Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 243

"Do you believe them and think I deliberately hurt Laura?" Clara's eyes had turned red.

Horace didn't speak. But Clara knew his attitude in this silence. Horace didn't believe her!

Clara laughed self-deprecatingly and turned away. She didn't want to explain anymore.

The instant she turned around, Clara lost control of her tears. She felt aggrieved and angry.

The kidnapping that happened ten years ago had nothing to do with Clara. Because of Horace, she had been pestering Laura, asking questions. However, now, no one believed her, not even Horace. Clara suddenly felt that all she had done was pointless.

Seeing that Clara was leaving, Horace grabbed her by the hand. When Clara turned around, Horace found her in tears.

Clara stubbornly looked away, which made Horace heartache.

"Clara, I didn't say you hurt Laura on purpose. But you've been weird lately, is it because of Laura? Horace said softly, "There's nothing going on between me and Laura. You are unlike yourself because of her. Don't."

"Unlike me?" Getting rid of Horace's hand, Clara met Horace's gaze and said self-deprecatingly, "So what am I like in your heart now? A malicious woman? Or a jealous wife?"

"Clara!" Horace sounded a little angry. He stepped forward and grabbed Clara. "Do you have to argue with me? You know I didn't mean that. Stop being dramatic, please."

"Dramatic?" Clara was speechless hearing that. Did Horace think it was all her fault?

"Enough, I don't want to talk to you anymore!" Clara calmed herself down a little and then broke free of Horace's grip, and walked outside the hospital, saying, "I need some peace."

Horace looked at Clara's back. He didn't stop her from leaving this time, for he knew that it would only make things worse. He didn't want to argue with Clara.

Walking out of the hospital, Clara saw Helena rushing over.

"Mom, what are you doing here?" Clara hurried forward. She was surprised to see Helena.

Yet Helena slapped her just as she went over. Clara was stunned, not knowing what to do for a moment

Feeling the pain in her face, Clara gradually came back to her senses. With one hand covering her face, Clara slowly looked back at Helena in disbelief, crying, "Mom, why?"

Helena cried even harder. Her hand that slapped Clara was trembling. She pointed at Clara and asked angrily, "Why? Tell me, how can you hurt Laura's face because of jealousy?"

Clara realized that Helena had come to see Laura. She slapped her for Laura, without even asking what happened.

Why did Helena slap her daughter without asking what was going on?

"Mom, I didn't hurt Laura, trust me! I'll tell you what happened..." Clara explained anxiously to Helena.

"Stop lying, I watched the video online. It clearly showed that you pushed Laura. Helena didn't listen to Clara's explanation at all. She grabbed Clara and walked inside the hospital, "Go! Apologize to Laura and ask for her forgiveness!" Right now!"

"No, I didn't do anything wrong!" Clara stood still stubbornly. She would never apologize to Laura.

"Are you trying to piss me off?" Helena coughed. At the same time, she pulled Clara harder, "You have to apologize to Laura today!"

Seeing Helena coughing, Clara was worried. She stopped struggling and was dragged into Laura's hospital room by Helena.

Logan and Horace were there. Laura was resting. The wounds on her face had been bandaged.

Seeing Helena pull Clara in, Laura hurriedly sat up from the bed, "Aunt Helena?"

"Don't move, don't move!" Helena rushed forward and stopped Laura from getting up. Looking at Laura, whose face was covered in bandages, Helena's eyes were full of sorry. "Are you okay?"

"I am fine." Taking Helena's hand, Laura replied, "It doesn't hurt, don't worry."

"How come?" Helena's tears flowed again. "I'm sorry, Laura, it's all Clara's bad, I've scolded her, please forgive her, she will apologize to you now."

Helena then turned around and said angrily to Clara, "Apologize to Laura!"

"Mom!" Seeing Helena siding with Laura, Clara shouted, "I didn't push her, her injury has nothing to do with me, trust me!"

Seeing that Clara not only refused to apologize, but also kept making excuses, Helena pointed at Clara furiously, and couldn't speak a word.

"Aunt Helena, please don't be angry." Laura stroked Helena's back, "I'm sure Clara didn't mean it. She might be a little bit out of control seeing me and Horace being close."

With that, Laura looked at Clara and said earnestly, "Clara, it was urgent last time, that was why Horace took me to the hospital. Please, don't misunderstand. I came back only because I remembered what had happened. I would never get between you and Horace. You can rest assured."

"Laura, stop acting victim!" Laura seemed to be interceding for Clara. But every word she said implied that Clara had deliberately hurt her out of jealousy. Clara couldn't suppress her anger.

"You know what happened today. You know how you got hurt. You confessed to me that you escaped the fire by yourself. But now, in front of everyone, you dare not admit it?"

Hearing Clara's words, Helena gave her another slap,
