When Sterling was little, she secretly gave him a hand more than once.

“Alice is her elder brother’s kid. She never got married, put her whole life into dancing, and basically raised Alice like her own.”

He paused for a second. “I barely even know Alice, and that was years back. This marriage idea is just her wishful thinking because she thinks our families get along. I respect Ms. Jensen, but she doesn’t get to decide my life.”

As for Daron, he had no idea when Alice started trying to get close to him.

“Alice only came back to Dracovia because someone in the Romero family pushed her to.”

Whoever planned it clearly knew about his connection to Alice’s aunt. With Alice hyping herself up, they assumed she’d get some kind of special treatment.

Too bad Sterling never even looked her way.

Claudia believed him without hesitation. Maybe it was because he always gave her a sense of security.

The Romeros were laughable. They were too cowardly to go against Sterling openly, so they sent Alice to make trouble instead.

What they didn’t expect was how fast Alice went down in flames.

She got

tossed out the moment she appeared.

Instead of driving a wedge between Sterling and Claudia, the whole thing just made them tighter.

“What’s Ms. Jensen’s full name?”

“Celine Jensen.”

Claudia’s eyes

widened.

Sterling’s eyes flickered. “You know her?”

She nodded. “If things hadn’t fallen apart back then, I might’ve ended up as her student.”

Before painting, Claudia had been a dancer.

Back then, Celine was the top dancer in all of Dracovia. Everyone in the field looked up to her.

Chapter 112 Celine Jensen

Claudia had once gotten a few tips from her, and Celine even hinted at taking her in as a student.

Plenty of others wanted the spot as well, including Lydia.

Celine planned to pick the best one as her last student. To keep it fair, she set up a public audition.

But Claudia injured her foot. It didn’t affect daily life, but it made serious training impossible. She had to give up dancing and missed the audition.

In the end, Celine didn’t pick anyone that year.

After Claudia dropped out, Lydia, who had the best chance, was crushed. The Lancasters even took her to Marindra to cheer her up.

Claudia eventually moved on and stopped regretting it. Still, hearing Celine’s name now left her a little dazed.

Sterling laced his fingers with hers. “So, if things had turned out differently, we might’ve met way earlier.”

Claudia smiled. “Guess so.”

It was wild to imagine how different their lives might’ve been if they’d met back then.

“I’ll take you to meet Ms. Jensen one day. But first, we should send a little gift to the person behind all this.”

He hadn’t even started his payback, yet the pests were already crawling out. It looked like life had been too easy for them.

At least now he didn’t have to wonder who his next target was.

He glanced at Claudia. “Are you scared?”

Claudia grinned. “I think I’m getting pretty good at crashing parties.”

They both laughed.

…

Sterling later brought Claudia to a charity auction.
