"SLAP!" Claire was slapped hard by her father the moment she entered the house.The slap was so hard that Claire's legs gave out and she fell to the ground. Her head started to ache from her earlier accident.“Dad!” Claire cried out. Shock was written all over her face. She knew she would fave some problems when she comes home because of what happened at the college today.However, being welcomed by hard slapped is not what she had anticipated. Her father could have even waited until she explains herself first. Claire just stared at him in shock. She just didn't know all her family members hated her. What did she ever do wrong to deserve their hatred? Why doesn't she feel welcome in her own family?Her father didn't even bother to inquire why her head was bandaged. He thought Claire just bandage it to escape his punishment.“Don't you ever dare call me your Dad, you stupid being!” Mr. Wilson said furiously as he stared down at his daughter with disdain. At that moment, he really reg
Claire couldn't help her tears anymore. She had had enough of all of them already. Why do they treat her like an outsider? What's actually their problem with her? This is her family. She is supposed to feel safe and protected here. However, it seems like this family is rather her nightmare. “Claire, let me out! Give me control. I promise to send her to the grave earlier than she would expect. How dare this old fart?” Scarlett said inside her head with a fume. However, Claire blocked her before she could even continue. The three of them had made a promise never to touch or let any of the family members know about them. However, Scarlett felt like this family needed some real beatings to teach them a lesson.“Ha! Look at you, Claire. You are older than I am. However, I think I have more brains than you. How can you make both Dad and Grandma angry? Aren't you being undutiful?” Claire's younger sister, Rita Wilson said with her sweet and fake innocent little voice.Kelvin is the older o
Claire ran as fast as she could without looking back or even checking where she was going. All she wanted was to run as fast as she could from her so-called family. The family had done nothing but brought her pain.She was really hurt by the revelation they revealed to her. So, after all the sufferings she had to receive from their hands, she is after all not a Wilson. How did this happen? Why is she so unlucky? Why did her real parents abandon her? Where is her real family? Where is she even going now? What is she supposed to do with her messed up life? Who will help her? What's actually in this life for her except misery?Many questions ran through her head, making her pause in her running. Her head and heart were in turmoil.She stopped at a street not so far from the Wilson Mansion and squatted down to cry. Claire cried for so long, as if crying could wipe away all her pains and troubles. Her legs even became numb from squatting for long, however, she didn't even care. She was i
Claire was still thinking about it when she heard Mia speak in her mind.“I think Scarlett is right, Claire. I support her suggestion. Let's seek their help first. And if they don't help, then we think of what to do next. Currently, I think that'd the only solution we have.” Mia supported Scarlett's suggestion. Claire thought for a while before she agreed to their suggestion. Indeed, she doesn't have any suitable solution now.“Let's go to Uncle Cole's shop to borrow his phone and call them to help us. I don't of they would help me or not.,” Claire said and started walking to a mini supermarket not so far from her college since she wasn't even allowed to use a phone. Scarlett and Mia nodded in agreement as Claire walked to their destination. It took a while before she reached the supermarket. “Good evening, Uncle Cole's. May I use your phone for a brief moment? It's really urgent.” Claire said the moment she entered the store.“Hey, Claire… How are you doing? I heard what happened a
The three men stared at Claire as if they were demanding an explanation. What in the world happened for her to call all the three of them as if she is their mother?Moreover, the trio didn't like how they were getting more attention. Actually, their cars were getting more attention since they themselves were wearing a mask to prevent the onlookers from knowing their identity. The three most handsome and rich bachelors in the country would never appear in a place like this.People around started speculating about them with dirty thoughts and it made them feel uncomfortable. In fact, they wouldn't have gone to such a place if not because of Claire.George and Chase looked at their friend Ethan, whose coldness and anger were rising every second even under his mask.George didn't want things to escalate any more than it had become. He turned his attention to Claire and said calmly as he could. The last thing he wanted was to scare the girl in front of him, who looked exactly like his dec
Now it was Claire's turn to be stunned. This man really has no filter. How can he say something so unreasonable? When did she say something like that? Though she might have thought like that, it didn't mean she was going to say it straight forward. However, since she was already in his car, and he seemed to be helping her, she tried her best to calm down.“Uhm Mr. Richardson, please don't get angry. I fear the car is going to freeze from the coldness emitting from you.” Claire said sheepishly and dared not to raise her head to look at him.However, despite her head bowed, she could still feel a cold gaze on her. Claire cursed herself inwardly for being straightforward. After waiting for a while, she continued… “Actually, what I was saying was that, since your car hit me in the morning, my stomach was empty at that time, so…" She continued to say what she wanted to say, however, Ethan cut her off coldly.“I will throw you out whilst the car drives if you don't shut up!” He said lowly b
Ethan wished he was strong at that time to save her. He wished he could have done his best to protect her. His Angel was gone for good and it was all because of him. He would never stop blaming himself for the rest of his life.There's no way Claire can be her. His Angel is in the heavens now. His first love was no more. How he wished he could turn back time to save her from that unfaithful day. How he wished she would still be alive. How nice it would have been if Angel were alive and making him smile as no one could ever do.“I really miss you, Angel. Your naughtiness and cheerful and sweet smile.” Ethan said inwardly. Everyone saw him to be cold since childhood. Only Angel was able to penetrate his cold heart and occupy all the places in his heart and made him smile.However, the day that Angel was gone, she took all of Ethan's emotions with her. This made Ethan become even colder than before.Suddenly, their car came to a stop, jotting Ethan from his thoughts.“We are here, Boss
Claire sat there quietly after telling them about her story. “So… you mean to say that, upon reaching home after your accident, your family even didn't bother to question about the bandage on your head and told you this awful news?” Chase asked, feeling incredulous. Claire nodded her head as she proceeded to take a sip of her drink. “What the fuck! How could someone be this cruel? Didn't they even feel any little sympathy for you?” George asked, feeling agitated. Chase placed a hand on his lap and signaled him to calm down.“Yes… When I reached home, I wanted to explain my side of the story and also about my injuries. However, my Dad got angry and slapped me before I could even say anything. When I was about to explain again, my grandmother hit me hard on the back with her walking stick. I couldn't do or say anything. And even if I wanted to, I couldn't. My younger sister was the first person to tell me the truth in a pit of anger. I would still be in the darkness if she didn't v
