Chasing The Rejected Luna's Heart (Clara and Liam) novel Chapter 130

~DIMITRI~

I immediately ran towards the house when I heard Clara shouting at someone. As soon as I walked in, I saw her dropping my phone back on the table with an irritated and sad look on her face.

“Who were you just on the phone with?” I questioned, trying to mask the panic in my voice. Shit! I shouldn't have taken my phone with me.

“It was Damon. That bastard really has the nerve to call me his wife after what he did to me. I'm sure your mother is awake now and that's why he suddenly has a change of heart but I could care less. I hate him!” She screamed and despite her words, I could see the hurt in her eyes and longing.

She loved Damon dearly and for the fact that he was willing to protect her despite not knowing the truth proved that he loved her as well.

I didn't like getting in the way of my brother's happiness, especially because I've never seen him this way before but in order to help him, this had to be done.

“Did you tell him anything like where we were?” I questioned as I placed the phone inside my pocket.

“No, of course not, I don't want to see him” She replied and I heaved a sigh of relief before nodding.

“Okay. He won't find us here, okay? I'm the only one that knows about this place. Here, I bought you food” I said as I wiggled the plastic bag with food in front of her face but that wasn't enough to wipe the frown off her face.

“I’m not hungry” She told me and I rolled my eyes.

“You may not be hungry but my nephew or niece surely is and I won't have them getting hurt because their mother is heart broken. Sit down and eat” I ordered and she pouted her lips at me before taking a seat on the dining table.

I immediately served the phone on a plate and placed it in front of her and watched her as she ate. She claimed to not be hungry but she had wiped her plate clean in minutes.

“Can I ask you a question, Clara?” I questioned and she nodded slowly.

“As long as it doesn't have anything to do with Damon then go ahead. Are you going to eat this?” She questioned as she flashed me an innocent look which made me chuckle.

“I thought you weren't hungry?” I questioned and she pouted.

“I’m not but the baby is” She said and I smiled before dishing out the food for her.

“Eat as much as you want, I'm not hungry” I told her and she nodded before she continued eating.

“So… Do you know anything about your background, Clara?” I questioned and she shook her head.

“I never got to find out. Why?” She questioned and I shook my head.

“Nothing really. I'm just curious as to why you didn’t have a last name. Why did you never take your ex’s surname?” I questioned and she shrugged.

“They didn't take me in as their daughter so why would I take their last name?” She questioned and I nodded. That made sense?
