Chapter 146

Clara's POV

“Clara," she said, drawing me out of my thoughts.

"Yes," I answered with a sigh.

"I love you. I couldn't have asked for a better sister," she said. "I'd also love you a lot more if you could find me a European boyfriend while you are there," she added.

"Do you only love me when you need something?" I asked.

"Of course not. I will hang up now because I'm hoping you'll make me an aunt by the end of your trip." She said,

I sighed again.

"Okay, bye. You are supposed to be in class." I reminded her.

"I was too depressed today. I'll decide if I want to tomorrow." She answered.

I was starting to regret leaving her alone.

She hung up the phone after having our final goodbyes.

It made me feel a lot better knowing that she was okay. I'd be a lot better off if I were out of here.

Derek came back not too long after. He looked a bit frantic and out of breath. "Unfortunately, I have to show up at the auction tonight. I'll only be in and out of the event. I'll be back in a few minutes.
