Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 367

"No, it's not like that. You're lying. You're lying!" Laura broke down, pointed at the doctor, and cursed, "I don't even know you. You're just bullshitting!"

"This young lady, you can't deny it now." The doctor said in a panic, "You were the one who gave me a sum of money back then to tell this gentleman that his wife had been defiled. To keep this gentleman from being suspicious again, you also told me to tell him that his wife had selective amnesia due to the trauma and that it would be best not to ask her about the incident to keep her from having a nervous breakdown."

"I did everything you told me to do; now, how can you say I'm talking nonsense? I'm not taking the blame for you."

"You're talking nonsense, nonsense, it's all nonsense..." Laura couldn't find the words to retort for a moment at the revelation and could only keep mumbling the phrase.

How had things come to this? How had Sean suddenly come clean with Horace about it? Why she couldn't understand; what was going on?

Seeing Laura like this, Horace was convinced by the doctor and Sean's words.

How could it be? How could things turn out this way? For the first time, Horace didn't know how to face his mistake.

So, Clara hadn't been raped back then, so the baby in her belly... was his! Realizing this, Horace could not help but slap himself in the face.

All those images from the past came back to him, Clara's happy face when she told him she was pregnant, the look of disappointment and pain in her eyes when she heard he didn't want the baby, her crying and begging him to believe her words that the baby was theirs, her insisting that Laura had set her up...

And what about himself? Instead of believing her words and appropriately protecting her and the baby, he even persuaded her repeatedly and forced her to abort the baby.

It's all his fault! If it wasn't for him, how could she have lost her child, the child he had been hoping for with Clara, who belonged to both of them and suffered a miscarriage?

It was their first child, and it had disappeared because of his mistake, without a glimpse of the world.

"Horace, I came here today to set this straight with you. Now, do you believe what I said? And..."

Without waiting for Sean to finish, Horace's angry roar cut him off.

"Get the hell out of here!" Horace finally exploded, grabbing the phone in his hand and smashing it at Sean, "Get the hell out of here. I'll settle with you later!"

Sean's face looked grim as the phone hit him square in the face.

No one had ever thrown anything at him since he was a kid. Even his grandfather had only reprimanded him when he was angry. What kind of a bastard was Horace? How dare he do that to him!

Sean couldn't bear to go up to Horace and punch him hard, but today's situation was extraordinary. It was his fault, and Clara had evidence that he had bribed an officer.

The most important thing now was to find Clara, having done what she had told him to do and hoping she wouldn't leak the information. Otherwise, even if he died, he would drag her along!

With a hostile glance at Horace, Sean suppressed his anger and turned to leave.
