Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 855

He stood right where he was, watching Claire Chase walk into the pouring rain. He wanted to call out to her several times but knew her temper all too well. All he could do was watch her figure fade into the distance. Just as she was about to disappear from sight, Felix Quigley's expression suddenly changed. He bolted into the rain, sprinting toward the person who had collapsed on the ground.

Claire had a very long dream.

In it, she saw her mom and dad, whom she hadn't seen in a long time. She was just a little girl.

Her dad pulled out a beautiful set of diamond jewelry he had carefully prepared and gave it to her mom. Her mom was thrilled.

Young Claire loved it too and reached out to grab it, but her dad gently picked her up. 'This is a gift from Daddy to Mommy,' he told Young Claire. 'Sweetheart, you can't play with this. If you break it, Mommy will be mad.'

'Daddy, I want one too!' Young Claire loved shiny things.

Her dad tapped her nose affectionately and coaxed, 'When our sweetheart gets married, Daddy will give you a set too, okay?'

Young Claire pouted. 'Then I want to get married right now! Daddy, go find me a husband.'

The couple laughed at her. They finally appeased her with a piece of cake.

Young Claire happily walked out with her cake. When she reached the door, she turned around to say something to her mom, only to see her dad putting the necklace around her mom's neck.

She quietly slipped out of the room, skipping all the way to the garden. She planned to enjoy her delicious cake on the garden swing.

But someone had already taken the swing today—a pretty little boy.

She stared at him for a moment and couldn't help but ask, 'Will you be my husband?'

Her dad had said that when she got married, she would get pretty jewelry.
