Chapter 231

Just as Lucas was losing his patience, Clara opened the door.

Her eyes were red.

Clara looked at Lucas with a face full of resentment, "I didn't expect you couldn't even wait for such a short while. I just, I can't bear to leave this home. I've lived here for over ten years, I..."

Clara's tears fell like a kite with a broken string.

She looked thin and weak, and her crying was very heartbreaking.

Lucas also felt that his words earlier were a bit harsh, so he patiently explained, "I'm sorry, Clara, I didn't control my emotions well. I..."

"It's okay." Clara wiped her tears and pretended to be strong, "Everything is for Nathan.

I just feel a bit sad. But knowing that you still love me makes me feel better."

Lucas nodded and promised, "Don't worry, this is just a temporary measure. Once Nathan recovers, you will still be part of the Manners family."

"Okay." Clara showed a bright smile and then took Lucas's arm, "Let's go quickly. Otherwise, we'll be late and miss it."

Before long, they arrived at their destination.

After Lucas, Clara, and Elodie got out of the car, they went straight inside.

Oliver and Ella were already waiting there.

Seeing Elodie, Oliver frowned, "What are you doing here?"
