said Claire not wanting to continue talking with him or the other girls anymore . " Claire , where are you going ? " asked Chloe . " We are just taking a look around . " said Carol . " I had no idea that you could afford to wander around here . " said Chloe . " Let's just say , I worked hard during the holiday . " said Claire . Edward looked at Claire's calm smile and found it weird how she didn't take Chloe's words to heart . ' She's too headstrong for being poor . ' thought Edward . " Well....We........We really h
After the three of them joined the group , they walked towards the place where the challenge was taking place ." Welcome ! Which game do you want to play ? " said the man with a welcoming smile .Claire looked at Chloe and opened her phone ." Sign the check first . " said Claire ." Claire , aren't you being a bit too rude now ? " said Chloe ." I am simply making sure that you keep your word . I wouldn't like it if the situation were to end up with an excuse . " said Claire ." You should keep your word Claire if you want me to keep mine . " said Chloe ." I always keep my word when I say it . " said Claire and directed the phone towards herself then started to record a video ." Hello everyone ! I am Claire . Chloe challenged me to win these puffs and she will pay me a hundred thousand dollars if I make it but if I fail I will have to kiss her feet in front of the whole school . She is so generous that I do not find it in my
" Wow ! You are amazing . " said Nolan with his thumbs up at Claire ." I am glad to have impressed you . " said Claire with a smile ." You did impress us in a very unexpected way miss . Didn't she bro ? " said Nolan with a smile .Edward stared at Claire with an amazed expression . He didn't want to admit it but it was indeed impressive that she was able to find the way to throw all the thirteen cans with just one bullet .' I hate to admit it but it was impressive just like Nolan said . She is such a poor and pauper girl but her intelligence sure is to be praised . What a pity that she is a greedy person ! ' thought Edward with a smirk ." Beginner's luck........... " said Edward with a serious expression ." You realize what you are saying sounds extremely false and boring , right ? " said Claire with a smirk .Chloe was burning with anger and she had enough of it when she saw her talking with Edward and Edward paying attention to
