Chapter 1328

Author: Anastasia Marie
The moment Clara finished her sentence, her mother wrapped her arms around her and started bawling her eyes out.

Clara patted her mother’s back gently in an attempt to comfort her. “Oh, don’t cry, Mom…”

In fact, rather than Yanny, she was more worried about her mother. After all, she had spent so much effort in raising Clara, but even when she was one foot in the grave, she was still struggling to provide for her mother!

————

Clara went to a nearby market to buy ingredients for her food stall. On her way back, she ran into Peter.

Peter seemed to be overjoyed when he met Clara. “What a coincidence! I wanted to visit, but I was worried that no one was at home.”

“What are you doing here?” asked Clara.

“I happened to be running some errands nearby, so I came by to give you some toys. These are all from my childhood. They’re still good, by the way. When I told Yanny about them, he seemed pretty interested, so I just thought he’d be happy to have them. If they get worn out, don’t

    “Thank you,” said Clara. When Peter turned to leave, Clara’s eyes remained fixated on his back, as if longing for something. She waited until he got into his car and drove out of the neighborhood before turning around and walking toward her food cart.She had only walked a few steps when she suddenly heard urgent footsteps coming in her direction. The very next moment, she felt someone grab her wrist and turn her around.“Who’s that man? Is he your new man or something?” asked Wilson with a sarcastic tone. His stern face entered her sight immediately after that. She glanced at his suit and then down at his leather shoes. “What are you doing here?” she asked him with a surprised look. “What? Am I not allowed to be here?” Wilson’s voice was cold, and unsurprisingly, there was a hint of displeasure on his face. The sight of Clara exchanging smiles with that average-looking man made him incredibly upset. She had never smiled like that in front of him, but she could smile at anoth

    Clara remained silent when she heard his accusation. No matter how harsh his words sounded, they really couldn’t hurt her. The rest of her time was reserved for Yanny and her mother.“Fine. I’ll give you the agreement now,” she replied. Then, she glanced down at her arm. “Can you let go of me, Mr. Birch?” Wilson loosened his grip, but his expression remained unchanged. Clara proceeded to lead him up the stairs. As he gazed at her back, for some inexplicable reason, the emptiness in his hand felt a bit… scary. She was merely carrying out his request, but why did he feel so uncomfortable? The two soon arrived at the place she had rented. There was no one home at the moment, as Clara’s mother had already gone out. She went into her room and retrieved a stack of papers and a pen. “What do you want me to write?” she asked Wilson.He stared at her and said, “Write that you’ll give up custody of Yanny and hand him to me in three months. From then on, you shall never appear before hi

    “Is that man even any good?” All of a sudden, Wilson grabbed Clara’s wrist and pinned her against the wall. “Weren’t you the one who kept saying that Yanny was your life and that you didn’t want another child? So why are you willing to bear a second child for another man?” Clara fought to break free from his grip, but his fingers reminded her of the steel bars in prison. The more she struggled, the more pain she felt. “Didn’t you threaten to stab yourself in the gut with a broken glass? Tell me, where did that determination go? Why don’t you do that now? Before you go and bear his child?” asked Wilson. Clara stopped struggling and looked up at the man before her. It didn’t matter how much she used to love him. It turned out that when one’s love ran out, there really wouldn’t be any feelings left. “If he’s someone I like, what’s the problem with me having a child with him? As for you, Wilson, I swear that I will never have another child with you for the rest of my life,” repli

    A sudden surge of panic assailed him.Sandra rushed to Solaria to see Wilson. As soon as she saw him, she immediately asked, "Wilson, why did you call off the lawsuit so suddenly? Don't you want Yanny's custody?"She had been feeling uneasy since Wilson started staying in Solaria for long periods of time. She kept having the feeling that something bad would happen.Although Clara Wells was now nothing but trash, she still shared a son with Wilson, and that was a bond that Sandra could never sever!Until the day Sandra became Mrs. Birch, she could not relax!"I made an agreement with Clara. She'll hand Yanny over to me three months later and will then disappear from Yanny's life forever," Wilson said indifferently.Sandra was surprised. She said, "Could this be... a trick of some kind? Why would she do that?"A trick...? The image of Clara and the honest-looking man looking at each other instantly came to Wilson's mind, causing his chest to tighten. "Enough. It's impossible for

    To Clara's surprise, she once again saw Sandra Cooper standing before her after many years.Dressed in expensive and fashionable clothes, Sandra looked graceful and elegant, like a noblewoman. A victorious smile rested on her face that was wearing exquisite makeup."We meet again, Clara Wells. By the way, I thought you would fight tooth and nail for Yanny's custody, but you actually gave up without a fight. Let me guess – you're doing it so that you can ask for more compensation, right?" Clara stood in front of the food stall and stared at Clara with mocking eyes, as if she was looking at a loser.Clara slowly raised her head, "Did you come here just to say that?""Of course not. I also want to tell you that Wilson and I will get married soon. When you hand over your son to Wilson in three months, I'll make sure to treat your son 'very well'." Sandra deliberately emphasized the words "very well". Anyone could hear the threat hidden in her words.Clara narrowed her eyes and glared

