Falling into Her Trap: Don't Cross the Line, Mr. President-Chapter 147: To Growing Old Together and Having Children Soon

Owen suddenly thought of the years Claire was with him. Claire didn’t want to meet his friends, since she never really cared about that relationship.

No, to be precise, it was his one-sided love for Claire. Claire never loved him from beginning to end.

She’s a cold-hearted woman; Owen understood that long ago.

But he thought that if Claire doesn’t love him, she won’t love anyone else either.

Ethan Blackwood was obviously the exception; he unlocked a completely different side of Claire.

While Owen was still pondering, Ethan had already let go of Claire, and his gaze fell on Owen’s face. Although there was a smile on his lips, his eyes hid a cold glint, "What do you think, Owen?"

Owen felt a chill run down his spine under that gaze; Ethan’s presence was indeed too overpowering!

He replied nervously, "Good, she looks good."

Ethan’s fingertips brushed over Claire’s neck, "But why did I hear that someone called Ms. Shaw poor and lowly?"

Beside them, Yvonne Crawford’s face changed drastically. As expected, Ethan didn’t come for dinner; he came to support Claire.

If she had known earlier that Claire was his girlfriend, why did she make that foolish comment?

Although Elliot Blackwood is older and in his second marriage, for Yvonne, marrying into the Blackwood Family was already a leap in social standing.

Now that she hadn’t even settled into her position, she’d offended the future head of the Blackwood Family, making her feel very troubled.

With Ethan’s status and personality, he certainly wouldn’t bring this matter to the table.

Yet he not only came today but also deliberately brought it up, forcing the Crawford Family to show their attitude.

"Nonsense, Ms. Shaw is fair-skinned, beautiful, with long legs. Even I, as a woman, am envious. Whoever said such irresponsible things must be blind."

Yvonne looked at Owen, "Isn’t that right?"

Owen knew Yvonne was deliberately belittling him to appease Ethan, but he was helpless. He could only say, "Yes, that person must be overestimating themselves to say something like that."

Claire watched the man with his head lowered. Is this the benefit of power?

After Owen had repeatedly belittled her under the guise of power, he was now the one humbled beneath it.

Elliot Blackwood also sensed that something was off. Just as he was about to speak, the butler came over in time to smooth things over.

"Sir, Madam, dinner is ready."

Yvonne quickly got up, affectionately taking Claire’s arm, "If Ms. Shaw marries into the family, we’ll be sisters. From now on, I’ll call you sister. I don’t know what you like to eat, so I just prepared a little bit of everything."

"Thank you for the thought." Claire remained aloof.

Though there were only five people for dinner, the table was covered with dozens of dishes, showing how much they valued tonight’s dinner.

What they didn’t expect was that the key person tonight had already been thoroughly offended. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Ethan’s face gave nothing away, but Owen knew well.

This was an apology dinner, and if it wasn’t done right, it would be over for the Crawford Family.

So, he was the first to pour a glass of white wine, "I’m glad my uncle graced us with his presence today; this one’s for you."

Ethan played with the wine glass in his hand, a smile tugging at his lips. He directly looked into Owen’s eyes, "Today I’m here with your aunt; if you want to toast, it should be for us to grow old together and have many children."
