Chapter 150

Ella adjusted the bun at the back of her head and let out a heavy sigh, "Clara, seeing you happy and settled now, I can leave with peace of mind as your mother."

Clara clenched her fists, staying silent with great effort.

Desmond's handsome face was icy as he pointed to the door nearby, "Leave through there."

The guests outside hadn't left yet, and the family's reputation had already taken a hit. Gabriel and Carlton hadn't even gone to explain things, so Ella couldn't show her face again.

If rumors started spreading, it would be even harder to bounce back.

Ella looked where he pointed and saw a small, low door. She licked her dry lips and said with a hint of bitterness, "Fine, I'll go through there, as you wish."

Clara watched Ella's back until she disappeared through the back door. Only then did she slowly unclench her fists.

Desmond was also worn out from dealing with this situation. After a moment, he turned to comfort Clara.

Clara nestled gently in his arms, then looked up with trembling eyelashes and said guiltily, "Desmond, I'm fine. I'm just sorry for you and the Boleyn family. Because of my background, I almost ruined our engagement ceremony."

Today was supposed to be her big day, her moment in the spotlight!

But instead, she was humiliated because of her lowly, vulgar biological mother.

All the attention was stolen by Katniss.

"Clara," Desmond gently rubbed the top of her head, his heart softening, "You are the kindest girl in the world. This is not your fault."

"Desmond, you really don't blame me?"

"Of course not. No one could have predicted what happened today, and you didn't know she would suddenly show up."

At this, Clara's body trembled, and she lowered her head in panic.

As if hiding a secret.
