Chapter: 1336
Sitting in the car, Claudia didn't hurry to fasten her seatbelt.
Instead, she turned to Bennett and held his hand when he got in the driver's seat. “Don't be angry anymore, okay?"
Bennett turned to look at her hopeful eyes and smiled slightly. “I'm not angry."
“Really?”
He raised his hand to touch her face. "If I was still angry, then I would have done more than just get you away from that situation."
"What else would you have done if you were really angry then?"
Claudia asked and looked up at him.
"Well, I would have at least made the security guard throw her out."
Hearing his words, Claudia couldn't help but laugh. “But you looked so cold just now."
“That's because I really wanted to get angry." Bennett leaned down and gave her a kiss. “Did Xavier's sister bully you?"
"No." Seeing his intense gaze, Claudia couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed as she told him what had exactly happened two months ago. "She was furious that day. Maybe that's the reason why she always looks so displeased every time she sees me."
“You are amazing," Bennett praised her with a smile, feeling relieved that she was not bullied by that woman.
Claudia felt a little bashful upon hearing his praise. Her eyes saw a car drive past them, reminding her that they were still in the car.
“Let's go home."
"Okay," Bennett answered, but he didn't let go of her hand. Instead, he moved closer.
"What..." Before she could finish her sentence, she heard the click of her seatbelt.
Upon realizing that she might have misread the situation, Claudia blushed. Then, she picked up the phone and pretended to look at it.
Bennett gave her a glance, but he decided not to say anything. He leaned back in his seat, fastened his seatbelt, and started the car so they could finally leave.
It was only nine o'clock in the evening when they finally arrived home. As soon as she changed her clothes, Claudia noticed that she had several messages from Aurora.
It had been a while since the last time they spoke with each other.
Aurora had been busy so they hadn't had the chance to catch up.
Upon seeing the messages, Claudia quickly picked up her phone and clicked the messages.
Amongst Aurora's messages, there were two screenshots.
“Wow! How long has it been? You're currently the trending topic again. I'm so jealous!"
