บททั้งหมดของ Widowed Billionaire Looking For Love: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

"We apologize for coming here to trouble you." Brianna started the conversation. "My husband and I were about to leave to attend the wedding of one of our relatives. My husband's cousin is very ill at the moment, and is getting his youngest daughter married at the same time. But our granddaughter Flavia doesn't want to come with us." Brianna paused to let Julie understand where she was going with this. "As Flavia might have told you. She's an only child, and we only have one son, and he lives separately from us. So if we leave Flavia home alone, we feel anxious. Even though we have a housekeeper we can trust, but still, as a parent I feel uneasy." Julie nodded her head in agreement. "So if you don't mind, I would like to ask for your approval for Abigail to accompany my granddaughter in our home." She asked at the end of the sentence."Yes, I can understand that." Abigail's grandmother replied softly. "That's fine with me. But I apologize in advance, it's not that I don't trust the ma

Fifteen minutes later, Claire had finished her work and shut down her computer just as the sound of footsteps could be heard approaching from behind her back.Claire turned her head and saw Shelly smiling at her. "Overtime at the end too?" The near middle-aged woman teased.Claire shrugged. "Do I have any choice but to work late into the night like this? I'm just an employee, if I refuse my boss's orders I'll be fired. And I don't want that to happen." She replied carelessly."Good girl." Shelly replied as she patted Claire's shoulder. "Then, I'll go first." She said and Claire just nodded.The sound of the CPU machine's fan now dominated the quiet room along with the sound of Shelly's footsteps getting further away. Unconsciously, the silence made Claire shudder in horror. It turned out to be creepy to be alone in a silent room.Honestly, during her time at Coskun Company, this was the first time Claire worked late into the night. Claire is a disciplined and punctual person, so she l

The little restaurant was filled with many customers. Claire chose a square-shaped seat next to the window, allowing Abigail to sit in the corner so that the girl could not get in and out freely. Antony did the same to Flavia so that he ended up sitting directly opposite Claire.Claire handed the menu to Antony while she looked at the menu together with Abigail. It was obvious that Antony had never eaten at a little restaurant like this. While he was used to cooking and homemade-cooked meals made by his mother or the family's chosen chef, he's used to eating at fancy restaurants or his family's hotel restaurants. If it's urgent, Antony prefers to buy take away or delivery order. Antony does not like to eat food that he does not know the hygiene of.But out of respect for Claire and seeing how enthusiastic Flavia was, Antony refrained from pulling them all out of the place and taking them to a better restaurant."The food here is very hygienic, Sir. I made sure of it myself. Their kitc

Antony immediately frowned at the girl's question, but before he could ask, Claire spoke up again."It's not that I don't want to help. As I told you before. I'm not very close to Flavia. I'm afraid that instead of helping you get closer, I'll end up widening the gap between you. If you ask Sir Altezza for help, he can understand your characteristics and perhaps find a more appropriate solution."'Because I also want to approach you at the same time.' Antony replied in his head. 'Or are you actually able to read my intentions and this is your subtle form of rejection?' He asked again silently.Indeed, if you think about it with common sense, Antony's request to Claire doesn't make sense and Claire's advice is much more on point. But Antony is just that ruthless and impatient. Apart from wanting to regain Flavia's trust, Antony also wants to get Claire at the same time.And Claire's character was exactly what Antony had expected. She is not like most women who would use his request as

“How about lunch with me?” Abigail coaxed on Friday morning just before the girl's parents' driver picked her up to take her to school. “Ask your driver to take you to my office. I don't want to pick you up from school.” Claire replied. “Okay.” Abigail replied briefly and then their routine began. “We've been waiting for you in the lobby. When are you coming down?” Abigail's voice came from Claire's cell phone. “We?” Claire asked a little surprised. She didn't remember her niece saying she was inviting someone else to lunch this morning. But Claire could guess who her niece had brought. “Yes, me and Flavia.” Abigail replied as Claire had expected. “Alright. Wait a moment.” Claire replied as she rolled her eyes. “Is there a problem?” Asked Bella who shifted her chair closer to Claire's desk. “Abigail.” Claire said as she took her purse from inside her bag. “Your mom still hasn't returned?” Asked Bella curiously. Claire shrugged her shoulders with a scowling expression. “She wa
