Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 340

Tears flowed through her nose into the corners of her mouth. Clara waited desperately for the sound of the gunshots.

But the pain did not come as expected. Instead, she heard the screams of the kidnapper.

Opening her eyes, Clara saw that the kidnapper was now lying on the ground with his hands on his shoulders, moaning in pain.

Horace was pointing the gun at the kidnapper, wiping the blood on the corner of his mouth with his thumb.

Just now when he saw the kidnapper approaching Clara step by step, his heart was about to jump out. Taking advantage of the kidnapper's inattention, Horace rushed to the kidnapper's back with one stride, grabbed his arm with the gun, and twisted it backward.

The kidnapper screamed as his shoulders were broken. Horace kicked the kidnapper to the ground, picked up the gun that had landed on the ground, and pointed it at the kidnapper.

He was glad that since he was kidnapped with Laura fifteen years ago, he had started practicing martial arts.

Realizing she was safe, Clara finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on her knees, trying to calm her heart.

Seeing that the kidnapper's gun had been taken down by Horace, the crowd no longer had scruples. They all stood up and surrounded the kidnapper. Some people even kicked him angrily.

The kidnapper struggled and tried to escape, but people got a rope from the waiter and tied him up. Then, they began to scold him angrily.

They were all people from the upper class. They had never been subjected to such grievances and intimidation. At this time, they do not care about any etiquette and demeaners.

"Who do you think you are?"

"How dare you hold the entire cruise hostage?"

"Call the police! He had committed a huge crime. He will spend the rest of his life in prison."

"Why did you even step into the stock market if you couldn't afford the losses? If all the shareholders are like you, how do we do business?"

"Call the police, call the police. I informed the police officer I knew. I want this man to die in prison. He won't get a chance to turn around for the rest of his life! Damn, he spoiled my fun!"

...

Without the fear just now, everyone had a look of deep hatred for the kidnapper. They wished he would be killed immediately.

Gagged with a napkin, the kidnapper could only groan, his eyes full of reluctance and resentment.

Soon, the police arrived. They asked what happened and took the kidnapper with them. The crowd also dispersed after that.

Horace, on the other hand, came to Clara after subduing the kidnapper, caressing her back with his hand to soothe her emotions. Looking at Clara, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground, Horace's eyes were full of pain.

She must have been frightened just now? If he had acted slower, he probably won't be able to see her again. How could she be so stupid?

Feeling moved, Horace took Clara into his arms and comforted her, "It's all right, don't be afraid, it's okay now."

Clara was indeed freaked out. She leaned into Horace's arms, feeling a little relieved.

The two hugged silently for a long time. Clara finally calmed down. When she realized that she was in Horace's arms, she blushed and immediately broke free.

"Are you okay?" Horace looked at Clara with concern and asked, feeling a little lost at her movement of breaking away from him. Did she still refuse to return to him?

"I'm fine." Shaking her head, Clara stood up.

But her legs were a little numb. She stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Horace caught her in time.

Half leaning into Horace's arms, Clara was a little embarrassed. If she let go now, she would definitely fall to the ground again, so she could only rely on Horace for the time being.

Horace enjoyed this rare intimate moment. How long had it been since the last time Clara leaned against him quietly as she did now? Since she returned, it seemed as if every time they met, they would argue.

Horace always felt that Clara had misunderstood her, but every time he tried to ask her, she became cold, if not angry. She didn't want to talk about what had happened.

"Clara, why are you..." Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Horace wanted to ask what had happened. Why was she so determined to divorce and even go abroad without telling him face to face?

"Is what he just said true?" Clara opened her mouth at the same time, and then looked at Horace with some apology.

Giving her a look that was okay, Horace put aside his question for a moment, looked at Clara with some doubt, and asked, "What?"

"You released Solare's client data for my sake?"

After hesitating, Horace nodded. He had kept it to himself in order not to make her feel guilty, but in the end, she knew it, in such a way.

"After Sean kidnapped you, he threatened me, saying that he would only release you if I released the company's client data. I had no other choice, and I was anxious about your safety, so I could only agree."

"Is it worth it for me to do this?" Clara was a little moved. Being with Logan all these years, she knew that doing so would destroy Horace's career.

"I can give up everything for you. Clara, you're the one who matters most to me." Horace took her hand and said, "You were, you are and you will be forever."

"Clara, you wanted to sacrifice yourself to save me today. You still care about me, right? Let's start all over again, please, okay?"

Horace stared closely into Clara's eyes. He was sincere.

Touched by the undisguised affection in Horace's eyes, Clara hesitated. Could they really go back to the old days?
