Claire remotely supervised her brother's operations and, though she grew frustrated with his numerous "improvisations", Nathan eventually succeeded in saving Noa and securing [[Lantern (Piece of Eden)\|one]] of the artifacts sought by the [[Templars]].

			Meanwhile, Claire reluctantly rekindled the old ties between her company and the Assassins, believing the two organizations needed to work together once more to stop the Templars' plans. After meeting Noa, Claire lent her and the Zhawang Corporation's full support to his cause, helping Noa in his quest to retrieve the remaining two Pieces of Eden and use them to fight against Abstergo.

			Claire and her brother [[Nathan Zhang\|Nathan]] were born into the [[Zhawang Corporation]], an organization that had worked alongside the [[Assassins]] to safeguard a number of [[Piece of Eden\|Pieces of Eden]] from the [[Templars]] until the early 20th century, when their ties were indefinitely severed. Claire's father served as the Corporation's Director and raised her to follow in his footsteps, teaching her how to manage the large company and sending her to business school.

	Working together, Claire and Nathan organized an ambush during Noa's trip with the [[Japanese Rite of the Templar Order\|Japanese Templar]] [[Shimazu Sei]] to the [[A-Ma Cultural Village]] in [[Macau]]. While members of Doom Eagle attacked Sei and her guards as a distraction, two of Claire's operatives attempted to convince Noa to leave with them.

When the ''Exitus'' left Macau's harbor, an agent contacted Claire to update her on the situation.

	Another point of difference between Claire and Nathan was their approach towards the usage of the Pieces of Eden. While Nathan viewed them as dangerous artifacts that no human should wield, Claire saw no issue with employing the Pieces' power in the name of the greater good, and believed that the artifacts were the only things that would grant them a fighting chance against Abstergo.<ref name="EP 80" />		Another point of difference between Claire and Nathan was their approach towards the usage of the Pieces of Eden.

			Unlike Nathan, Claire was reluctant to work with the Assassins, believing that her family had long since repaid their debt to the Brotherhood. However, with both her brother's and Noa Kim's lives on the line, she ultimately conceded and rekindled the old partnership between the Zhawang Corporation and the Brotherhood, both to guarantee Nathan and Noa's safety and to stand a better chance at stopping Abstergo's plans.<ref name="EP 112" />

	In 2023, Claire and Nathan led the Corporation's efforts to rescue [[Noa Kim]], a descendant of the company's founder [[Edward Kenway]], who had been abducted by [[Abstergo Industries]] in order to use his [[Genetic memory\|genetic memories]] to find a [[Southeast Asian Pieces of Eden\|set]] of three [[Piece of Eden\|Pieces of Eden]].

	Meanwhile, Claire reluctantly rekindled the old ties between her company and the Assassins, believing the two organizations needed to work together once more to stop the Templars' plans. After meeting Noa, Claire lent her and the Zhawang Corporation's full support to his cause, helping Noa in his quest to ~~retrieve~~ the ~~remaining two~~ Pieces of Eden ~~and use them~~ to ~~fight against Abstergo~~.

	Just then, Nathan snatched away the operative's phone to talk to Claire. Claiming that his organization had a foothold in the [[Philippines]], Nathan asked to take over the operation to rescue Noa. Claire reluctantly conceded and asked Nathan to avoid "blowing it out of proportion", only for the latter to remark that, since their failed attack in the A-Ma Cultural Village, Abstergo had likely increased their security. An annoyed Claire ~~then~~ asked Nathan to still try and keep a low profile, to which he laughed and said it was easier said than done.<ref name="EP 42"/>		Just then, Nathan snatched away the operative's phone to talk to Claire.

	Claire stated that she hoped Nathan was right about Noa, as keeping the Piece of Eden out of Abstergo's hands was the only way to ensure no one else would have to suffer like Nathan had. Nathan then pondered if the Brotherhood thought the same, before claiming that the Assassins were no brothers of his and that the only [[The Creed\|creed]] he and Claire followed was the one they had sworn to themselves: to never abandon family.<ref name="EP 47"/>		Claire stated that she hoped Nathan was right about Noa, as keeping the Piece of Eden out of Abstergo's hands was the only way to ensure no one else would have to suffer like Nathan had.

	Sometime later, Nathan again called Claire while he was on "vacation", informing her of his plan to ambush Abstergo when they inevitably attempted to retrieve a [[crescent amulet]] – a Piece of Eden – from the [[Strait of Malacca]]. Claire believed the plan to be too reckless, but Nathan assured her that he was not acting alone and that he had enlisted the help of some "old friends" to put him in contact with Shimazu Sei so they could negotiate a deal.<ref name="EP 74">''[[Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple Episode 74\|Episode 74]]</ref>		Sometime later, Nathan again called Claire while he was on "vacation", informing her of his plan to ambush Abstergo when they inevitably attempted to retrieve a [[crescent amulet]] – a Piece of Eden – from the [[Strait of Malacca]].

	After Nathan helped Noa, Sei, and her bodyguard [[Yuki]] escape from Abstergo with the amulet, he called Claire to update her on the situation.

	After Nathan and his allies managed to locate a Piece of Eden in the [[Shwedagon Pagoda]] in [[Yangon]], [[Myanmar]], he called Claire to inform her about their plan to retrieve the [[Lantern (Piece of Eden)\|artifact]], mentioning that it could get "messy".

	Annoyed at Nathan's decision to involve the Assassins, Claire asked if it was really necessary, to which Nathan insisted that they needed all the assistance they could get to save Noa and that the Assassins would have found out about their operations sooner or later anyway. Realizing it was too late to back away now, Claire remarked that she never expected her generation to be the one to rekindle the old ties between the Zhawang Corporation and the Brotherhood.<ref name="EP 98" />		Annoyed at Nathan's decision to involve the Assassins, Claire asked if it was really necessary, to which Nathan insisted that they needed all the assistance they could get to save Noa and that the Assassins would have found out about their operations sooner or later anyway.

	As ~~director~~ of the Zhawang Corporation, Claire took her position very seriously and was annoyed by having to supervise Nathan, who in many ways was her polar opposite.

	Another point of difference between Claire and Nathan was their approach towards the usage of the Pieces of Eden. While Nathan viewed them as dangerous artifacts that no human should wield, Claire saw no issue with employing the Pieces' power in the name of the greater good, and believed that the artifacts were the only things that would grant them a fighting chance against Abstergo.<ref name="EP 80" />		Another point of difference between Claire and Nathan was their approach towards the usage of the Pieces of Eden.
