Become the Wife of A CEO

Darren was startled.

He didn’t expect Horace to react this way when seeing these photos.

Horace thought Horace would be furious and break up with Clara.

However, Horace looked indifferent.

Did it mean that Horace believed in Clara?

Darren was frustrated by this idea.

He couldn’t accept this.

Why did Horace trust Clara so much? Clara was just Horace’s mistress.

Darren had been in a relationship with Clara. Nonetheless, when he saw those photos, he thought that Clara was a dissolute woman without even thinking about it.

Did it mean that Darren didn’t trust Clara?

Thinking of this, Darren tried his best to calm himself down.

Darren thought he couldn’t be wrong.

The evidence were those photos!

Darren told himself that Horace didn’t care about it because Horace didn’t love Darren at all.

“Darren, you seem to be very interested in my woman,” Horace said in an impassive voice.

Darren froze.

Looking up at Horace who remained calm, Darren suddenly realized that he was acting like a clown.

Besides, although Horace was sitting in a wheelchair, he looked extremely elegant and graceful.

This reminded Darren of what Sean had told him. Darren’s father, Sean Kirkland, who was always arrogant, said that he would have lost if Horace hadn’t lost his legs.

Thinking of this, Darren felt very depressed.

Darren had thought of himself as a genius. But now, he realized that he was far dwarfed by Horace.

Although Darren didn’t have to compare himself with Horace, this perspective made Darren irritable for no reason.

Somehow, Darren said, “Yes. After all, I dated her in college. You might not know it, Horace.”

Darren deliberately made his voice frivolous, as if he wanted to anger Horace.

Darren’s words worked.

Horace clenched the armrest of the wheelchair silently, and soon, he sneered, “Really?”

Horace’s tone was cold, which made Darren’s hair stand on end.

Only then did Darren realize that he seemed to have gone too far. His face turned pale and his tone softened. “Horace, don’t be angry. You don’t have to take such a woman seriously. I asked this because I’m afraid your wife will be upset. ”

The identity of Horace’s new wife was kept unknown.

It was said that Russell had wanted Horace to marry a woman from a noble family, which was even regarded as a threat by Sean. However, Horace suddenly announced that he had married an ordinary girl from a regular family.

Darren had been back for a long time, but he hadn’t seen Horace’s wife yet.

Horace squinted at Darren and didn’t say anything.

Darren realized that Horace didn’t want to talk about this. Darren felt a little embarrassed and finally answered Horace’s question. “I get these photos from an anonymous email.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Anonymous?” Horace repeated in an expressionless tone.

Darren nodded, but he was unwilling to give up. “Horace, a word of caution, however. Clara is reckless in her personal life, so she even has a bad reputation in the company. You’d better…”

“Darren.” Before Darren could finish his words, Horace interrupted him in an unpleasant voice, “To some extent, it’s none of your business.”

Only then did Darren realize that he should stop, so he lowered his eyes and said, “I’m sorry.”

“Well, Darren, if there is nothing else, I should go home.” Horace tightened his collar and said, “My wife is waiting for me at home.”

With that, Horace ignored Darren and walked out of the cafe.

After Horace got into the car and seated himself, Isaac, who was sitting in the passenger seat, felt that the mood in the car was super subdued.

“Isaac.” Horace said, “How is your investigation going?”

It took Isaac a few seconds to realize what Horace meant. “Do you mean the incident that happened to Miss Selman two years?”

“Yes.”

“Because it’s been a long time since then, so it does take time and work.”

“You can ask Darren about it. He received an email related to that event.”

“Yes, sir.”

As Horace tapped on the armrest of the wheelchair, his face turned gloomy.

How dare they plot against Clara!

Also…

When Horace saw Darren who came out of the cafe outside, his eyes turned even colder.

Horace heard that Darren had given up on Clara and was going to get married soon.

If so, Darren shouldn’t be so concerned about the relationship between them.

Thinking of this, Horace sneered.

He didn’t expect that he would fight for Clara with his nephew.

Clara didn’t even know how she finished this terrible day.

When it was time to get off work, Clara left the office as fast as she could.

When Clara got home, she saw Darren, who always came back later than her, was waiting in the living room.

“Where are Martha and Donald?” After Clara took off her shoes, she walked into the living room and tried her best to look normal.

“I gave them a day off today.” Therefore, only Horace and Clara were in this house. Horace stood up from the wheelchair and took out the dishes from the kitchen. “The dinner is ready. Let’s eat.”

Clara rubbed her slightly red eyes, nodded, and walked into the dining room.

During this dinner, both Clara and Horace were silent and deep in thought.

Horace finished his meal and whispered after a moment, “Clara, how about changing your job?”

Clara didn’t expect Horace to say this, so she was shocked, “Why do you want me to change my job?”

Horace looked at Clara. “Your company is too far from home, and it doesn’t pay well. You can find a better one.”

Clara also knew that a pay rise would be offered if she switched her job. If it weren’t for the fact that her mother was ill, Clara might have left GLAM.

The monthly medical bills were so much that Clara couldn’t change her job now.

However, Clara couldn’t tell this to Horace, so she pursed her lips. “I’m very happy in GLAM, so I don’t want to leave there.”

Hearing this, Horace squeezed the fork in his hand.

“Really?” Horace looked at Clara with mixed feelings in his heart.
