Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run novel Chapter 200

Clara couldn't be bothered to listen to Simon's endless chatter, and her brow knitted in slight annoyance. She was trying to remember who she had really seen through Simon's face. Why was her memory so blank?

After Simon finished his self-praise, he turned to her with an earnest question, “Do you think the accident might have been a hidden blessing? Maybe it jogged some memories. You used to look at me so intensely, like you couldn't imagine being apart.”

Clara's lips twitched. Was it really intense focus, or was she just trying to see someone else in him? Her mind remained a frustrating blank.

Simon started boasting again. “By the way, I've been digging into the accident that caused your amnesia. It wasn't as simple as it seemed. The driver just vanished, and even their records are gone. Do you know what that means?”

“What does it mean?” she asked.

Simon leaned in slowly, “Whoever's behind your amnesia is a big deal, someone powerful enough to erase a person from the records.”

Only a few influential families could pull off something like that.

Clara raised an eyebrow. Ever since she woke up, she hadn’t given much thought to the accident. So much had happened since then. She was surprised Simon actually came through with useful information.

They were in Dylan’s office, so she quickly put some distance between herself and Simon.

Simon was not pleased. He tried to close the gap again, but Dylan's voice broke the tension. “Is there something you need?”

Simon stopped, his demeanor changing as he faced Dylan. “Yeah, I’ve got something. I found more footage from that day. Even though you had the original surveillance deleted, other passing cars caught you on camera. You clearly took Clara away. But when I called you about her whereabouts, you pretended not to know. Are you just trying to get me to back off so you can have Clara to yourself?”
