Roxannie:It's so simple for me to plan things now before Claire comes back.David has to marry legally now.

Passenger:Don't you think your mother-in-law poisoned you or something?

Claire:I don't think so.

Roman:How do you expect me to do such a horrible thing.

Roxannie:I once did you a favour in my daughter's skin care company.Your ugly daughter got treated in the spa for free and that gave her a reason to smile again.Now make me smile also.

Jeska:How are you going to convince David if he finds out.Just make sure you don't land in trouble you know.

badly)

Claire:Hi there mom.

Roxannie:What?Mom?I think it's now family time.

(hangs up the call)

[Singapore]

Claire:(groans)

Cedric:What's up?You've changed all of a sudden.

Claire:It's my mother- in- law.I don't know what's

her problem.

Cedric:What has she done this time.

Claire:She hanged up the phone on me and said

that it was family time as if am not one of

them.She is so arrogant.

Cadric:I have told you countless times to leave that

family but you never listen to me.Claire,

there are many men in the world worthy to

love you unconditionally.

Claire:What do you mean by that.I should leave my

husband and Carmen and get married

somewhere else?

Cedric:Exactly.That's the only option you're left

with.Open your eyes already.

Claire:(fluffs her hair)No way.I won't leave them.I'll

have to fight until my last breath to get what

i deserve.I am not that weak to accept

defeat.I've lost my appetite already.Let's go.

Cedric:But i haven't lost mine.Wait until i finish

eating my food.(continues to eat)

Claire:Fine.I'll go pay the bills.

Cedric:Chill,this is my treat.

Claire:(sighs)Fine.
