Alex was seated with his back against the door, so he didnât see Claire when she first came in. Except
that Carey, who was sitting opposite him, saw her first.
With a frown, she said, âWaitress, if thereâs nothing else, stay outside first! Donât bother us eating and
chatting here.â
It was all because Claire was wearing a red and black traditional dress. The style was very similar to
the ones that the waitresses in South Cali Dining wore. Iâm why Carey thought she was a waitress.
Claire almost threw up blood on the spot from the indignance she felt.
This woman dared to treat her as a waitress? Was there something wrong with her eyes?! But, she
remembered what Adriannaâs friend had said, that this woman was from the Stoermer family in
Michigan, and the fact that she was someone of high authority and should not be offended.
Thus, she suppressed the rage she felt in her heart and said, âIâm not a waitress. Iâm his former mother-
in-law.â
As she said that, she pointed at Alex. When he heard the voice, Alex almost got a heart attack.
The red wine he had just drunk went down the wrong way, and he almost choked to death.
Daya quickly picked up a napkin for Alex and helped wipe the liquid off Alex as she gently asked, âAre
you alright? Is anything wrong?â
âIâm fine, Iâm fine!â
Alex calmed his mind and thought, âHow could an insane person like Claire show up suddenly? I came
from Divine Constabulary. Itâs impossible that she followed me. Then, thereâs only one possibility, that
she must also be here for a meal. Does that mean Dorothy is also here?â
When he thought of that, he felt like he was in a difficult situation.
Although no one else knew, he was well aware that his divorce with Dorothy was basically a farce, and
this woman was still his mother-in-law.
He asked, âWhy are you here?â
Claire sneered at him. âWhy canât I be here? Of course, you hope I wouldnât be here so that no one will
be able to reveal your wicked and deceitful nature to deceive women. I came here to let everyone know
what kind of person you really are.â
Then, she looked towards Carey and pointed at Alex, and said, âMadam, Iâm this guyâs former mother-
in-law, and Iâm well aware of his nature. Heâs a waste of space specializing in relying on his wife to get
on in life. He also relies exclusively on women to get rich. Did you think the only woman he has is your
daughter?â
âWrong, the number of women he has is numerous. Just a few days ago, I saw him with a female
doctor making out on the streets. You can have it checked out. Itâs the daughter of Californiaâs miracle
doctor. Her family name is Coney.â
âBesides, Thousand Miles Conglomerateâs current president has also been deceived by him to the
ends of the earth. He uses her, and she isnât even aware of it. She even feels grateful to him, thinking
that he has helped her!â
âThereâs also another one, his former senior, as well as my daughterâs former subordinate⦠Anyway,
the point is that heâs the trashiest among the trash, the worst scumbag of all scumbags. Heâs not
worthy of your daughter at all. If your daughter goes with him, she will definitely regret it.â
After Claire finished, she looked at Alex with a sinister and gleeful expression on her face. She was
determined not to let Alex have a good life.
After relying on his former wife to live his life, he now wanted to jump into Michiganâs Stoermer family to
do the same thing, to become the grandson-in-law of a marquis? Dream on!
âI will tear down all your lies and expose you for who you are today! In front of everyone! They were
dignified people and from a royal family, and theyâd definitely want to keep their image and reputation
intact. They wouldnât agree to have you as their son-in-law after hearing all those, and theyâd be angry
and probably even point their pitchforks at youâ¦â
âHehe, are you riding on a high horse now? Just because you built up Lush Cosmetics, you think
youâve turned the tables on your fortune? Hasnât Brittany been arrogant and looked down on everyone?
Then, go ahead and fight against a royal family! I doubt any of you could!â
âIf you can survive, then Iâll worship you!â
She sneered in her heart and even wanted to laugh loudly. Her plan this time really was just too great
âIf you had to blame someone, you can only blame yourself, Alex. For wanting to climb up the ranks of
the royal family, youâll be just digging your own grave.â
However, just when Claire was celebrating silently, a triumphant expression on her face as she waited
for Carey to jump up and start yelling at Alex, the other woman didnât do that at all.
In fact, Carey just gave Claire an icy look, exuding a clear but invisible aura of rage. âAre you done? If
so, then hurry up and get lost. Also, shut the door on the way out. Youâre not welcome here by
anybody.â
âWhat?!â
