Chapter 161: Not for Everyone
“Just brag!”
Julia was sitting next to Frederick, while she was happy about it, she was annoyed that Kira put on an arrogant look as soon as she got in the car.
“I didn’t brag this time!” Kira raised her hand and proudly ruffled the hair around her ear, pride showing on her pretty face, “The Summers family had been doing jewelry business for hundreds of years, I can say that we are one of the best jewelry makers!”
“Huh…”
Julia let out a disdainful snort, “If the Summers family is so awesome, why can’t you even win the Felix family?”
“You!”
Kira’s eyes were filled with anger, but there was nothing she could do about Julia.
She knew that Julia was nothing more than an assistant, and it was useless to win her at argument, the decision rested with Claire.
“Claire.”
She turned around, took Claire’s arm and spoke sincerely, “Your mother is a Summers, no matter what, you are also a Summers family member. You can ha any jewelry you want, but can you please give that pink crystal to us? We really need it.”
“Winona Summers is not my mother,” Claire smiled indifferently, “My mother

name is Madeline, not Winona.”
What?
Claire wasn’t even going to admit that now?
Kira couldn’t understand why, if it were anyone else, she would have rushed to the Summers family, begging for them to take her in. But Claire was so dismissive…
“Claire! Why can’t you understand? That pink crystal would only be a waste in your hands, it can only display its maximum value in the hands of the Summers family…
“How do you know?”
Claire pulled her arm out of Kira’s grasp, she was injured during the horse race and now it hurt like hell.
She just didn’t show it, but Kira thought she wasn’t in pain and pulled her arm with a lot of force.
“Kira, I can tell you one thing. I am going to do jewelry business and in three months at most, I will have my chain stores all over Ascalon!”
“Claire, do you think anyone can do jewelry business?”
Kira was so angry that she clenched her hands into fists, “Not to mention that starting a jewelry–making company requires jewelry designers and appraisers, you need a raw material supplier and you don’t have one!”
It was easy to hire designers and appraisers, she could poach them from the best jewelry companies. But it was hard to find a raw material supplier. It
was not as simple as getting some diamonds or crystals. The biggest jewelry

thakers like the Summers had their own mines.
Otherwise, out–of–stock situations might occur if a company was too dependent on buying raw material from someone else.
Claire gave an indifferent smile, “That’s not for you to worry about, Ms. Summers.”
Just then, the car had pulled up to the entrance of the Vanderbilt family’s estate, Claire pulled open the door and made a gesture to Kira, “Ms. Summers, we are home. Sorry we can’t invite you in for a cup of coffee. Goodbye.”
Kira stomped her foot in frustration, and when she met Sean’s cold, stern gaze, she hastily turned around to get out of the car, pouting.
Frederick went back to his place and Julia took Belle and Jon to Sean’s.
Sean took out the medical kit and sat down next to Claire, “You didn’t go to the hospital, only I could help you with the wounds now.”
“I’m a doctor myself, there’s no need to go to the hospital.”
“Claire…”
Sean said this both helplessly and dotingly, Julia shook her head, “Come on, you guys. We kids are still here.”
Jon rolled his eyes at her, “You are a kid? How could you say that?”
“I just said it!”
Julia picked Belle up and sat Belle on her lap. She thought Belle was the sweetest since Belle would never argue with her.

Chapter 161: Not for Everyone
Thinking about what Kira and Claire had said in the car, she felt a little worried, “Claire, do you really want to run a jewelry company?”
“Sure.” Claire rolled up her sleeve, revealing the abrasions on her arm.
Belle and Jon took one look and both their eyes instantly reddened.
“Mommy…”
Claire smiled gently at them, “It doesn’t hurt. Don’t cry. Or I will have to
ask Julia to take you away.”
“We won’t!”
Jon held back his tears and said, “We are big boy and big girl now! We won’t
cry.”
Belle had tears in her eyes and when she heard that she might be taken away,
she held back her tears as well, “I won’t cry, Mommy.”
Sean took the cotton pad and gently, tenderly treated Claire’s wound.
Those scrapes looked serious, but Claire didn’t even frown, as if those
wounds didn’t even exist, and continued to chat with Julia.
“Julia, I don’t think I’ll be able to go out for a few days. I need you to find me an office building with about three or four stories…”
–“No need.”
Sean’s eyes were fixed on Claire’s wounds, he carefully and gently sterilized her wounds for her while listening to their conversation.
