Chapter 32 Humiltating Photos On Monday, Clara got up and was about to eat breakfast downstairs, only to receive a call from the hospital.
‘What?’ Clara stopped on the stairs, “Ten thousand? In three days? No, don't need to worry.
Of course I have it.
Just use the medicine, and I'll pay th bill soon.” Clara hung up the phone with a sigh.
Since Clara's mother got better, all the medicines she used were changed into the much better ones, which were not covered by most insurances.
Clara felt increasingly stressed.
However, Clara couldn't leave her mother to her own devices, so she gritted her teeth and call the HR department.
“Sorry, Ihave to get my salary in advance again” Clara was a little embarrassed when she said this.
“But my mother needs money.
Weil, t see.
I'll be waiting for you.
Thank you"
Hanging up the phone, Clara sighed and walked into the dining room.
tn the dining room, Horace was eating porridge when he saw Clara.
He asked, “What's wrong?” Clara guessed that Horace might have seen her talking on the phone at the foot of the stairs.
Her mind went blank at once.
After a few seconds, she said, ‘Well, it's from the company.
There's nothing important: Clara didn't want to hide it from Horace, but she had no idea how to tell him about it.
Clara’s mother was seriously ill in bed and Needed money to pay for the medical bills.
if Clara told this to Horace, she felt as If she was asking him for money.
Although they were a couple and Clara began to depend on Horace, she still refused to do so.
Maybe it was a habit Clara developed when she was a child.
Clara's mother always asked Clara to stay strong, even if everyone laughed at her for not having a father or for being an illegitimate daughter.
Seeing Clara's guilty smile, Horace pondered for a Moment but did not say anything.
Horace knew what happened to Clara as well.
However, Horace didn't intend to offer to help Clara.
He knew she was sensitive and stubborn, so he didn't want the trust between to be affected.
tn arder not to scare Clara, Horace decided to take it slowly.
Looking at Clara's worried look, Horace gave a wry smile.
As a decisive businessman, Horace had never been so hesitant and cautious.
“Eat your food."
Horace said expressiontessly, “After you finish, I'll drive you to the subway station” Clara nodded, relieved that Horace did not offer to send her downstairs of the company.
Did this mean that Horace began to put himself in Clara's shoes? Taking the subway to the magazine, Clara was told to see Darren before she could sit down.
Clara got a bad hunch.
Since Darren came back from Queensvale, he stopped picking on Clara.
But why did he want to see her now? Clara went to Darren's office in doubt.
“Mr.
Kirldand, what can Udo for you?"
“Clara.” Darren looked at Clara with a cold expression and said, ‘ve heard that you want your salary in advance this month, right?* Clara got upset.
