Making

Chapter 6

At about nine o’clock in the morning, the sun shone on the beach in Oakhaven. There was a seaside villa.

Oakhaven was a coastal city. Seaside villas surrounded by soft beaches were favored by rich people.

A young and beautiful woman came out of a large villa.

It was Claire.

Claire was wearing a white cap, a pair of sunglasses, a fashionable white T–shirt, white sneakers, and denim shorts, revealing her straight long legs.

She looked energetic and sexy.

She was walking a white Bichon Frisé. It was like a lovely toy.

The cute little dog had big, black, and round eyes.

This was Claire’s beloved dog, Snowball.

Claire didn’t ask the bodyguards to follow her to walk her dog.

She walked her dog leisurely along the seaside road.

Although she had experienced an unpleasant incident last night, Claire didn’t seem to have been affected much.

To be exact, she didn’t care about a scumbag like Brandon, let alone be hurt by him.

After walking slowly for less than a mile, Claire saw a young man lying on a rock not far

away.

He pulled his hat down over his head, holding a fishing rod with one hand.

Seeing this, Claire mumbled, “Is this person here to fish or to sleep?”

It would be strange if he could catch a fish in this way.

Suddenly, the young man took off his hat, revealing his face. He was Gilmore. He sat up and yelled happily, “Finally, a fish has taken the bait!”

Gilmore quickly reeled the fish in. It weighed more than half a kilogram.

He took the fish off the hook and threw it into the small bucket next to him.

After that, Gilmore smiled at Claire. She was standing by the road not far away. He said, “Who said one can’t fish and sleep at the same time? I can.

Then, Gilmore stopped looking at Claire. He baited his hook again and cast it into the

sea.

He then lay back down on the rock and wore the hat to shade his face from the sun.

Seeing this. Claire couldn’t help smiling. She thought, “This man is interesting! He can catch a fish like this.”

Claire didn’t stay any longer. She continued to walk her dog.

As Claire’s footsteps faded away, Gilmore removed his hat gently and sat up. Watching Claire leave, he thought, “It’s almost time for Brandon to attack Claire.”

He took the fishing rod, put on his hat, and walked towards Claire.

The seaside road was very quiet. There were occasionally luxury cars on the way to or from the villas and few pedestrians.

Various kinds of green trees grew on the roadside. The bright sunlight passed through the branches and leaves. Sparrows were jumping and chirping happily in the trees.

This put Claire in an exceptionally good mood. She said to the cute Bichon Frisé beside her, “Snowball, say hello to the sparrows.”

Snowball looked at her smiling with its black eyes. As if it could understand what Claire said, it barked at the

sparrows in the trees.

As soon as Snowball greeted the birds enthusiastically, they twittered and flew away.

Seeing this, Claire couldn’t help laughing. She said to her cute dog, “Snowball, you scared the

saway. Remember to be gentler next time,

Snowball, however, raised its little head and barked at Claire.

It sounded as if Snowball was retorting Claire

After playing with her dog for a while, Claire continued to walk forward.

When they turned the holding onto Snowball’s leash, saw a man and a mask rush over from behind a big tree.

Before Claire could react, the man grabbed her arm and pulled her behind the tree.

The man took Claire by the throat and pressed her against the tree.

She couldn’t shout or move.

Seeing Snowball beside her, she let go of the leash.

Snowball looked at Claire, who was in pain, then ran away quickly.

Seeing that Snowball was running towards the villa, Claire prayed silently. She hoped. that Snowball could bring the bodyguards over in time. Then, she could be saved.

“Who… are you? What do you want to do?” Although she was gripped by the throat, Claire could still make a weak and hoarse sound.

“Claire. you and the Carters are so cruel. You’ve even announced that you’ll sever ties with the Wilsons. You want to destroy the Wilsons‘ business. Now that I’ve been expelled from the Wilsons by my grandfather, I’ll ruin you!” The man in the hat growled with hatred.

You’re Brandon. Why… why are you here?” Claire recognized Brandon’s voice at once. She was angry and surprised.

She asked that because she had never told Brandon or anyone else about her seaside villa except for her family members.

Brandon sneered. “More than a month ago, I secretly put a tracker on your Ferrari. I know you have a villa here and you like walking your dog along the seaside road.”

Claire finally understood why Brandon was hiding behind a big tree by the roadside. It seemed that he had known her whereabouts for a long time.

“Brandon, what do you want?” Although Claire was overtaken by Brandon, she regained her composure.

Brandon took off his sunglasses, looking sharply at Claire. “First, the Carters have to agreement with us.

“Second, transfer 150 million dollars to my Juliss Bank account as a security deposit for the cooperation between the Carters and the Wilsons. If the Carters break the agreement with the Wilsons, the money will be used as compensation.”

There were two reasons for Brandon’s requests. Firstly, once the Wilsons and the Carters cooperated again, he could return to his family.

Secondly, the 150 million dollars was not a security deposit. It was his

money. Even he was expelled from the family, he would have no worries with the large sum of money in his bank account.

Claire looked at Brandon calmly as she said, “I accept your requests, but you have to go of me and let me call my grandpa.”

Brandon loosened his grip on Claire’s neck. At the same time, he took out a dagger from his pocket and pointed it at Claire. “Call your grandpa quickly!”

If Claire tried to fool him, he would make her regret it.

Claire took out her phone and made a call.

Brandon stared fixedly at her. Meanwhile, a car zoomed past.

There was a big tree between them and the road. Thus, it was not easy for the drivers notice them.

Yet when the car passed by, Brandon looked at the road subconsciously.

At that moment, Claire realized it was a rare opportunity.

She quickly threw her phone at Brandon’s face.

Although Brandon was alert, his face was hit by the phone before he knew it. He let our

a cry.

Claire quickly escaped from behind the big tree to the road.

“Bitch, do you want to run away? It’s not that easy!” Ignoring the pain on his face, Brandon held the dagger while chasing after Claire in a rage.

Claire ran as fast as she could, but when she stepped on the sand, she slipped and fell to the ground with a crash.

Seeing Claire fall, Brandon said with a ferocious look, “Bitch, how dare you play tricks on me? I’ll send you to hell today!”

Brandon was burning with anger and thrust the dagger at Claire.

Claire blanched, and screamed, “Help!”

Just as Brandon’s knife was about to touch Claire, they heard a swoosh.

Something like a long pole hit Brandon with a bang.
