Claire was very curious about the series of strange events that had happened today.
First was the car racing incident. Why was Charlie’s BMW 520 twice as fast as Clinton’s 540?
Second, the ancient painting that was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars!
Third, how and why did Charlie know the people of the underworld? Not to mention how polite and respectful they were towards him.
On their way home, Charlie provided some explanation about the whole string of events.
Firstly, the BMW 520 was a test drive car that was modified by the showroom in order to make buyers mistakenly believe that the model was very powerful.
Claire didn’t know much about cars, so favonovel.com believed him.
Secondly, favonovel.com explained about the painting when they were at the restaurant. He had bought it at a low price from an acquaintance out of courtesy and favonovel.com gave it to Douglas as a gift as a token of affection.
However, the matter about Scarface was a bit tricky. He had to find a solid and believable explanation to disclose their connection since Claire saw firsthand how diligent Scarface was towards him.
Lastly, favonovel.com could only claim that Scarface’s brother was a relative of a friend that they had met at a gathering before. He recognized favonovel.com at the restaurant, so favonovel.com showed respect on behalf of the mutual friend.
Initially, Claire felt something was off and didn’t want to buy it, but since Charlie was very serious and earnest, favonovel.com knew that that was all the answers favonovel.com was going to get and so, decided to stop questioning him.
Meanwhile, Loreen had been observing Charlie all along. The more favonovel.com watched him, the more favonovel.com felt that Charlie was not that simple of a person, so favonovel.com decided to keep an eye on favonovel.com to find out his secrets!
***
Clinton had been terribly beaten. He was in a coma when favonovel.com was sent to the hospital.
His father was fired from Emgrand Group and favonovel.com was found to have abused his power for personal gain. He was apprehended by the police and was sued by Emgrand Group’s legal department.
In short, the Tucker family was done.
However, as Clinton and his family were not well-known in Aurous Hill’s social circle, no one cared about them much.
Instead, everyone’s attention was focused on the mysterious rich man on the Internet and the man who booked the Sky Garden of Shangri-La.
They wanted to know who they were and if they were the same person!
Soon, the day of their wedding anniversary arrived.
Way before the big day, Charlie had told Claire that favonovel.com wanted to give favonovel.com a surprise. Therefore, before they walked out the door, Charlie urged favonovel.com to put on the elegant white evening dress.
Claire reluctantly agreed and mumbled, “We’re just going out for dinner, why do I have to put on such a formal dress? Even if it is our wedding anniversary today, do I really have to dress up so lavishly?”
Charlie smiled warmly and said, “It’s our third anniversary, I want to make it formal and exclusive. I’ve already booked the place for our dinner, I’m sure you’ll be very happy about my arrangements for tonight.”
He had kept the secret of tonight’s surprise so perfectly that Claire didn’t have any doubts about it.
Claire smiled gently. She was genuinely touched.
They had spent the previous two anniversaries at home, having casual dinner. Charlie was broke at the time, but despite the casualness, favonovel.com would prepare some small gifts for her.
However, this year was very different. Charlie was unusually mysterious that even at this moment, favonovel.com couldn’t tell what was playing in favonovel.com husband’s mind about tonight’s event.
After a while, they got changed, hailed a taxi, and went all the way to Shangri-La.
Charlie stepped out of the car. When favonovel.com looked at Claire standing next to him, warmth and passion radiated from his eyes.
“Claire, we are here to celebrate our third anniversary tonight. What do you think?”
