Scarlett sipped her coffee as she watched Clair unwrap the present leisurely, "I hope you like it, Mr.

Anderson." Clair was surprised to see what was inside, slapping his thigh, "Golly, how did you know | had my eye on this jade pendant?" "I love it! Thank you, Scarlett." Clair couldn't tear himself away from the jade pendant.

Scarlett put her cup down and replied with a smile," When we met two years ago, | happened to overhear what you said to Secretary Hoyle.

She actually didn't take it seriously at that time. However, she had an excellent memory, which played a role in this situation.

This jade pendant's original owner was a wealthy collector who cared little for money. Scarlett had no choice but to ask Katherine to trade a painting for that jade pendant with him.

Scarlett thought it was hopeless, for Katherine had not mentioned this matter to her for a long time. To her surprise, the collector agreed.

Clair had no other interests except collecting jade. A few years ago, he had his eye on this jade pendant, but he had a history with that collector, who refused to give it to him anyway.

And Scarlett remembered that Clair had lost his temper over this matter.

Hearing Scarlett's words, Clair was surprised. He tried to think about it for a while before he remembered it and then exclaimed, "I'm surprised you remembered that. Anyway, thanks a lot." "I'm glad you enjoy it." "I'll keep it well. Thanks again for your present, Scarlett." Clair carefully put the jade pendant back, and Scarlett could tell he was fascinated by jade.

Then, it was tto receive guests. Clair gave the jade pendant to his secretory and looked at Scarlett," Would you like to accompanyto receive guests?" Scarlett raised her eyebrows, wondering what he was thinking.

In principle, the person who accompanied Clair to receive the guests should be a member of the Anderson family or Henry's girlfriend at worst.

But Scarlett was just a junior who had hit it off with Clair, and they had only met a few times. Anyway, she was not the right one to accompany Clair to greet guests.

Clair, of course, knew what Scarlett was thinking and chuckled, "Don't tellyou're afraid of gossip, Miss Suny. Don't worry. If someone talks nonsense, I'll kick him out right away. Con!" He actually planned that even if Scarlett could not be his daughter-in-law, he would treat her as his own daughter.

Clair was an excellent judge of people. He could see that Scarlett, outwardly indifferent, was reliable.

If Scarlett could also treat him as her father, she would never let his life's work go down the drain.

Scarlett could not guess what Clair really thought, and all she could guess was that he was probably doing it t o repel public suspicions.

Although Clair himself acknowledged Scarlett's excellence that day, snetizens didn't believe that, claiming that Henry had asked Clair to say so! In the masses’ eyes, these things of rich and powerful families were somewhat false.

Since Clair put it that way, Scarlett couldn't very well turn him down.

Many guests had arrived, and Scarlett walked into the elevator arm in arm with Clair.

Clair was something of a legend. Since his wife's death, he had focused on Naland Real Estate and never had an affair with any woman.

Arguably, he was a spoony.

Clair's handsfacial features were reflected on the elevator wall. Although he was sixty years old, he looked in his forties or fifties.

'Ding-dong', the elevator opened. Knowing it was Clair, the guests quieted down consciously.

Seeing Scarlet next to Clair, the guests’ expressions varied.
