Chapter 176 I Don’t Care In the car, Eileen looked out of the window and asked worriedly, “Mr. Lamont, if Ms. Lloyd regrets and wants to continue the competition, I can withdraw so as not to damage your relationship.” “I have nothing to do with her,” Edmond said in a very cold voice. “Since she withdrew from the competition herself, let’s just let her have her way and drive.” The atmosphere in the car was a bit awkward. The assistant stepped on the accelerator, and the car slowly drove away. Edmond pursed his lips, wondering what he was thinking. Inside the car, the lighting was dim. Eileen glanced out of the window, a slight smile playing on her lips. *** Wellfort, Hawk Heights. As Claudia stepped out of the elevator, she saw a person squatting at the entrance. Seeing Claudia, Horace quickly looked up and stood up with a face full of joy, saying, “You’re here, I’ve been waiting for you…” When Horace saw the person behind Claudia, his voice abruptly stopped. “Ms. Lloyd, is this the place?” asked the movers, holding suitcases and bags, pointing to the door behind Horace. 0.00% 18:21 < Chapter 1761 Don’t Care 40 Vouchers Claudia nodded. Horace quickly said, “Don’t move yet.” He said to the movers of the moving company, “Sorry, please wait for me for five minutes.” After speaking, he walked up to Claudia with a pleading expression on his face, “Can you give me five

minutes of your time? There’s something I would like to ask for your help with.” Claudia remained silent for a few seconds, seeing him standing there at a loss, and finally nodded, “Let’s go inside and talk.” The two people entered the house and, in order to avoid suspicion, did not close the door. Horace paced in the living room, anxiously asking, “Did you voluntarily withdraw from the competition?” Claudia shook her head, “I did not withdraw.” “And you…” Horace suddenly realized, “was it Edmond who forced you to quit?” In everyone’s eyes, Eileen’s chances of winning were indeed much higher than Claudia’s, after all, Eileen had experience while Claudia was just a newcomer. Although it was uncertain whether it was Edmond or not, judging from his attitude… Claudia smiled bitterly. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

She had already had a falling out with Edmond that day, and it made sense for Edmond to not let her participate in the competition. 13.54% < 18:21 As for the matter of Eileen, it became intriguing in the blink of an eye. Thinking of Edmond’s indifferent attitude, Claudia clenched her fist: “He also has his own considerations…” “That Eileen was supposed to represent our company in the competition, but she withdrew citing illness, and before we knew it, she went to Edmond’s place…” Horace paused, his tone heavy. “I guess Eileen wanted to quit and join the Lamont Group from the beginning. Our company participated in this competition for my grandmother, who loves jewelry design. When she found out about this, she got so angry that she fell ill.” At the thought that this was Eileen’s scheme, Claudia couldn’t help but sneer inwardly. She also knew that this was Eileen’s scheme, but Edmond might not be

unaware. Thinking about how she couldn’t do anything to Eileen now, Claudia felt a pang of pain in her chest. “I know you like jewelry design, and I have prepared a lot for this competition. I came here this time to ask if you are interested in representing the Ferguson family in the competition,” Horace said. He quickly added, “We don’t care about the ranking, I just want to give my grandmother something to look forward to.” Claudia raised her eyebrows, her mind suddenly stirred. If Eileen had just obtained the ranking like this, she would definitely be unwilling. I wanted Eileen to learn a lesson, and this competition was a good opportunity for that. “If I competed on behalf of your family, Edmond would probably be 28.16% ||| 18.21 Chapter 176 I Don’t Care furious,” Claudia said, her lips curling up and her eyes sparkling like blossoming flowers. Horace’s heart ski pped a beat, and his lips cracked open, revealing two playful tiger teeth: “Do you care about his thoughts?” “I didn’t care.” He didn’t care about her thoughts, so how could she care about his? “Okay, I will participate in this competition,” Claudia’s lips curled slightly upwards, and her eyes curved at the corners. “Don’t worry, I will work hard to achieve a good ranking for your family. Even if I can’t win the bread, I will fight for our dignity.” She could imagine that once this matter was exposed, it would become a topic of conversation among everyone after meals. Fortunately, after enduring the storm for many days, she had developed a resilient and strong heart. “Are you willing?” Horace stood up in surprise, gripping her hand excitedly. “Thank you, now I can explain to my grandmother.”

Claudia broke free from his grip and instinctively took a step back. Horace’s hand paused, awkwardly placed on the back of his head, as he stammered, “Yes, yes, I’m sorry, I got too excited.” “It’s okay,” Claudia was also startled by her own reaction. Perhaps it was a reaction to pregnancy, she didn’t want the opposite sex to get too close to her. “By the way, don’t move out, remember you said you wanted to buy this house? I’ll give you a 50% discount, consider it as your reward for the competition, okay?” 46.66% ||| O r 18:21 He had originally wanted to say that the entire house was a reward, but he knew that if he gave it to her directly, she would definitely refuse again. Hesitating for a moment upon hearing that he was willing to sell it to her at half price, Claudia eventually nodded. This is better than giving it to her directly. She took advantage, so she should repay with a good position. After Horace left, an unexpected guest arrived at the house. Claudia had just finished washing up, wearing her pajamas and slippers, she walked to the door. In the cat’s eyes, there stood Eileen, dressed in a cheongsam, with a graceful posture. Eileen heard footsteps behind the door and waved with a smile through the peephole, saying, “Ms. Lloyd, I’m sorry to disturb you so late. I’ve come to pick up something.” Take something? Claudia raised her eyebrows, placed her hand on the doorknob, and casually turned it as if nothing had happened.

Outside the door, Eileen’s face lit up with a big smile. “Ms. Lloyd, earlier you took a box of jewelry from Mr. Lamont. Now that you no longer have the qualification for the competition, shouldn’t you return these things?” Eileen smiled sincerely, her mind wandering in a thousand different directions, yet not a hint of it showed on her face. She knew that Claudia and Edmond had made a bet, and since Claudia 64.36% ||| 18.21 Chapter 176 I Don’t Care 40 Vouchers was no longer representing the Lamont Group in the competition, the jewelry sponsored by Edmond should be returned. I didn’t expect him to come and take this thing. Claudia smiled, her sparkling eyes shimmering like stars under the lights, “Did Edmond send you?” The voice was cold and clear, like a light veil brushing over an ice cellar, both cold and not repulsive. Eileen’s heart ski pped a beat as she looked into her beautiful eyes, her gaze dropping and concealing the jealousy within. “It’s so late and I’m making you come to pick up things, it’s really hard for you.” Claudia smiled, charming and alluring, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. She turned around and picked up a box from the coffee table. Seeing such a big box, Eileen’s eyes lit up. So many! According to the information she found, many things here are antiques and rare items, which would be sna tched up like crazy if they were auctioned off. Eileen was extremely excited.

Just as she was about to reach out her hand to catch it, Claudia turned around and placed the box on the shoe cabinet. “Sorry, my own jewelry got mixed in too,” Claudia chuckled, a hint of apology flashing in her beautiful eyes. “Why don’t you call Edmond 80.92% O 18:21 < Chapter 176 I Don’t Care 40 Vouchers now and ask how many things are in the box?” “Don’t worry, even if he doesn’t remember, the person who made the purchase will definitely remember.” Upon hearing these words, Eileen’s face turned pale instantly. Did you call Edmond? Edmond had no idea how she made the phone call. This Claudia… Did she discover something?
