I Married the President

Chapter 620: Chapter 620: Does This Make Things Difficult for You All?

Claire Sinclair glanced at him and asked mysteriously, ”You want to know?”

Theo Rhodes nodded earnestly. ”Desperately!”

Claire Sinclair smiled, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, ”From now on, whatever you do, don’t cross Bonnie Yates. If you do, not even I can save you.”

A chill shot down Theo Rhodes’s spine, and he nodded repeatedly. ”I get it, I get it.”

With a faint smile, Claire Sinclair walked out of the office.

Theo Rhodes’s eyes darted around, and he muttered under his breath, ”This world is insane... What an unlikely group...”

「The next day was Friday.」

Claire Sinclair woke up bright and early and took a half-day off from work to go see Ivy Tanner.

When she entered Ivy Tanner’s room, she found Ivy rummaging through drawers and cabinets, looking for something.

Seeing her come in, Ivy immediately ran to close the door and pleaded, ”Sister Claire, I only have my ID card! The household register is at the Tanner Family home. What do I do?”

Claire Sinclair paused for a moment before suggesting, ”I’ll go with you to get it.”

Ivy looked worried. ”But I don’t think they’ll give it to me.”

Claire Sinclair gave a faint smile. ”I’ll just say I’m taking you to get a passport. That way, we’ll have the option to travel abroad together.”

”Oh, right! Why didn’t I think of that?”

”Come on, we need to hurry.”

”Okay!” Ivy nodded.

The two left The Golden Brocade Palace and went straight to the old Tanner family estate.

When Claire Sinclair appeared in the Tanner family’s courtyard with Ivy, nearly every family member and servant at home came out to stare, as if they’d never seen anything like it.

Countless pairs of strange eyes stared at the two young women, and some even began to whisper:

”Why is the Third Miss Tanner with Claire Sinclair? They’re such a strange pair.”

”Could she be here to investigate those matters?”

”Shh! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Keep your voice down!”

...

Claire Sinclair’s icy gaze swept over them, and the whispering servants immediately fell silent.

Since the two had arrived so early, the men of the Tanner family—aside from a few retirees—had already left for work, leaving only a group of idle women at home.

By seniority, Ivy’s aunt, Mrs. Carson, should have been the one to take charge. But she had a naturally meek personality and was incapable of managing the family’s affairs. Consequently, her eldest daughter—Ivy’s cousin, Felicity Tanner—had become the de facto head of the household.

Felicity Tanner walked up to them, her gaze completely ignoring Ivy and landing directly on Claire. ”Miss Sinclair, what can I do for you?”

”I’m taking the Third Miss Tanner on an overseas trip,” Claire said evenly. ”She needs a passport, and for that, I’ll require the household register with her name on it. Please bring it to me.”

What?!

’Claire Sinclair wants to take an idiot traveling abroad??’

Everyone stared at Claire Sinclair in disbelief, finding the idea incredible.

In their eyes, Claire Sinclair was no ordinary woman. With the backing of two major powerhouses—the Astoria Daily and Quincy Manor—her influence rivaled that of Ethan Kingsley himself. She could do whatever she wanted, wherever she went. It was no exaggeration to call her the most formidable woman in all of Aridia.

’How did that retard Ivy manage to get involved with such a formidable woman?’

Seeing that no one was moving, Claire’s expression soured. ”What? Is this so difficult for all of you?”

”Not at all! I’ll go find it right now!” Felicity immediately turned and headed upstairs. She had learned her lesson with Claire the last time and didn’t dare cross her again.

After a long wait, Felicity finally came downstairs, holding the household register.

Claire Sinclair took the household register and checked it. After confirming Ivy’s name was on the document, she turned to leave.

Once they were in the car, Claire handed the household register to Ivy. ”Here, hold on to this.”
