The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1656

Every pastry on the tiered stand looked like a work of art.

"You two look like you're just here for afternoon tea."

Logan had been running around all night and was absolutely exhausted.

Claire observed him quietly. This guy was incredibly ambitious. It made sense why he had rushed over the moment he discovered her connection to Dewitt.

"Sit down and have something to eat. You look dead on your feet," Dane said bluntly.

Logan nodded. He hadn't eaten a single thing all night, surviving only on a few sips of water.

Caleb had already brought a plate of food over.

Coffee was a lifesaver right now.

And these pastries—while grown men usually didn't have much of a sweet tooth, they were perfectly fine when you desperately needed calories.

Besides, Logan didn't even know which bakery had supplied the dessert spread, but the taste was surprisingly good.

He had asked Caleb about it in passing, not expecting Caleb to actually pay attention to the details. After Caleb explained, Logan finally turned his attention to Claire.

"What do you think of everything, Claire?"

"Are you asking about the jewelry show or the desserts?" Claire countered.

Logan glanced at Dane. He wasn't sure if Dane had already briefed Claire on his true motives.

"Both, I suppose."

Claire took a small bite of a pink cherry blossom mousse.

"The food is genuinely fantastic."

"And the jewelry is stunning."

Claire's praise was sincere.

Logan, however, offered a bitter smile. "I poured everything I had into this event, showcasing the absolute best our company has to offer."

"But our raw material procurement has been a nightmare lately. High-end jade and gemstones are incredibly scarce right now."

"I just took over the company, and I refuse to throw in the towel this easily."

"Finding a reliable supplier for premium raw materials is nearly impossible right now."
