Chapter 41 Tell Your Lover

CLAIRENo doubt what Eva did caught everyone’s attention. In an instant, everyone—from customers to employees—looked over at us. Perfect. Now we’re the center of attention without me having to lift a finger. Why do I think this is a good thing? Because I can embarrass Eva without having to start it myself. I can teach her that if you dare to act, you must dare to take responsibility.I looked at the checks scattered on the floor. I kicked aside the one covering my foot with my other shoe.“I could even buy everything in this boutique, including you!” Eva pointed a finger at my face.I just smiled sweetly as I stepped on the check near me. “I thought you’d throw money at me. No cash, huh? Well, guess the rumors about Charles going bankrupt are true.”“What? I’ve never heard those rumors. Don’t talk nonsense! Just tell me your price!” Eva’s voice grew louder as her anger flared up. She picked up all the checks and clenched them into a fist. She then stood up again and tapped them aga

CLAIRE“Oh my God! Are you serious? I heard you right, didn’t I?”Matthew’s smile widened. This time he even shook his head. “I’m not lying, Claire. Everything’s settled. And you’ll have your rights back. You can be happy with whoever you want after this.”I had no idea how to process this good news, so all I could do was jump up and throw my arms around Matthew’s neck. Meanwhile, Matthew wrapped both his arms around my waist, making sure I wouldn’t fall. “Your suffering with Charles will soon be over, Claire,” he whispered softly in my ear. That moved me deeply. Honestly, I’m so happy because I finally no longer have to lower my self-respect for a man who can’t appreciate me. And what still surprises me to this very moment is that all of this happened because of Matthew’s help! The man I ignored for the sake of my soon-to-be ex-husband. That’s why, as a way of showing my appreciation, despite the agreement that I would marry him, I gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. “Thank you

CLAIRE“Hey, Claire! I’m here to buy you.”Shhh, here she is again. Who else but Eva? Even without looking, I already knew whose voice was behind me. “Oh, sorry—I mean, I’m here to buy your design.” She placed the check right in front of my face. “See, Charles gives me anything I want. I don’t know why it’s different with you.”The boutique was packed right now. And Eva seemed intentional to come during a rush hour. Because she did the same thing yesterday.That’s why I didn’t snap at her. I chose to take a deep breath first, then face Eva. I turned slowly with a smile I’d carefully crafted. I leaned in close so only she could hear me. “Maybe because you’re for sale. Just like I said yesterday.”“I’m sorry, but if that’s true, I don’t care anymore. What matters to me is… that I can buy you for my business.” She looked me up and down. “It’s so much fun having you under my thumb.”I pointed my hand at the 3 o’clock position. “Please give this to the staff over there for payment.

CLAIRE“How did you know?” Eva’s voice trembled. I bit back my smile. I knew even more than that. I did some digging into Eva’s background after I returned home from my miscarriage treatment. The reason was that I didn’t believe she was just Charles’s best friend.Especially since, during the time Charles and I were together, I never knew Eva existed. So I was really curious to find out everything about her. That’s when I discovered the fact that Eva was the daughter of a murderer. Fifteen years ago, Eva’s father, a wealthy man, founded a new real estate company. The company was a huge success. But sadly, that wealth wasn’t gained in a legitimate way. He acquired it through fraud and by murdering his business partner, who had co-founded the company with him. Consequently, all the assets were seized by him and Margot’s family. There wasn’t much news about it. In fact, there was almost none. And I stumbled upon it by accident. At the time, I was digging deep online until I finally
