Clara could feel the gazes of people around her as if they were piercing through her—clearly judging the mess she had made. She caused a mess in the middle of an important party. She deserves to be cursed because of the foolish act she committed.

Oh God, she wanted to disappear from there right now.

"That's okay," Lucas looked at everything that happened and raised his hand towards the waiter standing not far from them, "continue with the party and stop staring at us." He said calmly.

Clara was still shocked by what had happened, but she noticed some people diverting their gaze from her after hearing Lucas's command—even though she saw that some of them still looked at her sneakily.

A waiter came and cleaned up the mess she had made—the spilled juice and scattered pieces of glass on the floor.

Clara took a step back. She closed her eyes and wished she could go away from there.

And... her wish was granted.

She briefly thought that some kind of miracle had happened, and someone had pull

He was even aware that there were thousands of crazy questions swirling in his head—he asked for answers in the same way.And for the sake of what happened in his life, he almost lost control when he saw Clara looking up with her bright blue eyes, filled with confusion, panic, and... a hint of worry as if she was afraid of making a mistake.Damn it, Clara never made any mistakes when it came to sex, and Lucas swore there was no woman as good as her at it.

    "I can't believe this will be the end of the annoying days in my life," Louis placed a stack of books he borrowed from the library while working on his final college project.The last semester of their college journey had just ended, and now they were free from all the assignments, waiting for the official graduation announcement.Clara looked up and smiled with relief when she saw Louis beside her. "You did it, and I'm so proud of you, Lou. After this, we just have to wait for the graduation results, and we'll be out of... out of the place you referred to as your annoying days."Louis chuckled softly, "It wasn't entirely annoying because you were with me."Clara rolled her eyes, "Well, I feel the same way."Louis turned to her and looked serious, "Do you know what we should do?"Clara squinted her eyes, "Don't tell me you want to take me to party with all of your friends?"She had overheard Louis's plan to celebrate their last college day with a night out at their favorite nightclub.

    "We will do the attack once all the necessary information has been gathered," Lucas raised his head as he heard Rafael Wagner's response to his question about when they would execute the main attack—something that would turn the tide and expose all the betrayals. Three months had passed since he arrived in Canada, working as Liam's confidant while secretly conspiring against and betraying him. He gathered all the information he needed to devise a big plan with Rafael Wagner. This would be a significant moment for ElWagner—a history. And he couldn't believe he was a part of all these dangerous schemes. Nevertheless, he wasn't afraid, nor did he have any doubts about the decisions he made under Jamie's coercion. "We've got much of the information you need," Lucas calmly replied in the chilly Canadian air that made his bones shiver because of the cold. A bonfire in the middle of their secret headquarters can’t help the cold; they remain shivering and freezing every night. "You must l

    "Are you lost your mind?" Clara couldn't remember how many times she had asked Lucas the same question since she sat beside him in the passenger seat while he calmly drove his car as if nothing had happened—like they were two people who accidentally met and ended up together in the car.Fortunately, Clara had sent a message to Louis, asking him not to come to the café to pick her up.All of this was beyond her expectations, and she couldn't refuse Lucas's command because the man was so persistent, even attracting some people's attention with his loud calling.Well, with his attractive appearance, luxurious car, and flashy expensive clothes, Lucas drew everyone's attention there—and most of them were female students.Clara understood the basic nature of women, and she was afraid that they would start gossiping about her if someone recognized her and saw her with Lucas. Most importantly, she was afraid that Louis would come and see them together. The last time she could avoid it was at

    "You're leaving?" Lucas mumbled as his eyes remained closed.Clara picked up her scattered clothes from the floor and quickly put them on. "Yes, I am leaving.""I'm not done yet, Cla." Lucas rolled over and gazed at her from the edge of the bed.Clara turned uncomfortably. "Can you stop staring at me?" she said irritably."What if I can’t?"Her hands halted as she was fastening her bra. For some reason, she couldn't do it quickly, even though she hoped to leave Lucas as soon as possible."Don't you dare!" Clara turned her head to look at Lucas, who was standing behind her—touching her back and pulling her hand gently.He bent down and kissed her shoulder—making Clara close her eyes with a racing breath.Damn, this is bad... very bad.She shouldn't enjoy what Lucas was doing to her body. She didn't like any of this. She hated it when her body responded differently to each touch of Lucas', as if she was craving him—she wanted something more that never crossed her head."Calm down, Cla,"

    "Do you want breakfast? I can cook breakfast for you if you want to." Elena touched Clara's arm after finishing preparing breakfast for Anthony. Of course, Anthony was still asleep at 7 in the morning. Clara had just come out of her room and sat near the kitchen while Elena had prepared two cups of hot chocolate and chocolate sandwiches for Anthony."I think I'm still full," Clara turned and thanked Elena for making her hot chocolate."Lately, you seem to have some free time, but you came home late last night. Are you dealing with your graduation?" Elena inquired.Clara almost spat out her hot chocolate. She tightly gripped her cup and swallowed the chocolate on her lips, even though it felt painful in her throat."I... I have a job I need to do. Lately, I asked permission to finish my college and final project before returning to work.""I see," Elena nodded, "Is everything done then? That means you've graduated?"Clara nodded, "I will have my graduation next month, and I want you to

    "I hate you, Luke," Clara said without expression, not even looking at Lucas who was driving the car beside her. "But, I like you." I like you... Not "I love you" like what romantic partners say during an argument. And hell, why was she even thinking about romantic partners when she and Lucas didn't have that kind of relationship?! Clara must have gone crazy because of the short sentence Lucas said to mock her. "I remember telling you that I didn't want you to meet me in public places, but you always ignored it," Clara continued speaking. She turned her head and stared at Lucas seriously. "I think we need to reconsider that agreement and add a condition that if anyone violates the agreement, the other party can cancel it without anyone's consent." "I don't agree with that," Lucas replied. "I didn't ask for your approval. I have already said that it's a cancellation that doesn't require anyone's consent." Clara turned, "However, I can't count how many times you've violated it by co

However, she tried to ignore it all. She tried to forget about the influence, to pretend it wasn't there.But deep down, Clara knew the truth.

