Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 167

Silence suddenly reigned the house.

Ashlee's words might further irritate Horace and Clara and that might bring great trouble to her.

Darren quickly stopped her, "Just shut up, Ashlee!"

Horace suppressed his anger and said with a sneer on his face, "Distain? Sorry, Ashlee, I'm afraid I must inform you that it was I who stayed with Clara that night."

Ashlee was indeed scared but she still said those words with an evil yet proud smile on her face. But now Horace's words made her face pale immediately.

"That's impossible!" Ashlee shouted, "It was definitely an old man…"

She wanted to shout again, but Horace's cold eyes told her that he wasn't lying.

She felt as if she was struck by the lightning.

It had never occurred to her that she didn't hurt Clara two years ago and now she would even have her own life ruined thanks to what she did.

Meanwhile, Darren was also shocked by Horace's words.

But now with the baby inside Ashlee's body in mind, Darren still said on her side, "If it was so, please let Ashlee go, Uncle Horace."

Horace sneered and didn't say anything, but Darren knew that he didn't plan to do as he said.

And as she heard what Darren said, Ashlee felt much better and she said to him with tears in eyes, "Darren, you said those for me, right? You don't want to watch me die, do you?"

Ashlee knew that she didn't have to hide anything anymore in Darren's face. She was quite moved that Darren treated she and her child in such a way. Darren didn't try to abandon her despite what she did.

She continued, "I really love you, Darren. I was possessed by your charm the moment I saw you. I love you. I love you, Darren. I'll do anything for you. You're mine!"

Valerie also said, "Darren! You know how much Ashlee loves you, don't you? I could hear her crying in her room every night since she knew you loved Clara. She would have done all those just because she loves you so much. Don't blame her, Darren."

Now the two culprits behind the case two years ago were now standing right before Clara. But she could feel nothing but ridiculous right now. It was nothing but a farce for her.

Almost no one had cared about her life and her love in the recent two years. She was slandered, distained and abandoned… No one knew better than herself what miseries she had been through.

And she made it alone. Everyone around her thought she was a whore and they would avoid meeting her as long as they could. And the men around her either detested her or make fun of her.

Most importantly, her heart was already broken. If she didn't meet Horace, the only one willing to believe her in the world, she couldn't imagine what a future she would have.

In Clara's mind, what Valerie and Ashlee did was unforgivable.

Darren shook Valerie off and walked over to Clara, "Though I am your ex-boyfriend now, I still want to beg you to forgive Ashlee. She has my baby now. my baby shouldn't shoulder Ashlee's guilty. And Ashlee is your sister. You two are still bound by blood."

Bound by blood? How ridiculous it was. She hated the same blood flowing in their blood vessels. She hated Glenn who took away her mother's happiness and brought her to this depressing world.

She needed to face the fact that she was Ashlee's sister, the malicious woman. "Bound by blood"? She hated this relation to the core.

Clara could still remember the scene when she first met Valerie and Ashlee. Valerie was her stepmother and Ashlee was her sister. She thought she could get along well with them. But these years her patience and tolerance gave her nothing but harm and envy. They disappointed her so much.

It was quite lucky for her to be saved by Horace the night she was drugged. Otherwise, she didn't know how she could make it.

So, who was she in their eyes? An enemy? A stranger? Or a piece of trash that could be stepped on at any time?

Clara didn't want to say a word. They have already hurt her so much. Now it was too late to say she was willing to forgive them or not.

Clara turned her face away and to avoid looking Darren's eyes.

Horace sneered, "Don't say that anymore. Now you must pay for what you did to Clara. Isaac!"

"Copy that, Mr. Kirkland," Isaac nodded and brought into the room those strong men who had been waiting outside.

Pointing at Ashlee and Valerie, Isaac said to the men, "Take them away and give some pills to them. Then you can do whatever you want."

Then Isaac added, "Remember to take some videos."

The men walked over to the two with an evil smile on their face.

Ashlee and Valerie screamed with fear and Darren wanted to stop them but he was then pushed into the corner.

"Mom! Save me! No! No!" Ashlee cried, "Please! Darren! No, get off me…"

Darren took Horace's arm and begged, "Please, uncle Horace! Just think of my baby! It's my child!"

Clara closed her eyes, determined to ignore their screams.

Horace sneered, "I don't think you are in a position to judge."

The men were trying to put the pills into the struggling women's mouth.

Clara was a bit scare and she pressed her head into Horace's arms with her heart quite cold. She felt quite guilty.

But even at this moment Valerie and Ashlee was still cursing her and that made Clara finally decide to let Horace do what he planned to. She told herself that she was also doing so for her mother.

She was kind but she knew what she had to do. She knew someone as evil as Ashlee and Valerie deserve such punishment.

Suddenly, Isaac received a phone call and that really made him quite astonished.

Why…

He knew he must stop Horace and those men.

Then he whispered to Horace.

No one knew what he said to Horace, who also changed his face and then shouted to stop those men.