    Sandra was so angry that she was trembling with rage, "You'll pay for that, Clara Wells!"She took out her phone and made a call. Not long after that, a few punks arrived at Clara's stall. They harassed the customers, flipped the tables, and made a ruckus. Sandra looked on with a smile.The punks left Sandra's table alone. They were clearly summoned there by Sandra.One of the punks even beat Clara up. Even though Clara fought back, she was no match for him.It didn't take long for Clara to be knocked to the ground.The punk kicked Clara while cursing, "Know your place, b*tch! There are some people you shouldn't offend! This will teach you a lesson!"Clara clenched her teeth and endured it. She had no intention to beg for mercy, trying to preserve the last bit of dignity she had left.Suddenly, the beating stopped. She heard the punks screaming and Sandra Cooper gasping.‘What's going on?’Clara was shocked. She then heard a familiar voice ask, "Clara, are you okay?"Clara lo

    Jackson was the first to come back to his senses. He said with sudden realization, "You must be here to pick up your fiancée, Mr. Birch""What about you, Mr. Valor? Are you also here to pick someone up?" Wilson asked."Yes, my wife and her friend," Jackson said with a smile.Jackson's answer made Wilson's heart sink. Clara immediately came to his mind.Sandra didn't tell him much on the phone earlier. She only said that she ran into trouble and was now at the police station. She sounded tearful, so he didn't ask for any details and immediately rushed over.Could Clara be at the police station too?Wilson was about to go inside when Jackson suddenly said, "I heard Clara decided to give up custody. Aren't you curious why?"Why...? Wilson recalled Clara telling him that she wanted to start a new life – she wanted to get married and have children with another man. That memory upset him. "I didn't expect you to be such a busybody, Mr. Valor."Jackson's mouth tugged in a faint smile

I want to know the truth too!"Serenity stopped paying Sandra any heed. She turned to Clara and asked, "Clara, can you stand?""No problem," Clara forced a smile, then stood up unsteadily.Serenity wanted to help Clara, but Jackson said, "Let me do it."

    “……” Morgan suddenly found himself unable to retort. She... wasn't wrong. “But when you play house, you can pretend to be parents with one person today and another person tomorrow. Real marriage is different; you can’t choose someone else.”Renee widened her eyes, listening intently.“The only person you can choose is me. Do you understand, Renee?” he continued.She nodded vigorously. “I understand!”“Do you really?” Morgan asked, a little skeptical. He was already fifteen, so he could grasp the concept of marriage, but she was only eight. Could she truly comprehend it?“So, in the future, I can only marry Morgan and be your bride, right? I can't be someone else's bride, right?” she asked. “I don’t want to marry other boys anyway. I like you the most, Morgan. Of course I’ll only be your bride!” she happily declared, her worries fading away.So she could be Morgan's bride when she grew up! That's great!After finishing another piece of snack, Renee thought of something. She put o

    Despite her unease, she couldn’t resist when she saw the sweet desserts. She indulged herself.However, as she ate, her eyes remained fixed on Morgan, clearly still waiting for him to clarify Lucy’s claims.“You want to know if you’re a child bride, right?” Morgan began.Renee nodded.“Do you know what a child bride is?” he asked.She blinked. She had a vague idea, but not enough for her to articulate it.“To put it simply, a child bride is a girl raised by a boy's family. The girl will marry the boy when she comes of age. In the old days, some families were too poor to raise their daughters, so they would sell their daughters to become child brides for richer families,” Morgan explained.Renee blinked. “But my parents aren’t poor, and I'm raised by them, not by other people. That means I’m not a child bride, right?”“Correct, you are not,” Morgan affirmed.She breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile spread across her face. “I knew it! My parents would never sell me!

    "Morgan!" Renee turned to Morgan, unease etched on her face."The Moon family, eh? I'll remember this," Morgan replied calmly, then lowered his head to meet Renee's anxious and confused face. "Let's go, Renee. I’ll tell you what you want to know later."He led her away holding her hand.Benson looked worried. "Miss Lucy, how could you say that?""It's the truth!" Lucy shook off her fear and spoke defiantly. "Daddy and Mommy said she’s a child bride. A child bride is a girl sold by her own parents!""But the White family is not like that. Those things only happened to daughters of poor families in the old days," Benson explained. "You really shouldn’t have said that, Miss Lucy. You shouldn’t do that again.""Why do I have to listen to you?" Lucy retorted, displeased.Benson was too ashamed to tell Lucy in front of others that the Moon family simply couldn’t afford to offend Morgan. Dealing with the White family was already a headache, and Morgan's background was even more formi

