Lost in Mr. Preston's Temptation novel Chapter 12

Ethan momentarily felt a trace of displeasure. He picked up the porridge he had brought and took a sip. Then he leaned over, kissed the woman, pried open her teeth and forced the porridge into her mouth.

Perhaps because she was so hungry, Clara instinctively swallowed the porridge even though she was sleeping.

He continued to feed her like this, bite by bite, and soon the whole bowl of porridge was in Clara’s stomach. Only then did Ethan’s furrowed brow relax.

He wanted to pull out his hand supporting Clara’s neck, but she held it tightly and pressed it to her cheek.

“Mommy......” Clara seemed to have found someone to lean on as she muttered to herself. Warm tears dampened the man’s palm. “I miss you so much...... take me away......”

Ethan looked down at the woman in silence, his eyes cold. “Clara, only you can save yourself.”

He withdrew his hand unceremoniously and left the room.

In her dream, Clara saw her dead parents criticizing her for falling in love with Steve and for letting him trick the company from her.

Overwhelmed by their questioning, she cried and begged them to take her away.

She heard someone speak next to her ear, “Only you can save yourself...”

She abruptly opened her eyes and saw the snow-white ceiling.

Originally, grandma would have been fine. It was Ruby who had ran to the hospital to tell her grandmother the news of Clara’s attempted murder. Grandma was so angry hearing the news that she died.

She would take back ARCTIC, avenge her parents, and make Steve Lane and Ruby Leke pay blood for blood!

Clara’s turbid eyes became cold and firm. She picked up the long dress on the chair, changed into it, and then stepped out of the bedroom.

After going downstairs, she saw a man sitting in the dining room.

The man was wearing a light gray vest and a shirt. It seemed that he had just came back from work. His face was thin and cold, and he was eating dinner while listening to what Donny was saying.

“Ms. Rowan.” Donny saw Clara first and smiled slightly. “Are you feeling better?”

Clara nodded, “How long did I sleep?”

“One week. “

“That long?” She was shocked.

She didn’t know why, but she didn’t feel hungry even though she had been asleep for so long.

A maid went into the kitchen, picked up a bowl and chopsticks, and placed it in front of Clara.
