The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1193

Tilda shot Dane an impressed thumbs-up.

His level of devotion was top-tier.

If anyone ever claimed Dane was a cold, unfeeling billionaire again,

She would personally drag them over to witness this lovesick display.

Aversion to women? Yeah, right.

He just hadn't met the woman who could bring him to his knees until now.

The way he looked at Claire was borderline worship.

A notoriously ruthless tycoon, perfectly willing to play the supportive husband.

Whether Dane would actually follow through on that promise remained to be seen.

For now, Tilda was just enjoying the show.

Claire and Dane both breathed a sigh of relief knowing Tilda already had a solid action plan.

Neither of them wanted to see Walden succumb to Alzheimer's.

With the heavy business out of the way, they shifted their focus to the food.

The restaurant's menu was mediocre at best.

But the three of them weren't overly picky.

They hadn't come for a five-star culinary experience, anyway.

Still, they barely touched their plates.

Claire ended up asking the waiter to box up the untouched food.

On the drive home, she handed the takeout boxes to a homeless man on the street corner.

The man thanked her profusely.

Dane made sure Claire got home safely before heading back to his own place.

His security detail trailed closely behind in a separate SUV.

Dane rarely ever rode shotgun, but with Claire behind the wheel, he thoroughly enjoyed the view.

The following day, Claire returned to her rigorous academic routine. The peaceful rhythm lasted for weeks, carrying her seamlessly into the winter break without a single piece of campus drama.
