Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 332

It was Horace. He was sitting at the dining table not far away.

Wearing a white shirt, he still looked as good as someone in a novel, but at this time, he was having dinner with Laura. She didn't know what they were talking about but Laura was laughing very happily.

They attended this banquet as well.

Seeing this scene, Clara felt a little uncomfortable. She knew that Horace didn't like to attend this kind of banquet. He thought it was too noisy, so he would usually find an excuse to turn it down.

It turned out that he just didn't meet the one who he was willing to go with at that time.

She lowered her head and bit her lip to suppress the unhappiness that rose in her heart. She couldn't let herself get annoyed by such a trivial matter.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her changing look, Andre asked with concern, "Are you not feeling well?"

"No, it's nothing." Clara forced a smile at him.

She was afraid that Horace would see Neo with her; in this case, he might become suspicious about the last time when Logan had sent someone to pretend to be Neo's parents so as to pick him up. Then she whispered to Neo, "Go back to your room and wait for me, okay? Mommy will come back in a while."

"Okay, mom, don't worry. I'll wait in the room." Neo climbed off the chair and ran away.

Neo left the restaurant happily and made a victory gesture, with a big smile on his lovely face.

It seems that his plan has been going on well. Mom didn't know that it was his real purpose to get them to meet when he was making a fuss about coming to the cruise ship.

And he didn't think that he would meet him so easily. He saw he was sitting next to him just now, but he was afraid that his mom would be angry, so he could only pretend not to see it.

She asked him to come back, which was because she saw him too. It was great! As long as they met, they would be reconciled soon.

Thinking about the pictures of mom and dad taking him for a walk together, Neo was getting more excited than when he first saw the cruise ship.

Horace was facing Clara, so he soon noticed her.

He didn't expect to meet her here. A smile touched his eyes but it was quickly replaced by anger.

Who is that man sitting opposite her?

That man was getting her food from time to time and even tried to reach out to help her wipe the sauce off her mouth. And Horace clenched his fist so tightly that his nails almost cut his palms.

Fortunately, Clara avoided him in time and did not let him succeed. But what's up with that smile on her face! She was shy? Shouldn't she just put the plate on his face in this case?

Horace stared at the man in front of him with mean eyes, wishing he could just kill him with his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Laura asked curiously when Horace looked behind her with a cold face, then turned her head to follow his sight.

After seeing them, Laura showed a satisfied smile.

She didn't expect it went on so well. But she didn't know what were they to each other.

Then she deliberately said to Horace, "I didn't know Clara is here too. It should be her boyfriend. They seem to be a good match."

She saw his blue face and said that on purpose to make it worse.

"I heard from a friend who works in Hutchinson Corp that there is a rich and handsome man who is madly pursuing Clara some time ago. It must be him. Now it seems that they have been together. It's a date, quite romantic."

Horace squeezed the knife and fork in his hand and did not speak.

Laura kept watching him and saw that he cared about Clara so much. She couldn't help feeling sad.

She thought, Clara already has someone else. Just let go. Can't they settle down?

Can't he see that there is a better woman by his side who loves him more?

Horace was very annoyed when he saw Clara with a man. And now he felt that every word Laura said was stabbing his heart like a knife.

"Help yourself. I have something to do." Horace picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth. Then he got up.

"How could you treat me like this!" Laura never thought that he would leave her here alone crassly.

Horace was very impatient at that moment, "Laura, you wanted to come here, saying that this is your birthday wish, so I brought you here. You should know that I am only accompanying you as a friend. I came here purely because it is inconvenient for you to be alone and you need someone to take care of you. There is no love between you and me. Do not misunderstand our relationship. For the last time, you are not my girlfriend. Please recognize yourself clearly."

Such ruthless words made Laura feel embarrassed. She didn't expect him to speak so bluntly.

"But you said that you'll be responsible for me in this life!" She couldn't help trembling.

"I'll keep my word and take care of you for the rest of your life. But it doesn't mean I'll marry you. Please, just drop your fantasies about our relationship. It's impossible."

Then he left.

His recent experience told him that if he didn't act like this, Laura would not have taken his words seriously. She would continue to claim to be his girlfriend in her way.

Laura clenched the knife and fork in her hands and her eyes were filled with anger.

Horace, I have treated you wholeheartedly for so many years, how could you say such things to me just because of that bitch!

She pushed the wheelchair and tried to follow him away. Unexpectedly, he did not leave the restaurant but walked to Clara and Andre's table.

She couldn't help trembling all over...

What was he trying to do?

Her question was quickly answered. Horace stopped in front of the two.

"I wonder if I could join you for dinner?" Horace asked politely but his cold eyes were fixed on Andre.
