Chapter 49 Unreasonable

Darren remained silent.He couldn't fathom what was wrong with himself now.He wanted to know Claire's relationships with the old man, Nathan, and the actor.

However, he also knew he had no right to question her now.

During work yesterday, Darren accidentally saw a piece of entertainment news that said Claire was very close to Miss Haylee Carter, whose family owned a leading media company.

Word had it that Miss Carter frequently changed her boyfriends.

The information made his stomach queasy.

Claire was not only involved with Nathan but also seemed to have a good relationship with an affluent woman like Haylee.She had managed to mingle with the upper class without the identity of "Mrs.Sampson".

The news was precisely why he came to see Claire today.He wanted to say he finally found out the Sampson family owed a lot to her.He had invested in the film to make it up to her.

Claire grew impatient as Darren sat there in silence, choosing the right words to say.

"What are you going to say? If you're going to say the same old thing, I'd better leave."

Claire stood up to leave.

However, Darren finally spoke.His words were different from what he wanted to say.

"I heard you are close to Haylee."

Claire sat down when she heard her best friend's name.

"So what?"

"Well, she doesn't seem to have a good reputation in the circle.You can make friends, but you can't be friends with someone like her."

Claire sneered at him.

"Don't you think you are being too nosy, Mr.Sampson? Besides, I vaguely remember you being close to Stuart Myers.As far as I know, he is not a good man."

Darren was at a loss for words.

"You'd better look at yourself before advising others.Don't you know this, Mr.Sampson?"

After a moment's silence, Darren crossed his hands on the table and took a deep breath.

"Okay, I don't have a say on whom you should be friends with."

He looked into Claire's eyes.

"After we got divorced, you left without getting any compensation.I feel bad about it.I'm a man of principles.Even if you don't want anything, I will give you the compensation you deserve."

"What bullshit!"

Claire snorted.

"If you think you owe me something, better leave my sight."

The last time she went to the Sampson family's house to get the bracelet, she told him she wished never to see him again.But Darren had ignored her words and invested in the film.

That didn't matter to Claire, but she hated to see him at the film set today.

Claire wondered if the Quantum Group had gone bankrupt.

Why else did he have the time to bother her?

"If you don't want to accept my compensation, consider it as a collaboration."

Darren looked at her intently.

"The Quantum Group is planning to enter the film and television industry.I'm doing business, and you're going to perform in the film.I'll make money, and you'll gain popularity.Your role seems insignificant in the film.I can invest more in it and ask the producer to change the script."

Claire finally understood his intentions.

Darren had assumed she wanted to become a popular actress.He wanted to offer her compensation, but she didn't accept it. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Therefore, he offered a deal that was beneficial for both.

Darren only wanted to find a way to achieve his goal, but didn't consider what she wanted.

Well, she wouldn't accept it.

She had no reason to get anything from him.

Claire sprang up to her feet and looked down at him.

"Look, my acting in the film has got nothing to do with you, so you better stop worrying about my career or what I do in life."

With that, she turned around and walked past the waiter.

The waiter stared at them with two cups of coffee.

His face flushed, and he didn't know whether to serve the coffee or not.

Darren was annoyed.

Just then, his phone rang.He picked it up and saw the caller ID.It was a call from Stuart.

"Mr.Sampson!"

Stuart cried as soon as the call connected.

"Prince charming! Is Sierra the love of your life?"

Darren's forehead creased with a frown.He couldn't help but wonder why Stuart asked such a question.
