Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 241

"I see." Laura asked thoughtfully, "But why did my brother never tell me about it?"

"It's probably because he hasn't had a chance to talk to you yet." After making another excuse, Clara continued, "Please describe to me what the cleaner looks like and what can distinguish him from the others? I'll call my boss and propose putting an ad in the magazine looking for the cleaner."

After Clara finished, she kept staring at Laura, observing Laura's expression. If what Laura said was true, she should remember the cleaner.

After all, according to what Laura said, she suffered memory loss. Thus, she should have remembered the cleaner, who was the first person she saw after waking up.

"I don't know," Laura looked away and said nervously, "When I woke up, that cleaner had already gone. It was a nurse who told me that it was a cleaner who brought me to the hospital."

"But this is different from what you said in the Hutchinson's. You said you saw the cleaner when you woke up." Clara found something wrong with Laura's words.

"Really? Did I say that?" Laura became a little nervous. "You must have misheard me. I didn't say I'd seen the cleaner."

"Then how did you know that he untied the ropes on your and Horace's wrists? According to you, the cleaner even told you that he failed to save Horace because the flames spread too fast." Clara was almost certain that Laura's previous explanation was a lie.

"I..." Laura was dumbfounded. She stammered but didn't know what to say. Finally, Laura's face darkened. "Clara, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Laura, you are lying." Clara raised her voice. "It was not the cleaner who saved you from the fire. You must tell me what clearly happened back then. How on earth did you escape?"

"Yes, I lied to you." Now that Clara found out the truth, Laura didn't bother to pretend anymore. She admitted, "I left by myself."

Although Clara had guessed, she was startled by Laura's words. "Now that you woke first, why did you leave alone rather than wake up Horace? Did you want him to burn up in a fire?"

"I don't have to explain this to you." Many people were attracted by Clara's voice and looked toward Laura and her. Seeing this, Laura stood up, took her handbag, and wanted to leave here.

"Stop!" Clara grabbed Laura. "You can't go! Tell us exactly what happened back then."

After bailing on Clara, Laura said impatiently, "I've had enough of you. It has nothing to do with you. If you don't want to get into trouble, you'd better stay away from this."

Laura was not guilty at all. Instead, she began to threaten Clara arrogantly, which greatly irritated Clara. "I'll tell Horace all about it. And he will teach you a lesson!"

Laura was amused. She laughed out loud and said indifferently, "Clara, are you threatening me? Just tell this to Horace, but I don't think he'll believe you."

Noticing that more and more people were attracted, Laura was not eager to leave anymore. She sat down with a sneer at Clara.

"Clara, do you think Horace really likes you? You don't deserve him at all. Do you know how we spent the three hours in the elevator?" Laura pretended to be shy. "Horace said he still loved me and that he'll divorce you eventually. Horace is mine, and I will definitely marry him. You are no match for me at all."

"Laura, you are going too far!" Clara was irritated by what Laura said, subconsciously banged on the table. "I won't buy whatever you say..."

Before Clara could finish her words, Laura leaned back and fell to the ground with the chair. Besides, when Laura fell down, she hooked a table's leg with her toes. The next second, the table tilted and all the coffee cups on it crashed onto the floor.

When Laura fell to the ground, her face hit right on some debris, which left a few bleeding wounds on her face.

Clara froze when seeing this. She did not expect Laura to fall down due to her banging on the table.

"My face! My face is bleeding!" Before Clara could calm down, Laura screamed in shock.

Laura covered the wounds on her face with one hand and pointed at Clara with the other, shouting, "Clara, how vicious you are! You tried to disfigure me!"

Laura said as tears, mixed with blood, trickled down her pretty face. Some people hurried to help Laura up, and the others called an ambulance at once.

When Laura arrived here, everyone was attracted to her appearance, elegance, and nobility. Such a beauty could always distinguish herself from the others.

But now, Laura was lying awkwardly on the ground. Her clothes were stained with coffee and even her face was broken. Everyone seeing this couldn't help worrying about Laura. From where these people stood, Clara was more malicious than a witch.

"What the hell did you do? Whatever happens, you can't disfigure this lady." A man took the lead to scold Clara.

As soon as this man finished his words, another man echoed, "Can't agree more. You're vicious! Are you trying to disfigure this lady? You are overwhelmed by jealousy. You women are always envious!"

"You can't say that! Not all women are as vicious as her." A woman stepped forward and gave Clara a push. Accordingly, Clara lost her balance, stumbled, and fell to the ground. Instead of helping Clara up, everyone looked at her in fury.
