**+25 Bonus**
The weight of Claire’s words, coupled with her affectionate display towards her new boyfriend, hit Victor like a thunderclap, leaving him reeling as if he had received a life-altering sentence.
“Why am I even here?” Victor’s voice dripped with bitterness as he shot a venomous glare at Cecil. “Claire and her boyfriend are practically glued together. Thanks for making me the punchline of this joke, Mr. McKay, but I’m done. I’m leaving.”
With that, he turned on his heel, heading for the exit, his heart pounding in frustration.
Cecil, sensing the gravity of the situation, shuddered visibly, desperation creeping into his voice. “No, wait! Mr. Blanc, please don’t rush off! This is all a terrible misunderstanding! We had no idea Claire was seeing someone new. I swear!” he implored, his tone rising with urgency. “As for him… I can make them break up right now! Claire’s true partner can only be you!”
Charice, ever eager to chime in, interjected with fervor. “Exactly! That boyfriend of hers is just a pretty face, nothing more. He wouldn’t even think to buy my mother-in-law a decent gift! Just stay a little longer, and we’ll convince Claire to see sense and break up with him. We’ll make her realize that she belongs with you!”
Jack and Sandy quickly joined the fray, their eyes glinting with mischief. Their own plan for revenge was still in the works, and Victor was the tool they needed to execute it.
“Mr. Blanc, don’t let that nobody get to you! He’s got nothing—no power, no status, and certainly no wealth compared to you!” Jack asserted, his voice rising in fervor.
“Exactly! We’re all on your side, Mr. Blanc! That… that useless piece of trash doesn’t stand a chance against you! You’re the only one who truly deserves Claire!” Sandy added, a fierce determination in her eyes.
Victor halted abruptly, a cynical smile creeping onto his lips. “Oh, for the love of God, look at them. Do you really think you can tear those two lovebirds apart?”
“We have our methods, don’t worry!” Cecil declared, a glint of mischief in his eyes.
“Go ahead and try, Charice! I’m not afraid of any of you because I have Sebastian on my side!” Claire shot back defiantly, crossing her arms and standing her ground, her heart racing with adrenaline.
“Shameless little brat!” Jack bellowed, his anger boiling over. He looked poised to strike, the tension in the air thick enough to cut with a knife.
He yearned to unleash his fury. His parents were witnessing this confrontation. Victor was watching closely. Sebastian, who stood as Victor’s rival, was the one Jack assumed would side with him.
This was Jack’s moment to gain a sliver of Victor’s favor, a chance to tip the scales in his direction.
