Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run

Chapter 304

Megan noticed her friend's anxiety and quickly asked, "What's up?"

"My boyfriend's hurt, and he's not picking up his phone. I'm a bit worried."

"But didn't you guys break up? Why are you still concerned about him?"

Clara glanced at the picture on her phone, her lips pressed into a tight line. "I don't know, maybe I still care about him. I just don't know how to deal with him. He's sensitive and a bit unpredictable."

He never seemed to believe she liked him, almost obsessively so.

Clara put her phone down, took a sip of her juice, and heard Megan ask, "Clara, do you like Mr. Dylan?"

Clara was surprised, unsure why Megan would bring him up. She frowned. "No, I don't have feelings for him. Plus, the Ferguson family is a mess. I don't want to get involved, and I've already left Ferguson Corporation."

Megan was taken aback. "When did you quit?"

"A few days ago."

As she said this, Clara noticed Megan's mood lift.

"Clara, why not get back with your boyfriend? If you still care, maybe talk things out."

Clara rubbed her temples. It wasn't that she didn't want to talk; it was just that Z's intense nature left her unsure.
