“Ah!” Laura quickly rolled her wheelchair back as Clara had woken up, “How… how did you wake up?”
“Sorry for that,” Clara said word by word with her angry eyes fixed on Laura.
“What’s going on here, Andre? You said she was already in coma!” Laura turned away to shout at Andre, “Why are you still standing still there? Take her!”
Her words put a smile on Andre’s face.
“Hurry! What are you waiting for?” Laura didn’t see the expression on Andre’s face and she urged him anxiously while pulling her wheelchair away from Clara as if she were a monster.
At ordinary times, Laura wouldn’t have been so scared of Clara. For her, Clara was just a stupid woman who could always be fooled by her. It’s ridiculous for her to be afraid of Clara.
But just a few seconds ago she thought Clara was in coma. But now as she suddenly woke up and turned a dark face to her, she thought what stood before her was a zombie.
But Andre didn’t do anything. Laura turned to him, only to find him staring at her with a weird smile on his face.
What did his smile mean? Laura finally realized what had happened. She instantly drove her wheelchair towards the door.
But then she felt dizzy and she felt she was losing control of her body.
What? Laura was panic-stricken and she shouted at Andre and Clara, “What did you do to me? Why…”
“Why are you feeling dizzy and weak, right?” Clara continued her words for her and stood up from the sofa.
“So, you think you’re the only person in this world who can drug other people, right? Don’t bother, I’m not as evil as you. You will only feel strengthless. You’ll be safe,” then she said coldly, “After all, I still need you to tell me something.”
Drug? Laura couldn’t believe what she heard. How was that possible? When was she drugged?
Laura searched in her memory and remembered that on the car Andre had given her a cup of water. It must be the cup of water!
She fixed her eyes on Andre astonishedly and screamed, “You drugged me through the cup of water? You trapped me for Clara! Why? I remember you said you didn’t love her anymore!”
“Otherwise, you wouldn’t have trusted me,” Andre walked over to Laura and looked down at her, “I love Clara so I won’t let you hurt her. I just said so to let you trust me.”
“So, you didn’t have sex with her and you didn’t drug her, did you? You liar! Liar! I don’t know how that bitch seduced you, all of you!”
Laura shouted at Andre. She could accept the fact that she was the one who was fooled.
“That’s impossible!” something occurred to Laura and she turned to Clara, “I’ve drugged the dish you ate. How could you be safe?”
Clara walked over to Clara step by step in a terrifying way, “So, it was you as I expected. I just want to ask you why you couldn’t let me go. How evil you are!”
“That’s because I want you to die!” Laura shouted at her crazily, “Your fault is trying to steal Horace from me. Horace is mine! I grew up together with him! I’m his first lover! He should be mine. I’ll let you pay for what you did!”
“Then I may let you down,” Clara continued, “I’m safe and it was Horace who sent me to the hospital. Do you think he will marry you after he knows what you have done to me?”
“Horace sent you to the hospital?” Laura couldn’t believe her ears, “So, he lied to me too? Liar! You all helped this bitch to fool me!”
Laura pointed at Clara and laughed loudly as if she had lost her mind.
“Shut up!” Clara shouted. She didn’t know why the woman, who had even tried to kill her, dared to call her “bitch”.
She moved closer, pressed Laura on her wheelchair and asked coldly, “Tell me, why did you say the kidnapping ten years ago was you trying to save the Hutchinson family? What do you mean? Did you and Sean Kirkland plan the kidnap of Horace together?”
Her words made Laura calm down a bit. She blamed herself in her mind that she shouldn’t have told her this so recklessly.
“I don’t understand what nonsense you’re talking about. Why would I kidnap Horace? I have nothing to do with his kidnap and I was also a victim!” Laura avoided Clara’s eyes and mumbled.
“Then tell me why you said those. Tell me!” Clara didn’t want to let her go that easily.
Five years ago, she did suspect the truth of the kidnap of Horace and she had even requested Russell to do some investigation on this. But before she could find out something, she got divorced with Horace. And she hadn’t come back to America since then so her investigation came to an end.
Seeing Laura’s reaction, Clara was more certain that she must have something to do with the kidnap ten years ago. She must make it clear right here right now!
“I… I… I didn’t say anything. I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Now Laura had no choice but to deny what she said.
Her reaction told Clara that she was right, “It’s too late, Laura. Now I need your explanation. Or I won’t let you get out of here.”
Laura didn’t take her threat seriously. They had been enemies for years and they both knew each other well. In Laura’s mind, Clara wouldn’t be ruthless enough to do anything cruel to her. Clara would definitely fail in the end because of her weakness.
With that idea in mind, Laura said loudly, “Don’t threat me, Clara. Send me back now. Otherwise, I’ll make you pay for this!”
“So, that’s your answer?” Clara said with fury written all over her face, “Let’s see how you’ll make me pay for it.”
