Chapter 246

Clara saw the guilty look on Desmond's face and knew there was definitely something he was hiding.

But she still remained understanding and pretended to be strong, "It's okay, Desmond. I'm just happy you came. Don't worry, I'm fine. I can handle it myself..."

As she spoke, Clara suddenly lowered her head, and tears began to fall uncontrollably.

Not wanting Desmond to see, she deliberately turned slightly, "Sorry, Desmond, I need to go to the bathroom."

As she was about to get out of bed, Desmond grabbed her, "Clara, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I've been really busy lately. The company took on a big project, and you know, for our future, I need to perform well."

Clara leaned into Desmond's arms, "I know."

Desmond felt helpless.

It wasn't that he didn't want to come or that he didn't receive Clara's messages and calls.

It was just that there were rumors saying Clara had hired someone to kill her father. When Emily found out, she strictly forbade him from visiting. He originally didn't listen and wanted to come and find out the truth no matter what.

But he didn't expect Gabriel to get involved as well.

He thought he would wait until things calmed down before visiting her, but it only got

worse.

Until the day Lucas visited personally, Gabriel, although not pleased, eventually agreed. Clara and Desmond held each other for a while before slowly letting go.
