All Too Late novel Chapter 298

“I-I’m sorry,” stammered Clarissa piteously.

Lauren’s face was devoid of any emotion.

As such, Clarissa could only leave in embarrassment.

Lauren knitted her brows.

I can’t let anyone know that the female lovebug is a goner.

Fortunately, Clarissa had no idea what the female lovebug was.

Lauren mulled over it for a while before her lips slowly curved into a rigid smile.

A plan had formed in her mind.

Meanwhile, Clarissa was walking toward the gate when she bumped into Yareli, who was walking in.

Yareli was furious. “Are you blind?”

Clarissa also glared at her. “Well, my eyes are not used for looking at something this ugly!”

“What did you say?” Yareli glared daggers at Clarissa.

The latter snorted disdainfully. “You heard me. I said you were ugly!”

Yareli raised her hand to hit Clarissa but was not prepared for the latter’s reflexes.

Clarissa managed to grab Yareli’s hand in mid-air. She then slapped Yareli first.

Yareli howled, “How dare you hit me!”

“So what if I did? I hit whoever I please!” hissed Clarissa with her arms akimbo.

Yareli reached out to grab Clarissa’s hair.

All right, so be it!

Clarissa smirked at the attempt. “What a weakling.”

Having said that, she grabbed Yareli by the hair and threw her to the ground.

Satisfied, she then proceeded to make a show out of dusting her hands clean.

“I don’t know where the heck you came from. You just barged in here without even asking me who I am, and now you want to pick fights with me?” said Clarissa disdainfully.

“Mom! Mom!” Yareli yelled.

The purpose of her visit that day was to see Vanessa.

Vanessa heard loud shouting coming from downstairs and hurried over to look.

“Yareli, what happened?” Vanessa went to help her daughter.

Yareli stood up and pointed at Clarissa. “Mom, she hit me!”

Vanessa was stunned.

She looked at Clarissa faintly. “You’re… Clarissa?”

Clarissa’s expression sank. “You’re the mistress?”

“Watch your mouth!” Yareli glared at her.

“And you must be the illegitimate child,” said Clarissa contemptuously.

Yareli’s face was gloomy.

Clarissa gave them both a cold look and turned away.

“Stop right there!” Yareli seemed to be particularly agitated. “You’d better explain yourself to me!”

Vanessa stopped her. “Let her go.”

“But Mom, she hit me!” Yareli was livid.

“If you want to marry Samuel, don’t mess with her,” said Vanessa solemnly.

“What do you mean by that, Mom?” Yareli was puzzled.

“Regardless, you are not allowed to provoke her now.” Vanessa sounded thoughtful. “We still have a lot of things to do, and we have to rely on her father to help us.”

Yareli pursed her lips. “Who is her father?”

“All right, that’s enough with the questions. I’ll let you know later,” said Vanessa, her tone morose. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to see Lauren first.”

“Who’s Lauren?” Yareli frowned.

“She’s the doctor here, and she’s very powerful.” Vanessa continued, “Once she implants the female lovebug into your body, Samuel will definitely fall madly in love with you.”

“Really?” Yareli’s face revealed hope.

Vanessa then promptly brought her daughter into Lauren’s clinic.

Inside, Lauren looked at them mildly. “What is it?”

“Lauren, this is my daughter, Yareli,” Vanessa said with a half-smile. “I’ll leave the lovebug business to you.”

“A female lovebug is different from its male counterpart. The female lovebug needs to be implanted at a specific time for it to work,” said Lauren coldly. “I’m afraid it isn’t for another two days.”

Vanessa was surprised. “Two more days?”

“Why, can’t you wait?” Lauren asked icily.

“Of course, we can. We’ll wait,” said Vanessa.

“Then leave. I have preparations to make,” murmured Lauren.
