Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 258

Hearing Logan's words, Laura felt aggrieved and shouted, "It's not my fault! It's all Clara's own fault! She wanted to take Horace away from me! I wouldn't have done this if she had left Horace!"

"Laura…" Logan was so pissed that he didn't even know what to say and felt helpless. "Clara and Horace are already married. They are legally husband and wife. You should leave them alone. Do you want to be a homewrecker?"

"I don't care! Horace is mine! He's mine!" Laura shouted excitedly. "She has no right to be with him! I knew him first and I am the only woman who deserves him!"

Laura then walked up to Logan, grabbed his arm and said in a pleading tone, "Logan, just stay out of this, okay? If Horace found out that Clara had been raped, he would leave her and be with me. Logan, just stay out of…"

Unable to bear to listen to her words, Logan slapped her again. "How could you do such a thing just to get Horace back? Laura, you used to be just a girl with pride, when did you become the cruel woman as you are now?"

"Logan!" being slapped by him again, Laura broke down and cried. Pointing at Clara, she shouted, "How could you say that about me? How could you slap me twice for that bitch?"

Seeing that there was a brick on the ground, she bent over to pick it up and then threw it at Clara. Logan hadn't expected she would do this and couldn't stop her in time.

Seeing the brick coming at her, Clara tilted her head to dodge it. Although it didn't hit her head, her forehead was scratched by it and it bled.

"Are you okay?" Logan hurriedly ran to her and checked her forehead. The scratched part of her forehead kept bleeding.

Clara nodded her head weakly, but the slight movement made her feel her head was about to explode. She frowned tightly and dared not move again.

She had been exhausted from the struggling just now, and now, after being hit by the brick, she could clearly feel her blood was oozing out. Her sight blurred and she felt dizzy.

Seeing her squinting her eyes in pain, Logan carried her in his arms. "Hang on, I'll get you to the hospital."

"We'll talk after I get back!" Logan carried Clara out of the warehouse after saying the words to Laura.

"Ah!" Laura screamed in anger and hatred upon seeing them leave. "Clara, it's all because of you! If it weren't for you, Horace would still be mine! If it weren't for you, Logan would never slap me! He has been my closest family! It's all your fault!"

Her screaming echoed in the empty warehouse. She wiped her tears with her arm and clenched her fists. Hatred filled her heart.

"Clara, you got lucky this time. But you won't be next time!"

…

In a trance, Clara felt she was in a warm embrace, someone's arms. She felt safe in them.

The person kept telling her that everything was okay. It was a familiar voice. Who was it? It sounded like Logan, was it him? She remembered that it was him who saved her. He always came to her rescue.

"Lo… Logan…" she called his name weakly, wanting to make sure. She wanted to open her eyes, but in vain. She felt dizzy.

Seeing her moving her lips, Logan couldn't listen clear to what she was saying. He could only shout and comfort her, "Clara, it's Logan! Can you hear me? Hang on, I will get you to the hospital soon!"

It was really him. Clara was relieved, then she passed out.

In the CEO's office in the Solrace Corporation.

Horace frowned and hang up the phone again. What was with Isaac? He didn't come to work and he didn't answer his phone calls.

He called one of his assistants named Janice in, and said, "I need to see Isaac, find him for me."

"What?" Janice, who was called in, felt confused. Horace usually called Isaac directly when he needed him, why would he ask her to call Isaac here?" Although confused, she answered, "Okay, I will call him right now."

"I can't get through to him, you'll have to try other means to find him."

"Got it," Janice paused before she nodded and answered.

After leaving Horace's office, she was speechless. It turned out Horace asked her to find Isaac because he couldn't get through to him. But as a highly-skilled Internet user, this was a piece of cake for her.

She soon posted on her Facebook and Twitter, "Anyone who has seen Isaac, please tell him Mr. Kirkland wants to see him."

"Done!" She sat back in her chair. With everyone's help, Isaac should be here soon.

Sure enough, about a quarter later, Isaac rushed over, gasping. Seeing him here, Janice pointed at Horace's office door.

Smiling gratefully at her, Isaac rested for a while before he went in.

"Sir, you want to see me?"

"Yeah. Why didn't you answer my calls?" Horace asked unhappily.

"I'm sorry, sir. I lost my phone. I just bought a new one, but I haven't bought a number yet. I promise this won't happen again."

"I see." Horace looked better when he heard Isaac's explanation. "Send me the clients' profiles I asked you to sort out before. I need them ASAP."

"Okay, I'll send them over right now." Then Isaac went back to his desk.

There came several knocks on the door a while later.

"What's the matter?" Horace was reading a planning and asked without raising his head.

"Sir, your brother is here to see you," Janice replied.

Horace's hand that was about to turn the page paused. He was confused. Sean seldom came to see him.

"Let him in."

"Yes, sir," Janice answered and left.
