Chapter 262 You?

The next morning, Claire was feeling surprisingly chipper. She stood on the balcony of her penthouse, the morning sun warming her skin, a cup of tea in one hand and a bite of French toast in the other. Claire couldn’t remember the last time she had a peaceful breakfast like this. It was rare to have a morning all to herself, without the chaos of meetings and phone calls. She glanced at the view of the city, a smile tugging at her lips. “Not bad,” she muttered to herself, taking another sip of tea. “Not bad at all.” Her iPad was propped up on the table in front of her, emails open and waiting for her attention. As she scrolled through, her phone vibrated against the table, catching her attention. She picked it up, raising an eyebrow when she saw Alexander’s name flashing on the screen. “What does he want?” Claire wondered aloud, opening the message. The text was brief, just like Alexander. He wanted her to meet with Mr. Mateo Jones at 1 PM sharp, and he’d explain the details later.
