Chapter 50 Play Innocent
With a clang, the thermos in Claire’s hand fell to the ground too. The breakfast inside was knocked over and spilled all over the ground.
Melissa was baffled and thought, When did I push Claire?
She just fell to the ground herself.
“What’s the matter?” Murray heard the noise and walked out of the study.
As soon as Claire saw Murray, her face turned pale and her eyes burst out tears all of a sudden,
“Murray, Meli pushed me so hard. I’m hurt!”
It turned out that Claire deliberately fell to frame Melissa in front of Murray.
“Did I push you?” Melissa sneered.
Claire looked at Murray with a feeble, innocent, and considerate expression, “Murray, don’t blame Meli. Last time, it was Sarah who asked me to move Meli’s things to the maid’s room. It is Meli’s right to be angry with me.”
It seems that Claire is changing her style and starting to play innocent, the two-side bitch, Melissa thought
Claire called Melissa Meli, which made Melissa feel sick. Melissa sneered, “Don’t call me Meli. You can see me as your cousin-in-law if you want.”
Cousin-in-law? Claire felt jealousy in her heart.
However, she pretended to be innocent and harmless, “Meli, I know you hate me, but I’m living in their house. I don’t dare to disobey what Sarah asks me to do.”
Claire kept speaking, “Meli, I don’t want to do that. Meli, you can be angry with me. You can hit me, scold me, or push me down. But … this breakfast was made by Sarah herself for Murray to eat. Now you have knocked it over. How can I explain it to Sarah and Murray?”
“Claire, you are so good at acting. Why don’t you be an actor? The whole world owes you an Oscar award.” Melissa sneered calmly and looked coldly at Claire, who was putting on an act.
“Meli, what are you saying?” Claire acted as if being extremely wronged. She looked at Murray and said, “Murray, that was the breakfast Sarah made for you. She was afraid that you would be too tired from working, so she asked me to send it to you. Now, it has all been scattered by Meli…”
Before Claire could finish her speaking, Murray interrupted her impatiently, “Alright, Claire, do you think I am blind?”
“Murray, you…” Claire was stunned.
“I saw what happened just now. Melissa didn’t even touch you.” Murray frowned and said.
However, he did not see anything, but his intuition told him that Melissa was not such a bad person.
On contrary, Claire had learned about the scheme after staying with his mother all these years.
“I … Murray, it’s not the case…” Claire did not expect Murray would say that. He should not have seen it with his angle just now!
Murray interrupted Claire without hesitation and said in a low voice, “Don’t spend your time on these tricks. Spend more time on studying, okay?”
Seeing Claire with such a disbelief expression, Melissa praised Murray a lot in her heart but said indifferently, “Alright, since everything is clear, then I’m going to work now.”
After that, Melissa turned around and left.
Looking at Melissa’s back, Claire was discontented, “Murray, you know Sarah does not like her, why…”
“As long as Grandpa likes her.” Murray glanced at Claire coldly, “I hope this will be the last time. Don’t look for trouble with Melissa anymore, understand?”
“Just because of Grandpa?” Claire looked up at Murray and asked, “What about you, Murray? Do you like her?”
“It has nothing to do with you.” Murray narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
His cold and distant expression made Claire’s heart sink.
She hoped that Murray did not like Melissa at all and it was only because of his grandfather that he accepted Melissa as his fiancée.
But … just now, Murray looked at Melissa with a doting gaze.
