Chapter 26 Moira and Aiken understood each other, but Al ties with the Gurman family for good. Allie was facing a tough situation. Moira and Aiken left without hesitation, indicating their decision to cut Lara looked at Claire, still kneeling on the ground, and said angrily, “Ms. Blake, why aren’t you getting up? Are you trying to make others think I’m bullying you?” Barbera pouted angrily too. She looked at Claire and said sharply, “Alfie must be blind. I don’t know what he sees in that that, She’s nowhere near as good as Moira,” After hearing Barbara’s words, Claire clenched her hands tightly on the ground. She hadn’t expected Barbara to say such harsh words. Even Moira hadn’t insulted her like that At that moment, Alfie, who had gone after Moira, returned, Claire saw him and immediately stumbled up from the ground, deliberately crashing into Alfie’s arms. Alfie instinctively steadied her. He looked down, seeing Claire’s face soaked in tears. He froze for a moment, and then said, “Claire, you don’t have to worry about what happened tonight!” Claire bit her lip, shaking her head weakly. “It’s all my fault! If it weren’t for me, Moira would have forgiven you for sure! Alfie, your sister is right. I won’t bother you anymore!” With that, she covered her mouth and ran away, crying “Claire!” Alfie tried to go after her, but Jeffrey stopped him. “You get back here!” Feeling his father’s anger, Alfie reluctantly halted his steps, his expression dark as he walked back to the private room. Jeffrey felt utterly embarrassed today. He glared at Alfie, gritting his teeth, trying to resist the urge to slap him again. “I thought you were better than this. Because of that Claire, you’ve messed things up big time between our family and the Jimenez family. What’s going on, Alfie? You’ve let me down so much!” Jeffrey’s last words hit Alfie hard. He didn’t understand how things had gotten to this point. He’d
only gone to help Claire before. Lara, who usually stood up for Alfie, now walked past him with a grim expression, Barbara looked even angrier. “Alfie, if you can’t see that Claire’s a b**h, then you must be blind!” “How can you say that?” Alfie frowned. Barbara shook her head i ad in disbelief. “Am I wrong? Do you still think Claire’s a good person? You must be out of your mind!” With that, Barbara huffed out of the room. The room was empty except for Alfie. He stared at the fallen cup on the ground. Moira’s words, “it’s over,” kept echoing in his mind. Suddenly, he felt panicked. He rushed out of the room, got into his car, and drove towards the Jimenez family’s villa. But halfway there, he received a call from an unknown number, knowing that something had happened to Claire. He slammed on the brakes. “Alfie, you don’t need to worry about me anymore. Just let me… let me die like this!” Claire weakly spoke through the phone. He couldn’t ignore Claire’s situation, so he decided to apologize to Moira tomorrow instead. But Alfie didn’t expect that tomorrow, even scarier things were waiting for him,Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
