Chapter 2312

Author: Anastasia Marie
"I know your difficulties, so I came here to try my luck. Is Wilson in the office right now?" Clara enquired.

"He is, but he's in the middle of an important meeting."

"Can you tell me where the conference room is? I'll go there myself. Didn't Wilson say you'd help me with anything I want to do?"

Frank looked at Clara, but his voice stuck in his throat. He scratched the back of his neck. "But if Mr. Birch sees you, he might…"

"I'll take the blame," Clara said. "I forced you to tell me where he was."

Clara assured Frank, so he had no choice but to agree. "I'll take you there." He would rather accompany her and not let her get into any unexpected situation, especially since she was pregnant with Wilson's baby.

"Thank you," Clara said.

The receptionist watched as Frank led Clara into an elevator not far away, aghast at the turn of events. What just happened? Did Frank just refer to Clara as Madam? Who was she?

Could she be Mr. Birch's wife? She was pregnant with a big belly. If sh

    As the familiar figure came into view, Clara shuddered. Wilson!Wilson was tall of stature, and although slightly thinner than the last time she had met him in the hospital, he still looked good in a suit. Clara wrinkled her nose with emotion, staring at the cold look on Wilson's face. Her eyes watered.Clara never realized how much she wanted to see him again. This desire was not because of Summer, but also because of her yearning. She just wanted to see him. She wanted to know about his recovery and how he was doing."Wilson..." Clara called out in an inaudible whisper. But even so, it caught his attention.Wilson was talking to the person walking next to him, but when he heard her, he stopped dead in his tracks and turned to her.The moment their eyes met, Clara's heart throbbed. Wilson was looking at her with a terrifyingly unfamiliar gaze. It was as if she was just someone he knew and nothing more.Clara looked into Wilson's eyes and seemed to understand why Frank had said W

    Clara refused to let go. Wilson increased his strength, and it began to hurt her fingers."You should let go, or you'll be the only one who suffers," Wilson said, a hint of impatience in his tone."Wilson, I know I shouldn't bother you, but I need your help," Clara said urgently. "I have a very important friend, Summer Hope. Summer helped me a lot when I was in prison. I had a labor complication when I gave birth to Yanny, and she saved me. But over the years, I lost contact with her. Queenie says she knows where Summer is…"Clara quickly spelled out Queenie's demand. "I hope you can write a letter to the judge. Can you talk to your attorney? Queenie wants the trial to result in an acquittal."Wilson gave Clara a cold look. "You're asking me to spare a woman who almost got me killed?"Clara's breath hitched in her throat. Queenie's initial intention was to harm her, not Wilson. However, Wilson ended up hurt and had to be sent to the emergency room. If there had not been enough blo

    This was karma, Clara thought, putting a hand to her chest. What Wilson did to her was the same as what she had done to him before. What she did to him at the hospital was cruel and heartless, and he did the same to her this time. She wondered if he shared the same pain the other day, and the idea of that made her chest feel tight. -"What? Clara went to Latveria alone?!"Serenity went to visit Clara at her store in Solaria and learned from Mrs. Wells that Clara had gone alone to Latveria."Yes. She wants to meet Wilson and talk about Queenie's case," Mrs. Wells explained."But Clara is heavily pregnant! And she's all alone…""Wilson arranged for his assistant to help Clara, so Frank helped her with food and accommodation arrangements," Mrs. Wells told Serenity about what she had learned from the conversation on the phone with Clara yesterday.Serenity was relieved to hear that, but she called Clara on the way home anyway."Clara! Why didn't you tell me about your visit to L

    Clara looked at the time and waited. She knew Wilson had gotten over her and was cold and unfeeling toward her, but she still had to try. There was nothing else Clara could do. She could only beg for Wilson's help. Clara waited until the iron gates were finally open. When she saw a black sedan slowly drive out, she hurried over and shouted at Wilson through the backseat window. "Wilson, please listen to me. I know you don't want to see me, but I need your help." The man in the driver seat inquired, "Mr. Birch, do you want to stop the car?""No. Drive to the office," Wilson said coldly, catching a glimpse of Clara's face outside the window. Clara stood near the car and anxiously banged on the window. Despite that, Wilson quickly withdrew his gaze and looked away. He no longer had any feelings for her and remained indifferent.Clara watched the car drive away with a blank stare on her face. Bitter disappointment shadowed her eyes as she realized Wilson would not stop for her. R

