The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 13

Claire’s heart was still thumping excitedly when she exited Wilson Group's office.

Grandma would officially announce her new position tomorrow. Finally, she could hold her head up high!

She turned to Charlie and said gleefully, "Charlie, thank you! If it's not for your encouragement, I wouldn't have dared to step up and take the challenge."

Charlie replied with a smile, "Dear, you deserve this."

He turned his head away, then turned back to her and said, "Oh yes, it’s such a great and happy event. Let's celebrate, shall we?"

Claire nodded. "How do you want to do it?"

"Our third anniversary is around the corner, let's celebrate it together! I'll prepare everything, you just have to sit back and relax."

Claire gaped in surprise. "Are you going to surprise m e?"

"Yes!" Charlie nodded and laughed. "I'm giving you a surprise!"

Claire felt a dash of warmth surging her heart. "Okay, I won't ask you for any details then." "You don't have to, just wait!" Charlie had several plans lining up for the preparation of a special and exclusive wedding anniversary.

Generally, compensation was the main objective. After all, he was very poor previously and he didn't have the money to buy presents for his wife. In fact, he couldn’t even afford a formal wedding for her. Now that he was loaded, he wanted to compensate her earnestly.

After splitting with his wife, Charlie went to a jewelry store called Emerald Court in the center of Aurous Hill alone.

Emerald Court was the most popular jewelry store in town.

They had gold, platinum, diamonds, jade, and all sorts of gemstones and accessories that one could dream o f. You name it, they’ve got it.

Charlie wanted to buy a gift for his wife before heading to the best hotel in town to book a venue for their belated wedding.

When he walked into the stores, the sales personnel didn't bother to entertain him when they saw him wearing four-striped-a.k.a. counterfeit-Adidas sneakers.

Regardless, Charlie looked around by himself for a long while until he saw a jade necklace locked in the glass cabinet.

The necklace was made of the most exclusive icy jadeite. It was very elegant and exquisite, a perfect match for Claire’s aura.

He peeked at the price tag-thirteen million-which was a piece of cake for him.

He ushered for one of the sales personnel and said, "H i, please take this necklace out, I'd like to have a look."

The person glanced at him indifferently and muttered, "I don't have the key, it's with our manager." Then, he spoke through the intercom and said, "Miss Wolfe, there's a guy here who wants to see our most prized possession!"

Very soon, a very enchanting woman with a very thick makeup sprinted to the storefront enthusiastically. Her name was Jane Wolfe and she was the sales manager at the store.

"Which prestigious guest wants to see our prized collection?"

The personnel pointed to Charlie and said, "This man over here."

"Huh?" Jane shifted her gaze at Charlie and expressed a disgusted look as if she had just eaten a fly.

How could this deadbeat loser afford the most prized treasure of the shop?

She turned to the male sales personnel and said, "Hey, Gill, you're kidding me, right?”

"No, it's true, this gentleman wants to see the necklace.”

Jane chided rudely, "Are you telling me that this loser can afford the necklace? Are you blind? If you're blind, tell me so I can fire you right this instant and stop being annoyed!"

Jane thought that she could very accurately read people after years of working experience.
