Chapter 313 Complete Exposure

As soon as Desmond came downstairs, he was told that Ace had already left and that he should head to the Elise family on his own.

"Is he still mad?" Desmond asked.

"Not sure. He said he was going back to calm Brynn down for you," Emily replied.

Desmond nodded and slowly made his way outside.

The moment he stepped out, he saw Clara at the door. He quickly looked around to make sure no one else was there before he felt relieved.

"Clara, what are you doing here?"

Desmond lowered his voice and quickly walked over to Clara, opening the door.

As soon as Clara saw Desmond, she burst into tears and hugged him tightly. "Desmond, you finally came out."

Desmond didn't push Clara away. He gently comforted her for a moment before letting go.

Once he did, he noticed a large handprint on Clara's face, which was very noticeable. Seeing Desmond staring at the mark, Clara quickly raised her hand to cover it, looking frightened.

Desmond pulled her hand away and asked, "Clara, what happened?"

"It was... it was..." Clara bit her lip, looking like she wanted to speak but was too scared

to.

"Tell me, who dared to hit you? I'll make sure they pay," Desmond said, gently patting her back to encourage her.

Clara finally looked at Desmond and said timidly, "It was Brynn. She called me out, yelled at me, and then hit me."

The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, leaning entirely on Desmond.

Hearing that Brynn had hit Clara, Desmond was furious. "I can't believe that woman dared to hit you. Clara, don't worry, I will..."
