Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run novel Chapter 304

Megan noticed her friend's anxiety and quickly asked, "What's up?"

"My boyfriend's hurt, and he's not picking up his phone. I'm a bit worried."

"But didn't you guys break up? Why are you still concerned about him?"

Clara glanced at the picture on her phone, her lips pressed into a tight line. "I don't know, maybe I still care about him. I just don't know how to deal with him. He's sensitive and a bit unpredictable."

He never seemed to believe she liked him, almost obsessively so.

Clara put her phone down, took a sip of her juice, and heard Megan ask, "Clara, do you like Mr. Dylan?"

Clara was surprised, unsure why Megan would bring him up. She frowned. "No, I don't have feelings for him. Plus, the Ferguson family is a mess. I don't want to get involved, and I've already left Ferguson Corporation."

Megan was taken aback. "When did you quit?"

"A few days ago."

As she said this, Clara noticed Megan's mood lift.

"Clara, why not get back with your boyfriend? If you still care, maybe talk things out."

Clara rubbed her temples. It wasn't that she didn't want to talk; it was just that Z's intense nature left her unsure.

Her phone buzzed again, this time with a video of him standing on a cliff's edge.

The wind howled fiercely in the video, more terrifying than the storm at Azure Shores a few days ago.

Seeing his feet so close to the edge made Clara's heart skip a beat.

She quickly tried calling Z again, but he still didn't answer.

Her heart raced as she quickly texted him.

"Z, don't do anything stupid. At least think about your family."

After sending it, she remembered his brother had passed away, and the tombstone was just outside his place.

Her chest tightened, and she quickly sent another message.

"Think about me."

Her palms were sweaty, and deep down, she feared he might actually jump.

She didn't know him well, but sensed that beneath his intensity lay something deeper, like the ocean's depths, which she didn't want to explore.
