Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 553

"The Jocelyn did so because she loved dad."

Neo's words shocked Clara. She didn't know why Jocelyn was so hostile to her. Now she understood.

"How did you know that?"

"She kept staring at dad at the banquet."

That's why.

But Clara was still blaming Horace in his mind. Even Neo had known what had happened.

Neo also knew what was in his mother's mind. But he could only console her, "Don't bother, mom. I'm with you."

Then he twinkled his eyes and that made Clara feel quite happy.

At least, Neo trusted her.

She was just trying to check what was inside the box. But Jocelyn said she was going to steal it.

She did like that box. But she would never steal it.

With Neo's hand in hand, Clara was still wondering how Horace would apologize to her when he got back home.

Clara had made up her mind that if Horace failed to give her a reasonable explanation, she wouldn't forgive him.

Then she called a taxi and got back home with Neo.

She wanted to walk back home alone. But now with the presence of Neo, she was afraid that it would make Neo feel tired.

So, she called a taxi.

As soon as they arrived, Clara asked Neo to take his class as the tutor had already arrived.

Clara had replaced all the tutors of Neo except Leilah since Neo told her how incompetent some of his tutors were.

She didn't want any unqualified tutor to teach Neo.

Clara got back to her bed room and grabbed something to eat on her bed.

She hadn't eaten anything on her bed before. But today she was not in the mood to eat anything beside the table.

Then Clara soon got asleep on her bed.

That's why when Horace got back, he saw potato chips spread all over the bed and some chips where even on her face.

Horace took the chip bag away and then threw the chips on the bed into the dustbin one after another.

When he finished, Clara had woken up.

She suddenly opened her eyes and that scared Horace a little bit.

Then he smiled at Clara, "Do you feel hungry? We can have dinner together downstairs."

It was one hour past dinnertime. But it wasn't quite late now to have dinner.

After all, it would harm her stomach if she went to bed hungry.

It might even lead to stomach disorders if she did so.

Clara looked at Horace and then remained silent and turned away. She needed his apology first!

Horace knew what was in her mind. He also got on the bed and held his wife in arms.
