Jordan was quite surprised to hear James' words."Running away? Is that easy for her to leave?" Jordan felt his heartbeat speeding up. "I know she is going to you. Don't hide my wife!""You don't know your wife very well, Jordan.” Calmly James answered. But he was upset and regretted that this happened. Clarabelle chose to leave. James knew Jordan was going to get messy."What do you mean?!" Jordan snapped even more furiously."She's a good woman, Jordan. She loves you, so much. But she can't stand your behavior, you know. Think again why did she choose to leave you?" Still, calmly James answered."Shit! It's useless for me to talk to you!" Jordan hung up the call.James' words pierced Jordan's ears very clearly. What did Jordan do until Clarabelle left?"Susan. I think Lala is going to Susan's house. She must be hiding there." Jordan concluded. Unfortunately, he doesn't know where Susan lives. Jordan tried to call Susan, but he
Jordan's hand quickly took the paper Susan had placed on his desk. Immediately he read what was written there. Jordan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe he read Clarabelle's message to Susan."I don't know where she is. She definitely has closed her number on purpose. She also sent Jack a letter saying goodbye." Susan spoke furiously, looking at Jordan who was still stunned, again repeating the contents of the letter."Are you serious, Clarabelle left?" Lorenz asked."I'm the one who wants to ask, didn't Lala give any signs at all? Don’t you feel anything strange about her attitude? She didn't even text you?" Susan did not answer Lorenz. She looked even more intently at Jordan with no less annoyance. The girl wanted to scratch Jordan's face.Jordan met Susan's gaze. His heart felt chaotic knowing the fact Clarabelle left. She was not with James. Clarabelle stayed away from everyone she knew.Jordan didn't know what to say. He hadn't cared much for Clarabelle since the night he saw Ja
'I'm sorry. I can't stay longer by your side'So, Clarabelle left a message for Jordan.'Live well, please. Be a nice man as I have known you so far'Jordan held the paper with tears in his eyes.'Don't forget your milk'Jordan quickly got up and opened the refrigerator. Clarabelle always had fresh milk ready for Jordan. That was right, there was a bottle in there. Right next to the bottle was a flat box propped up in plastic wrap.Jordan took it, then sat back down. He opened the plastic. It contained an ATM and credit card that Jordan gave. Also, the car keys Jordan gave Clarabelle. There was another folded paper there. Jordan took it. Another message from Clarabelle.'Everything I borrowed, I return them to you. Thank you so much for all the sweet things I ever had with you. I'll take care of Jordan Junior, I promise. Love you, always'Jordan was crying. He cried hard reading the letter."You're stupid... stupid... Why are your eyes blind, Jordan? Why?" Jordan began to realize that
"Suzie, Honey... What's wrong?" Lorenz held Susan's hands. Something must have upset Susan, perhaps it would be more appropriate for her to be worried."I went to Clarabelle's parents' graves. My heart is broken. Clarabelle came to the grave before she left. There was a flower arrangement there that Clarabelle put. And a short letter she wrote." Susan took something out of her bag. She gave Lorenz a small card.'Mom, Dad... I miss you so much. All is so hard for me... Hope I can be with you both, and have my happiness back.'Lorenz read the short letter on the card. Then he looked back at Susan."What do you think?" Lorenz asked."Lala is desperate ... she ... is going to end her life. If it's true ... Oh God ..." Susan's hands immediately covered her face. Her tears exploded again."Honey ..." Lorenz hugged Susan and led her into his office.Lorenz waited for Susan to calm down."I'm really afraid that Lala, she's thinking abo
"Hmm ... I'm about to be transferred from my office and transferred to a new office. The company opened another office, I was appointed secretary, and ... it's in this town!" In the last sentence, Nerry said it with joy."Is that true?" Rita and Simon said together."Yes! I will move next month," continued Nerry. "So, get ready, your house will be even more full.""Wow, this is amazing! I really pray you can work in this town, we are together again." Rita stood up and hugged her sister with a big smile.Clarabelle smiled, but there was a feeling of uneasiness rising at the edge of her heart. Nerry was going home to Rita's house. It meant she seemed to disturb Rita's family togetherness. Would it be fine if Clarabelle stayed with them for a long time?After eating, Simon and Nerry returned to their respective offices. Clarabelle thought she'd better talk to Rita about her worries."Maybe it's better for me to find another place to live. I don
James' car arrived at the Hayden family's mansion. He stopped near the terrace. From inside the house, Ann-Mary appears with Crystal. The two of them got into James' car, then the car drove away from the house."Jordan isn't answering my calls. I texted five times today, none of which he read." Crystal spoke in an uneasy tone. "I was really worried, James.""I didn't think Jordan could fall back again that badly. Your brother is very fragile when injured. I hope we can find Clarabelle soon." Ann-Mary joined in."Yeah, I hope so too. Frankly, the office was a bit shaky because Jordan didn't want to work anymore." James replied, keeping his focus on the wheel."I'm so sad to think about Lala. Is she okay? She's alone, she has no family. Why did Jordan hurt Lala? Then she chose to leave. I'm glad they've been happy for a while." Crystal saw James in the rear-view mirror."I don't know, Granny. I don't know why he could judge that Lala and I have a spe
Jordan and James sat opposite each other. Ann-Mary and Crystal let them talk alone. It was time for the two brothers to finish their feud that had not ended for too long."Are you ready to start your fight?" James looked at Jordan.After showering and changing clothes, Jordan looked fresher. In front of Jordan was the hot food that Ann-Mary had made for him.“Why are you doing that? For me or Lala? You don't gain anything from helping me find Lala." Jordan stared at James' face. James looked so calm.“It's the company that will lose if I leave one Hayden out of work. Many jobs are waiting for you. If Lala comes home, you will be fine." James gave an excuse.Jordan tugged at the corners of his lips. The reason James uses is always business. All for the company. But that time Jordan knew for sure, that was not the main goal of James looking for Clarabelle."You think I believe?" Jordan asked with his eyes fixed on James."I'
It was late afternoon when Jordan and James arrived at their destination. They went straight to the address given by James' men. James was driving, he deliberately stopped the car across from the address they got."Why do you stop here? I'll go straight to meet Rita and ask where Lala is?" Jordan was restless and impatient."Joy, we don't know if Lala is really here. If you appear suddenly, it will trigger unexpected things." James tried to explain why he didn't enter Rita's yard."What do you mean?" Jordan was starting to get angry."If it turns out that Lala isn't here, you ask Rita and her husband about her, what do they think? Do they need to know what happened between you and Lala?" James spoke his mind, asking Jordan to think too."Well, okay...." Jordan understood what James meant."We make sure this is Rita's house. Then we follow her. If indeed she and Lala communicate then they might have a meeting." James pushed back his seat and
