Chapter 26 Change of plan

Claire stormed back into her office; her expensive bags tossed haphazardly onto the couch. Her jaw clenched, and her hands balled into fists as she marched to her desk, glaring out of the window with simmering anger. It was clear to anyone who saw her that Claire was seething.

"All I wanted was a peaceful breakfast, but Alex just had to ruin it," Claire muttered to herself, the frustration evident in her voice.

Being accused of something beneath her level felt like a personal insult, hitting a nerve deep within her pride.

As Claire stood there, a flicker of determination crossed her mind.

She grabbed her bag from the couch and swiftly extracted her phone, removing the SIM card from her other phone and snapping it in hall. She wasn't about to let Alex track her movements or monitor her communications.

Seated at her desk, Claire opened her laptop. She meticulously deleted her email. With her hacking skill, she also hacked into her email to ensure that Alex's private investigator couldn't find any digital breadcrumbs leading back to her. It was as if the email had never existed, a digital vanishing act orchestrated by Claire's sharp mind.

Claire was too caught up in her own problem about Robert and the company that it slips from her mind to throw anything that related to Alexander Harris.

As she leaned back at her chair, her secretary, Sandra, entered the office, breaking the silence.

"Good morning, Ms. Peterson. I have your schedule for today."

Claire nodded, gesturing for Sandra to continue as she composed herself.

"Your meeting at 1pm, has been canceled and will be rescheduled," Sandra informed her, glancing at Claire for any reaction

"That's fine," Claire replied briskly, her mind already shifting gears to accommodate the change.

Sandra continued, "You also have a meeting scheduled with Team D regarding the Cortex 2.0 project later today.
