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 she believed him.

Secondly, he 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 he 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 it firsthand how diligent Scarface was towards him. 2 Lastly, he could only claim that Scarface's brother was a relative of a friend that they had met at a gathering before. He recognized him at the restaurant, so he showed respect on behalf of the mutual friend. 2 Initially, Claire felt something was off and didn't want to buy it, but since Charlie was very serious and earnest, she knew that that was all the answers she was going to get and so, decided to stop questioning him. 2 Meanwhile, Loreen had been observing Charlie all along. The more she watched him, the more she felt that Charlie was not that simple of a person, so she decided to keep an eye on him to find out his secrets! 2 *** Clinton had been terribly beaten. He was in a coma when he was sent to the hospital.

Way before the big day, Charlie had told Claire that he wanted to give her a surprise. Therefore, before they walked out the door, Charlie urged her 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 formal dress? Even if it is our wedding anniversary today, do I really have to dress up so lavishly?" 3 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." 1

He had kept the secret of tonight's surprise so perfectly that Claire didn't e have any doubts about it. 1 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, he would prepare ssmall gifts for her. 1 However, this year was very different. Charlie was unusually mysterious that even at this moment, she couldn't tell what was playing in her husband's mind about tonight's event. 1 After a while, they got changed, hailed a taxi, and went all the way to Shangri-La. 3
