No Strings Attached novel (Clara and Ian) novel Chapter 428

Clara’s head slammed against the deck with a bone-chilling thud. The pain radiated through her skull. Crimson blood trickled down from her forehead.

Despite the pain, Clara’s ears tuned into Heidi’s words. She spoke of the Campbell family’s daughter, as if Clara had any claim to that title.

What did the Campbell family have to do with her?

With eyes bloodshot, Clara glared at Heidi. “You must be mistaken. I’m Casey’s child. I have nothing to do with the Campbell family.”

Heidi’s response was a sinister laugh. “Is that baby in your belly so precious to them that they can’t even tell you the truth? Well, if no one dares to spill the beans, I will. They’re afraid you might lose the baby in a fit of emotion, but not me. I’d love nothing more than for that child to die inside you.”

“Listen up, Clara. You’re not Casey and Victoria’s daughter. You’re the long-lost daughter of the Campbell family, the one with the petal birthmark.

“You’re Paolo and May’s child. Bet you didn’t see that coming, right? That man who’s always at odds with you, he’s your real father.

“Ha! To save me, he’d hurt his own daughter. If you die today, it’s on him. In other words, he’s indirectly responsible for your death.”
