No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 639

Claudia sat back down. She clutched her juice glass, her head bowed, and York could clearly sense her discomfort.

He nonchalantly took the glass from her hand. "It's gotten cold. Let me get you a hot one."

"Thank you, York," Claudia said.

The formal politeness in her tone, a clear sign of distance, made York's hand pause as he set the glass down.

"What game were you playing just now? Can I join?" Gideon asked.

Hearing Gideon mention Truth or Dare, York gave a subtle nod. "Of course."

Peter jumped in to liven things up. "Everyone in the room has to play!"

The room filled with cheers, and the festive atmosphere returned.

Following the rules, the person first in the clockwise seating order spun the bottle. It landed on Peter.

Amid the boisterous laughter, the spinner asked, "Mr. Peter, between you and Darleen, who made the first move?"

Peter wrapped an arm around Darleen's shoulders and announced proudly, "Isn't it obvious? Me, of course."

Darleen found herself admiring Peter's sense of responsibility more and more. The truth was, she had been the one to drunkenly make a move, but in front of their elders, Peter had taken all the blame. To everyone else, he consistently clarified that he had been plotting for a long time and had relentlessly pursued her, giving her the utmost respect.

Claudia felt a mix of envy and genuine happiness for them. Peter had a reputation as a playboy, with women flocking to him like moths to a flame. But while his words were often flippant and his social skills smooth, he maintained his principles and never crossed lines, never giving any woman the chance to get close to him in private. He was infinitely better than those sanctimonious hypocrites.

Peter spun the bottle, and it came to a stop pointing directly at Claudia. All eyes in the room turned to her.

Claudia shot Peter a pleading look.
