Chapter 64 Future In–Laws
Claire pursed her lips in a cold chuckle and did not say a single word as she
waited for Evelyn to leave.
The moment Evelyn vanished from view, Robert started throwing his weight around again.
“You must be dumbfounded, Claire. Hahaha! Do you think you are all that just because you’re now the chairman of Solstice Industries? Surprised, right? Evelyn Vanderbilt is the second largest shareholder of the company, and she is my future in–law!”
In Silverton, everyone and their mom wanted to be connected to Evelyn in some way because the moment they knew her, it was equivalent to being connected to the Morgans and the Vanderbilts.
It was certainly something that Robert could boast about for the rest of his
life.
Claire licked her lips and tilted her head to ask in an extremely innocent voice, “Didn’t Clarissa just dump Xander? Why would Evelyn be your future
in–law?”
“Dumped him?” Robert’s eyes bulged with confusion. “When did Clarissa break up with Xander? Stop spreading false rumors, Claire!”
“You didn’t know?”
Claire shrugged and kindly reminded him, “Didn’t Evelyn just say Xander is in the hospital? Apparently, he was so devastated about being dumped that he knelt in front of Mr. Sean’s pate for the whole of vesterday. It rained

The increasingly lost look in Robert’s eyes made her chuckle. “Ha! It looks
like you really don’t know. You just went along with Evelyn’s plan without knowing a single fact of the situation. Who knows, you might end up helping
her even after she sold you out!”
Robert truly did not know anything about the breakup. He had noticed Clarissa sulking the entire day, but she refused to tell him anything. Perhaps it really was because she had broken up with Xander.
How could this be?
With such a major event happening in the family, he was no longer in the mood to drink and celebrate with Amos, Charles, and the others. He had to hunt
Clarissa down and get a clear answer now.
“Amos, Charles, I have something urgent I need to attend to. I’ll treat you guys to lunch another day,” he said.
Amos and Charles did not mind missing dining with Robert, so they both nodded and told him to go.
Without saying another word, Robert dashed out the door while his hands scrambled through his pockets for his phone.
Clarissa and Alice soon received a phone call from Robert. He sounded so serious over the phone that they immediately hurried home.
Alice and Clarissa arrived home soon after Robert did.

When the two women saw the ferocious glare on Robert’s face, they exchange
glances with each other before cautiously approaching him.
Robert snapped his head around to glare at Clarissa as he coldly demanded, “Did you break up with Xander?”
Clarissa froze in shock at first before she nonchalantly sat down on the couch. “I was wondering what the major issue was you wanted to talk about, Dad. Is that all? Your glare had me thinking the world was ending.”
Alice smiled as well and leisurely settled down next to Robert. “Oh, Robert, Evelyn kicked Xander out of the family. She even told him to marry into our family instead. Why shouldn’t Clarissa break up with a useless man like that? Did you expect her to keep him around?”
“Absolute nonsense!”
Robert’s roar had both women shrinking back in fear. After glaring at Clarissa, he turned to glare at Alice before slamming his hands down on the coffee
table.
The coffee table shook as a loud bang echoed through the air. Alice’s and Clarissa’s hearts trembled with the coffee table.
With a hand over her heart, Clarissa shrieked, “What are you doing, Dad? I just broke up with Xander. Is that the end of the world? Why are you so angry?”
“She’s right,” Alice added. She had been so frightened that her heart was still quivering in fear and had to repeatedly pat her chest with one hand. “Robert, we are family. Speak properly if there’s something you want to say.
