Chapter 51. Only Six Months

That afternoon, Theo came by again and handed Claire two boxes of medicine.After taking the meds, Claire walked out to the backyard and ran into Jason. She didn’t even look at him, as if he wasn’t there. But Jason grabbed her wrist and looked at Theo."What did you give her?"Before Theo could answer, Claire said coldly, "Just some vitamins." Then she pulled her hand away and walked off without looking back."You came all the way here just to give her vitamins?" Jason asked Theo again.Theo chuckled. "Not really. She said she wasn’t feeling well and asked me to bring some. But I also came to report on Grandma’s health," he lied.---Back in her room, Claire looked at the medicine and found a note: (You need to take both types of medicine together. Only once a day, or skip it if you’re not feeling any symptoms.)Seeing the note, Claire smiled. Theo really was a good guy.The medicine worked. Her pain eased within an hour.

“Mandy was curious about the wound on your head, so I told her about it,” Claire said. Seeing Jason’s slightly pained expression, she gave him a bright smile. “So? Should I explain it in more detail?”Jason’s voice turned hoarse. “You know… if you say something, you better be ready to take responsibility.”Claire looked into his eyes, a bit panicked, but she just turned her face away without saying anything.They left after that. Jason sat in the front seat next to Paul, who was driving, while Claire and Mandy sat in the back.The villa where Grandma lived was surrounded by mountains and a river.

Chapter 53. Stay Here

Claire was sitting by the riverbank when the drizzle started. Her hair was almost wet, and her tears blended with the rain on her pale, thin face.Suddenly, she heard footsteps, and a thick jacket was placed over her shoulders.Claire was a little startled and turned around, but felt disappointed when she saw it was Gabriel.Why was she disappointed? What exactly was she hoping for? Did she think Jason would come and protect her?Gabriel was shocked when he saw how sad she looked.“Chloe, why are you crying?”“It’s nothing,” Claire said, turning her gaze back to the river.Gabriel pressed his lips together and sighed, clearly regretting something.“I’m sorry, Chloe. This whole mess has made everyone hate you, and the worst part is, I couldn’t do anything about it,” he said.“If I could, I’d fix everything so you wouldn’t have to suffer.”Claire felt a bitter sadness. Everyone mocked her, insulted her. Even her husband thought she was cruel. But this man—he was being kind.She didn’t k

“You?” Mandy was shocked when she saw Claire stepping out of Jason’s room.Claire pouted and purposely left the door open so Mandy could see Jason half-dressed.“Hey!” Jason was startled and quickly turned his back to them while buttoning his pants. “Close the door!” he said to Claire, and she immediately shut it.Mandy looked even angrier and clearly jealous.“You’ll never get what already belongs to me,” Claire said confidently, even though deep down she wasn’t sure at all.Mandy was furious, and it showed on her face, while Claire just gave her a disgusted smirk.“You should just wait outside. Why are you always trying to sneak into someone else’s husband’s room, huh?” Claire said with a smug smile. “Go to the kitchen and make yourself a drink, little sister. I’m too exhausted to entertain guests. I think I’ll go back to sleep.”Mandy followed behind her. “You bitch!” she shouted, raising her hand, ready to pull Claire’s hair.But Claire noticed some maids walking by and sneered. “
