[Bonus chapter] Clark's Worries

"How can you be so sure? Sofia told me about the possible reaction that I get once we are in a relationship, Clark... It's---" Claire paused. A glint of shyness sparked on her expression for just a brief of seconds before she gathered her composure.

"Huh? Reactions? What did Sofia say?" Clark directly asked and looked at her in the eyes.

"Hmmn, Sofia reminded me that--- ehem! Your family is rich, Clark,  And I am just a commoner. So, I have to be cautious about money," Claire anxiously answered. Her eyes moved to look on the floor before she released a long sigh.

"Money is not an issue to my family, Claire. If you agree to make our relationship official, you don't need to be cautious about money. We have more than enough," Clark assured her. 

Joey and Stephen sat still and secretly listened to the two. Jing Jing was also observing Clark's confession.

"That's easy for you to say that! But, what if your parents does not like me?" Claire pouted.
