Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 247

Clara tried to take back her hand, but Darren grabbed it tighter. He looked a little excited as he said, "Clara, now that Ashlee is gone, let's get back together, I would never doubt you like before, I..."

"Darren!" Clara raised her voice to interrupt Darren. At the same time, she got rid of Darren's hand and stood up. For a moment the atmosphere got a little awkward.

Seeing that Clara was angry, Darren came back to his senses. He shouldn't have proposed that now Clara had just experienced such a thing.

"Clara, I'm sorry, I was too hasty. If you don't like it, I won't propose such things again."

Looking at Darren, who was apologizing, Clara felt that he had changed a lot. Darren would never have spoken to her like that before.

Since Darren had apologized, Clara stopped being angry. Sitting down again, Clara shifted the subject and asked, "When is Ashlee's funeral?"

"This Sunday." Darren's heart was relieved to see that Clara was no longer angry. It seemed that he had to take it slowly. "Will you attend the funeral?"

"Yes," Clara nodded, "she's my sister after all."

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

"Thank you." Clara looked at Darren gratefully. He had been arranging Ashlee's funerals these days, it must have been a lot of work.

"Don't mention it. It's my duty." Darren's eyes were filled with affection.

Realizing that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two of them now, Clara quickly looked away, "I need to go back to work now."

After nodding slightly at Darren, Clara hurried out of Darren's office.

Watching Clara leave, Darren had a confident smile on his face. "Clara, I will make you come back to me. I thought Horace was right for you, but now it seems I was wrong." Darren murmured.

As soon as she returned to her desk and sat down, Clara noticed another commotion around her. These people would never stop.

Thinking that everyone was going to continue to taunt her, Clara looked up, a little annoyed, but unexpectedly, she saw Laura walking towards her.

Laura was in a pink dress and a pair of red high heels. The wound on her face was almost healed.

What was she here for! Clara was alert. Whatever for, it won't be anything good.

"Oh my God, is that Laura?"

"She's even more beautiful than on the screen. It's such a pity, that wound on her face! What if it leaves a scar?" The person glared at Clara fiercely after saying that, couldn't forgive her for hurting such a beautiful woman.

"But she looks more mysterious now, no? I now understand why Clara did that. I won't be confident facing such an enemy in love either."

"What does Laura come to Clara for? Claim Horace?"

"I suppose. But she has the right..."

Listening to the discussion of the people around her, Clara couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Was everyone deceived by Laura's seemingly weak appearance?

"What are you doing here?" Seeing Laura walk up to her, Clara asked in a cold voice.

Looking around at all the people around, Laura smiled and said, "Are you sure you want to talk here?"

Clara stood up and walked straight to the pantry. She didn't want to act in front of those people for free either.

At the pantry, Clara looked at Laura who had followed, and asked, "Now we can talk, what do you want?"

Laura spun around the pantry for a moment before slowly saying, "You work here? It doesn't look good. Wouldn't Horace feel ashamed of you?"

"It's none of your business."

"What if I say it is?" Laura looked at Clara aggressively.

"What the hell do you want?" Clara asked sharply. She didn't want to talk nonsense.

Seeing Clara's angry expression, Laura smiled triumphantly, "I came here to check the result of my work, of course."

Laura looked at Clara playfully and said, "I told you that people won't believe you, they will only believe me. I'm not wrong, right?"

"Clara, you are innocent, but no one in the world believes you, how does that feel? To be honest, I feel sorry for you. Even your husband and mother chose not to believe you. How pathetic you are!"

"Did you come here to say these things?" Clara asked as calmly as possible.

"Yeah, I came here to tell you that. Also, people here would pay more attention to you after my visit, no? Laura stared at Clara grimly, "I just want you to be expelled everywhere, as a punishment for stealing things from me."

Looking at Laura's arrogant posture, Clara wanted to go straight up and slap her, but she told herself over and over again that she couldn't get angry.

Clara knew that Laura had come here to trigger her. If she failed to control herself, people would judge her even more.

Holding back her anger, Clara said coldly, "Are you done? If so, you can leave."

Unexpectedly, Clara was not enraged as she was last time. Laura snorted coldly and whispered in Clara's ear, "I'll take back whatever belongs to be, not a doubt." After saying that, Laura got up slightly and looked at Clara in defiance

Laura's words sounded very familiar. Clara felt she had seen them somewhere. After thinking for a moment, Clara remembered that "Back2Past" had said the same thing, that "Things should also return to their owners."

"You're 'Back2Past '!" Clara pointed at Laura and asked in disbelief.

"You finally knew." Laura scoffed, "Clara, are you really naïve, or just stupid?"
