Chapter 347: Do You Want Suzanne to Take Your Place?
“I’ve been part of the Felix family since I was seven. It’s always been me at your side, fulfilling your need for familial affection and accompanying you through those lonely years. And it’s only me who will be there to care for you in your old age!” Sasha Felix’s voice grew increasingly agitated, her tremulous tone ringing with anger in Joseph Felix’s ears.
Joseph Felix’s icy gaze slowly opened and turned towards Sasha Felix, his emotionless stare making her anger seem almost laughable. “Heh… Jinxiu, if even your own mother can be used by you, how can I dare hope for you to care for me in my old age?”
Sasha Felix’s face flushed with embarrassment at his retort, indicating Joseph Felix knew the truth behind that incident. Any defense from Sasha now would only highlight her malicious and heartless
nature.
Seeing the thick sarcasm in Joseph Felix’s eyes, Sasha let out a breath, her once rigid posture slumping. “Heh…” she laughed coldly, almost mockingly, “So, she’s in your hands now? Everything before was just a play you put on for me.”
“Not at all.” Joseph Felix shot her a cold glance and shook off her hand, striding towards the stairs. “You simply know nothing about the affairs between men and women.”
That night, he was too drunk to be conscious, let alone capable of such an act. Sasha’s little scheme could only deceive herself.
Watching his retreating figure, Sasha bit her lip, frustrated. She had invested so much to get to this point. Where did she go wrong? “Dad!” She shouted after him, not caring whether he stopped or turned
back, “Have you ever really seen me as your daughter?”
The figure ahead paused momentarily. Wind Wolf, following behind, also stopped, frowning slightly at Sasha’s words. He looked at the figure ahead, his lips twitching slightly, but ultimately he remained silent.
The figure resumed walking after a minute of silence, leaving without a word.
Meanwhile, Claire Donovan, Sean Vanderbilt, Julia Sanders, and Frederick Vanderbilt left the venue and headed backstage, where one of their key contributors was. The start and end of the show were the busiest times backstage, but fortunately, most front–row models had already left, making the area

Claire’s eyes scanned the room and finally settled on a familiar figure. She walked over and
playfully tapped on the shoulder, “Where’s Suzanne?”
The person turned, lazily pointing towards the changing room, “Changing clothes.”
Julia Sanders particularly loved Suzanne Jenkins in that dress, which had dazzled everyone today.
Hearing that Suzanne was changing out of it, she seemed displeased. “Why change? Isn’t there a press
interview soon? It would look so good to wear that dress, especially since Suzanne is also attending
the auction tonight.”
Cassie Palmer’s eyes twitched irritably as she stared at Claire Donovan, “So, you’re saying you don’t
want to do the interview? You want Suzanne to take your place?”
“Oh, don’t look at me like that,” Claire Donovan replied with a smile, turning Cassie’s head back and casually placing her hand on her shoulder. “Today, Suzanne’s performance was flawless, and this jewelry show has had a huge impact. I want to take this opportunity to solidify Suzanne’s foothold in
Southeast Asia. It’s free publicity, too good to miss.”
Her reasoning seemed entirely for the sake of Suzanne Jenkins‘ acting career, but only Cassie Palmer knew that Claire Donovan simply preferred not to be in the limelight. However, Claire was right:
having Suzanne Jenkins handle the interview would tie her fame directly to Sinclaire Jewelry.
potentially making a big splash across Southeast Asia.
So, Cassie Palmer just curled her lips and said no more.
While they were talking, Suzanne Jenkins changed out of her runway gown into a simpler dress. Even in this attire, her beauty and captivating curves were perfectly highlighted. Claire Donovan looked at
her approvingly, “Yes, very good, perfect!”
Suzanne Jenkins walked over with a puzzled look, frowning at Claire Donovan, “Shouldn’t you be
preparing for the interview now?”
Claire Donovan chuckled and, taking Suzanne’s arm, led her towards the interview area. She playfully pushed Suzanne onto the stage, “You’re the one doing the interview!”
After steadying herself, Suzanne looked back to see everyone smiling at her. Understanding the situation, she didn’t resist. Stepping forward, she exuded the charisma of a seasoned actress.

After steadying herself, Suzanne looked back to see everyone smiling at her. Understanding the situation, she didn’t resist. Stepping forward, she exuded the charisma of a seasoned actress.
Claire Donovan and her group watched from the side, with Julia Sanders occasionally giving Suzanne enthusiastic thumbs up. Indeed, handling interviews was a task best left to a veteran actress like
Suzanne Jenkins.
Claire Donovan had always trusted her. From their first encounter, she knew Suzanne Jenkins was a smart woman, her intelligence subtly revealed through details rather than overt displays.
As they watched Suzanne handle the interview with ease, steady footsteps approached from behind.
Claire Donovan didn’t pay much attention due to the crowd, but suddenly, a hand gently tapped her
shoulder, and a deep male voice sounded, “Claire.”
At the sound, Claire’s back tensed, and she shrugged off the hand with annoyance. Turning around, he
dark brown eyes looked impatiently at the man, “Mr. Felix of the Felix family. I’m quite busy.”
As Claire finished speaking, Sean Vanderbilt and Julia Sanders also turned, their expressions not too
friendly towards Joseph Felix. They could see that Joseph Felix genuinely wanted to mend his
relationship with Claire, but his past actions had understandably upset her. Being on Claire’s side.
