053 To reveal the Truth of the Matter
"You? Ruin my reputation?" Alice felt Claire thought so highly of herself. "You know that there are a lot of reporters who likes to create trouble from nothing. If you want to ruin my reputation, I'm afraid that I will make you suffer even more."
"Oh, you're really not going to return it, are you?" Claire knew that she is at a disadvantage.
"That's right!" Alice looked proud.
"Alright. Then, I can only go and find Dempsey. I must tell him that the person who slept with him five years ago was me and not you, Alice." The moment Claire said those words, the weight of those words nearly crushed Alice.
When Claire went to Dempsey's villa last time, she talked about Alice situation with him. She suspected that Dempsey had something to do with Alice's popularity. She only had a slight idea off what Alice was afraaid of. Earlier, she only said those words because she had been provoked, unexpectedly, Alice limply sat down on the sofa. Her face is as pale as a ghost's. Seeing her expression, Claire knew that she had struck Alice's weakness. She continued to speak, "The reason why Dempsey left no effort to praise you is definitely not because you are prettier than others. There are many women in the entertainment circle who are prettier than you, but why is it that you are the only one who is favored by him? Besides, you became famous about the same time I left the country five years ago, and it makes me think of what happened that night."
"Claire, don't speak nonsense! How would you know that Dempsey and I have not slept together? Weren't you unconscious that night? How do you know that it was Dempsey who slept with you?" After Alice recovered from her shock, she slowly calmed down.
Claire curled her lips, "When we were halfway done, I woke up and saw his face. Moreover, before he left, he left behind his suit jacket and wrist watch. Why else would he leave these things? Perhaps, he has other purpose, like to thank me for saving him that night."
"Why would he want you to save him? HHow ridiculous! It's getting more and more absurd the more you talk about it!" Alice didn't want to admit it even if she is to be beaten to death. That night, the woman that slept with Dempsey was indeed Claire, and she really hoped that it was her instead.
"Because I felt that Dempsey was not in his right mind. Like he was drugged." When she woke up the next day, she only saw the man's wristwatch, it was expensive-looking, something that could definitely not be bought in retail stores. Of course she no longer need to doubt him, as her children are the proof of what happened, and Dempsey has proactively compared their DNA's.
Alice finally understood why Dempsey slept with Claire all those years ago. He was actually inebriated. How couldd Claire's karma be so good? She had been schemed hal to death, but she was still able to be laid by a perfect and outstanding man like Dempsey?
Alice was so angry that she clenched her fists tightly, "What exactly do you want?"
"Return the jade to me, and give me an additional fifty million. And I'll gladly leave for abroad. I will definitely not contact you or Dempsey." Claire also had her own plans and she regretted her returrn this time. She didn't expect that the day after returning, the twin's father would come knocking at her door, and now, he wants to take away her children. Of course, she had to think of a way to leave quickly.
"You... Is that true? Will you really leave at once? I will only need to give you fifty million and retuurn that piece of jade?" Alice thought that Claire would definitely go and tell Dempsey the truth. She was scared to death, but Claire's words still shocked her.
Of course, Claire wants too flee abroad. As long as she had the money to raise the twins, she would never come back to this place. "Yes, I will immediately leave this place, live abroad, and never disturb you and Dempsey."
With her woman's intuition, Claire felt that Alice loves Dempsey. When they were at the restaurant, she tried so hard to attract Dempsey's attention, making Claire suddenly feel pity for her. Dempsey obviously showed no interest in her. She was only doing a one-man show.
"Claire, don't lie to me. As you have seen, Dempsey is so perfect and outstanding. As a woman, how can you resist his charms? Tell me honestly, are you trying to cheat me of my money?" Alice could not believe that Claire could turn a blind-eye at Dempsey's charisma.
Claire smirked with disdain, and said with ridicule, "Alice, do I have to like the man you like? Dempsey looks very ordinary to me, and I don't find him attractive. Even if you give him to me for free, I won't want it."
This was the first time Alice has heard someone give such a terrible response of Dempsey. Suddenly, she wondered if there is something wrong wih Claire's head, "Is this really your true thoughts? If I find out that you took my money and have all sorts of communication or desires to hook up with him, I won't let you go!" Alice looked at Claire's serious and determined expression, and could only believe her words, but she was still a little suspicious.
"Don't worry. I don't want to see the man ever again in my entire life. I hate him."
Alice was stunned again. "Why do you hate him?" Alice was getting more and more curious. As long as Claire did not fight her over Dempsey, her hostility towards her would be reduced.
"It's because he hurt me five years ago. I, as a person, hate him. I will never forgive anyone who hurt me in this life." Claire's beautifful eyes were filled with resentment as she spoke with indignities.
"Do you think being laid by Dempsey is a very shameful thing? Claire, I realised that you are really a little ridiculous. Do you know how many women wants to sleep with him?" If what Claire said is true, Alice would really admire her.
