Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 848

Claire gritted her teeth in anger.

But she had no choice but to go.

She didn't want any roadblocks at this critical juncture.

She was just one step away from the finish line. She would just have to tolerate it.

No point in arguing with a jerk.

Claire comforted and pep-talked herself the entire way there.

The Quigley Group was located in the most bustling commercial district of Northcrest, serving as a landmark for the city.

It was a magnificent building.

A popular check-in spot for countless tourists.

Yet, this was Claire's very first time here.

Even though she had been married to Felix for five years, she had never once set foot inside the company.

When she walked in, she explained her business to the receptionist but didn't mention she was Felix's wife.

After all, Felix had never made their marriage public.

The receptionist asked mechanically, "Do you have an appointment?"

"No," Claire replied.

Since Felix was the one who asked her to come, she figured it wasn't necessary.

The receptionist gave Claire a cold look and spoke haughtily, "Then please leave. You must have a prior appointment to see Mr. Quigley."

Claire was just about to explain that Felix had summoned her.

Suddenly, the arrogance vanished from the receptionist's face, instantly replaced by a sycophantic smile.

She even stepped out from behind the front desk to personally greet the new arrival, speaking with utmost respect. "Miss Lynwood! Are you here to bring soup for Mr. Quigley again? He is so lucky."

Claire didn't even need to turn around to know who it was.
