The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 773

"Sweetheart, what do you think of our Hunter?"

Beatrice reached out to grab Claire's hand, but Claire swiftly dodged her.

Dane stepped seamlessly in front of Claire. "What do you think you're doing?"

"What's your problem, young man? Why are you blocking me? I was just trying to have a chat with the girl. It's not like I'm going to hit her!"

Beatrice scowled at Dane's protective stance.

She had already decided to set Claire up with her son; she absolutely wasn't going to tolerate another man hovering around.

"If I didn't step in, you would have put your hands on her," Dane replied with a cold smirk. "She has nothing to do with you. Keep your hands to yourself."

Beatrice bristled indignantly. "So what if I grabbed her? I only reached out because I like her! And what exactly is your relationship with her that gives you the right to act like her bodyguard?"

Dane saw right through Beatrice's malicious intentions and didn't mince words. "Unfortunately for you, I'm her fiancé."

*How does someone so young already have a fiancé?*

*Did my golden goose just fly away?*

Beatrice refused to accept it. "Even if you are her fiancé, you don't get to control her like that."

"The poor girl hasn't even said a word yet."

Claire poked her head out from behind Dane. "Ma'am, whatever my fiancé says, goes."

"If you have something to say, just say it from over there. I don't like being touched by strangers."

*What do you mean, 'strangers'? I'm your future mother-in-law!*

Beatrice screamed internally.

"I just think you're a lovely girl, and you're around the same age as my son. Why don't you two exchange numbers and get to know each other?"

Claire stared at the woman in sheer disbelief. "Do you have any idea what you're saying right now?"

The bystanders in the hallway were equally stunned.

The girl literally had a fiancé standing right in front of her, and this woman had the audacity to suggest she was a match for her delinquent son?

With her son looking like a cheap street punk, how on earth could he ever be worthy of Karla's niece?
