Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister

When Clara walked out of the Merivia Bay, she was stupefied.

She finally broke off all relations with them…

From now on, she owed nothing to Glenn nor the Middleton family. What the Middletons had done to her was no longer important. From this day on, her mom was the only family she got left.

Well, no.

She also had Horace.

Thinking of this, Clara felt uplifted and motivated.

Then Horace and Clara got in the car. Horace asked Isaac to drive them home.

Clara was either lost in her thought or stared into the space. Her eyes were always red.

Horace thought he should let her vent out her feelings.

She had been too exhausted from facing the painful past. One without strong willpower would be overwhelmed by it.

The Middletons bombarded her with unbearable words. Clara was too fragile to handle it. She must have been heartbroken.

Horace held her in his arms and said in a deep voice, "It's OK to cry if you want to."

In Horace's warm and strong arms, Clara was cozy and warm as if she was by the hearth. She no longer feared the frostiness and cruelty.

She wept in his arms, unleashing all her grievance accumulated since childhood. She didn't need to overstrain herself or put on a brave face. She could just cry when she needed to.

Clara could finally make a clear break with them after so many years of entanglement. She was bullied, abused and tortured when she was young. When she grew up, they constantly put her down. She thought she never belonged to that family.
