Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 243

"Do you believe them and think I deliberately hurt Laura?" Clara's eyes had turned red.

Horace didn't speak. But Clara knew his attitude in this silence. Horace didn't believe her!

Clara laughed self-deprecatingly and turned away. She didn't want to explain anymore.

The instant she turned around, Clara lost control of her tears. She felt aggrieved and angry.

The kidnapping that happened ten years ago had nothing to do with Clara. Because of Horace, she had been pestering Laura, asking questions. However, now, no one believed her, not even Horace. Clara suddenly felt that all she had done was pointless.

Seeing that Clara was leaving, Horace grabbed her by the hand. When Clara turned around, Horace found her in tears.

Clara stubbornly looked away, which made Horace heartache.

"Clara, I didn't say you hurt Laura on purpose. But you've been weird lately, is it because of Laura? Horace said softly, "There's nothing going on between me and Laura. You are unlike yourself because of her. Don't."

"Unlike me?" Getting rid of Horace's hand, Clara met Horace's gaze and said self-deprecatingly, "So what am I like in your heart now? A malicious woman? Or a jealous wife?"

"Clara!" Horace sounded a little angry. He stepped forward and grabbed Clara. "Do you have to argue with me? You know I didn't mean that. Stop being dramatic, please."

"Dramatic?" Clara was speechless hearing that. Did Horace think it was all her fault?

"Enough, I don't want to talk to you anymore!" Clara calmed herself down a little and then broke free of Horace's grip, and walked outside the hospital, saying, "I need some peace."

Horace looked at Clara's back. He didn't stop her from leaving this time, for he knew that it would only make things worse. He didn't want to argue with Clara.

Walking out of the hospital, Clara saw Helena rushing over.

"Mom, what are you doing here?" Clara hurried forward. She was surprised to see Helena.

Yet Helena slapped her just as she went over. Clara was stunned, not knowing what to do for a moment

Feeling the pain in her face, Clara gradually came back to her senses. With one hand covering her face, Clara slowly looked back at Helena in disbelief, crying, "Mom, why?"

Helena cried even harder. Her hand that slapped Clara was trembling. She pointed at Clara and asked angrily, "Why? Tell me, how can you hurt Laura's face because of jealousy?"

Clara realized that Helena had come to see Laura. She slapped her for Laura, without even asking what happened.
