The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1297

"Not yet, but someone snuck into my apartment and installed surveillance equipment."

"Perhaps they're getting restless."

Pandora's expression shifted drastically. "They broke into your home? Isn't that incredibly dangerous?"

If they could infiltrate her home, they could strike at any moment.

The young girl knew how to throw a punch, but she was no match for trained professionals!

"I think they just want to observe me for now. Maybe they don't even plan on attacking?"

"Besides, you already assigned people to watch over me. I don't think I'm in immediate danger."

Claire didn't feel particularly threatened herself.

But she had to admit, her grandmother's concerns were completely justified.

"We cannot be careless," Pandora mused darkly. "After the holidays, Dewitt is going to Cabinda with you."

What?

Claire almost thought she misheard.

"Grandma, doesn't Dewitt have important business in Kaston?"

"If he comes to Cabinda with me, who will handle things over there?"

Dewitt had spent years building his empire in Kaston; he was a formidable, feared figure in that region.

Tearing him away from his territory to babysit her in Cabinda seemed like a massive inconvenience.

"He already made the necessary arrangements. He doesn't need to stand guard there twenty-four-seven."

Truthfully, Pearce and his wife wanted Dewitt to come back, settle down, and start a family.

Even if he had to stay stationed abroad, he still needed to get married and have kids.

Pearce and his wife were quite conservative in their thinking.

Their son had always been a rebellious wildcard, and Pandora was the only one who could keep him in line.

Once he left the village, it was like he had grown wings—he never wanted to come back.

His parents used Edison's wedding as the perfect excuse to summon him home.

Dewitt was planning to take a vacation anyway.

So, it conveniently aligned with his parents' wishes.

However, he definitely hadn't returned to blindly go on blind dates and get hitched.
