Some of the bystanders were taken aback and gasped in shock, thinking that Claire was too bold. Although she had a powerful background, the woman she was facing also had her own connections and was not easy to mess with.More people gathered around to watch the scene, all anticipating what would happen next. At the same time, they were curious about Claire’s connections, would they be able to help her resolve this matter?After being slapped twice, the woman’s face was swollen, and her makeup was smudged. She tried to strike back.Claire did not kick her this time, but instead, she grabbed both her hands and immobilized her so she could not move an inch.“The first slap was for my son—because you said he had no manners. The second slap was for me—because you called me a slut. You brought this upon yourself, and if you make any more moves, I won't hesitate to slap you again."After speaking, Claire coldly released the woman and walked away with Ollie without looking back.The woma

As Claire made her way through the company, people came and went, and each one cheerfully greeted her. “Good morning, Ms. Claire.”She nodded and responded, “Good morning.” She continued on to Thomas’s practice room. She knocked on the door and walked in.“Claire, you’re here,” Thomas said as he stopped what he was doing and walked over to Claire.“How’s the training going?” Claire asked, seeing the sweat on Thomas’s body. It was impressive to see him working so hard early in the morning.“It’s going okay.” Thomas replied, looking down at his muscular arms and wiping off the sweat.Claire nodded and patted his arm. “You’re doing great. You’ve made a lot of progress.”Thomas blushed at her praise and scratched his head. Claire then got serious and pulled out a file from her handbag.She said, “I received a call today from the popular variety show ‘Rising Stars off the Grill’. They want to invite you to be a guest on the show. This is a great opportunity for you, Thomas. You nee

The aroma of alcohol filled the air. Claire’s eyebrows twitched at the smell of it. Memories of that night flashed through her mind, and it ignited a burning anger within her.She now strongly suspected that Morrow did it on purpose, knowing that she wouldn’t let it go easily. He deliberately humiliated her because she could not do anything to him at the moment.Claire reached out to pour the wine over Morrow’s ugly face, but at the last moment, she held back. Today was a big day for Thomas, and she could not afford to make any mistakes. Otherwise, Morrow might do something to ruin it.Claire took a deep breath and tried to sound normal. She let out a sarcastic chuckle and said, “Mr. Marquez, you know I can’t handle my liquor. I won’t be drinking.”She deliberately mentioned her inability to hold her liquor to remind him of what happened that day. However, Morrow acted as if nothing happened and said, "Claire, you played a significant role in the company's success. Let me raise a t

At the other side of the restaurant, Shawn and Leo were sipping their wine while they chatted. They looked over to Morrow’s side occasionally and could see that he was sulking.Leo got bored at the sight. He looked at Shawn and asked, “Shawn, what’s Javier doing? Why is he taking so long to go to the bathroom?”Shawn snickered, “You think he’s gone to the bathroom?”“Not really. He might not even be able to return.” Leo shook his head. He wondered in amazement, “Javier is acting so strange. What’s gotten into him?”At that thought, Leo saw through the corner of his eyes that Javier had walked out of the bathroom with a woman by his side.Leo was shocked. His eyes widened in surprise as he stared at them. He nudged Shawn and said, “Shawn, take a look, quick, there’s something big happening!”Shawn followed his gaze. He saw Javier and Claire walking out of the bathroom one after the other, and they left the restaurant directly.Instead of being shocked, Shawn understood in his hea

Hattie's face was ashen after seeing how peacefully Claire was sleeping and didn't wake up after she had been there for such a long time. Javier looked up to see Hattie's gaze fixed on the couch. He wasn't surprised and coldly said, "Put the things here, and you can leave. I have some work to deal with."In the past, Hattie would endure Javier's intentional coldness and distance from her. She would leave after putting away the soup, of course. However, something was different this time. Javier said he was busy, but Claire slept soundly on the couch. What right did Claire have to sleep in Javier's office?Hattie boldly asked, "Javier, why is she here? Aren't you going to give me an explanation?" There was no emotion in Javier's eyes. He only looked up and said, "Hattie, there's a limit to my patience. Don't try to challenge it."Hearing how he deliberately lowered his voice made Hattie's heart ache. She wasn't a fool and understood Javier didn't want to wake Claire up. Also, she
