The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1339

"Then you get to enjoy the show."

Claire figured a girl as offensive as Rose would have plenty of people ready to kick her while she was down.

She didn't stay on the phone with Shirley for long, though.

That afternoon, Claire picked up some snacks and fresh fruit before Dane dropped her off at home.

She and her grandmother were staying at Hearth & Kettle.

Dane was technically staying there too, but his schedule was packed, so he left immediately after dropping her off.

Because of Old Randall's defective supplies, a massive chunk of the plumbing and wiring had to be ripped out and inspected.

It was an undeniable setback.

Dane had to personally oversee the crisis to ensure they met the original deadline.

Otherwise, he'd have hell to pay with the city council.

After getting home, Claire greeted her grandmother and went upstairs for a nap.

She slept straight through until past five.

Just as she was getting out of bed to ask her grandmother what was for dinner, her phone rang.

It was Meiko Fujii.

"Claire, it's Melanie."

Claire obviously recognized her voice.

But receiving a call from Melanie made Claire's expression tighten slightly.

"Melanie, is something wrong?"

"Well, it's like this... Are you back in your hometown right now, or are you in Cabinda?"

Melanie hadn't forgotten Claire mentioning she was heading home for the holidays.

"Yes, I'm back home."

"Why are you asking, Melanie?"

"Did your mentor actually travel to Solenia?"

Melanie had previously mentioned that although her mentor was Solenian, he had left the country heartbroken years ago and refused to return.

Given that history, Claire hadn't pushed the issue of him traveling to Solenia for treatment.

Sundara's medical infrastructure was top-tier, anyway.
