Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 337

The two was also scared as they didn't know what happened there.

"It might be pirates!" Andre said.

He heard that cruise ships are always the target for pirates as the passengers were generally rich. But he didn't expect that the unlucky guy today was him.

Andre wanted to drive the speed boat away instantly. but Clara still stopped him and refused to let him go, "Neo is still on that cruise ship! I can't go. I have to save my child."

"It's too dangerous. We have to call the police first," Andre took Clara's arm in case she would board the cruise ship alone, "You may lose your life! You need to calm down, Clara."

"But Neo is still on the cruise ship!" Clara said worriedly, "I will get him first and you go and call the police."

Hearing her words, Andre was still hesitating.

"Please, I have to get onto the cruise ship. You're just wasting time here!" Clara urged him and she was about to cry. Her Neo might be in danger now!

"I'll go with you," Andre finally made the decision. He didn't want to let a woman to risk her life alone.

They parked the boat beside the cruise ship and boarded it.

Then they saw the passengers were all crouching in the main hall with their hands covering their head. And a man with an anxious face was threatening them with a gun in hand.

But from her position, Clara could see clearly how the man's hand holding the gun was trebling. He didn't look like a pirate as he looked so nervous.

Seemingly, he was the only robber. But the gun in his hand still made the passengers follow his orders.

Clara looked around and didn't find Neo. She heaved a sigh of relief. Her child must still be in her room. Maybe the robber hadn't found him yet.

She pointed at the deck to hint Andre that they could sneak aback to her room through the deck.

Andre knew what she meant and he walked over to Clara to protect her. Finally, they managed to get to Clara's room without letting the robber see them.

As Clara opened the door, she began to find her child. But Neo wasn't in that room. Clara suddenly felt anxious.

"Are you there, Neo?" Clara said in a low voice. Though she indeed wanted to cry, she believed that her child could be safe as he was a smart.

But he was a five-year-old boy after all. Clara couldn't hold her tears anymore and shouted, "Are you there, Neo? Please, it's mom!"

"I'm here, mom!" Neo's voice rose from the wardrobe as Clara was about to go crazy.

Clara quickly opened the door and saw Neo was curling his body inside it and was fixing his eyes on Clara with joy.

"Are you alright?" Clara quickly held Neo in arms and checked if he was hurt.

"I'm fine, mom. Why do you come so late!"

When Neo felt quite happy as he saw Clara. But now he felt he was wronged. He was so scared when he was alone in the wardrobe.

Clara held Neo in arms tightly and cried, "Sorry, Neo. It was my fault. I shouldn't have left you here alone. I'm sorry…"

"I'm fine, mom. Don't cry," Neo wrapped tears off her face, "I was playing in the room and I suddenly heard someone shouting outside so I hid myself in the wardrobe quickly."

Clara stroked his head and sad, "You are so smart, Neo."

"We've found Neo and we should leave here now, Clara. I am afraid that the robber may find us." Andre urged.

"Okay," Clara wrapped her tears off her face and held Neo in arms before she went out with Andre. They did need to leave right now.

They followed their way here back to the deck. As they were near their speed boat, they heard someone shouting in the main hall.

"Where is Horace Kirkland?"

Clara paused at this question. She couldn't help but worry Horace's safety. Was Horace the robber's target this time?

Though she loathed Horace, he was Neo's father and her loved one after all. Clara couldn't leave here as if she didn't hear his name.

She sneaked to a corner close to the main hall. She crouched and was sure that the robber couldn't see her in the main hall. She wanted to know what was going on there.

"What happened, Clara? We need to leave here now!" Andre saw Clara stopped and walked over to her and whispered to her, "Did you hear me, Clara?"

"Be quiet!" Clara pressed her finger on her mouth to ask Andre not to say anything. She was afraid that their talk might let the robber notice.

Neo also did the same to Andre in his mother's arms. Worry was written all over his tiny face. He also heard his father's name from the robber. Was he in danger?

Andre felt even more worried but he couldn't do anything to stop them. Did they know they might lose their life here?

But he couldn't leave them here now. So, he crouched beside them and remained silent.

They saw a slender figure before the robber and the appearance of the figure made Clara felt heartache instantly.

It was Horace.

Horace looked quite calm and he stood upright to ask the robber, "You're here for me? Why?"

The robber didn't wear a mask and he looked like a normal middle-aged man. He heard Horace's question and shouted in rage, "Why? That's a good question. You should ask yourself that question. What did you do five years ago?"
