Their Queen Returns novel Chapter 377

Chapter 377

Paige stomped out of her mom’s place, fuming and cursing all the way.

They’re all just a bunch of cowards, she thought bitterly.

“Are you Paige! Aiden’s sister and Sienna’s aunt?” a voice called out.

A sleek, understated luxury car pulled up beside her. Paige looked up instinctively, and her breath caught in her throat when she saw the face.

“Who

o are you?” she asked, her voice trembling.

Tm her best friend. Hop in, we need to talk,” the person replied.

The Quinn family’s party.

Claire grabbed Amber, pulling her toward the dance floor, and shot Jaxon a look, clearly telling him to go invite her.

Jaxon, dressed in a crisp suit, looked a bit awkward, his charming face tinged with embarrassment. He took a deep breath, steadied himself, and walked over to Amber in her elegant white gown.

“Amber, would you dance with me?” he asked, his voice a little unsteady.

Amber bit into the cherry on her cake, her beautiful eyes fluttering with a hint of shyness. “Me? But I’m really not that good at dancing

“It’s fine, I can teach you, Jaxon said, trying to sound reassuring.

Claire, standing to the side, gave Amber a little push. “Oh, just go. School’s about to start, and nights like this don’t come often.

“Claire, L…” Amber hesitated, her voice trailing off.

In the end, Amber took Jaxon’s hand and let him lead her onto the dance floor.

Claire smiled, looking like someone who just got her daily dose of shipping fuel. ‘Honestly, love is only fun when you’re watching other people date, she thought.

‘Sunny college boy vs. adorable sweetie, Claire squealed inwardly.

“Oh my god, I’m going to ship this couple so hard, she added, practically vibrating with excitement.

Claire was grinning from ear to ear, watching the two of them, when suddenly, a face as dark as ink appeared in her line of sight,

Claire jumped in fright. Instinctively, she took a step back.

“Mr. Mr. Grant

Hudson’s face was as dark as a thundercloud, and he just stared at Claire in silence.

Claire felt her scalp tingle. She was just about to come up with an excuse to make a run for it when Hudson spoke up.

“Miss Quinn, you really like playing matchmaker, don’t you?” he said, his voice low and dangerous.

Claire didn’t dare admit it. She shook her head quickly, forcing a nervous smile. “No, no, Mr. Grant, I actually have something to take care of, so I’ll just. I’ll be going now.”

1 need to get out of here, fast, she thought.

“Stop right there! Miss Quinn, I’m asking you to dance. You wouldn’t dare say no, would you?” Mr. Grant said, his voice cold and commanding

Claire felt a chill run down her spine, goosebumps popping up all over. ‘Can I even say no?‘ she thought helplessly.

“I don’t like touching women. Put on some gloves, Mr. Grant said flatly.

Claire was speechless. ‘Seriously? If you don’t want to touch me, then don’t ask me in the first place, she grumbled inwardly.

“Who even wears gloves while dancing? Is he nuts or something” she added silently.

“Fine, I’ll put them on,” Claire muttered, giving in.

She followed him onto the dance floor. ‘Honestly, was this even dancing! There was enough space between them for a whole other person! Claire screamed inwardly.
