Private detective services don’t come cheap.

An advance payment of thirty thousand is required.

An additional one hundred thousand will be paid upon successful completion of the job.

After paying the deposit, Claire started examining the vice credit card’s statement.

Ignorance was bliss.

Knowing the truth made Claire tremble with rage.

Small transactions ranging from ten to one hundred thousand were too numerous to count.

A few larger transactions were also present.

Only after investigating further did she realize.

Six years ago, Benjamin Martin bought his mistress a million-dollar BMW.

Five years ago, Benjamin Martin took out sixty million to buy a villa for his mistress.

Recently, there was another expense of three million dollars.

It was used to buy a house in Flower Mount City.

Claire immediately ordered to inquire about the house in Flower Mount.

She got a response quickly.

The house in Flower Mount accommodated a family of four.

They are parents, a son, and a daughter-in-law.

The elderly couple also had a daughter living in Capital City.

The person on the phone said, “The homeowner told me his daughter bought the house. She is very accomplished; I heard she’s found a wealthy man in Capital City.”

Playing the mistress!

Indeed, she is very capable.

Claire squinted her eyes and asked, “What is their daughter’s name?”

“I think it’s Kay Hutchinson. Double Kay, like ice and snow.”

“Okay.”

Now with a lead, Claire started investigating Kay Hutchinson.

Kay Hutchinson, born in a small town, aimed high, striving to rise above the masses, met Benjamin Martin eight years ago.

Seven years ago, their daughter was born.

Upon seeing this, Claire laughed out loud.

Turns out, they were together eight years ago, and now they even have a son and a daughter.

Thinking of how Benjamin Martin just had sex with Claire and was all lovey-dovey with his mistress, Claire ran to the restroom, dry retching.

After throwing up, Claire took a deep breath and freshened up with cold water.

She couldn’t fall apart now.

She had to stay strong.

She must make the scumbag and his mistress face retribution.

Back in the office, Claire started dealing with several days of piled-up work.

She had devoted most of her time these days to fulfilling the responsibilities of a mother, paying little attention to company affairs, focusing on raising the child.

She valued the illegitimate child more than her own life.

It was late at night when she finished her work.

Claire stood by the floor-to-ceiling window for a while before driving home.

As soon as she got into the car, Benjamin Martin’s call came, “Claire, are you still busy?”

The sound of a baby crying could be heard in the background.

“Don’t cry, baby.”

If it had been any other day, Claire would have been touched by Benjamin Martin’s daddy duties.

But today, disgust was all she felt.

Benjamin Martin was really good at appealing to her emotions.

Regardless of her disgust, Claire pretended as if nothing had happened and asked nervously, “Benjamin, is the baby crying?”

“It’s okay, you go ahead with your work, I can handle this,” Benjamin replied. “Babies are like this. They miss their mother at night. But it’s the same with a father like me at their side.”

“Then I should rush back!” said Claire.

A look of satisfaction flashed across Benjamin’s eyes.

He knew Claire would say this.

“Claire, nothing is more important than work. I’m here with the baby, and I will take care of him. I will be as good as you, his mother.”

“Thank you for your hard work, Benjamin.”

“We are husband and wife. This is what I should do.”

Fighting the urge to vomit, Claire hung up.

On the other side, Benjamin handed the baby to Mrs. Martin, “Mom, she will be back soon.”

“Really?” Mrs. Martin was somewhat incredulous.

Benjamin laughed, “Of course! Don’t you trust your son’s abilities?”

No one knew better than Benjamin how much Claire loved him.

Claire had risked upsetting many friends to be with him.

Even if Claire knew about his infidelity, she wouldn’t divorce him. She would only blame Kay Hutchinson, because Claire couldn’t live without him.

He was Claire’s world!

Mrs. Martin added, “That hen that doesn’t lay eggs, today she told me she’s handling the transition process. Once it’s done, she will hand over the company to you, and then she will take care of the child at home!”

Upon hearing this, Benjamin was not surprised.

He had known all along that Claire would give him the company.
