Knowing that Adrian's mother is the founder of the club didn't crossed claire mind one bit. It was such a plot twist for Claire finding out that Adama Saint Laurent, aka Adrian's mother, is standing right in front of her
she should have guess from her features, she reminded her of Adrian. And come to think of it, Adrian really look like her mother. They both have gentle features,
Claire stammered as the responded. "I-um-"
"Don't scare Ms. Pelerson away, April or she might change her mind and leave this club," she said jolingly.
*please have a seat the other is on their way."
April whispered beside me. "So, how do you know Adrian?
"Well, I know his grandfather very well. It doesn't occur to me at first that he has a grandson." She let out a chuckled.
"It's a sign that you and Adrian are meant to be."
Claire turned to Aprill with a confused look but didn't say anything further.
A moment later, the rest of the ladies come, and it is not as much as Claire thought, in total there are fifteen of them. It is really private and exclusive. Claire spotted someone who is also her age, but it is only two of them including Claire it will be three youngster who got the honor of attending this club, Today's gathering is not as heavy as Claire thought. It is only an introduction to welcoming new members and the woman who is her age, are also a new member. The gathering filled with laughter, stories, food and warm, Claire found herself liking their company which she never thought possible.
"Are you enjoying the gathering?" Adrianna approach Claire while asling her with a smile.
"Of course, Ms.Saint Laurent. It is very warm and comfortable. Thank you so much for inviting me."
"No worries, my dear. You deserve Lt."
me? Is it because of Adtian?"
However, Claire couldn't help thinking otherwise. "If you don't mind me asking, what is the reason for you to invite me?
She chuckled Lightly. "No, of course not. Don't get me wrong. Adrian did tell me about you but only vaguely. And I invite you here because of your achievement not because my son know you or my father low you."
"No offense but that's relief." She shot Claire a smile. "Don't worry I know how it feels being known for Saint Laurent daughter in law. It is not a good feeling. They instantly forget who you are just because you are connected with these powerful people." "Lagree."

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot. Here," Adrianna pulled a card out of her handbag, and it is a rose gold color card with Claire name on it. "This card r official member of the London High Socialite."
Taking it from her grasp, Claire looked at the shining card. She bumed to her and arched br brows. "What does this do?"
"You can gain access to a popular golf club doesn't matter if it is book cause we, London High Socialite have our own spot, just show them the card and they will attend you
"Wow interesting. What else can you do with this?—
*You can access a salon, club, borse riding, this is what I love the most, casino." Claire eyes widen as she did not expect such simple card can access all of that. "Do you Ladies still out clubbing?" Adrianna chuckled as she found Claire expression hilarious "of course, my dear. After all, we need our me time. Just be careful not to lose it."
Claire nodded in understanding. "I will keep this safe. Thank you very much."
*Anytime, my dear."
The rest of the gathering went well, and Claire met a lot of new people. She is glad that she can connect with these smart, powerful and hardworking women
As the gathering ended, Claire headed out first after saying her goodbye to them. She needs to go to the office to continue her work. She needs to know the update of Cortex 20. She needs this project to go perfectly without any flows
As Claire arrived at her office, Sandra inform her that Harris company will make the announcement bout their collaboration.
"When will the news be release?" she asked
Sandra smiled feeling content about Metacortex and Harris collaboration "Today, Ms. Peterson at 3PM." Claire nodded and enter her office. She couldn't help but wonders what crossed Alex mind especially since his visit yesterday which they ended up arguing again. Maybe this is a sign of his apology? Claire thought to herself.
She then shrugged and accepted at the end.
Honestly, Claice is looking forward will the project it is only Alex that is in the way however, from now on, Claire have to be professional and set aside their differences.
Clair is willing to do that as long as the project go perfectly.
Back at Ales penthouse, he receive a phone call from his Pl. He answered it in a heartbeat curious to know the update about Claire Peterson
we have obtais some information about Claire Peterson. The rest about her is still on the research."
"It's fine. Tell me what you know about her
Three years ago, the Peterson family were caught in a car crash. A drunk driver accidentally crash the truck into Claire's car. From the picture the car crash must be very dangerous cause the car was split into halt."
Alex eyes widen in disbelief hearing this revelation. He couldn't believe his ears that Claire's family were in a car crash and moreover, they must be dead due to the car crash. Suddenly, Alex felt bad about her and starting to regret how he acted towards her in the past. "For a few years, not one could identity the body nor the car even the police couldn't, which I find very suspicious. And the news about the car crash died down after
"Walt, you tell me that the police couldn't even identify the body?"
"How is it a police officer couldn't identify the car crash with all of the technology they have?" Alex eyebrow scrunched in confusion. This doesn't seems right. The crash is obviously a set up and someone pay the police. How about Claire? Is Claire was also involved in the car crash?"
"She did sir, however, in the document the police didn't mention a twenty-three-year-old woman."
How is that possible? Can we trust the document?" Alex needs a concrete proof, and the document didn't do justice
-The document it is indeed real, sir
"Have you find where she ended up in or where did she go for those three years?" his mind is burning with question and also answer. He wanted to know what happened to Claire. What really did happened to Claire. Asking her about it won't solve anything. It will only make the situation worse and so is their relationship. "I'm sorry, we are still checking "Don't stop until you find something important about her."
"Understood, sit."
The call ended and Alex took a sit at the couch while digesting the information he had acquired.
"I am one step closer to know the real you, Claire." He muttered to himself while staring at the fireplace.
