Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 187

Unlike what Clara had guessed, Darren wanted to convince her personally. Instead of arranging her assignments

Clara felt it was unnecessary to stay any longer.

"I'll go if there is nothing else."

Darren was depressed, finding their relationship had come to an end.

"Clara, do you really have no feelings for me at all? I don't believe."

Clara admitted that she had once loved him very much. However, she had seen it as a beautiful, loving memory after experiencing so many things.

Horace was the only one in her life since now.

"Remember that Ashlee is also pregnant. You should love her and your child well. Darren, we can't go back anymore."

"We can! It's never too late! If you're willing to return to me, I will start again. To leave here together and go abroad. I can leave everything here behind!"

Clara let out a sigh. Why was Darren so obsessed with her?

Although Ashlee was not flawless and benign, she was sincere and infatuated with Darren. He should cherish her.

Clara was about to persuade him when there was a sudden knock. It was Diane.

Seeing they seemed angry, Diane dared not say much for fear of them accidentally getting mad with her.

She was cautious, "Sir, the manuscript of the interview with Logan and his antique exhibition is edited. Please check the typeset and sign it if everything is okay."

Darren took it with a sullen face and looked at it briefly, which was generally acceptable.

Logan was already enough to attract the readers' attention, and any other pictures would become a companion. The text was written by Clara, which he had already read before, so it was perfect.

"Very well, that's it."

He signed and handed it to Diane.

Diane smiled, squinted at Clara, and then went out.

She pondered that they both seemed exasperated and unhappy.

She had heard their conversations vaguely outside the door, which didn't sound like a work-related matter.

Before, Ashlee had asked her to keep an eye on Clara. Now, Diane thought of the night when she saw Darren forcibly kissing Clara, combined with Clara's pregnancy… She felt there must be more behind the story.

"Should I inform Ashlee? Is there something wrong with Clara's baby?"

After considering it for a while, she decided not to meddle in it. It was unworthy to risk it.

With this in mind, Diane returned to her work as if nothing had just happened.

Darren continued the conversation with Clara.

"I asked you to interview Logan because I wanted you to see how hypocritical, selfish and heartless Horace was. He abandoned Laura, who was fascinated with him and fled alone to stay alive, causing Laura to die in a fire. Such a man does not deserve you to give so much for him!"

"That's enough! Darren!" Clara was furious, "Now that you mentioned it, I just remembered. How could you do this? You knew that Logan was biased against Horace, so you deliberately asked me to interview him. When did you become so dishonest?"

Why did all the people have to target Horace? What exactly did he do wrong? Clara felt bad for Horace, thinking about how difficult it had been for Horace for so many years. Clara could understand all too well what it was like to be misunderstood.

"Darren, I love Horace and will be with him for the rest of my life. No matter what you say or anyone thinks of him, he is the best in my heart. Drop your illusions." After saying that, Clara pulled open the door and went out.

Darren heard the sound of his heart breaking.

Sitting and looking out, he was depressed as the bleak scenery.

A leaf fell, which made Darren even sadder. Clara was like the leaf that had left him on such an autumn day.

He still remembered that Clara always liked children and would bring him along to volunteer at the orphanage.

The children there were all poor but understanding and cute. Clara got along well with them; they all loved her and praised her for being beautiful and gentle.

Clara explained that they were just as pitiful as herself, having nobody to care for and love. But again, she was much happier than them because she had Darren and her mother, so she wanted to help them.

Darren remembered that Clara's smiling face was bright and beautiful. She glowed like an angel when the sun shone on her, laughing and running happily with the children.

Clara also told him that her biggest dream was to have her own children, start her own family and give them the best upbringing that she never had.

He was thinking of telling her his true identity and marrying her once he graduated since she wanted a complete family.

But who would have thought that fate would have a way?

Darren stopped recalling, looking sad.

Everything was so beautiful back then, but he didn't expect they did have a child, not theirs.

Clara had been distracted after leaving the office, and she immediately packed her things and went home.

Horace arranged a car because of her pregnancy, which she accepted since it was inappropriate for her to take the subway.

He hadn't been home when she reached, so she sat on the sofa while the door rang.

Clara hurriedly opened the door.

"Horace! You're back."

Seeing the person outside, she couldn't help but freeze.

The person was not Horace, but a very unexpected one.

It was the grandfather, Russell.
