Become the Wife of A CEO

Clara didn’t expect Logan to say these words to her. Laura was his sister, but he reminded Clara to be careful of Laura. It seemed that Logan was really for Clara’s good.

Although Logan was Laura’s brother, Clara found they were super different. Thinking of what Laura said to her, Clara felt that Laura was too shrewd, and she did not like her.

But for Logan, Clara always felt a kinship to him. Therefore, Clara was very moved by Logan’s words.

Half an hour later, Laura remained unconscious, and Clara began to consider whether to go. Logan read what she was thinking from her look.

“Clara, Laura is not in danger now, and I can look after her by myself, so you can go back now.”

Clara was a little embarrassed. After all, she had offered to stay with Laura, but now she wanted to leave. However, on second thought, Clara realized Laura might be annoyed after waking up and seeing her.

“Well, then I’ll go. Take care of yourself.” Without saying anything else, Clara left the hospital.

When Clara returned home, Horace had returned from work.

“I told you to call Isaac to pick you up. Why did you come back yourself?” Horace specially told Isaac about that, but Clara came back without telling them.

“It doesn’t matter. I saw a cab the moment I got out.”

“Well,” Horace changed the topic. “How is Laura?”

Horace’s words reminded Clara of how anxious Horace was when he carried Laura to the hospital this afternoon and that she was ignored. Thinking of this, Clara felt very aggrieved.

However, seeing Horace’s calm face, Clara didn’t express her frustration.

“I’m not sure. She wasn’t awake when I got back.”

“I see.” After that, Horace did not ask any more questions.

The next day, Clara got up and went to the magazine early in the morning. Clara was a little embarrassed for taking so many days off.

“Hello, everyone. It’s been so long.” After greeting everyone with a smile, Clara got no response. Besides, they all looked at Clara meaningfully and compassionately.

“What’s wrong?” Clara was a bit puzzled, wondering whether she missed any big news when she was not here.

Everyone remained silent and went on with their work.

With a confused look, Clara returned to her seat, sat down, and looked around the others. Everyone was peeking at Clara, but they all hurriedly looked away and pretended to be busy when meeting Clara’s gaze.

Clara got more puzzled. She got up, walked to Sarah, and pulled her quietly to the pantry.

“Clara…” Sarah looked at Clara worriedly, held Clara’s hand, and said with firm eyes, “Clara, you do not have to be worried. I don’t think Horace would do that. ”

“What are you talking about?” Clara was confused by Sarah’s words, “What’s wrong with Horace? Sarah, you all look so strange. What the hell happened?”

“Clara, you might well be present at that time.” Sarah was also baffled.

“What are you talking about?”

“Laura is alive, and you were in the cemetery back then, right?”

With a wry smirk lifting a corner of her lips, Clara finally figured out what Sarah was talking about. Clara didn’t expect the big news the others were talking about was concerned with herself. Laura’s coming back was a trending topic on the Internet, so it was almost known to anyone.

“Clara, don’t believe the comments on the Internet. Those are too subjective.” Sarah continued to comfort Clara. “Although you are not so beautiful as Laura, I don’t think that Mr. Kirkland is that shallow. He won’t abandon you.”

Even Sarah thought Clara was inferior to Laura. Thinking of this, Clara laughed to herself.

Instead of cheering Clara up, what Sarah said put Clara in a worse mood. Only then did Sarah realize that she made a mistake.

“Clara, I didn’t mean it…” Sarah got anxious and tried to explain.

“It’s okay. I know what you mean. Just get back to work.” Patting Sarah’s back, Clara signaled that she was not angry.

“Well, Clara, I am definitely on your side.” Sarah clenched her fists and said with a firm look.

Amused by Sarah’s serious look, Clara pulled Sarah back to her seat.

“Long time no see, Mrs. Kirkland.” As soon as Clara sat down, she heard Diane Kirby’s malicious voice.

Clara didn’t think she had offended Diane. However, Diane always said something sarcastic to Clara.

Without paying attention to Diane, Clara pretended she didn’t hear what Diane said.

“I probably can’t call you ‘Mrs. Kirkland’ a few weeks or months later.” Clara remained silent, which fueled Diane’s arrogance. Diane sneered, “Now that Laura came back, you will be divorced soon. And you’ll be driven out of the Kirkland family, Clara.”

“What do you mean?” Clara couldn’t bear to hear this anymore. She stood up and questioned Diane.

“Clara, you are still daydreaming.” Greatly pleased by Clara’s angry look, Diane snorted, “Laura is back and she is such a beauty. Horace won’t love you anymore.”

The idea that Clara would be abandoned made Diane feel super good. Diane thought to herself, “Clara, Horace is the president of Solrace. You don’t deserve him at all. However arrogant you were, a great humiliation is around the corner. Now that Laura is back, Horace will soon divorce you!”

“How dare you!” Clara wanted to refute Diane, but she got nothing for that. Logan’s words began to echo in Clara’s mind, “A man always attaches great importance to his first love.”

Seeing that Clara had no words for this, Diane rolled her eyes and turned back to her seat.

“Even if you married into the purple, you won’t change who you really are.”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Diane’s words amused many people present. They all couldn’t help but laugh out loud, gloating over Clara. Even those who used to stand with Clara were now looking at her with sympathy. They also thought Clara would be divorced by Horace.

Tired of the others’ eyes, Clara picked up her handbag and left the magazine without asking Darren for time off.

After leaving the magazine, Clara came to the small apartment where Helena was. On the one hand, Clara had not seen Helena for a long time; on the other hand, she did need Helena’s comfort.
