As a result, when Logan came to pick Leilah up, he saw Clara and Leilah sitting there and writing their statements of mistake.
He walked over and was amused when he saw the aggrieved look on Leilah’s face.
He then poked Clara’s arm, implying that he was here.
When Clara felt someone touched her, she was disgusted and looked up coldly.
But when she found it was Logan, her gaze softened.
“Logan, why are you here?” Clara took a look at him and then saw him motioning her. She immediately lowered her voice.
They walked to the resting area, for fear of disturbing Leilah.
“What’s with Leilah?” seeing the look on Leilah’s face, Logan couldn’t help smiling.
Clara thought for a while and knew that he was asking about Leilah.
“We skipped work yesterday and was scolded by our chief editor,” Clara said in a low voice.
She wasn’t proud of it, and there were so many people in the office.
Logan nodded and then asked curiously, “Why did you skip work?”
Clara didn’t know how to answer him
Although this matter had been solved, she couldn’t be sure if she could tell Logan. After all, Leilah didn’t want to tell Logan about it in the first place.
Therefore, she was caught in a dilemma.
Seeing the look on her face, Logan knew that it must be a secret. Clara thought for a while and ran away after she left Logan few words. “Logan, I’m getting off work. Bye!”
If it was in the past, Clara might look like a naughty kid doing such a thing. But after what she had been through, she wouldn’t be the same now.
Logan shook his head and called someone.
“Horace, your employee bullied my girlfriend, do you know that?” Hearing what Horace said, Logan smiled and hung up the phone. He took a glance at Leilah and went downstairs.
Right after he went downstairs, the chief editor called Leilah into her office. Looking at the chief editor with a resigned look on her face, Leilah thought she was going to be scolded again.
Then, to her surprise, the chief editor said.
“You can go home now. Hand over your statement tomorrow.” Leilah’s eyes widened when she heard this.
What was this? Was this her dream?
“Why are you still standing there? Go!” After saying that, the chief editor lowered her head and went on with her work. Leilah walked out of her office in a trance, not knowing what had changed.
Why did the chief editor change her mind all of a sudden?
She had no idea. She packed up her things and left the company.
Of course, it was all because the call Logan just made to Horace. the chief editor was also confused that Horace would stand up for Leilah.
No matter what, Leilah knew she still had the statement to write.
But she was happy that she was given more time.
“Hey, get in!” Just as she left the office building, she saw Logan waving at her in the car. She felt today a magical day. the chief editor suddenly became generous, and now, her boyfriend showed up here.
“Logan,” she said in surprise and saw Logan walk out of the car and open the door for her.
As she got into the car, she told Logan what had happened today.
After hearing her words, Logan smiled and they had dinner together. Then, they took a walk and Logan drove her home.
Leilah had always been shy in front of Logan, but as they got along, she was getting bolder.
“I’ll see you tomorrow, cutie,” Leilah said and walked into the house. Seeing her receding figure, Logan smiled dotingly and drove home.
…
“Honey!” As soon as Clara went home, she saw Horace sitting on the sofa.
She didn’t have dinner outside and came back home as soon as she got off work.
“I’m home,” she replied in a plain tone. She was still thinking about what Horace had said yesterday.
Somehow, she found it hard to forgive the trauma caused by the person she loved the most.
Maybe it was how people was.
“Come, let’s have dinner.” Horace walked up to her and wanted to hug her, but Clara dodged.
“Okay.” Clara took a look at him and walked to the dining table.
Horace smiled with bitterness.
He had thought she was going to forgive him soon. It seemed he was wrong.
He shook her head. Even so, he would wait for her to come back around.
However, bad news kept popping up. Clara received another bad news.
Helena’s illness got more serious.
Since she kicked Helena out of the nursing home, Clara had sent someone keeping an eye on her. She wanted to see if she could find Neo where Helena went and to keep Helena safe.
But unfortunately, bad news came.
Seeing the message, she had received from the guard she sent, she didn’t know what to do. She thought she’d better check Helena out.
Thinking of this, she called the chief editor and asked for leave. Then, she called to ask the guard where Helena was.
Although Helena was in pain now, Clara didn’t give him any instruction, so the guard only stood there and watched Helena lying on the ground.
When Clara arrived, there had been a lot of passers-by gathering around Helena. Some wanted to help, but didn’t want to get in trouble.
This was a poor neighborhood and the residents here didn’t have much money.
Clara stood among the crowd and watched Helena twitching in pain on the ground.
Soon, there was sweat on Helena’s head.
Clara frowned and was lost in thought. Just as Helena was tossing and turning in pain, she saw Clara.
Seeing the indifferent look on Clara’s face, Helena felt desperate. She knew that if she didn’t receive treatment soon, she would die here.
The second their eyes met, Clara knew she couldn’t stand there and watch anymore. She asked the bodyguard to help Helena up and into the car.
