Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 588

With that, he hung up the phone again.

"What does that jerk Seth even mean by that?" Claire asked, equally confused after Noreen recounted the conversation.

"What's this 'besides money, I have nothing else to give you' nonsense?"

"Did you ask him for anything else?"

"When you did need something else from him, did he give it to you?"

"He's insane!"

Noreen agreed. "I have no idea what's gotten into him."

Claire asked suspiciously, "You don't think he's planning to call off the wedding with Bitch Bianca and try to get back together with you, do you? Because I would lose all respect for him!"

Noreen scoffed. "You're overthinking it. In that respect, we're quite similar. Neither of us is the type to go back to our exes."

"Good!"

Claire knew Noreen's personality well. She would definitely find a way to pay Seth back that money.

So, she offered a sincere suggestion. "If he really won't take it, then when jerk Seth and Bitch Bianca get married, you can give it to them as a wedding gift!"

"It's satisfying and insulting at the same time. The perfect two-for-one deal!"

Claire felt like an absolute genius.

How could she have come up with such a perfect plan?

"I like it!" Noreen said.

…

Meanwhile.

When Bianca returned from her meeting with Henry, her expression was quite neutral.

As soon as she entered the house, everyone sitting there looked up at her.

Lillian couldn't wait to ask, "Well? Did Henry agree to the loan?"

"Not yet," Bianca replied.

"Has he called you?"

"He sent me a message. He said he still has some things to take care of overseas and will be back in a couple of days."

Lillian breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. As long as he hasn't said anything else and is still keeping you updated on his whereabouts like before, then everything should be fine."

The other two also relaxed.

After all, they had all seen with their own eyes how much Seth cared about Bianca.

So they didn't doubt her words.

Bianca took a sip of water, her eyes downcast.

No one noticed that the hand holding the glass had suddenly tightened.

Seth had not sent her any messages. She had gotten that information from his assistant.
