Claire just wanted to stomp her feet out of frustration. She might have been able to convince herself
that Lush
Cosmetics was nothing special, but City Salon was a different case. It was much more of a shocker to
her. This place looked extremely luxurious, it was possibly even more luxurious than ancient castles.
When she walked in, she felt as if she was living in a dream. However, this place was owned by Alex.
Despite hearing Valâs words, she didnât dare to utter a word. She didnât even care that she had been
insulted
as heartless and blind. This was the first time Eloise had heard this, so she was fairly interested.
Hugging Valâs arm, she said, âWait, really? What happened?
Give us some details here!â There were many different versions of this story, hence Val told hers. It was
clear that the mother-in-law of
said story was being bashed to the extreme. She was described as a foolish, hot tempered and
heartless b*tch. Claire felt as if her teeth were going to break from clenching them too hard, yet Eloise
started gossiping as
well. âOh my god, how could such a weird mother-in-law exist? Well she really is quite blind to have
done
that! What kind of son-in- law does she want anyway?
Does she want the president to be her son-in-law?
That woman must be ill in the head.â Claireâs eyelids twitched gently, still not daring to say a word.
Eloise asked, âWho is this disgusting mother-in-law? I bet her daughter is no different. Your boss was
right
to get a divorce. That god damn mother-in-law can die in a ditch.â
âAhem!â Claire was worried that her identity might be revealed at some point, hence she spoke up.
âAlright, alright, why are we even talking about this?
Itâs not like itâs any of our business. Letâs just get on with the
facial treatment, I still have some other things to tend to later.â
âOkay!â Val immediately covered Claireâ s scar with the scar removing cream. âMiss, your wound seems
to
be quite deep. I donât think thereâs quite enough cream for it to fully recover, so you should buy another
bottle
after getting this treatment.â Claire asked out of instinct. âHow much is it?â Val replied, â580 thousand
per bottle, and you have to preorder it as well.â
Claire had almost jumped out of her seat when she heard the price. Just then, Eloise kept telling her
that 580 thousand dollars was a reasonable price for a miraculous product. From then on, Claire
started regretting her actions deeply. The more she thought about this, the more she
regretted it. âNot only did I not benefit from Alex and Dorothyâs marriage, I had to endure the humiliation
of having a
useless son-in-law for months.â
âNow that Alex was rising back up and becoming rich⦠No, heâs already rich now, Iâve already forced
him
to get a divorce! So, I canât own any of that money!â âI feel like Iâm going to have a heart attack at this
point! Wait, wait, no! Somethingâs not right!â âDorothy had just gotten a divorce with that bastard a few
days ago. Could he have become the owner of City
Salon long before that?
Wouldnât that mean that City Salon is a common property? Half of its shares should
be ours! Yes, that must be it! Iâll have to demand it from him!â
Just then, she heard a manâs voice coming from outside. It was familiar, sounding somewhat like
Alexâs. She immediately jumped out of her seat and rushed out .