    Frank sighed at Clara’s stubbornness. “Please wait for a moment then. I’ll let Mr. Birch know that you want to see him.” “Thank you.”Frank entered Wilson’s office while the other secretaries looked at Clara curiously. They all knew about Clara’s identity as Wilson’s wife, but they hadn’t made it official to the public yet. Clara was pregnant, and rumor had it that Wilson stayed in Solaria for her. Clara should be very important to Wilson, and he had even arranged for Frank to serve her. However, it was difficult for Clara to meet Wilson now. Various speculations arose in everyone’s heart. Meanwhile, in Wilson’s office, Frank told Wilson that Clara was waiting for him outside. “Since she wants to wait for me, let her wait,” Wilson said nonchalantly. “Alright,” Frank answered and left the office and went to Clara. “Sorry, Mr. Birch doesn’t want to see you,” he told her. “That’s fine. I’ll wait here then.” Clara found a place to sit quietly without disturbing the oth

    “No, I’m fine. The baby kicked me.” It was the first time for Clara to clearly feel the fetal movement. What she felt previously were only faint kicks. “The baby kicked you?” Wilson hadn’t expected that. Looking at Wilson’s surprised expression, Clara grabbed his hand and put it on her belly instantly. “See, the baby is moving again.” Wilson was stunned when he felt the baby kick him rhythmically. It was a new and strange feeling for him. He was in awe, and that feeling reminded him that it was his baby in Clara’s belly now. Some images flashed across his mind, and his eyes darkened. Clara snapped back to her senses when the fetal movements stopped. She realized that she had grabbed Wilson's hand and made him touch her belly. She felt embarrassed as the movements had stopped, but his hands were still pressed against her belly. She blushed, and the spot where Wilson had touched was warm. “Thanks!” Clara flusteredly stepped back and took the thermos before stuffing it

    “I’m sorry. I didn’t know what else I could do to get you to talk to me,” Clara said. “I used to love you very much, right?” Wilson asked calmly. Clara was puzzled by his question. “But, I don’t feel a thing for you now no matter how much I loved you in the past. I don’t have any sympathy or love for you now. I won’t budge even if you go to the office every day to make me agree to your request. Your actions disgust me instead of making me feel sorry for you,” Wilson said while looking at Clara. His eyes were not displaying any emotions, almost as if he truly didn’t love her anymore. “I knew that I said a lot of things that hurt you in the hospital, which made you hate me. Wilson, please continue to hate me or punish me if you want. I’ll accept everything that you want to do to me. But, it’s two different things for now. I can do whatever you want as long as you spare Queenie!” Clara begged. “You’ll do whatever I want?” Wilson raised his eyebrows. “What if I want you to stay

    “You’re clear about Jackson's amnesia when Serenity fell off the cliff, right? He didn’t really have amnesia, but part of his memories were locked. The hypnotist changed Jackson's feelings about Serenity. His love for her was downplayed, and what happened between them was just like a movie to him. He couldn’t resonate when he thought about the moments that they had shared.” Clara felt a pang in her chest as Wilson spoke. She felt uneasy, and she was afraid of what he was going to say next.“You’ve guessed it, haven't you?” Wilson asked. “I met up with the hypnotist and tried to make him downplay my feelings for you. I don’t have any feelings for you now. You’re just somebody that I used to know.” Clara’s heart broke when she heard that. “Somebody… that you used to know?” She murmured while getting teary.“Yeah. I remember everything that happened between us, but I don’t feel anything at all.” Wilson wiped the tears in the corners of Clara’s eyes and continued, “You had said tha

    “……” 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?" Morgan asked."No more fighting, I promise!" Renee quickly
