Lost in Mr. Preston's Temptation

In a moment, Clara's expression returned to normal. She took the bag from the chair and threw the necklace into it.

After tidying up, she opened the door and left the room.

In the living room of the suite, Donny was talking to the secretariat department about work. When he heard footsteps behind him, he quickly put away his mobile phone. He turned around and saw Clara coming out of the room and politely said, "Madam, good morning.”

Clara nodded and asked him, "Where is Baxter?"

"He woke after a day." Donny paused, and then said helplessly, "However, he felt that he had screwed up, and didn't have the face to see you. He went back the same day."

"It has nothing to do with him," Clara said. "From Dr. Deleon, I know that it was an illegal drug. Furthermore, our opponent is too cunning."

"I have to thank Baxter. If it weren't for his help that night, Sharon's plan would have succeeded."

Donny was relieved to hear Clara say this.

He picked up the car keys on the coffee table and left the room with Clara, "Madam, do you want to go to the hotel restaurant for breakfast?"

Clara was a little hungry, but when she looked at the time on her phone, she said, "It's almost noon, let's go back and have lunch."

"Okay, then I'll send a message to Ethan." Donny took out his phone again.

"He said that I should tell him when you woke up, I was just busy with work and forgot about it..."

"No need, Ethan is also busy." Clara stopped him and smiled, "And I'm also fine."

Donny didn't move and glanced at Clara.

Probably because Clara had just washed and dried her head, it was puffy and hung behind her shoulders. The corners of her mouth carried a faint smile, and she looked no different from usual. However, Donny heard Clara's change in attitude from the tone of her voice.

"Okay." Donny didn't say anything more and put away his phone.

Clara hadn't returned to the villa for three days, and Mae had been constantly worried about her. Now when she returned, Mara ran up to her and held her hands. "Miss, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Clara smiled, "I just felt unwell and stayed at the hotel for a few days.

"That's good." Mae finally let go of her worries. Then she said, "That Steve Lane is a bastard. How would he dare to do that in broad daylight? I think the police should punish him and lock him up for several years!"

Clara thought the same.

However, she also knew that Steve was now an important person in the business world. Not only did he control ARCTIC, but he had also developed overseas connections early on as well as had an excellent team of lawyers around him.

Those capitalist families behind the scenes would also certainly protect Steve Lane for their own benefit.

This time Ethan had intervened and had gotten Steve detained for ten days. This had greatly affected ARCTIC stock price and Steve Lane himself.

"Okay, Mae, let's not talk about him." Clara hugged Mae and smiled coquettishly at her. "I haven't eaten for a few days and am starving. I really want to eat that lotus dish you make."

"Fine, fine, I'll make it for you." Mae caressed Clara's cheek and quickly went to the kitchen.

Clara went to the living room and took a seat. A servant brought her orange juice, and she drank more than half of it.

In the other hand she turned on her phone and went scrolled through Twitter.

In addition to the gossip about celebrities, the news about Steve Lane trying to violate his ex-wife in The Mcerrin Hotel was also trending.

After reading the comments, Clara found that the publicity team behind Steve had quickly bought an army of commenters to try to skew the discussion, saying that she wanted to remarry Steve, and that it was just a fight between a couple.

At first, she just wanted to ignore it, but then she saw that some netizens had accepted the publicity team's version of events completely were saying some very nasty things about her.

Clara sneered, took screenshots of the comments from Steve's publicity team's commenters, and put them on her Twitter.

In her post she also clarified that she had already married again, and that it was unthinkable for her to remarry Steve Lane. She also asked the netizens why Steve Lane would be detained by the police for 10 days if it was just a small fight.

When all was done, Clara was about to logout.

However, she accidentally saw a Twitter post that had been posted just three minutes ago.

From "the parasol tree doesn't shed leaves": "my god, world-class pianist Delores Clayton is actually married! Her husband is the Preston family's third eldest from the Sweetriver area!"
