Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 48

Helena didn't expect Darren's reaction to be so drastic. She said, "Yeah, I was shocked too when I heard that. Darren, where are you going?"

Darren wasn't in the mood to go on listening. He quickly left the ward and went back to the company.

On the other side, in GLAM, Clara and Sarah were eating sandwiches in the pantry. Clara was reading recipes while eating. Sarah was absent-minded, glancing at Clara.

"If you have any questions, just ask," Clara said without raising her head. She had noticed the way Sarah looked at her.

Sarah's face turned red. She spoke with some embarrassment, "Well… nothing serious, but there are some rumors in the company..."

"About me and Darren?" Clara raised an eyebrow.

"More than that." Sarah bit her lip and finally said, "Well, Diane and I saw you get out of a luxury car, and then we noticed that there seemed to be something between you and Mr. Kirkland. Diane had a friend who was from the University of Zhanard, and she said..."

When she heard the words "University of Zhanard," Clara's heart raced.

She had left Hainding, the city she was familiar with, and came to Stratmont in the hope of getting rid of her bad reputation.

But that thing had become a stain on her life that she can't wash off. There were always people who knew about it wherever she went and then spread out like a virus.

Clara took the last bite of the sandwich and smiled indifferently, "What do they say about me? Did they say that I had been a slut when I was a student or did they say that I was with Darren?" Sarah didn't expect Clara to be so frank. She felt embarrassed, and she hurriedly said, "Clara, of course, I believe that you are not that kind of person!"

Clara looked at the little girl in front of her and felt warm, "Thank you, Sarah."

After lunch, Clara returned to the office. As expected, she saw many colleagues were still discussing her.

Clara smiled indifferently.

Two years ago, she could not bear such slander and insults. But now, she had grown up, she knew that escaping wouldn't solve any problems. Since she was innocent, why would she care about others' judgments?

Thinking of this, Clara sat down, trying to concentrate on preparing for tomorrow's interview. However, she suddenly heard a bang, and a man rushed in through the door.

Clara looked up in amazement and saw Darren's face blue. He rushed to her desk, and whispered, "Clara, come to my office!" Clara furrowed her brows, trying to refuse, but Darren had left.

The way people looked at Clara became even weirder. Diane even mocked, "It seemed like Mr. Kirkland has missed you. He is such a nice person. Did he forget that you've cheated on him?"

Clara glared at Diane and went to Darren's office.

Entering the door, she saw Darren walking around in the office.
