The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1823

"I've already left the country. I just wanted to call and thank you and Norris for helping me the other night."

"If it weren't for you two, I don't know if I would have made it onto my flight."

Claire had been so overwhelmed with her own chaos lately that she hadn't given Fannie a second thought.

She knew Fannie was brilliant. If she was bold enough to declare war on Julian Quincy, she definitely had a backup plan.

That was why she hadn't checked in.

More importantly, if Norris wasn't keeping tabs on Fannie, Claire's concern wouldn't mean much anyway.

"You did all the heavy lifting, Fannie. You're much stronger and more capable than anyone gives you credit for."

A normal person facing that kind of workplace harassment would have crumbled, but Fannie had plotted a ruthless mutual destruction.

Taking the international route would be grueling, but if she succeeded, she could easily transition into a high-level government career.

Even if she didn't, her career prospects would skyrocket.

So underestimating Fannie was a mistake; she was a master strategist.

"Julian met a brutal end. I gathered some evidence, sure, but I could never have pulled off a takedown like that."

"Someone definitely helped me."

With that, Claire instantly understood.

Fannie was trying to figure out if Norris was the one pulling the strings.

"Sounds like you have a guardian angel. Want me to poke around and see what I can find?"

Fannie smiled knowingly, thinking that Claire was the real angel.

Claire had perfectly read between the lines.

She really hoped it was Norris, but if it wasn't, she wouldn't let it crush her.

After all, she had never truly expected him to return her feelings.
