The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 822

Yet, others saw this as a golden opportunity. Earning the favor of a man like him was a guaranteed one-way ticket to unimaginable wealth.

However, rumors suggested he had zero interest in romance, with some whispering that he already had a fiancée who was significantly younger than him.

As Dane approached, several women looked ready to throw themselves at him. Claire noticed Amelia and Beatrice staring so hard their eyes were practically popping out of their heads.

The crowd watched in stunned silence as the devastatingly handsome man stopped right in front of Claire.

Amelia and Beatrice delusionally thought he was approaching them. Amelia even took a bold step forward, flashing her best smile. "Hi, I'm—"

Dane's icy gaze swept right past her, instantly softening with warmth the second it landed on Claire. "Are you finished?"

"Yeah." Claire covered her mouth as a delicate yawn escaped her. "I'm exhausted."

"You can sleep in the car."

Dane was heading back to Cabinda tonight, and since Claire was supposed to travel there as well, the Churchill family had specifically asked him to escort her.

Even though she was more than capable of handling herself, the Churchills still viewed her as a precious girl in need of protection.

Since he was making the trip anyway, taking his little fiancée along was a perfect arrangement. Naturally, Dane had zero objections.

They had worked out the logistics yesterday. Once the SUNNY event concluded, he would pick her up directly from the venue.

"Alright." Claire took a sluggish step toward him, her exhaustion causing her foot to slip on the polished marble.

Dane's strong arm shot out, catching her waist instantly.

She didn't resist his grip. Instead, she leaned into him, letting his solid frame support most of her weight. Glancing at the dumbfounded onlookers, she flashed a brilliant smile. "Let's go, Dane."
