Hearing the surname mentioned by Claire, of course it wasn’t unfamiliar to him. The man named Zack stared at Calvin for a moment. Then he turned his gaze back to Claire.

“That surname doesn’t sound unfamiliar. I think I’ve heard of it before,” Zack said, raising one of his eyebrows.

For a few moments, Zack tried to recall the family name. Until eventually, he remembered the Moonstone family.

A triumphant smile appeared on his face. His condescending glance turned to Calvin. “Isn’t that the family that was destroyed?”

“Yes, I heard the Moonstone family even disappeared a few years ago. Nothing remains,” Zack affirmed his statement. He even seemed rather puzzled by how Claire and Calvin could say the name so proudly.

Zack laughed after learning that fact, considering himself far superior to Calvin, who was standing next to Claire. He adjusted his tie, presenting himself as someone more refined than Calvin. “As I’ve said before, that man is completely unsuitable for you, Miss Claire.”

    Calvin stared at both of them with eyes filled with anger. Knowing how truly awful their behavior was made it unbearable for him.Selly looked at him coldly. “How dare you look at me like that? Lower your gaze, damn it!” Selly pointed at Calvin’s face with one hand.“Someone like you, just a staff member, doesn’t deserve to be here. Leave and stop trying to play the hero,” Jessy added firmly.Of course, she wasn’t pleased when someone came and interfered in her affairs. She had to teach that foolish Claire a lesson.Calvin’s gaze remained sharp. “I’m not a staff member.” His voice was cold.His eyes turned to Claire, who now looked like she was in pain.

    Claire was already seated at the vanity. She was getting ready for her makeup session. Her gaze had been fixed on her reflection in the mirror for some time. Meanwhile, a woman was carefully applying makeup to her face.From time to time, the woman smiled at Claire. “You look absolutely stunning, miss.”Claire barely registered the makeup artist’s words. For the most part, her expression remained flat and uneasy.She kept fidgeting with her feet and wringing the fabric of her dress. Her chest pounded with anxiety.The makeup artist paused, looking at Claire’s blank expression. She frowned slightly, sensing that something might be wrong. “Are you alright, miss?”Claire moved her eyes to meet hers and quickly nodded. “Yes, I’m fine.”She forced a smile, trying to reassure the makeup artist.Of course, there was something Claire was hiding. And naturally, she couldn’t tell anyone about it—which only added to her sense of pressure.The makeup artist nodded. “Alright then. I’m glad you’re

    Calvin had arrived at his home. His eyes immediately fell on Claire, who was currently sitting in the room. Calvin quickly walked over and gave Claire a smile. “I’m sorry I didn’t get the chance to pick you up.”Claire shook her head. “It’s okay,” she replied in a weary voice. There was even a smile on her face, though it looked clearly forced.Calvin furrowed his brows, sensing that something had happened to Claire.He sat beside her and touched her hand. “How was your job?”“Did everything go well?” Calvin continued asking.Claire looked at him and nodded. “Yes, everything went well.”She answered in a soft voice. From the look in her eyes, Calvin was sure something had happened to her.Calvin raised an eyebrow, observing Claire more intently. “Are you alright, Claire?”Claire gave him a faint smile and nodded. “Yes, I’m fine. There’s nothing to worry about,” she tried to reassure Calvin.Calvin just let out a sigh. Then he nodded and stood up from beside Claire. “It’s your first da

    The three men furrowed their brows. They glanced at each other, then turned back to Calvin and burst into laughter.“What’s wrong? Are you embarrassed to apologize to us?” Dev said mockingly, clearly underestimating Calvin.He was completely convinced that deep down, Calvin was terrified of facing all three of them at once. Dev believed Calvin was already imagining his defeat—he just didn’t have the guts to admit it or apologize for everything that had happened.“You don’t have to be ashamed to apologize. We’re still being kind enough to give you a chance,” Dev said arrogantly.He stepped forward a little and extended his foot.“You can start now. Apologize and bow at my feet.” Then he laughed again along with the other two men.“It’s not too late yet—before you really regret it. In fact, I doubt you’ll even survive after this,” the man in black added, threatening Calvin.He thought attacking Calvin would be an easy task.“What are you waiting for? Do it now before I actually attack y

    Dev was utterly shocked when he felt the burning pain in his hand.His eyes widened in disbelief. He quickly pulled his hand back and saw that his fingers were red and nearly broken.“Arrgggg… damn it. This really hurts!” he screamed again, clutching his hand.Fully aware, Dev realized that he had just punched Calvin—so how was he the one feeling such excruciating pain?His eyes locked onto Calvin, who was now staring back at him with a cold gaze.Dev swallowed hard.“What’s happening? Why does my hand hurt so much? And his body—” he paused mid-sentence, staring at Calvin seriously. For a moment, Dev could hardly blink. He kept observing Calvin’s body.Dev had always thought Calvin was just an ordinary man. His build wasn’t even bigger than his own. How could his body be as hard as steel?The pain in his hand pulsed more intensely. He was nearly unable to move it. Dev truly had no idea what was going on.“Who is he?” His heart pounded violently. Suddenly, his whole body felt cold, swe
