Chapter 67: Claire Is My Wife!

Evander's POV

I really wanted to throw Susan out of the room, along with everyone else present in the hall. All of them felt like unnecessary obstacles in a moment that should have been about Claire and me. But I held myself back. I decided to let Claire handle it instead. Watching her in action, standing her ground with that sharp wit and calm demeanor, was mesmerizing.
