The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1395

Owen had booked a private VIP lounge at Mistral Manor.

Claire knew the venue well. Since Owen had left for the office earlier, she drove up alone that evening.

Knowing she was heading to Mistral Manor, she took the sleek Panamera the family had gifted her.

She wasn't trying to show off; it was simply the standard uniform for navigating elite circles.

But the drive over wasn't without drama.

Some arrogant jerk, likely assuming she was an easy target because she was a woman in a luxury ride, aggressively tried to cut her off.

As if Claire would ever flinch at that.

She slammed the accelerator, whipping the steering wheel and surging toward his car with terrifying precision.

Her speed was blistering. Caught completely off guard, the driver had no time to dodge and nearly ate the guardrail before slamming on his brakes.

Claire tore past him, leaving nothing but a massive cloud of exhaust in her wake.

"Holy shit!"

The driver had just wanted to toy with her, completely unaware he had messed with a total savage.

Instead of having his fun, he got absolutely humiliated.

Claire arrived right on time. The VIP lounge already had a few guests inside.

Aside from Owen, Xavier Vance—the guy Owen used to butt heads with—was also lounging on the sofa.

And he hadn't come alone; he brought his fierce fiancée, Serena Wade.

Claire offered a warm greeting just as the heavy mahogany doors swung open again to admit two more men.

"I swear, karma is real," one of the newcomers laughed. "Some idiot from the Wade family tried to play chicken with a girl in a Panamera on the way up here."

"He ended up running himself off the road. Smashed his head on the steering wheel, and his cousin in the passenger seat is bruised up too."

Owen let out a harsh bark of laughter. "Serves him right. The Wade family has been acting entirely too arrogant lately, thinking they own the city just because of a potential political promotion."

Claire tilted her head. Owen clearly despised the Wade family.

"They tried to force their way into Luminate's cap table. I told them to get lost," Owen explained smoothly to her.
