his was the first time Clayton had been treated so well. He was surprised by that, the doctors here handled him with a good attitude. He exhaled after all the examinations done on him were completed. "Will there be more to check, Otto?" He looked at Otto, who was beside him. "Nothing, Master. You just need to wait for the results and get treatment afterward." Clayton nodded his head, he would have believed it if he came from the wealthy Arnould family. A doctor soon approached them, he carried many reports in his hands, and a friendly smile was evident. "Sir Otto, we have completed the examination and only need to administer more tests. For now, we will give Sir Clayton medicine to help him recover faster." Clayton nodded his head. The examination business was over, he went out for a walk in the hospital while Otto was busy taking care of many matters related to Clayton. He didn't realize until he was on the ground floor that someone was holding Clayton's shoulder. When h
Hearing Clayton's words, the man did not accept. He became angry because now he felt he was being demeaned by Clayton. "I have been working here for 5 years. Of course I know people who are actually poor and only come here to satisfy their curiosity." He gyrated his waist in front of Clayton, arrogant. "I know that you definitely won't buy anything. Poor people like you are only used to looking around and fantasizing about being rich. Even though you're not capable of it at all." The salesman named Erick emphasized his words. After serving many people who came into this jewellery store, he was a senior. "Senior Erick, shouldn't we behave like that to a customer? This gentleman could have bought jewellery here." The young lady who welcomed Clayton spoke with some hesitation in her voice, she held her hands together and said politely. But the words said by Evony were very unwelcome to Erick. The man gave Evony a stern look and pointed at her. "You're so stupid that's why you'
Clayton came. He had bought a gift for Ahren, but when he came home, he had not seen his wife and was instead greeted by Elle, who was so excited about what Clayton had brought. "Don't tell me you're still a useless son-in-law. Did you get a job? Tell me what job you got." Elle immediately prevented him with many questions because Otto, at that time, picked him up by saying he would cooperate, Clayton, of course, couldn't avoid this conversation. "Mom, I got my job. I'll be managing a small company." Clayton had prepared an answer that Elle might want. The woman's eyes widened as she ruffled her waist before Clayton. For other people being a leader in a company was a strong thing, but for Elle Astor, it was not satisfying because it was only a small company. Even other family members ran big companies, and many men she wanted to match Ahren with had more than one business. She waved a hand in front of Clayton with a condescending look. "Damn, I had believed that you would be quit
The following day, an unexpected guest arrives at Elle's house, which is smaller than hers. His arrival was due to the anger he felt. Early in the morning, he went straight to the house by very rudely opening the door by slamming it. He didn't care what the owner of the house thought. "Damn it! Where is that damn man!" Chris shouted, startling Elle and Ahren, who was in the living room. The two women immediately stood up and approached Chris, a more prosperous man with more business than them. Chris's parents had inherited a large portion of the Astor family. That was rumored to be because Daniel's will had not been notified. "Why are you getting angry here? This is my house, and you should keep your manners to your aunt." Elle was slightly offended by what her niece had done, but she was still an old lady from the Astor family. "I have business with Clayton, that insolent man embarrassed me yesterday." Chris was fierce when he spoke, he clasped his hands so tightly that the
"I didn't buy you a fake necklace and I can show you that I bought a real one, Mom." Clayton was still defending himself. To be honest, he was a little surprised by the necklace still held by Elle, he assumed that the necklace had been thrown away by the woman, but now even his mother-in-law showed him the necklace again. It made his mind more positive because Elle may check for herself whether the chain was real or fake. "You're really crazy. You hit your head besides losing your memory, you're also very weak in thinking?" Elle shouted. She shook the necklace she was holding, and the light reflected off the little gem on the chain. And it caught Chris's attention even more. "You should get your head examined but you don't have any money so you can't get your useless head examined. You often embarrass me and if others hear that this necklace is real and you bought it at a fantastic price, they will all point at you as crazy, then it will all turn around on us, me and Ahren will
The shocked Ahren, who had just been told by Clayton, was shocked, previously, the man had always tried to restrain himself from discussing much of what her family said. Now he seemed much bolder than before. Elle and Chris looked at him with piercing eyes, the hatred was getting bigger on them, and Chris came forward, touched Clayton's shoulder, and pushed him. "If I am a useless man then you are even more useless. It's just like you to say that ugly sentence from your worthless mouth." Chris still continued to stare at him with piercing eyes, being humiliated by a person who was worthless and had no ability whatsoever, he felt his pride being trampled on by Clayton. He had to stay above Clayton and show that he was great. Coming from the Astor family, he deserved to be honored. "You would have been a hobo if it wasn't for my grandfather, and now you have the nerve to talk so much. It's embarrassing, it's very embarrassing." Chris shouted loudly from earlier, he was still pu
Ahren walked into the room, at this moment she felt that her husband often did something that made her, but this time, it was even worse. "Don't you want to listen to what I have to say?" Ahren looked at Clayton with a stern look in her eyes. "You're the one who doesn't want to listen to what I have to say, Ahren. You don't believe me, that what I'm giving you has great value. How about we go to that place so you can believe it?" Ahren felt dizzy with what Clayton said, but in the end, she nodded. "Alright since I'm in for the day today I'll accompany you to the place where you bought it, but don't expect me to be fooled by you. If it is a Counterfeit, of course. It will just be a counterfeit, Clayton." Clayton smiled; his wife was not a woman who ignored him too much; her strict attitude was often done to protect Clayton, who was the one Daniel cared about the most, what Ahren wanted was that Clayton could protect himself and act to prove himself. Clayton immediately change
Her heart was beating so fast that she was surprised to hear a familiar voice. It was the voice of her sister-in-law, the woman who had red hair and a sadistic smile when she was married to Elle's brother; she often tried to organize everything, which made the two of them often conflicted. "Elle, you're here to buy jewelry huh?" she spoke with a sly-looking smile, she looked at Elle, knowing all along that Elle was the poorest of the Astor family. Elle rarely owned jewelry. She couldn't keep up with the world of sociality that Flori followed. She looked at Elle for emphasis. "I-I don't-" "Right, Aunt Flori, we came here to buy some jewelry." Clayton, who knew about what Flori was doing, now spoke casually; he replied to Flori's words, which upset Flori. She then smiled wider this way, she could embarrass her sister-in-law even more. Meanwhile, what Clayton said immediately made Elle and Ahren, who heard it glare at him, Clayton's words were evil and could make them worse. "
