Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 297

"What?" Clara felt as if struck by lightning upon hearing the doctor's words. Didn't Horace make a prenatal check-up for her? He asked the doctor to abort the baby?

Then, Clara thought of something and was on the verge of breaking down. Horace had been lying to her the whole time! He had never actually accepted the child and he even wanted to have her abort the baby before she realized it!

She struggled out of the nurses' grip and jumped down from the bed, then she ran out of the operating room with bare feet. Tears fell down her eyes and she felt so desperate. How could he do this to her? She couldn't bring herself to believe it, she had to ask him face to face!

Running out of the hospital, Clara saw Isaac waiting outside the car. She couldn't care less about what a mess she was in now, grabbed his arm and asked, "Isaac, tell me what's going on here! Does Horace really want to kill the baby?"

Isaac's face had changed the second he saw Clara run out of the hospital. Hearing her questioning, he dared not look at her in the eyes. He lowered his head with guilty and helplessness.

"Yes," a while later, he answered.

Hearing this word, Clara felt worn out. She slowly let go of his arm and her eyes were written with disbelief.

"How could it be? How could he lie to me like that?" she murmured while weeping, "He wouldn't, I don't believe it…"

Although she said so, she had believed in Isaac's words just now. Isaac was the person whom Horace trusted the most, he must be telling the truth.

It turned out all his care and gentleness for her in the past few days were fake. This was what he really wanted. But if he really hated the child, he could have told her and they could get a divorce, why would he do this?

"Catch her, now!" As she was in distraught, she heard footsteps coming at her from behind.

She turned around and saw that the doctor and nurses had rushed out of the hospital, chasing after her.

"Isaac, get me out of…" She grabbed Isaac's hand subconsciously and wanted him to get her out of here.

It suddenly dawned on her that Isaac was asked to take her here by Horace, which meant he wouldn't help her escape. In fact, he might help those people get her back on the operation table.

Thinking of this, she immediately let go of his hand, stepped back and ran across the street. She couldn't be caught by them, no one could hurt her child!

Watching her running away, Isaac clenched his fists with guilty all over his face. "I'm sorry. I'm really sorry…"

As he was murmuring to himself, the phone in his pocket suddenly buzzed. Taking out his phone and seeing the caller ID, there was hatred in his eyes.

"How's it going?" a woman said leisurely on the phone.

"I have done what you asked me to, let go of my parents!" Isaac shouted at the phone.

The woman chuckled and said, "Don't worry, as long as you follow my orders, I'll keep them safe."

"You'd better keep your promise!"

"Got it," after saying that impatiently, the woman hung up the phone.

Holding his phone tightly in his hand, Isaac was so angry that his veins bulged. After making sure his parents were safe, he wouldn't let her go!

On the other side, Clara was still running like crazy on the street. With no shoes on and in a patient gown that she was changed into in the hospital just now, she looked like a mess. The so-called doctor and nurses were still chasing after her.

The passers-by were all looking at her and pointing fingers.

"Did she run out from an asylum?"

"I think so. How would ordinary people run on the streets like that with doctor and nurses following her?"

"Should we call the police?"

"Forget it. It's none of our business anyway."

Clara had heard some of the discussions while she was running, but she had no time to care about what others said. There was only one thought in her mind now: run! She couldn't go back to the hospital, or her baby's life would be in danger.

Thinking of this, as if she was blessed with magic power all of a sudden, she ran at the fastest speed she could in her while life. After running for not knowing how long, she finally got rid of them.

Bending over and gasping for air, she kept looking behind. It was not until she made sure she was safe now that she finally felt relieved.

After she got better, she took out her phone and wanted to call Horace. She had to know why on earth he did this to her.

With anger in her chest, she called him while thinking about how to condemn him. He had gone too far this time and she would never forgive him!

However, no one answered the phone. Hanging up the phone, she called again but still, no one answered.

Was he feeling guilty about answering her phone right now? Clara suppressed her impulse to throw her phone away and thought that it made sense. Isaac must have told him about her running away and he must be avoiding her now.

Standing there and trying to calm down, she hailed a taxi and asked the driver to send her home.

He would have to go home, right? Then she would wait for him at home. This time, she would make it clear to him that she would divorce him immediately if he couldn't take the baby in and that he didn't need to play such a disgusting trick on her.

After she arrived, regardless of her feet that had gotten injured during the running, she ran towards the house, thinking that maybe Horace was at home right now. She wanted to confront him!

However, when she opened the door, she saw a pair of familiar high heels. After thinking for a while, she realized that she had seen Laura in these shoes.

Was Laura here right now? What was she doing here?
