‘Nice one. I'm fine now." | cursed in my heart. "Claude, you jerk."
| thought he wasn't expectingto snap at him, so Claude stared atin disbelief, "Is this what you've learned
after leaving hfor a few days? I'm not just your brother. I'm also your guardian!" His face turned a shade of
stormy gray, visibly angered. But | couldn't care less. "Claude, do you have to wait until I'm dead because of her
to believe me?"
As Claude and | were about to lose it in a hysterical argument, Kate stepped in, "Claude, lettalk to Claire,
please. No more fighting. Don't fight because of me."
| snorted, "Why would | talk to you, murderer?"
"Watch your mouth!" The more Claude defended Kate, the more rebellious | became.
But this time, | wouldn't be as foolish as in my past life. | wouldn't leave without evidence.
Kate said, "Claude, go inside. | need to talk to Claire."

Once Claude was gone, Kate's demeanor changed entirely.
"Where's the bracelet?" she demanded, closing in on me.
| smirked. 'So, the fox is showing its tail now?'
| questioned her, "You admit you sent someone to my apartment today for the bracelet?"
She didn't answer but pressed, "Givethe bracelet and disappear from Claude's life, and | might spare you."
| wasn't scared. "And if | don't? | have proof that you hired someone to attack me. And don't forget about Daniel
in the hospital. Once he wakes up, he can identify you." Kate smiled evilly. "Hmph, he won't live through the
day!"
Kate didn't know I had dialed
Claude's number during our
conversation, and Claude had been listening to her venomous words the whole time. As she made that threat,
Claude was already standing behind her "Did you send someone to hurt Claire?"
Kate's face drained of color, looking shocked, turning around to try and explain to Claude. But Claude stepped
back, moving closer to me, his expression even colder than before.
"Please leave my house," he said, pointing to the door for Kate to go.
But Kate kept crying and shaking her head. "Claude, letexplain..."
"There's nothing to explain. From the moment you hurt Claire, we had nothing to discuss."
Seeing Claude so determined for the first tmadewish things had been the sin my past life. Maybe
then | wouldn't have had to die once, feeling utterly hopeless about him.
"Claude, | didn't do these things. | just knew about them," Kate tried to explain again, but Claude closed his eyes,
refusing to engage.
Kate explained, "Claude, the

Goodwin family can offer you the business empire you've always wanted to surpass your uncle. The Goodwin
family can help you. Can Claire do that? Besides, | didn't do these things. | just knew about them. Isn't my
apology enough?"
Kate's words shockedeven more. She knew | was in danger but never warned me, enjoying watching me
suffer. "Kate, you're truly terrifying." | stood behind Claude, and if he hadn't heldback, | would have lunged
at Kate.
"Claire, what are you but a burden? You've always used your parents' deaths to manipulate Claude. For years,
every the looks at you, he thinks of the death of your parents. Do you know how much pressure that puts on
him? Every investment he wants to make gets hindered by the tragedy of your parents. You're the most terrifying
one!" Kate screamed hysterically.
"That's enough. Go home." Claude didn't wish to make things too difficult for Kate.
Still not giving up hope, Kate eventually left with her lips quivered.
Once Kate was out the door, Claude turned to me, his hand outstretched. "Givethe recording."
| frowned, puzzled at how he knew | had recorded everything. Subconsciously, | took a step back.
