The next morning.
In the morning, a ray of sunshine came in. Clara opened her eyes to look at Horace who was still sleeping.
His breath was even and steady, his eyebrows were thick and black, and the outline of his face was almost perfect. Clara smiled while she was watching.
But at this time, Horace's hand suddenly put on her shoulder. He was pretending to sleep.
Clara buried her head in bed shyly.
Horace also slid under the quilt and kissed Clara.
The two kissed for a while. And if they continued, it would be noon.
Clara stopped Horace's hands and said, "Don't... don't do this. We rarely have such a day when both of us are free. What about we do something else?"
Horace thought she was right that they couldn't have sex every day. It was not good for health. He thought, well, let her go today.
He said in a low voice, "It's such a sunny day outside and weekend. Why don't I take you out for a walk?"
Thinking it over, Clara realized that she had never gone out alone with Horace.
So…
Was this a date?
She was a little nervous, but more excited. She nodded immediately, "I'll get up to get ready."
While she was saying, she went to the dressing table. Looking at a table of expensive cosmetics, she suddenly had a headache because she didn't know where to start.
At least it was their first date. Should she make up well? But at her level, will it be self-defeating?
When Clara was worried, she suddenly received a phone call.
Clara frowned when she saw that the caller ID was Glenn.
But at least it was her father, she still got through.
"Clara." Glenn's voice was very anxious. "Come to the Middleton family villa right away. I have something urgent."
It was one of the few times that Glenn took the initiative to call her and let her come. What good could there be?
Did Glenn still have time to hold a family party with her? No, He must be up to something else. She knew them too well.
Clara frowned. "Another day, I have something else to do today."
"Oh, Clara, come on. The Middleton family villa is also your home."
When Clara heard this, she felt disgusted. "Dad, when has it become my home? You don't have to say more, I won't go anyway, at least not today."
"Clara! I'm sick!" Glenn's voice became more anxious and coughed violently. "Come and see me."
Glenn was sick?
Clara was stunned.
She knew that Glenn had a problem with his lungs. Maybe the closure of the Middleton family company stimulated him.
He was also old. He must be very angry under such a big hit. Clara's heart suddenly softened. She promised to see Glenn soon.
After hanging up, she looked at Horace apologetically. "I'm afraid I can't go out with you today. My father seems to be ill and I have to go to see him."
Horace thought for a moment and said, "I'll go with you."
Clara thought, can Horace accompany her to the Middleton family villa at this time? If they found out Horace had done this, would they deal with him?
Horace looked at Clara who still hesitated and said, "I must go with you. I'm worried about you."
