Oh, he had even suspected her of harboring ulterior motives, assuming she was
using his medical treatments as a cover to flirt with him.
Why had he suddenly turned into such a sycophant?
Was it because of Dane?
Now that he knew she was engaged, was he finally relieved she wasn’t trying to sink her claws into him?
Meeting Claire’s piercing gaze, Ewan’s smile stiffened.
What was wrong? Had he said something out of line?
The others leaned in, intrigued. “Is Claire really that skilled?”
Caleb, in particular, looked at her with genuine curiosity. “Claire, does your holistic approach offer any remedies for a worn-out voice?”
“Something highly effective, but not overwhelmingly bitter.”
Hearing Caleb speak, Claire knew his vocal cords were perfectly fine.
A realization flashed through her mind-she remembered that Caleb’s family was deeply rooted in foreign affairs.
She immediately thought of a prominent diplomat with the surname Lewis: Clarence Lewis.
Though Clarence was middle-aged, he had cultivated a massive following online.
The elegant diplomat had won over the public with his sharp wit and eloquent speeches.
Of course, many fans simply swooned over his distinguished, handsome appearance, hailing him as the epitome of sophisticated charm.
Honestly, ever since Solenia was founded, its diplomats had always possessed a striking, authoritative presence.
“Is this for a family member, Caleb? I could definitely put together a custom herbal blend.”
“It would soothe the throat, boost overall health, and won’t interfere with sleep.”
Since Claire had already connected the dots, Caleb didn’t bother playing coy.
“My father strains his voice constantly for work, and it naturally takes a toll. He relies heavily on lozenges and throat drops.”
“Ideally, I would need to examine him in person to tailor a remedy specifically to his physical condition.”
“Everyone’s body chemistry is different, so a generic blend might not be perfectly effective.”
“But if he’s too busy, it’s not a
problem. can mix a univ net
soothing formula that will protect his voice without any adverse side
effects.”
Claire held a deep respect for the esteemed diplomat and was more than willing to offer her services free of charge.
However, a man of his elite stature wasn’t exactly someone she could just casually drop in on.
“Let’s do that, then. Make a universal blend for now, and when my father has him to

In reality, someone at Clarence’s level undoubtedly had access to the nation’s top medical experts; if needed, they could easily call upon the legendary masters

Asking Claire for a remedy now was either a deliberate move to owe her a favor, or
a subtle test of her true capabilities.
Claire figured it was a bit of both.
He truly was born into high society—impeccably well-mannered, yet remarkably shrewd.
An ordinary person would never think to navigate social dynamics with such calculated finesse.
His approach ensured he offended absolutely no one while smoothly earning goodwill.
“Alright,” Claire agreed, seeing right through his intentions but choosing not to call him out.
With Caleb setting the tone, a silent understanding washed over the table.
Xavier, on the other hand, implicitly trusted Claire simply because of his bond with Owen.
Hanson remained quiet, likely waiting to see the results of Caleb’s little test.
Yanni hesitated, glancing back and forth between Claire and Ewan.
“Yanni, if you have something to say, just say it.” Being stared at like that was starting to feel incredibly awkward.
Ewan himself felt self-conscious under the scrutiny.
“I just wanted to ask—can Claire really fix Ewan’s leg?”
“A full recovery will depend heavily on his physical therapy.”
“But standing back up? That won’t be a problem,” Claire answered, making sure not
to overpromise.
After all, what if Ewan failed to cooperate with the rehab, or some unpredictable complication arose?
