Chapter 210
Claire Hudson hit the wall with a bang and fell on the carpet. Her throat had the strong taste of blood, and she threw up a mouthful right then.
That wave of Jared Gallagher's hand just now nearly killed her.
"Jared... It's me..." said Claire Hudson as she looked up at Jared Gallagher.
Jared Gallagher stood before the window sill, looking tall and dashing. He looked down upon Claire Hudson, lying on the ground in pain and embarrassment. He knew Aurora Barrett better than anyone else. She had an alluring fragrance on her body which Claire Hudson could never compare.
He should have noticed it when he hugged her, but he was captivated by desire. Moreover, the room card was given to her. He did not expect someone else.
He could not help the urge to wash himself a few times clean upon the thought that he had hugged someone for a few seconds just now.
Jared Gallagher's cold black eyes stared into Claire Hudson as though it was quenched with poison. After a long time, he rolled out a syllable from his throat, "Why is it you? Hurry up and say something if you don't want to die yet!"
Never would Claire Hudson have expected such a massive reaction from him. Just now, she was still pretty confident, but no one knew he would want to kill her when he saw that she was not Aurora Barrett.
Claire Hudson was terrified. Her plans of seduction moments ago disappeared in the sudden pain. She felt that Jared Gallagher was not joking and quickly answered, "Jared, I... Aurora let me in. Aurora was the one... who gave me the room card..."
Aurora Barrett gave the room card.
Jared Gallagher had long suspected so, but now Claire Hudson has confirmed it. He curled his thin lips, and his well-built chest was heaving up and down. He lifted his foot and kicked a chair, turning it over.
"How dare she?!" thought Jared Gallagher.
"Well, isn't she splendid?!" he thought to himself.
