Bennett had been resting his eyes. Suddenly, his eyes peeled open and he turned his head to look straight at her.

She recoiled, feeling ashamed.

Did someone place a curse on her? Gosh! She wanted to cut her Lips since it was extremely difficult to zip them up.

This was so embarrassing!

Claudia went numb and heat filled her cheeks when she felt Bennett's eyes on her. She didn't dare to look at him, so she lowered her head and stared at the diamond pendant instead.

“Do you like the necklace?"

At the sound of that male voice, Claudia couldn't help but Look up at him. She then glanced at the necklace and said with a nod, "Yes."

Who wouldn't like a necklace that was worth tens of millions of dollars?

“That's good to know."

After nodding thoughtfully, he suddenly asked, “Which one do you Like better, me or the necklace?"

Claudia was rendered speechless.

Sure enough, this was a well-laid trap!

Claudia pondered for a while before piping up, "How can you compare yourself to a necklace, Bennett? Anyway, if I have to choose, I'll choose you. Your face is a sight to behold. And your handsomeness is second to none.”

No human being hated good praise.

Bennett beamed. After a few moments of silence, he said, “If I also had to choose, I'll choose you too, wifey."

"Aww! Thank you."

Despite acting touched, Claudia didn't think she was worthy of being compared to this extremely expensive necklace.

Silence returned to the car. The light turned green, and the car resumed motion.

Soon, they arrived at the gate of the hotel. The driver drove through the gate. As soon as the car came to a halt, the doorman came to open the door.

Claudia, who was still seated in the car, was gobsmacked to find a crowd outside. There was a long red carpet that came from the door down to the interlocked flooring. Guests walked alone or with their dates as camera lights flashed.

No wonder Bennett stopped at nothing to get her all dolled up. This was indeed no ordinary party.

After Bennett got out of the car, he stretched out his hand to her and helped her out.

Her fingertips had only come in contact with his warm palm for a moment, but the warmth Lingered for quite a while.

They locked arms and walked on the red carpet Like royalty. Since they had stopped by a restaurant to have dinner, they were inevitably a little late to the party.
