The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1479

Claire hadn't sensed any imminent danger.

After all, she wasn't a trained professional.

But Hillary was.

She immediately sensed that someone was watching her and Claire.

It was exactly as Hanson had warned; these people saw Claire as their ultimate prize and would not let her slip away easily.

Without breaking her stride, Hillary walked Claire back to her apartment.

Once inside, they began to analyze the day.

"Did anyone deliberately try to get close to you today?"

Claire shook her head, then remembered something. "There was Professor Vance's daughter. I checked, she's who she claims to be."

"Why did she approach you?" Even if Claire had cleared her, Hillary still had to ask.

She needed to evaluate the threat level with professional scrutiny.

There couldn't be a single oversight.

If anything happened to Claire, the fallout would be catastrophic for everyone.

As her personal bodyguard, Hillary would be the first one to face the firing squad.

Failing to detect a threat was her ultimate dereliction of duty!

"It wasn't really an approach. She just chatted with us about some campus gossip."

Claire relayed the entire encounter to Hillary.

Hearing the drama surrounding Norris, Hillary wasn't surprised in the slightest. "Your cousin is still as cold as ice to women, I see."

"Hillary, you know Norris?"

Hillary nodded. "Your cousin was a massive celebrity on campus back in the day. Even I..."

Hillary actually blushed, a rare sight.

Everyone had their youthful phases, right?

"Oh, I get it. We all crushed on the popular kids in middle and high school. Anyone who gave speeches, performed on stage, or hosted events had a massive fan club!"

Claire was nothing if not empathetic.

With a smooth redirection of logic, Hillary was instantly downgraded to a harmless fangirl.
