Chapter 74
Alfie had just finished a meeting when Gerry, who was standing nearby, hesitated to speak,
He looked tired and cold but still asked, “What is it?”
“Ms. Blake wants to see you, Mr. Guzman,” Gerry said.
“I don’t want to see him,” Alfie said.
The mention of “Claire brought an inexplicable sense of disgust to Alfie.
When he woke up yesterday morning and saw Claire lying naked next to him, his first reaction wasn’t guilt but disgust.
He had never felt such intense disgust towards anyone before. Looking at Claire lying beside him, he regretted he had dumped Moira for her
tup.
It was the first time he had no shred of pity for Claire. Even when she cried and apologized yesterday, all he wanted was for her to shut u
In fact, he did make her shut up. He looked at her with coldness and disdain for the first time, telling her to leave.
The affair between him and Claire had been exposed online with a video and a few photos at noon yesterday
Everyone know about it.
A day had passed, and Alfie didn’t even have the courage to call Moira and explain.
Alfie didn’t even have an explanation.
And now Claire dared to come and see him.
‘Is she asking for trouble? Alfie thought.
Gerry hesitated for a moment. This was the first time Alfie had refused to see Claire,
But he didn’t dare to ask anything. The news from yesterday went viral, and Alfie’s expression hadn’t improved since then..
Since Alfie didn’t want to see her, then so be it. “Alright, Mr. Guzman,” Gerry said, knowing what to do.
Gerry left the office and intended to have someone quickly take Claire away.
However, as he took a few steps, Alfie suddenly changed his mind and said, “Bring her to my office
Gerry paused and said, “Alright, Mr. Guzman.”
Alfie returned to his office in annoyance. He didn’t want to see Claire, but he was more afraid that Claire would go to Moira and cause trouble.
Soon, Gerry brought Claire in
Claire said, “Allie, I’m sorry, I know I shouldn’t have come to see you, but I really have no other choice.”
Claire
e burst into tears as soon as she entered, making Gerry very embarrassed. He quickly turned and left, closing the dear behind him.
Alfie looked at Claire’s pale face, but he didn’t have feelings for her anymore.
Now he realized that every time Claire faced im, she always put on this pitiful look.
Moira had once said that Claire was just pretending to be pitiful in front of him, but he had never believed it

When he thought of this, Allie’s expression turned even colder. “What’s the matter? Just say it. Crying won’t solve anything”
Alfie didn’t comfort her like he used to. Claire stiffened, unsure whether to continue crying or not.
She looked at Alfie’s cold demeanor and finally wiped away her tears, handing him the termination letters. “Alfie, I really don’t know what to do. I didn’t mean to pressure you, I just… just can’t come up with so much compensation. I came here today to ask you for a loan,” Claire said.
She looked ashamed, and then lowered her head, not daring to look at Alfie
Alfie took the termination letters from her hand, glanced at them briefly, and asked, “How much do you need?”
“4 million dollars.”
Claire’s heart leaped with joy, and she quickly looked up at Alfie, hoping for his approval.
Alfic lit a cigarette and said, “I’ll give you 6 million dollars, but I have a condition.” Claire had a bad premonition. “What condition?”
“Never appear in front of me and Moira again,” Alfie said.
Claire couldn’t believe her ears. “Why?”
She thought that after what happened, she would definitely become his wife.
But now Alfie wanted to drive her away.
Alfie took a drag of his cigarette and said, “There’s no why. If you agree, I’ll have my secretary transfer the money to you right away. If you don’t agree, then I can’t help you.”
He put away any hint of pity and looked at her with a shrewd and direct gaze.
Claire knew she had no choice.
