Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Family Gathering
It doesn’t feel like the holiday has arrived. Since Claudia interrogated Harris about his relationship with Vivian, Claudia was still trying to believe what Harris said at that ti. Today Claudia and Harry had to return to the Harperwood family residence to attend a simple al hosted by the host.
Claudia’s appearance today is quite simple, wearing a knee-length pink dress complented by a white vest. Claudia rembered that she first wore this dress when Harry asked Taylor to design a dress that suited her character. She felt increasingly grateful to have Harry who always gave her sincere love. Even though until now Harry had never said the word love openly.
"I thought you were good at wearing anything that wasn’t too flashy," said Harry, wearing one of the expensive watches in his collection.
Claudia blushed, looked at the mirror while polishing her lips using pink lipstick. "I really like all the dresses you bought that ti."
"I also love seeing you wear all the dresses I ca up with."
"By the way, your father suddenly held a al like this. For what purpose?"
"Who knows. What’s certain is that we’ll see. Maybe because we haven’t been ho for a long ti. Even though he is a stepfather, he must at least miss his stepson a little."

Upon arrival at the Harperwood family residence, Harry and Claudia were greeted respectfully by all the bodyguards and household assistants in the house as if they had not been ho for years. Harry felt that this kind of welco was excessive because in fact he sotis had to return ho every ti his father called him or he had to take various equipnt to carry out secret missions. Besides, he also ca back here when he wanted to interrogate Edward.
In the dining room, the atmosphere was quite awkward because the house owner still hadn’t said a word. Claudia was quite used to dealing with this kind of atmosphere when she was engaged to Harris and Harry.
"By the way Harry, how are you?" Rosiana asked with a worried look.
Harry didn’t expect his stepmother to suddenly ask for news, even though up until now he had always considered her just a stepson who had to be looked after because he didn’t have a mother.
"I’m fine, Mom."
"Actually, I was the one who ca up with the idea of ????inviting you to eat with the family. Ever since you were involved in an accident last week, I’ve been really worried about you."
" too, Harry. "That’s why I agree with your mother’s opinion in inviting you to eat with your family," added Roger with a face full of pity.
"Luckily Claudia saved you in ti, if she had saved you late, we wouldn’t have been able to see you this second." Rosiana’s eyes fell on Claudia. "Thank you for saving our son, Claudia."
"Of course I must have saved Harry because I was the one who caused Harry harm at that ti. Harry fell to save ." Claudia looked at her husband with eyes full of love. "I’m even more grateful to marry Harry."
"But, until now we are still having difficulty finding the perpetrator who damaged the yacht’s sail. We have mobilized all reliable people in the investigation, but have not brought any good news until now."
Harry held his wife’s right hand with a confident look. "The matter of finding the perpetrator, I can do it myself. "There’s no need to be arrested any ti soon, the most important thing is that I can still breathe with Claudia right now."
"If we find a clue regarding the perpetrator, we will imdiately report it to you," said Roger.
Actually, Harry was curious why his adoptive parents’ attitude suddenly changed so drastically. Previously always considered him invisible, whereas now he treated him as if he were a biological son. Is there a aning behind that kindness? As usual, he doesn’t get carried away easily just because of the special treatnt he is currently receiving.

After eating with his family, Harry actually wanted to do other activities at this residence. He invited Harris to take a walk around the garden of this luxurious residence. anwhile, Claudia was briefly called by her mother-in-law because her mother-in-law wanted to discuss sothing important.
Harry’s patience had run out at the innocent look on Harry’s face. He quickened his pace then blocked Harris’s path.
"What are you doing?" asked Harris lazily.
"You’re still pretending you don’t feel guilty after what you’ve done all this ti."
Harris folded his hands. "anwhile, you are also playing at stealing my fiancé without my consent. "Actually, I want to fight with you just because you are very selfish, but I don’t want to act childish just because of one woman."
On the other hand, Claudia had just finished talking with her mother-in-law, she was looking for her husband in the garden of this luxurious residence. When she saw her husband talking seriously with Harris, she imdiately hid behind the bushes to eavesdrop on the two brothers’ conversation.
"I’m sure you’ve never truly loved Claudia all this ti. "You’ve only been using her all this ti," quipped Harry.
"At least I’m much better than you who have been torturing her all this ti and using her for your benefit. I know that the wedding you guys are having is just a fake wedding."
With a confident look, Harry grabbed Harris by the collar of his shirt. "I never played with Claudia’s heart. From the start, Claudia was the only one who managed to keep
alive. She succeeded in creating a new Chapter in my life so that I beca more confident in surviving for him."
"Is it true? Didn’t you once insinuate that she was a useless and arrogant woman in front of you?"
"I said that on purpose so that I wouldn’t be tempted to snatch it from you. Even though I’m actually very reluctant to say it. In fact, what I said at that ti was inversely proportional to what was in my heart."
Harris laughed slyly as he pushed Harry’s body. "You hypocrite! You always act perfect in front of the two won you love."
Harry snorted in annoyance and this ti he wanted to say sothing straight to express his pent-up anger. "It’s better for
to act like that, than for you to sleep with Vivian several tis until she gets pregnant! At that ti, you were already dating Claudia!"
