Three years of loving him, three days to erase myself from his world novel Chapter 309

She was not going to let them get away with it.

She logged onto an online portal and officially hired a private investigator to dig into the incident. Once she had the evidence, she would make them pay—especially Seraphina. Clara was determined to rip away every stolen accolade, layer by layer.

The investigator quickly replied, promising an update within a week.

Clara thanked them.

Just then, a text message popped up on her screen. It was from Julian.

[Grandmother is awake. Come see her tomorrow. She really misses you.]

Clara silently noted the information but did not reply, her mind shifting to her delayed departure plans.

Once Eleanor's condition stabilized, she would finally leave Capital City.

...

Half an hour later, the cab pulled up to the entrance of her apartment complex.

Clara stepped out.

Since it was still relatively early, she didn't rush upstairs, opting instead to walk toward the neighborhood park to feed the strays.

She adored cats and always kept treats in her purse. Back when she had a regular office job, she would spend her free time feeding the local strays, a habit she had maintained since moving here.

In truth, back when she was still with Julian, she had desperately wanted to adopt a cat. But Julian was a relentless germaphobe who detested animals, so she had buried the desire.

Clara's eyes dimmed briefly as she pushed the memory away. She tore open a packet of treats and mimicked a soft meow, her voice gentle and sweet.

The local strays had grown accustomed to her presence. Hearing her voice, a cat emerged from beneath the bushes.

It was a gorgeous white stray she called Snowball. The cat trotted over obediently, rubbing affectionately against Clara's calves to demand the snacks.

Clara's heart melted completely. She crouched down, feeding the cat with one hand while gently stroking its head with the other, her eyes brimming with affection.

But as she watched the cat eat, she noticed its sagging belly.

Snowball had been pregnant!
