The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1150

"Thanks for looking out for me," Cyrus shot back, his patience entirely evaporated. "But my love life doesn't need a peanut gallery."

Lily's face turned stormy. The guy was completely ungrateful.

Cyrus couldn't care less about their hurt feelings; he just needed them to shut up and walk away.

He was terrified that Claire would lose her temper and ruin his carefully laid plans.

But unfortunately for him, Claire wanted him gone just as badly.

"Cyrus, since we have an audience, why don't you explain exactly why you're so obsessed with me?"

"Let's clear the air and tell everyone where this sudden, baffling infatuation came from."

Claire's icy, deadpan expression was genuinely intimidating.

Cyrus stammered, frantically searching for an excuse, flatly refusing to confess the truth.

He stubbornly jutted out his chin and insisted he just had a massive crush on her.

"Are you actually crushing on me, or are you just trying to seduce me into dumping my fiancé so Latonia can swoop in and take him?"

Claire ruthlessly ripped the mask off his entire operation.

She had spent days racking her brain, trying to figure out why a guy who knew she was happily engaged would suddenly turn into a relentless stalker.

It wasn't until Yolande and Sophia sat her down and analyzed his sinister motives that the pieces clicked into place.

Claire was thoroughly disgusted.

A devoted brother willing to prostitute his own romantic life to secure his sister's happiness—how touching.

Unfortunately, Claire had zero interest in being a sacrificial lamb for someone else's fairy tale.

She wasn't even madly in love with Dane, but the second someone actively tried to steal what was hers, her territorial instincts flared.

If Latonia wanted Dane, she should have the spine to pursue him herself.

Sending her brother to act as a honey-trap was pathetic.

Claire loathed the Franklin siblings. Her natural rebelliousness flared hot, instantly solidifying her resolve to marry Dane just to spite them.

Let them cry about it.

The sheer magnitude of Claire's revelation sent a shockwave through the cafeteria.