    Lucas sighed long and leaned back, closing his eyes, seeming reluctant to look at Clara. He even released her hand, allowing her to gaze at the starry night outside the helicopter window.Minutes passed, and Lucas remained seated in silence—not saying anything.Clara reached for his hand, placed her fingers in his lap, and turned her head to look intently at Lucas. "Can you teach me how to read your mind?"Lucas opened his eyes, "why do you want to read my mind?"Clara shrugged, "So I know what you're thinking without asking you. Just like you've always done with me.""My thoughts are too dark for you to understand, Cla." Lucas shook his head. "You shouldn't have entered all of this—entered my world and all the dark things that you shouldn't have to stay on.""Then where should I stay?""Definitely not in the dark world I have." Lucas quickly retorted, "I tried to make you stay in a better place and protect you from all dangers, not bring you to this meeting, Cla."Clara let out a lon

    Lucas departed for Canada exactly on the day the secret meeting of ElWagner was scheduled. He didn't say anything to her, but Clara knew everything, and perhaps Lucas knew that she already knew.The journey from New York to Canada—to the headquarters of ElWagner—didn't take long, only about a 4-hour trip. Lucas left during the day, and he would arrive there in the evening while the meeting was set to take place in the middle of the night.Clara... still couldn't believe what she was doing. She had come to Canada—secretly following Lucas with the help of Beatrice and Cheryl, who had been waiting for her at a hotel near the headquarters. She kept her arrival a secret from Lucas, but of course, she couldn't hide it from Elena and Laura. She had told them her purpose for coming to Canada and when she would return to the United States tomorrow morning. They agreed to support her after learning about her complex problems.

    "I didn't mean to disturb your daydreaming. But you've been here for a while, and Lucas is starting to get annoyed because you're not coming back,"Clara turned her head and found Louis walking towards her with two glasses of wine. "I'm not drinking," she said."These are for me," he took a sip from both glasses and continued, "I know you don't drink."Clara rolled her eyes as she realized it was just Louis's way of teasing her."I'm very happy about your engagement, Cla," Louis suddenly said.Clara smiled, looking at her hand—admiring the ring Lucas had chosen for her.Lucas always asked about clothes, watches, and even ties to wear because he wasn't skilled in choosing fashion-related things. However, the ring he chose truly amazed Clara—it was beautiful and perfectly fit her finger."He actually asked for my opinion on the ring," Louis glanced at his hand and smiled."Really?" Clara blinked, "So he intentionally proposed to me at his birthday party, and you knew?"Louis chuckled, "

Rafael's wife."My name is Cheryl, by the way," she said, smiling."I... know," Clara replied with the same smile when she could hear Cheryl’s voice that seemed filled with passion th

    "You look stunning in that dress," Lucas commented as he walked into the closet.His habit remained the same—waiting for Clara to get ready and giving her that look as if he was undressing her with his eyes.Oh, God. Any woman who was with him would surely suffer from his mesmerizing gaze. Being with a handsome man with such captivating eyes was a blessing that never came twice in her life."I think my arms look really chubby," she said, lifting her arms to the mirror, then shaking her head as she noticed her belly also seemed plump.One month after giving birth to Chloe, Clara realized that there were many changes in her body. There were stretch marks on her belly that had not completely faded, her arms looked bigger, and her belly hadn't fully gone back to its original size. She felt fine wearing long pants and shirts that could cover her arms and belly, but sleeveless dresses like the one she was wearing now made her... lack confidence."Nothing's wrong with your arms," Lucas walke

And Lucas agreed with her decision to refuse to enter the clan, even though she was an official member of the ElWagner clan due to her status as the daughter of the Wagner family.She hadn't changed her name on her identification card, and she also recently found out that her name couldn't be found on the 'GOD's Mind' server. Not just her name but all her identifyi

    Almost an hour had passed since Clara sat in Louis' car with Rafael's provided documents on her lap. However, she hadn't found the courage to open them—to read a document titled 'Clara Clark' on the front page as if she's a fugitive with a long criminal record.Louis sat beside her, remaining patient without saying anything—even though Clara was sure many questions were swirling in his mind.Clara took a deep breath—attempting to gather bravery from within herself... still, she continued to gaze at the document without taking any action."Should I... open it?" She whispered softly after a prolonged silence.Louis looked at her and nodded, "You should, Cla." He held her hand tightly, "You have the right to know, even though your parents have tried to keep all of this hidden.""Why would they hide this?" Clara retorted quickly.Louis shook his head, "I don't know, Cla. If you want to know... you have to open the document and read it."Clara stared at the document in her hands and sighed

    Leaving Chloe alone at the mansion always made Clara feel uneasy. She was afraid Chloe might cry, refuse to drink her milk, or not sleep like she did last night. However, taking Chloe to the hospital wasn't a suitable option either, considering she couldn't ensure what would happen there."Are you going to the hospital?" Elena asked when she saw Clara sitting in the kitchen at 5 in the morning."Yes, I'm going there, El," Clara nodded, "I'm waiting for Louis because he's showering, and he won't let me go alone."Elena nodded her head and started taking out food ingredients from the fridge.When Clara returned home last night, Laura and George asked what had happened, and Louis told them everything. They had initially planned to come to the hospital, but Louis forbade them and said that Lucas was sleeping due to the influence of the medication. The plan for this morning was for all of them to go together while Chloe would stay home with Elena and Anthony. However, Laura changed her min
