\u201cI\u2019ll see you off.\u201d As soon as Claire finished speaking, Arthur immediately said.<\/p>\n
Claire exclaimed in confusion. \u201cThat\u2019s not appropriate, Mr. Jarrett, you must be joking.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo. Thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n
She said as she bent down to pick up her bag from the sofa. Glancing outside, she turned to leave. \u201cI\u2019ll go look for Mateo outside; he should be able to hear me if I call his name.\u201d<\/p>\n
With that, she turned and took a step. But just as she was about to take the second, a strong hand grabbed her right wrist, stopping her in her tracks.<\/p>\n
The warmth from her wrist made Claire, who had stopped abruptly, let out an involuntary moan.<\/p>\n
Arthur\u2019s voice came at the same time. \u201cI\u2019ll take you home. It\u2019s fine. Besides, Mateo\u2019s probably asleep at this hour.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mateo, who was guarding his phone, waiting for Arthur to summon him at any moment to take Claire home, yawned repeatedly, looking sleepy.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy is it taking so long? It\u2019s been almost three hours. They sure can talk, good for them. I\u2019ll reward myself with another episode of the show. No rush, no rush,\u201d he hummed to himself.<\/p>\n
Half an hour later, after some discussion, Claire found herself getting into Arthur\u2019s car to go home. It was a sedan that looked quite ordinary but had been heavily modified.<\/p>\n
The mature and steady man in the driver\u2019s seat focused on driving, while the beautiful woman in the passenger seat was engrossed in her phone, illuminated by its faint light.<\/p>\n
Claire: [Cherise, I\u2019m going to die. Arthur\u2019s dad is taking me home. How could I possibly deserve this? It\u2019s more like I\u2019m his driver.]<\/p>\n
Claire: [I said I didn\u2019t want him to, but he insisted. He didn\u2019t even bring a bodyguard. If something happens to him, will I be a sinner for ages?]<\/p>\n
Claire: [Mom knows you\u2019re asleep, but I still have to send this to you. At least I\u2019ll have one more witness. You can testify for me that I didn\u2019t volunteer for this. Arthur\u2019s dad forced me to do it.]<\/p>\n
Below the text is a pitiful, crying emoji.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s so late, and someone is still willing to chat with you,\u201d Arthur, who was in the driver\u2019s seat, suddenly asked.<\/p>\n
Claire quickly put away her phone when she heard this and gave a dry laugh, thinking that he had caught her complaining. \u201cNo, I was sending a message to my daughter, asking if she was asleep.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt this hour, who would want to chat with me? Besides, after all these years, the only friend I have left is Darrow, and she should be asleep by now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Arthur asked, \u201cOh, Darrow, man?\u201d<\/p>\n
This sentence seemed very bland, and Claire didn\u2019t think much of it and answered directly, \u201cWoman. Darrow is my best friend. She has taken good care of Arthur and me for so many years. If it weren\u2019t for her, we would have been-\u201d<\/p>\n
As she spoke, she made a \u201csnap\u201d gesture with her head.<\/p>\n

Arthur nodded. \u201cDarrow, so it was a close friend. That\u2019s a rather misleading term. Well, it\u2019s good. We should find an opportunity to thank her.\u201d Claire agreed with this statement and nodded repeatedly.<\/p>\n

The road back was the same one they came from. To Claire, it felt just as long as the journey there, so long that by the time they reached the gate of Prosperous City Villas, she had fallen asleep, leaning against the seat.<\/p>\n
After parking the car, Arthur glanced sideways at her and didn\u2019t disturb her. He raised the corner of his lips, leaned back in his seat, and closed his eyes.<\/p>\n
Upstairs, the moment the car engine stopped, Hank woke up. He opened the curtain a little, looked at the car parked at the door downstairs, and smiled slightly.<\/p>\n
Instead of going downstairs, he got back into bed, pulled up the quilt, and said before closing his eyes, \u201cMom, Claire, please forgive my selfishness. I didn\u2019t see you, I didn\u2019t know, I was sleeping soundly.\u201d<\/p>\n
Several hours later, before dawn, there was a \u201cclick\u201d of the door closing downstairs, followed by the hurried sounds of high heels rushing up the stairs.<\/p>\n

She clicked it open, and sure enough, what was coming was coming. There were indeed quite a few posts slandering her mother.<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire, a woman who betrayed Jacob during their marriage and gave birth to Arthur\u2019s son.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cExposed: The former second wife of the Leach family became pregnant with another man\u2019s child while still married!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShocking! Claire\u2019s moral corruption exposed! She attempts to enter the Jarrett family with her son and blackmail Arthur into giving her status!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt turns out that Cherise is the daughter of Claire and Jacob.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cChaos! It turns out that it\u2019s not just the wealthy who are messy; the powerful also have such complicated relationships.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are Claire\u2019s intentions? Her wolfish ambition is obvious to all.\u201d<\/p>\n
As soon as Crow\u2019s link was clicked, the screen was filled with articles, all of which brought up Claire\u2019s past.<\/p>\n
She sneered. \u201cIt must be Stella. Besides you, I can\u2019t think of anyone else who would do such a thing. You\u2019re a little too impatient.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s interesting that you only dare to post it in the circle of the powerful and don\u2019t dare to spread it widely. Should I say you\u2019re smart or stupid?\u201d<\/p>\n
