"Claire, who's cusly?" Matthew questioned herautiously,

Clane placed the document aside not really paying attention to it but still answering Matthew question. "Hm? Cindy? That's the woman who dump wit the business foruma." She explained it casually while reading another document. Matthew tinted to her and raised his brows. "The one that you told me about?"

She answered simply

"Are you pot wondering why tasked you about her?"

"Nope."

." She said popping the 'p' and continue to sign the document,

Matthew lipcurl up to a smisk. "You are awfully in a good mood I see. Is this because of yesterday event

She placed down her document and switch her gaze to Matthew and smile. "I wouldn't say I'm in a good mood but I'm rather relief that I am free from Robert "Well, you don't have to worry about him again."

a revenge

She leaned back to her chair twisting the pen in her fingers. "As much as I want to, I can't. I still need to be aware of him. Who knows that he is planning an

"Claire stood up from her chair and moved to sit on the couch next to Matthew. "Anyway, why do you ask about Cindy? Do you like her?"

"Tsk why would I like her? I saw her name trending on X and as I open it, Tavideo of her and you."

Claire eyebrow furrowed in curiosity. "What do you mean?" Matthew handed Claire his phone and she watched the video that he told her about.

The video is about Cindy pouring wine on Claire. She was slightly stunned that someone took a video of it and posted it on X. However, it turns out the video is full footage of the incident that occur at the business forum in New York

She scrolled down to read the comment and found out the comments are bashing Cindy. Saying names to her and say how mean and even comment that Claire is more beautiful than plastic like Candy Claire is natural whereas Cindy clearly have gotten a surgery not just on her face but body as well

As she read that, Claire couldn't help but stifle a laughed,

Matthew raised his brows in amusement as the stared at her. "Why are you laughing? Did you find something funny?

Claire straighten her posture and shook her head although the comment still linger in her mind. "No."

Matthew didn't bought it, so he snatched the phone and read it himself and moments later, he burst out laughing "oh my gosh! What the hell?! People need to stop replying with a gif. Their comments are so creative

"ok, calm down Matt or you will choke on your saliva." She rolled her eyes playfully

"I wonder who posted this." Claire shrugged. "Probably one of the guests."

Matthew turned to her. "Is this bothering you?"

shaking her head, she mised her brows at Matt inquires. "No, why would it bother me?"

"you don't like being online especially on gossip news. In case If it bothers you, I will remove it."

"Please don't. Just ignore it. Besides, they are bashing Cindy not me and even if the situation were reverse, I prefer to ignore it and it will died down by itself. As long as you don't give much attention, people will eventually stop talking about it. That's how the internet works."

*What happened to Cindy, though?"

Claire thought for a while then recall the news she read in the plane. "Hm as far as I know, her career ended. A few brands who made her an ambassador replace ber."

"Did her career died in that very day?" Matthew couldn't help but feel suspicious towards Cindy aftermath. Claire shrugged her shoulders since she doesn't really know. "I don't know. 1 read it in the plane and even if her career ended, who cares. Karma's a bitch." Matthew rewatch the video again as he saw Alex coming out from the crowd and defend Claire. He couldn't help but feel that Alex has something to do with it. After all, he is also one of the most important people in the business world due to his sumame and he also have a lot of connection

But is it possible for Alexander Harris ruling Cindy's career and if he does, what was the reason? Is it for Claire or he just doesn't like Cindy?

Claire noticed his silence and nudged him with her elbow. "Hey, why are you so quiet? What are you thinking?" he turned to her, minds filled with his theories

"Don't get mad at me for asking you this. Could it be possible that Alexander ants was the one who ruin Cindy's career?

She couldn't help but chuckled, "What do you mean? Why would Alexander ruin Cindy's career?"

"Maybe because he saw her harassing you which he doesn'like it so he decided to take matter in to his hands and ruin her career."

*so, in short, you mean that Alexander doing it for me? Matthew nodded which makes Claire Laughed out loud. "I'm sorry. But I think you have way too much free time. Alexander hates me and the feeling is mutual. So, if you said that he doing for me, I find it hard to believe." Marchew frowned deepened. "But what if it's true? I mean hypothetically."

Claire was silent. She tried to picture Alex doing all that for her, but she can't. Alex image in Claire's mind is a big of an asshole he is especially during their manlage so if Matthew sald Alex doing all that for her, she couldn't believe it.

"No, I couldn't imagine Alex doing for me. He's an asshole tatt, I told you during my marriage with him, he doesn't treat me right. So, he wouldn't be the one doing it. Although, if you said Adrian's name instead, maybe i will believe it."

"the question, what if one day, Alex apologize to you for his mistakes and even got on both his knees practically begging for your forgiveness. Will you forgive

Chapter 128 I will not like hum

She thought for a while. "Well, yes. I will forgive him. But if you are wondering, will I get back to him or will I like him? Then no, I will never like him again northe thought of ever getting back to him crossed my mind." Her tone finn as she stated her mind. She knows for sure Alex will never apologize or even claim himself that he is wrong.

Meanwhile in the Harris company, Alex is currently ending his video call meeting with his client until the door to his office open.

He raised his brows at his secretary as she approach him.

"I apologize to interrupt you sir, but the woman on the line kept calling me begging to speak to you."

"Who's the woman?"

"Cindy, sir. Her name is Cindy Marshal" Alex rolled his eyes. "Tell her do not want to speak to her."

*But sir, she will keep interrupting me.

Alex sighed tiredly. "Eine, connect her to my line."

f course, sir." A second later, Alex is connected to Cindy's phone call.

"What do you want?" he said coldly and impatient

"Alex, I'm sorry for what I did. I regret my action towards Claire. Please get my career back. I promise I won't harass both of you." She said between her sobs while begging to Alex. However, Alex doesn't care. She was wrong to think Alexis a forgiving person. "No. That is the c

consequences of your action. If one day you decide to do the same thing to Claire, say goodbye to your father company'

Is Alexander Harris starting to fall for Claire Peterson?
