Chapter 27 Attempted Suicide
“Does it matter who I’m doing it for? Clayton the person you love is back, my grandmother is gone, there is no longer any involvement between us, let’s just let it go.”
Flora looked at the ceiling and said indifferently, without a hint of fluctuation, as if a still painting, and like a piece of fragile glass, touching it is broken.
“You do not think, Flora you not only harmed me for so many years, and now repeatedly harmed Blair, you think these revenge can be understood in one sentence?”
Her words succeeded in enraging Clayton, and he violently shook Flora’s body, forcing her to look straight at himself.
Clayton’s eyes burned at the woman in front of him, who gave her the right to say leave him, he was not allowed to.
“So you want my life too? I’m sorry, I don’t die that easily, if there’s nothing wrong with Mr Ward, I need to rest.”
Flora’s eyes wavered as she condemned Clayton and quickly gave the order to leave.
She is already living again, the past of those who have to make concessions can only become the past. Now she cherishes the opportunity to live more than anyone else, Clayton and Blair want her to die, it is absolutely impossible.
“You!”
Clayton looked angrily at the woman pretending to sleep, if in the past he would have thrown her off the bed without mercy, but now looking at her miserable white face, his heart was suddenly pulled hard.
The corners of his eyes flashed with careless frustration, especially that “Mr Ward”, cold and heartless, making him feel a blockage.
Clayton sat up from the bed and took one last look at Flora, whose eyes were closed, before closing the door and leaving.
“Sir, we got it.”
The butler had been waiting in front of the bedroom door for a long time, and when he saw Clayton come out, he respectfully handed over the information in his hand.
“Go to the study.”
Clayton spoke icily, closing the door with unexpected care, even he himself could not figure out why.
“Miss Wood’s grandmother passed away a week ago, and Theo was accompanying Miss Wood during this period to hold the funeral.”
The butler, who had investigated all that had happened to Flora during this period, reported, and could not help but look up at Clayton to say something.
Clayton sat on the leather sofa, the news of Flora’s grandmother’s death, he also only learned last night when his people brought Flora back from the cemetery, but he did not expect that grandmother died a week ago.
He understands the status of his grandmother in Flora’s heart, and with her gone, I’m afraid Flora has nothing to live for, and his heart inexplicably aches.
“Is there something else you’re hiding from me?”
Clayton looked at the housekeeper, his cold and stern voice even the housekeeper who grew up with him could not help but be frightened.
“Yes.” The butler immediately bent his head, “Another thing is about Miss Wood’s injury, it’s … a serious concussion caused by an unsuccessful suicide, this one is the hospital case.”
The butler faltered and spoke, his husband’s heart wanted to be cloudy, especially after he married Flora, it was even more elusive, even he could not guess.
“What did you say?”
Clayton asked in a fierce voice, with a nervous look that he didn’t even realize.
The housekeeper looked at Clayton in shock and reported all the details of Flora’s suicide by jumping off the building.
Flora’s heart is kind, not like Clayton’s surface resentment, this he felt from the first time he met Flora, but these are the master’s family matters, he also has no right to interfere, can only silently look at the eyes.
“I know, you go ahead and go out.”
Clayton suddenly panicked, he waved his hand to indicate the butler to go out, and only then did he understand why Flora changed so much before and after.
He clenched his fist, his eyes clouded as he looked at the information on the table, but did not feel a bit of pity. So, Flora had premeditated to escape from him in this way?
If the death of his grandmother was the only way to make him sympathize with him and let Flora go, then it was really delusional.
There was no way he would let go.
