Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 146

When Clara walked out of the Merivia Bay, she was stupefied.

She finally broke off all relations with them…

From now on, she owed nothing to Glenn nor the Middleton family. What the Middletons had done to her was no longer important. From this day on, her mom was the only family she got left.

Well, no.

She also had Horace.

Thinking of this, Clara felt uplifted and motivated.

Then Horace and Clara got in the car. Horace asked Isaac to drive them home.

Clara was either lost in her thought or stared into the space. Her eyes were always red.

Horace thought he should let her vent out her feelings.

She had been too exhausted from facing the painful past. One without strong willpower would be overwhelmed by it.

The Middletons bombarded her with unbearable words. Clara was too fragile to handle it. She must have been heartbroken.

Horace held her in his arms and said in a deep voice, "It's OK to cry if you want to."

In Horace's warm and strong arms, Clara was cozy and warm as if she was by the hearth. She no longer feared the frostiness and cruelty.

She wept in his arms, unleashing all her grievance accumulated since childhood. She didn't need to overstrain herself or put on a brave face. She could just cry when she needed to.

Clara could finally make a clear break with them after so many years of entanglement. She was bullied, abused and tortured when she was young. When she grew up, they constantly put her down. She thought she never belonged to that family.

Luckily, she was able to get rid of the Middletons now!

She felt so relieved. It turned out that she had carried so much burden in the past years.

Horace quietly cuddled her.

After Clara had cried enough, Horace looked down at her. "Are you feeling better now?"

Clara nodded.

"Would you like to talk about your past now? I will listen to you. It can also help you vent your feelings."

Horace kissed her gently on the cheek.

She wiped her tears and start to talk about her childhood.

Clara said, "When I was a child, the Middletons once said that they would take me to the seaside for a trip. I was so thrilled. I had never been to the seaside. I only knew from the book that the sea was blue. The coastline extended to the other end of the earth. It was so beautiful."

Horace sat closer, put Clara's head on his lap and let her lie down. It would make her more relaxed.

"Horace, I liked the sea very much. It gave me a sense of security. We went to Mauritius, which was a romantic place. I had been longing for that trip for a long time. My mother had no time to accompany me, so she also approved of the trip. We had a good time at the seaside. The sea was really beautiful, and all my problems seemed to be blew away by the breeze. But suddenly Ashlee's Barbie doll fell into a crack in the stone. She started to cry and wanted to take it out"

Clara heaved a heavy sigh.

What happened next was not as pleasant.
