Chapter 168: Scare Them
“No, it’s not me!”
The veins on Joseph’s forehead bulged, and as if he’d lost his mind, he grabbed Claire’s neck in a choke–hold with such force that the veins on the back of his hand popped out.
“I love Winona so much, how could I kill her? It wasn’t me! Claire, what kind of conspiracy do you have? What does the Summers family want? Tell me… Now!”
Claire coughed violently, unable to speak at all with her neck choked.
She was unable to breathe, her face turned red and she raised her hands, grabbing Joseph’s hands around her neck as hard as she could.
“Let… Me… Go…”
Just then, the door of the lounge was suddenly kicked open from outside, an agile figure quickly ran to Joseph’s side, he grabbed Joseph’s hand that was choking Claire’s neck and forced Joseph to release his hand.
Joseph turned around and his eyes widened at the sight of the man, “Sean!”
It was exactly Sean.
Just yesterday, Sean had gotten word of Joseph’s arrival in Brighton, and that was when Claire had been planning how to meet Joseph.
She had to be alone with Joseph if she wanted to get something out of him, because it was only when they were alone that Joseph would let his guard down
with her and tell her what she wanted to know.

Sean loved Claire so much, how could he really let Claire turn around and leave in anger because of his jealousy?
All of this was just Claire’s way of creating an opportunity for Joseph to get closer to her.
Sean shook Joseph’s hand away with all his might, then bent down to help Claire to her feet, looking at the fingerprints on Claire’s neck, anger appeared in his eyes.
“Sir…”
Claire coughed hard and gripped Sean’s arm hard with both hands.
Joseph, no matter what, was her father, although there was no love between them and this was the first time they had met, they were undoubtedly father and daughter.
She couldn’t do anything to her father no matter what.
“Let’s go.”
Sean gave Joseph a sharp, warning and intimidating look before he helped Claire toward the door.
At the doorway, Issac was lying on the ground, covering his stomach and groaning in pain, Sean kicked him and his body hit the door open!
Out the door, Claire’s eyes were full of disappointment, “It’s not him.”
Sean was both angry and chagrined, “I knew it was a bad idea, if I had been there a little later, you might have…”

“Sir!” said Claire, looking up at him with a smile, “how could you possibly
be late? I trust you so much.”
Sean shook his head and could only hold her up heartily, “You weren’t afraid of scaring the kids just now?”
Claire chuckled, “They are my kids, they are tough and brave, Sir, as long as it doesn’t get physical, they won’t be scared.”
As they were talking, Belle and Jon saw them coming back and Belle ran over, then wrapped her arms around Claire’s legs.
“I knew you wouldn’t really fight!”
Claire smiled and was about to hug her when Jon saw the fingerprints on her neck.
“Mommy, you’re hurt again.”
Claire was speechless.
Why did he say “again“?
Was she that vulnerable?
Who could really hurt her if she didn’t let them?
“Mommy’s fine, don’t worry, guys.”
Julia stood by, she had heard about this plan, but she didn’t expect that
Claire would get hurt.

Zayn waved at Claire from a distance.
Claire nodded, and Sean walked over with Belle and Jon.
It was a piece of raw gemstone with a diameter of fifty centimeters and a height of at least thirty centimeters, it was not too big but not too small
either.
As soon as they approached, Zayn lowered his voice in excitement and said, “This raw gemstone should be of high quality, I’ve checked it.”
Claire was about to walk over to the raw gemstone and take a closer look when suddenly Kira’s voice came, “I want this one!”
Claire frowned.
With a frown, Zayn turned to the merchant and said, “I was the one who saw it first, how about first come, first served?”
“What you see is what you get?”
Kira sneered, “So you’ve seen so much here, are you going to buy them all?”
Zayn couldn’t utter a word to refute.
Kira handed her card to the owner with panache, “Whoever pays first gets it.”
The owner cheerfully took Kira’s card, plugged it into the POS machine, entered the amount, and then turned the POS machine to Kira, “Miss, please
enter your PIN.”
Kira proudly took the POS machine in front of Claire and the others and was just about to enter the PIN when she saw the numbers on it and her whole face

When Zayn asked, the seller said the price was half a million dollars, and now he was actually selling it to Kira for five million!
Hilarious!
It wasn’t because Kira had a smug and arrogant look on her face that the seller thought she was super–rich.
The seller, however, explained, “It was originally five million dollars, you don’t believe me, ask them.”
Zayn smiled while nodding, “Yes, that’s five million.”
Kira knew it couldn’t be five million dollars, otherwise, why were they laughing like that?
Seeing that she didn’t say anything, the seller just glared at her and impatiently urged her, “Are you buying? If you don’t want it, I will have to sell it to them.”
Kira clenched her teeth hard, it was only five million dollars!
She could afford five million dollars. She couldn’t be looked down upon!
Moreover, Claire had great judgment, which was why she got that pink crystal. Maybe there was something valuable in this gemstone,
“I’ll take it!”
She said the words almost through gritted teeth, Claire and Zayn saw her lower her head and enter her PIN before the transaction was successful.
“Congratulations, Ms. Summers, it is yours.”

Claire smiled before leaving with Zayn and the others.
Zayn couldn’t help but laugh while walking, “Boss, we came here this time mainly to buy raw materials. We need expensive ones and ordinary ones. I have checked that one, and its value at most is three million. Kira’s going to suffer a great loss.”
