The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1658

"Starlight Jewelry," Claire recalled the name, finding the situation amusing.

It was a classic, well-established brand with chain stores all over the country.

Lawler suddenly had an idea. "Do you have any plans after class this afternoon?"

"Don't tell me you want me to go jewelry shopping with you?"

It wasn't that she minded, but she was genuinely curious. Was this old bachelor finally showing interest in romance?

Lawler was notoriously more oblivious to dating than even Dane used to be.

"Yeah, I want to buy a gift for someone, but I'm just a clueless guy. I have no idea how to pick anything out."

"Your bracelet is beautiful, so your taste is definitely better than mine."

Claire was immediately intrigued. "Sure, but you have to tell me who it's for."

Lawler hesitated for a second. "A junior colleague of mine. She just got back from overseas."

"Her birthday is coming up, and since she just returned to the country, I thought I'd get her a gift."

"I really don't understand the kind of things you girls like."

Lawler gave her a pleading look. "Please help me out, Dr. Claire!"

Claire laughed. "No problem!"

The two of them were whispering when Barry overheard them.

"I want to go too!" Barry was the last person anyone expected to be interested in an outing like this.

Claire hadn't anticipated him inviting himself along at all.

Lawler, however, understood his mentor perfectly. "Mrs. Monroe's birthday is coming up soon. Are you planning to buy a gift for your wife, Professor?"

Barry smiled and nodded. "Your mentor's wife is always complaining that I'm unromantic. I figured I'd get her a gift early this year and make her happy."

"Whatever you get her, she'll definitely love it because it's from you."

Lawler meant it. Trixie Monroe was a woman who rarely demanded material things.