    Benson and Lucy were also dumbfounded. Benson started getting anxious. He felt like things were starting to unfold in ways that he did not expect."Mr. Grimes, I..." Benson stepped forward, intending to speak to Mr. Grimes.However, Mr. Grimes moved past Benson without so much as a glance at him. He went up to Morgan and said, "Master Morgan, I apologize for the oversight!"Everyone was stunned to hear that, including the security guards who had been called over. They were secretly relieved they hadn't forcibly removed anyone yet. If they had offended someone Mr. Grimes was showing so much respect to, it would have been really bad for them!Morgan regarded Mr. Grimes with an unreadable expression. He calmly recounted the situation to Mr. Grimes.After hearing about what happened, Mr. Grimes responded, "This set of stamps was not pre-ordered. If you like it, please take it. Feel free to take anything else in the exhibition that catches your eye."This declaration shocked every

    "Who are you?!" Benson exclaimed, astonished. The mysterious figure remained silent, simply looking at Morgan.Morgan calmly reiterated to Benson, "I said, wait for Mr. Grimes." He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "I'm Morgan Wood. Please have Mr. Grimes from Lazy Cat Culture come to the Sleepy Cat Exhibition in Solaria. He should be in the area, right?"After ending the call, the person on the other end stared at the phone in disbelief.The Sleepy Cat Exhibition? What's going on?Benson, Lucy, and the staff stared at Morgan in shock, but the look in their eyes quickly turned to ridicule."Ah, a young man's naive bravado – how impudent!" Benson scoffed."Sir, please don't cause trouble," the staff member warned. "Or I'll have to call security."Morgan simply lowered his head to say to Renee, "Looks like we'll be here for a while. If you're bored, I can ask someone to walk around with you."Renee shook her head. "Morgan, what if this stamp set has really been p

    Benson's words were not only meant to exert pressure on the staff, but also to inform him that they were on the same side.As expected, when the staff heard what he said, there was an instant change in his expression. He turned to Morgan and Renee and said, "I'm sorry, but it turns out this stamp set has already been pre-ordered by this customer."Morgan saw through the so-called pre-order as nothing more than an act. "When I asked you to wrap it up earlier, I didn’t hear you mention it was pre-ordered.""We forgot to mention that. Our apologies," the staff replied.Lucy, wearing a smug expression, raised her chin at Renee, causing Renee to puff out her cheeks in frustration.Benson calmly observed Morgan and Renee. The White family's White Maple Group had numerous overlapping businesses with the Moon Group. They were often competing with each other. Originally, the White Maple Group’s business activities weren't concentrated in Solaria, so even though there was competition wi

    But before Morgan had even finished speaking, a girl's voice piped up, "I want this stamp set!"He turned to the voice and, upon seeing who it was, narrowed his eyes slightly. It was Lucy Moon, the girl Renee mentioned earlier. At the sight of Lucy, Renee immediately reacted like an angry little kitten. "Lucy Moon, why do you always try to take my stuff away?""Your stuff? How is this your stuff? You haven't paid yet!" Lucy shot back, her eyes fixed on Morgan.Morgan was well-known in their class, admired by many girls who claimed he was even more handsome than movie stars. If only Lucy had a big brother like that! She would be the envy of all the girls in class... no, all the girls in school!Unfortunately, her own big brother was not as good-looking.Last time, Lucy had tried to give Renee Sleepy Cat toys, asking for Morgan's email address in return. However, Renee accepted gifts from everyone but her, which infuriated Lucy."But if you want, I can give this stamp set to Re

    Unlike many wealthy kids, Renee was quite restrained with her spending. She had never spent recklessly and often saved leftover money. Of course, when she wanted something beyond her budget, she would act cute and ask her Daddy or Morgan to buy it for her.Lisa was the least susceptible to her charms, so Renee didn’t dare to bother her!When they arrived at the exhibition, Renee’s eyes sparkled with excitement. There were so many adorable Sleepy Cat merchandise! They're all so cute! She wanted a lot of them, but realizing her limited budget, she knew she needed a sponsor! The best one was right beside her: Morgan!"Morgan," she said, flashing him a super bright smile.Seeing her like this, Morgan immediately knew she wanted to ask him for something. "What is it? Do you want me to buy you Sleepy Cat merchandise?""You’re so smart, Morgan! No wonder so many girls in our class like you and asked me for your phone number!" Renee praised him.As soon as she mentioned it, Morgan'

    "Okay," Renee replied obediently, snuggling up to Morgan and acting cute. "Take me to the exhibition, Morgan! I know you’re the best. You’ll definitely take me, right?"Morgan pursed his lips. At 15, he was no longer a little boy. Although Renee was only 8, she was his destined wife.He had been protecting her since the day she was born. At first, he thought that he would only marry her because according to the family prophecy, she was the one most suitable for him. Over the years, however, he realized that his feelings for her ran deeper than he had initially thought.He found himself wanting to help her fulfill her wishes, and would clean up the mess when she caused trouble. Things had become different from what he had expected, but he welcomed them. He felt grateful that she was the one who was destined for him!With her by his side for the rest of his life, he would never feel lonely."Will you get into fights again?"
