Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 196

Horace was startled, he suddenly changed his face and rolled over in front of her, "What did you say? You dragged me?"

Ashlee was so frightened by his sudden approach that she fell to the ground.

She felt nervous but didn't want to back down, "What? You wanted to deny that?"

Horace grabbed her chin and glared at her impatiently, "Repeat what exactly happened that day!"

"I...I..." Ashlee mumbled and didn't make eye contact with him with her head down, "I don't remember."

Horace sensed something was wrong, grabbing her.

"You better not mess with me, or I'll bury you alive."

Ashlee got scared but she couldn't give in to this situation.

"I really don't remember."

Horace shook her chin away and left.

Out of the basement, Isaac asked about what happened, and Horace said, "That little girl carried me not dragged me. I guess Ashlee was not her. Isaac, go look into it carefully."

"Yes, sir."

Clara went back to work after a few days of recovery.

Sarah and those saw her and sidled up to ask, "Clara, how's the baby?"

Clara replied with sadness in her eyes, "It's gone."

They thought she had a miscarriage as Horace asked for days off on such short notice, looking at her compassionately.

Darren came out and saw Clara was sorting out files by herself as others went out for lunch at noon.

"C, how have you been?" Darren asked after hesitating for a while.

Clara didn't bother to answer and didn't even take a glance at him.

Seeing this, he tentatively asked more.

"C, do you know where Ashlee is? Do you know why Horace has her? And do you know why he did that to my father..."

Clara got annoyed by him and replied with anger, "Just ask your father!"

Darren was dumbfounded. He linked things together and wondered if it had something to do with her baby.

Darren called his father right away, "Dad, did you do something to Clara's baby?"

"I did it, so what?" Sean answered impatiently on the phone.

Darren said furiously, "You promised you'll leave her alone!"

"She did it to herself. She shouldn't have taken Horace's side!" Sean got more annoyed than he already was and hung up.

Darren hung up, feeling bad.

He felt that not only he and Clara could not be lovers but they started to turn against each other.

At the CEO's office of Solrace.

Isaac walked in hurriedly with a strange look on his face, and he said in a low voice, "Mr. Kirkland, I'm sorry."

Horace raised his eyebrows and said, "What?"

"I investigated thoroughly about the girl who saved you ten years ago when you were kidnapped. Ashlee was in summer camp, so she couldn't be the one." Isaac felt ashamed, "I got carried away when I found the dress and I forgot to confirm forward. It was my mistake."

Horace was not surprised at all and was relieved as he had been holding doubts.
