Clara remained under observation overnight and had a head CT in the morning. After confirming she was fine, she was discharged. In the cab back to Zwingenrath, Clara contemplated her next move. She would have to return to the hotel. Her belongings and documents were there.

When the taxi arrived, Clara paid and hastily returned to her room. She was startled to find someone in her room. Although the man’s back was to her, she recognized him. It was Walter.

Clara was frightened. She took a step back. Why was he here? Did he come to check if she was dead? Did he come to finish her off?

Hearing movement, Walter got up and walked to Clara. His imposing height and open collar made him look fierce. His dark eyes were fixed on Clara.

Walter felt angry when Clara stared at him like he was a stranger. “What? Don’t you recognize me? Talk!”

Walter scrutinized Clara. Except for looking paler, she seemed fine. However, her outfit and shoes were all high-end luxury and couldn’t be found in common stores. His gaze turned cold.

Clara was expressionless. “What do you want me to say? I’m still alive. Are you disappointed?”

Clara had never acted so coldly. Walter felt uncomfortable. His face turned ugly.

Since Walter failed to answer Clara’s call, he had been calling her but she never picked up. He couldn’t contact her for the next day. He had Vernon find out where she stayed and had been waiting here. Now that she was back, she took that tone to him. Who had she been with?

“Where’s your phone?” Walter asked through gritted teeth.

Clara looked at Water confusedly. Didn’t he know? “I lost it.”

Walter frowned. He took out a piece of paper from his suit pocket. “Sign this. You can start work tomorrow. I won’t hold the past against you.”

Clara listened, thinking, ‘What did he mean? Did he forget he wants me dead? If I yield, would he spare me? Should I be grateful?’ She bowed her head and sneered. She didn’t want to die, and she couldn’t die. She had to persevere for Marlie.

Clara had already made up her mind. She had to take Marlie away and disappear. She could only endure now. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Clara picked up a pen from the table and signed without looking at the agreement. She handed it to him. “Done. When can I see Marlie?”

Walter was surprised by her ready agreement. Something felt off.
