Chapter 203 You Can't Do That!

"Wait, what? Frederick, you're going to lock me up? On what grounds?"

Claire immediately panicked, wiping her mouth with her hand, forgetting all about the paper.

"Take her away!"

Frederick pretended he hadn't heard and ordered his men to take Claire.

"Frederick, you can't lock me up!" Claire's panic escalated.

away.

She had finally managed to get into Hiokeeh Group, and now, at the most critical moment, she couldn't afford to be locked Tomorrow was her second day on the job-if they locked her up, how could she go to work?

At that point, no matter how powerful Antony was as the department manager, he wouldn't be able to protect her.

The noise downstairs grew louder, and Claire's voice was no quieter. Hearing the commotion, Caroline rushed out of her

room.

When she saw Frederick about to lock Claire up, her heart couldn't help but swell with glee.

Recalling the message Zachary had sent her earlier, her long, narrow eyes gleamed with cold satisfaction.

Ha ha..." she thought.

"What's going on? Frederick, why are you locking Claire up?"

2/5

Caroline asked, playing the concerned role as she made her way over to Frederick.

She wasn't going to miss this opportunity to make an

impression, not when the chance was practically handed to her.

Having already crafted a perfect excuse when she got Zachary's message, Caroline was ready to stoke the fire.

"She needs to be locked up."

But Frederick's response was short and final, and he turned around to go back to his room without saying anything more. Caroline froze.

Her well-thought-out plan had just been sidelined, and she › found herself getting flustered.

If she didn't find a way to stand out in front of Frederick or make a move soon, when would she ever have the chance to become his woman?

Fuming, she returned to her room. Seeing the stuffed animal on the bed, she grabbed it and punched it a few times in frustration.

"Claire, you bitch, why did you have to get out of prison? Why did you have to tempt Frederick? If it weren't for you, I'd be the one with him." Chapter 203 You Can't Do That!

After venting, Caroline lay down on her bed, seething. She sent another message to Zachary.

[Zachary, things are unfolding just as you said. Frederick's

locked Claire up as soon as he came back today. But is that all? How will this deepen the rift between them? How can we drive a wedge between them?]

[What? It only took one day for Frederick to lock Claire up, and you're asking for more? Stop rushing me. I've got other things to deal with.]

Zachary, who was in the middle of some passionate moments with a sexy woman, glanced at Caroline's message and replied casually before returning to his distraction.

[Zachary, I know you made progress in just one day, but can't we speed this up a bit? I'm worried that if Claire and Frederick are together too long, she might get pregnant and have a kid- then it'll be too late.]

Caroline thought for a moment, using pregnancy as a way to escalate things, but she got no reply from Zachary, even after waiting a long while.

Meanwhile, Zachary had already stripped down, wrapping his arms around the woman's long legs as he prepared to move things to the next level. WhatsApp messages were the last thing on his mind. Caroline, seeing no response from Zachary, could only stew in her frustration, lying in bed and glaring at the screen.

Her eyes were fixated on the word "pregnant" she had just sent.

Pregnant?

Of course! How had she not thought of this before?

Now that Claire and Antony were working together at the same company, constantly crossing paths, there was bound to be after-hours socializing.

And during those social events, with all the drinks flowing and inhibitions lowered, wasn't it entirely possible something could happen?

Just a small nudge one little adjustment and the two of them could end up in bed together.

Antony was so obviously infatuated with Claire; she doubted he'd be able to resist in that situation.

And if things played out just right, even if Claire ended up pregnant with Frederick's child, everyone would think it was Antony's.

Hahaha! Caroline couldn't contain her glee. This was genius. There couldn't be a more perfect plan.

But for this scheme to work, she couldn't do it alone. She needed help.

Zachary was an option, but she couldn't place all her hopes on him.

After all, if life had taught her anything, it was that the only person she could truly rely on was herself.

The problem was, she didn't have any connections or resources to pull from. Few of her university classmates had made it into a company as prestigious as Hiokeeh Group, and her old contacts and leverage had all been tied to Diana. Now that Diana had been shipped off overseas and wiped her WhatsApp clean, that avenue was completely shut.

Caroline spent the entire night tossing and turning, scouring her network, reaching out to people, and trying to find someone-anyone-connected to Hiokeeh Group. But her efforts came up empty.

Exhausted and out of options, she eventually fell asleep.

The next morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw an email waiting for her.

[Do something for me, and I'll help you get a foothold in Hiokeeh Group.]

The email wasn't from a stranger-it was from the same mysterious account that had given her the idea to use public pressure to force Claire back to Halfmoon Manor.
