Luna Lyons frowned, surprised at her mother’s quick defeat in the verbal duel with Claire Donovan, whose sharp wit remained as formidable as ever. “Claire Donovan, still as sharp–tongued as ever, I see!”
Claire’s smile didn’t waver as she suddenly reached out towards Luna. Luna instinctively stepped back, her eyes wary as she scrutinized Claire. Claire’s smile deepened as she stepped forward and slapped Luna’s shoulder playfully. “Why dodge? It’s just a pat. I’ve actually missed you!”
Although Claire’s touch was light, Luna felt it sting. She glared fiercely at Claire, clearly unable to maintain composure around her enemy. She brushed off Claire’s hand and wiped her shoulder as if it was tainted, her eyes flashing with venom. “Back off! Don’t touch me! You think you’ve won once and you can gloat? Let me tell you, I’m here to represent Qin Shi Jewelry, and with my popularity, forget about stealing the spotlight at the jewelry exhibition!”
Claire’s heart sank; she hadn’t anticipated Mia Ashworth bringing Luna as their brand ambassador. She had thought bringing Suzanne Jenkins for Sinclaire Jewelry was a trump card, unaware Mia had a similar plan.
Watching Claire’s frown, Luna’s confidence soared. Her lips curled in arrogance, hands crossed over her chest, radiating a sense of superiority. “I know you’ve got Suzanne Jenkins, but she’s just a domestic actress. How many here would recognize her?”
Her smirk widened, “But I have a place in both European and American circles. In terms of fame, can Suzanne Jenkins really compete with me?”
Claire’s laughter intensified, her eyes mocking as she stared at Luna, her derision unmasked. “You said it yourself – you’re famous in the West. But this is Southeast Asia. How many here know you?”
Cassie Palmer burst out laughing next to Claire, not sparing Luna any dignity. Luna’s face turned from anger to pale, struggling to find a retort but failing. Her awkwardness was embarrassingly obvious.
Mia Ashworth shook her head in resignation. It seemed neither she nor her daughter could match Claire in verbal sparring. “Luna,” she softly patted Luna’s shoulder, calming the rising storm within her. Luna turned, lips pressed tightly, brows twisted in frustration.

Mia Ashworth sneered, her eyes fixed harshly on Claire Donovan. “Claire Donovan, there’s no point in
his verbal sparring here. Let’s see the real deal at the auction!”
he final outcome would be determined at the auction; the highest bid would reveal the true winner,
egardless of their current squabble.
Claire, noncommittal, shrugged and moved on to pay at the checkout, ignoring them. Watching Claire’s etreating figure, Luna clenched her fists at her sides. “Mom! I don’t care! This time, I must make
Claire Donovan pay!”
She sought more than just a victory at the auction; she wanted Claire to suffer.
Mia only smiled, then casually tossed a box of xylitol into their cart, her seemingly offhand remark aden with malice. “Don’t worry, dear, I won’t let her off easy.”
Claire didn’t let Cassie pay, swiftly using her card first. Cassie felt the hostile glares on her
back and frowned, “Claire, I think Mia Ashworth and Luna Lyons are no easy opponents. We need to t
careful.”
Those who had reached their level of success were all cunning. Claire had long known the likes of Mia, Luna, and Sasha Felix were formidable adversaries.
“Right.” Claire nodded.
After paying. Claire handed two bags to Cassie and carried the rest herself. Before leaving, she glanced back at Mia and Luna. The two hadn’t moved far and met Claire’s gaze.
Mia gave Claire a forced smile, while Luna made a thumbs–down gesture at Claire, clearly challenging. Claire responded with a cold smirk and left with Cassie.
Back at the hotel, the joy of snacking on their haul enveloped them. The three women sat on the bed, each clutching a bag of snacks, watching TV and munching away.
