Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 232

Clara's face that had just eased a little now turned serious again. What did Laura mean?

Laura didn't seem to notice that Clara, who was beside her, had turned cold. She continued, "Horace used to worry that I would be bored at home and that I would go out alone, so he often went shopping with me."

"By the way, Clara, where do you guys often go? Will you take me with you later? I haven't come back for so many years and I almost forget what this city looks like."

Hearing her words, Clara's eyes flashed with disappointment and she replied casually, "Horace is very busy. He has a lot of things to deal with on business and we rarely come out."

"What? He doesn't come out with you?" Laura looked surprised, "He actually treats you like this. He used to make time to spend with his girlfriend but now he doesn't have time to spend with his wife? What's more important than you? But don't worry, I'll teach him a lesson later."

Laura looked indignant, her tone was full of schadenfreude, and she looked at Clara with ridicule.

Even if Clara was a fool, she would know what she meant by this point. She did not invite herself to go shopping but to show off the deep affection between them in the past.

"No need, he treats me very well." Still not good at quarreling openly, Clara replied calmly to her with a cold tone.

"Really?" Laura looked at Clara suspiciously and asked strangely, obviously not believing what she said. "You don't have to deceive yourself. Although he treats me... But don't worry, I won't step in between you two."

Clara was about to go mad. What did Horace do to her? Was Laura suggesting that Horace still had feelings for her?

Clara was really exhausted today. She shouldn't have come out. She found herself such an idiot that she had trusted Laura again.

Clara wanted to storm away, but her personality did not allow her to do such a thing. Just when she was thinking of an excuse to leave, she received a text message from her phone in her bag.

She took out the phone and looked at it. It was a text message from the mobile customer service notifying her that her credit balance was insufficient.

After thinking about it, Clara said to Laura, "I just received a notice from the magazine that I need to go back and deal with an emergency, so I'll go first."

After speaking, Clara picked up her bag and stood up, ready to leave.

"Don't," Laura saw Clara leave, stood up, and took two steps, grabbing her arm. "We finally have some time to hang out together. What is so urgent? How about I call your editor-in-chief and ask him to give you a day off? I think he would do me this favor."

Clara broke from her hands and stood there. She didn't know what to do for a while.

"Then, let me call my colleague first." Clara hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked two steps away, pretending to call her colleague.

Looking at her back not far away, Laura sneered with contempt. Such a clumsy lie, this woman is really stupid. She didn't know what Horace sees her in the first place.

After several minutes, Clara came back, "Let's go."

"Well, good." Laura smiled and took Clara's arm and walked forward.

Clara was a little bit against her intimate behavior and her body stiffened a bit, but she couldn't shake off her hand directly.

She twitched her arm slightly, but Laura held it tighter instead. Laura looked at Clara with a bright smile on her face. And those who didn't know would think they were best friends. Clara could only let it be.

After arriving at the mall, Laura didn't keep instigating Clara to buy clothes like last time, she tried one after another by herself and bought a lot of clothes in large and small bags.

Laura had been trying on clothes and she asked Clara to help her carry her bag and the clothes she had already bought. Clara followed her with her hands full, just like her maid.

When she came to a new store, Laura took a fancy to a light blue off-shoulder dress and went to the fitting room to try it on. Clara was really too tired, so she sat in the rest area and waited for her.

When she changed clothes and came out, she turned around and looked at herself in the fitting mirror with satisfaction.

"Miss, the color of this dress suits you very well and it also shows off your figure. You are so beautiful wearing it." The shop assistant next to Laura praised her sweetly.

"Well," Laura also liked this dress very much and the smile on her face deepened when she heard the compliment from the shop assistant.

Looking at the fitting mirror, again and again, she squinted at Clara who was sitting on the sofa in the resting place.

Following her sight, the shop assistant thought that Laura was afraid that they would not be able to carry it.

As soon as the two young ladies entered the door, she saw that the young lady in the resting place had her hands full and there was no room for new things.

"Miss, don't worry, we can deliver to your home, just leave your address later. We can also help you send the clothes you bought before back together." The shop assistant said thoughtfully.

Laura refused, "No need, I like this dress very much. I'll wear it when I go back. I don't want to wait for you to deliver it."

"Miss, we could be very fast. We can help you arrange the delivery now. When you get home, you should be able to get it." The shop assistant explained to her with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Laura straightened her face, "I said no."

The shop assistant didn't seem to have thought that her thoughtful actions would arouse the disgust of the guests, "I'm sorry, miss, I see."

"Bring another piece of the same clothes over here," Laura instructed the shop assistant impatiently.

The shop assistant was a little puzzled by her request. Generally, no customer would buy two of the same couture dresses.

Still, the shop assistant took another piece according to her. After all, customers are their gods, and she wished she could buy two so that her bonus this month would raise a little more.

Taking the clothes handed by the shop assistant with both hands, Laura walked toward Clara.
