Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 334

Clara took a few deep breaths as she came onto the deck. Who did Horace think was she? Something that could be discarded at any time?

The presence of Andre was already quite embarrassing for her. And now the appearance of Horace made her determined to leave here soon.

Clara stared at the endless sea in front of her and then closed her eyes to feel the gentle sea breeze. She felt much calmer and a sense of enjoyment climbed on her face.

"Shall we have a talk, Clara?"

The familiar voice rose from behind. Clara felt as if there were a piece of rock pressing on her heart. She turned away and tried to leave without even looking at her ex-husband.

But Horace took her arm, "Please, Clara."

"There's no need to talk," Clara tried to shake him off but she failed. Seeing Horace refuse to let her go, she felt angry again, "Let me go!"

"I won't let you go!" Horace moved even closer and took the other arm of hers, "Listen to me, Clara, I would sign the divorce agreement because Laura…"

Horace tried to explain, but Clara couldn't calm to listen to him.

"That's none of my business! We've already divorced. Now let me go." Clara struggled but Horace still held her tightly.

Horace pressed her arms behind her back to held her in his arms and he shouted to her, "Trust me, Clara! Laura has nothing to do with me. You are the woman I love!"

"You make me disgusted. I've known who you are. You make a good match for Laura. I know how you two deal with other people. You'd better marry her, bastard. I hate you! I hate you!"

Seldom did Clara curse other people. But today she knew that anger could actually boost her skills of roasting someone.

Clara tried so hard to held her tightly in his arms. Horace was a bit tired and he didn't mind what she said. After all, he knew she would say those because she was in great anger.

Horace couldn't calm her down anymore, so he took a few steps forward to press her on the railings.

"It was because of me that Laura's legs were disabled. It's my responsibility to look after her these years. She is just a friend of mine." Horace moved closer to stop Clara from escaping.

Clara also stopped and looked at Horace confusedly. She didn't know what Horace was talking about.

As she finally calmed down, Horace quickly explained to her what happened that year.

"When I received the divorce agreement sent by Logan and I heard you're going to Europe with him, I did try to get you back at the airport. But Laura tried to stop me. I pushed her away but she accidentally fell down the stairs."

"Then she fell into coma and I sent her to the hospital. That's why I failed to chase you. After the surgery, the doctor told me she hurt the nerves on her legs. Maybe she had to spend her whole life on wheelchair."

"It was I who pushed her down the stairs so when she asked me to stay with her, I was in no position to refuse. Then I took her back home to look after her."

Clara didn't know what happened five years ago. Now if his explanation was true, then it was understandable why he chose to stay with Laura.

Clara was almost convinced by his words. But her hatred for Horace possessed her again. After all, Horace chose to get divorced with her only because in his mind Laura was more important.

Now as he decided to take care of Laura and he had been doing so for five years, why did he announce that he would remarry her soon? What did he want on earth?

Clara struggled again and said, "Then you should take care of her your whole life. Now what are you doing? Don't you think you can get Laura and me at the same time!"

Horace held the railings tightly in case Clara might got away.

"No, I have no such idea. I love you, Clara. I would take care of her for five years only because I feel guilty for her. I swear, she is only a friend of mine. I planned when she could live independently, I would go to Europe to find you. But then I found I couldn't stand the days without you anymore."

"I love you. My heart is only for you. I will get crazy if you're not with me. Now you're finally back to my world. I love you. I love you, Clara."

In Clara's mind, it wasn't like Horace to express his love as such. It was even rare for him to smile to others.

But today she heard him expressing his love for her time and time again. She was quite moved.

Now she felt her face were burning as Horace fixed his eyes on her. She could sense love, guilt, firmness. She felt as if he were imploring her to forgive him.

Even when they were close to each other five years ago, Horace's eyes were not as affectionate as now.

Clara was shocked by the mixed emotions in his eyes. Now she felt like holding Horace in her arms and pressing her head on his broad chest.

Horace noticed the trace of love for him in her eyes and was ravished with joy. He wanted to kiss her red lips to show how he missed her.

He warned himself not to get too hurried and then said gently, "I feel so sorry for your abortion, Clara. It's my fault."

A sense of guilt flashed in Horace's eyes. When Clara lost her child, she must feel as agonized as Laura. But he was not with her at that time.

And her abortion was his fault. If he chose to protect the baby instead of rejecting him, maybe he might not have left this world before he could see it.
