Chasing The Rejected

Chapter 83

I was fuming with anger as I walked out of the river. I handed the crying kid to Gwen before walking over to Clara who was shivering on the ground.

“What were you thinking? Why did you leave your guards? What if something bad happened to you? For f**k sake, Clara, you can’t even swim” I scolded her thinking about the fact that if I hadn’t shown up when I did, something bad might have happened to her.

“I didn’t mean to, I just couldn’t ignore the child. I’m sorry but I don’t regret my actions” She murmured stubbornly and I scoffed.

“You don’t because I saved you on time. What if Steven hadn’t called me immediately? You would have drowned alongside the baby” | yelled.

“What exactly should I have done? I should have left the baby there? I’m sorry if that’s what you would have done but that isn’t me and you know it. I lost a child, Damon and seeing that child row down the river brought back that feeling, I couldn’t let him die” She uttered and I immediately softened. This girl was going to be the death of me.

“Get up” I morning softly as I helped her up from the ground before wrapping my arms tightly around her.

“I almost got a heart attack when I heard you were gone C

Clara” I murmured and she sniffled.

“I agree that that was wrong and I’m sorry for worrying you, for worrying all of you. You can’t punish Steven and the rest, I snuck away” She murmured and I didn’t even acknowledge her last statement because if I were to counter it, we would get into another full blown argument.

I was paying them to always keep an eye on her and they didn’t do that so they were all going to get punished.

I pulled back slightly to check her properly if she had any injuries but luckily, there wasn’t any sign of an injury.
