Chapter 334: They Won’t Take Action
“Fred. Julia might be a bit brash, but she’s lively and extroverted. She may not be elegant or demure, but she’s clever and quite charming. At your age, to have a girl like her interested in you, you should be over the moon. Drop the act, Fred, and go for it.”
Frederick Vanderbilt’s eyelids twitched fiercely. He knew Sean was here to persuade him, but was thi really the way to convince someone? He shook his head, “Sean…”
Seeing the shake of his head, Sean’s expression darkened. “Of all our siblings, you’re the most worrisome. Mom and Dad are getting on in years. In any other family, they’d be enjoying their grandchildren by now. But they’re still concerned about you. Mom’s cried to me about it several
times. Can’t you just do this for her?”
Frederick rubbed his forehead, “Sean, can’t you just…”
“No!” Sean cut him off firmly. “If you can’t sort yourself out this time, I’m not planning on letting you go back. Maybe I’ll find a deserted island nearby and maroon you and Julia Sanders there.
Whatever happens next, it’s up to her.”
Frederick felt like he was being coerced into something he didn’t want. “Sean…”
Sean placed his wine glass down heavily and stood up, heading into the bathroom without another word
Frederick looked at the closed bathroom door and leaned back on the sofa, his head aching. Aren’t
matters of the heart supposed to progress naturally?
Separated into two rooms, the men and women retired early for the night, which passed peacefully.
The upcoming jewelry exhibition meant heightened security. The hotel where Claire Donovan and others
were staying was booked entirely by the organizers, who also handled all the necessary procedures. Tc
avoid any risks with a large crowd, the organizers, after careful consideration, decided to collect
the exhibited jewelry from each participant under heavy security.
This meant Claire Donovan didn’t have to run around; she just had to wait in her room for the
organizers‘ representatives to arrive.
Sean arrived early in the moming, and upon receiving notice, Claire had Sean assist Julia in their

The sound of uniform footsteps approached her door, signaling the arrival of the organizers on her
floor. Claire took a deep breath and waited calmly.
Half an hour later, the doorbell finally rang. She rose, a small smile on her lips, and opened the
door.
Despite expecting it. Claire’s heart skipped a beat at the sight of an entire corridor filled with top–tier security. Each guard was stone–faced and vigilant, guns in hand. She had no doubt that any attempt on the jewelry would be met with lethal force.
The two men at the door, seeing Claire’s astonished look, smiled reassuringly, “Don’t worry. This is just for the potential criminals. As long as no ill intentions are harbored, they won’t take
action.”
Claire nodded, withdrawing her gaze, and stepped aside to let them in.
The visitors were two representatives from the organizing committee, accompanied by a couple of security guards. Claire Donovan exhaled, handing over the well–prepared jewelry to the organizers. “This is from Sinclaire Jewelry. The documentation is in the folder.“”
As one of the men opened the jewelry box and the other checked the folder, both were visibly stunned.
“This is…”
Claire nodded with a smile, “Yes, it’s Sinclaire Jewelry’s entry for the exhibition. Please check the
documents, and if everything’s in order, I’ll hand it over to you.”
The men exchanged glances, clearly not expecting Claire to bring such a piece for the exhibition. Not to mention its gemstone’s value, the jewelry itself was bound to captivate the entire audience!
“Alright, let’s verify the details.”
After completing their checks, the men prepared to leave. However, one of them paused and turned back to Claire, extending a hand, “COCO, we’re honored to have you at the jewelry exhibition.”
Claire, seeing the offered hand, responded with a smile, her deep brown eyes turning into crescents. She extended her hand in a polite handshake, “The pleasure is mine.”

As Claire closed the door, the men outside, carrying the jewelry in a small safe, heaved a sigh of
relief. “Looks like I need to start raising funds. If we get this piece at auction, its value could
double!”
