Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 560

"Aren't you here for Esther?" Clara knew that Isaac was probably here to see Esther.

"She's still busy with her work." Esther was the daughter of the hospital dean. She chose to work here out of sheer interest in medical studies.

Although she grew up in a fairly affluent family, she was not spoiled. She worked really hard to get the position she had right now. She would never slack at working hours.

"Follow me then." Clara glanced at Isaac and led the way.

The two chatted on the way to the ward. Isaac even told Clara about Esther temperament. Clara just played the role of a listener the whole time. She felt that Esther was actually a good match for Isaac.

They soon arrived at the door to Horace's ward. Clara eyed Isaac, pushed the door open, and walked in.

Horace was still lying on the bed, his eyes closed. Clara's heart ached. She turned to look at Isaac.

"Mr. Kirkland..." Isaac was shocked when he recognized that the man lying on the hospital bed was Horace.

He couldn't believe what he was seeing. Horace had never been so enfeebled like this.

"He got injured when he was saving me from those kidnappers,"

Clara explained, and then went on to fill Isaac in about what happened these days when he was not around.

Clara knew Isaac was still loyal to Horace even though he didn't work for them anymore.

Therefore, she told Isaac everything.

There was nothing to hide anyway.

"Those people were seeking revenge?" After hearing out the story, Isaac regretted not being there with them.

However, it was too late now.

Clara nodded, letting him know that he was right. Laura was to blame for all these.

"Mrs. Kirkland, I've been doing some investigation on Laura Hutchinson these days. I'm sure I will find something."

Isaac still felt that there was something off about what happened years ago. Therefore, he decided to dig into it a bit more.

He wouldn't let it go easily until he had straightened things out. By doing this, he was also helping Clara.

"Okay." Clara nodded. Horace probably wouldn't wake up any time soon. Isaac felt a little weird about staying in the same room with Clara alone, so he excused himself and left the ward.

Clara read Isaac's mind. She nodded with a smile on her face as she watched him step out of the ward.

After Isaac closed the door behind him, Clara picked up the towel on the table and wiped off the stains on Horace's face and hands.

Clara knew that Horace got this fixation with cleanliness. He would be disgusted if he woke up to see himself so unkempt like this.

Clara carefully cleaned Horace's body bit by bit. When she was done, it was already dark outside.

She went downstairs to buy some food. For fear that Horace wouldn't be able to find her if he woke up during this time, she left a note on the bedside table.

To Clara's disappointment, Horace didn't wake up when she got back.

Isaac and Esther also came to check on him several times. But Horace was still lying there, motionless.

Clara just waited by the bed.

She even suspected that the doctor lied to her and that Horace would never wake up from this coma. But there was still a glimmer of hope that kept her going.

Three months later.

"Fix this document."
