Claire was incredibly shocked by what her father had said. Even after hearing him call Calvin a liar, it made Claire feel very sad.“A liar?” Claire repeated what her father had said. She showed a sad expression on her face.Bryan quickly nodded his head. “Yes, of course, he has committed fraud. Do you really believe that such a poor man could have given you this gift?”“This gift box contains so many jewels. It’s impossible for Calvin to have given this to you.” Bryan quickly stated what he thought.Knowing that Calvin was just an ordinary soldier, it was clear that a man like him wouldn’t be able to afford such expensive jewelry. And knowing that the gift box had been sent directly from a jewelry store, they couldn’t believe that Calvin was the one who bought it.It made sense that Calvin could give Claire a fake piece of jewelry, but they knew all the jewelry sent to them was real, so they were sure Calvin hadn’t given it to her.“He’s a liar. How could a poor man give such an extr

Hearing what Calvin said made everyone there burst into loud laughter again.Of course, they didn’t believe a word Calvin said. They thought Calvin was deceiving them. They were all very sure that something like this was impossible for Calvin to do.“Are you dreaming of becoming a rich man?” Leo spoke loudly, followed by loud laughter from everyone.“What else do you want to prove this time? Are you going to say you went to the store yourself and they treated you well?” Leo sarcastically said, thinking that everything Calvin said was just a joke.Meanwhile, Claire was extremely shocked by what Calvin had said. She didn’t expect Calvin to mention such an astronomical price.Claire had no doubt that the gift box was from Calvin. But knowing that Calvin spent 200 million dollars, it was almost unbelievable.200 million dollars was an incredible amount of money. Even in her lifetime, Claire knew she could never accumulate such a sum.But Calvin remained very calm. He ignored the insults a

Claire exhaled deeply. She was filled with doubt. However, there was a strong desire urging her to participate in a competition.Actually, she had received news from several friends discussing a competition that would soon be held.It was a competition that she hadn't participated in for a long time. And Claire was unsure how to calm herself, remembering that she hadn't entered any contests for years.This was a modeling competition that would soon take place, and Claire was very interested in the prize money being offered."10,000 dollars, isn’t that a huge prize for just one day?" Claire whispered to herself.She had been clenching her fingers ever since. She wanted to win that prize. It would relieve some of the burden on Calvin.Claire realized that all this time, she had been a burden to Calvin. She had never given him anything other than sadness. So, by entering the competition and winning the 10,000 dollars, she would give it to Calvin.Claire remembered several years ago, befo

A few days passed, and now Claire had arrived at the competition venue, which was about to begin. She came together with Calvin.Just like before, the rapid beating of her heart brought back her doubts. But her determination was incredibly strong. She truly didn’t want to keep being a burden to Calvin. She only wanted to help lighten the load for the both of them. At the very least, she wouldn’t make things harder for Calvin, and she would be somewhat useful.Claire stopped walking. She looked at Calvin with a slight smile. “Wait here, Calvin. I can’t take you inside.”Calvin nodded. He held Claire’s hand. “You have to stay calm. I’ll be waiting for you here.”“I know you’ll do great. I’ll be waiting and sitting over there,” Calvin said, pointing to one of the waiting chairs.Claire nodded. Calvin’s words helped her feel calmer. “Alright. I’ll go now.”Calvin nodded again. Then, he let Claire walk away from him.Now Claire was in a different room. A few people looked at her with stran

Claire felt very uncomfortable hearing the many bad things said by Cloe. Even she knew that Cloe's words were able to provoke everyone there. This was an untrue act.All eyes were on her, as if Claire was a very bad woman. This accusation really embarrassed her.Claire tried hard to get away with her appearance wearing bad clothes, not expecting that she would get such a painful accusation.Cloe looked back at the committee. Folding her arms with a cynical look. "This is an unfair act.""Isn't something like this not allowed?" Cloe looked at the other people. Trying to ignite the atmosphere to pressure Claire. This was an act of protest about her being eliminated in the competition.She smiled secretly with memories. Thinking that she had succeeded in inciting everyone there. After all, Cloe really believed in what she thought.So far everyone knows that she is much better than Claire. It makes no sense if she is eliminated."Doesn't she deserve punishment?" Cloe raised an eyebrow. Wa
