Chapter 265 Protecting You

Upon hearing this, Claudia took a sharp intake of breath.

She had decided to break off her engagement with Horace, but she had never thought of doing it in this way.

She struggled hard to break free, but the man’s hand around her waist was like iron, gripping her tightly and preventing her from moving.

Horace’s mother slightly parted her lips.

She hadn’t expected things to turn out this way.

Horace was pale, anger simmering in his eyes.

This Magnus, repeatedly provoked him, it was clearly intentional!

“Seraphina, let’s discuss whatever it is when we get back.”

He walked up to Claudia and extended his hand towards her.

In the past few times, Claudia had always gone with him. This time? Horace had no idea.

Magnus was worthless in Claudia’s eyes, but Edmond was different, he

was the father of her child, her ex-husband.

Would she still stand by his side when she found out that Magnus was Edmond?

In Claudia’s silent gaze, Horace’s heart sank heavily.

Claudia looked at him deeply, “I’m sorry, Horace, I can’t keep hurting you.”

She had asked Horace to help her act out a scene to lure Edmond out, but she hadn’t considered the difficulties Horace might face.

If she really had gotten engaged, it would have been harmful to him.

Horace shook his head with a bitter smile, his voice h oa rse and low, “No need to apologize, I was just being too selfish.”

She had told him to make it clear to his family that this was just a collaboration.

And for his own selfish reasons, he did not tell his family the truth.

It was his excessive greed, wanting to turn pretense into reality, that led to his failure due to over-cleverness.
