Remembering how haggard he had become, Claire felt an indescribable pain in her heart. It was as if it were bleeding from being torn apart. The halo-crowned medical genius had seemingly experienced the ravages of time in just a few days and had suddenly aged a lot. Claire felt that she was to blame.
After tearfully finishing her meal, she said to Finnley Russell, "Brother, can you help me buy a new phone when you have time?"
"I already bought it! I already bought it!" At this moment, Mya came over with a phone box, "I've already reissued your SIM card for you, and it's the same model as the one you used before."
She walked over with her large belly, and with both hands, presented the exquisite box.
"Thank you, Sister-in-law." Claire was moved, took the box with both hands, gave her a smile, then turned around and went upstairs.
Everyone knew that she couldn't wait to contact Rowan Watson. A hint of sadness and determination crossed Violet's eyes, "She can't be with Rowan Watson again. This incident is a warning from God to us."
"..." A depressing silence fell upon the dining room.
Claire went upstairs and returned to her bedroom. The first number she dialed was Rowan Watson's. Her heart trembled as much as her fingers did when she dialed the familiar number.
In a little while, the call connected, "Claire." Rowan Watson's hoarse voice came through, full of intense heartache and longing.
"Rowan, I'm sorry." Claire's nose tingled, and she tried hard to hold back her tears, "It's all my fault. I let my aunt and uncle misunderstand you. I'm sorry."
"It's me who should say sorry, I failed to protect you." Hearing her apology, Rowan Watson's heart ached as if it was being twisted, "Claire, you should take care of yourself first. I'll come to you when your aunt and uncle calm down, and we will face it together, okay?"
"You won't give up, will you?" Claire asked while crying, "You still want me, right?" She felt she had interfered with his life trajectory.
She had divided his heart...
"Fool, of course." Rowan Watson was very happy that she was still alive, he said, "Claire, I will definitely protect you in the future."
