Seeing them, Nova burst into tears. Her capacity for instantly crying deserved an award.
âMario, I took Clarie to get some dessert just now. But Clara didnât allow me to touch the kid, and she even slapped me.â
I glared at her, âIf you have to act like a bitch, I will give you another slap. Besides, youâd better take care of your fetus, because I donât mind doing something bad to respond to your bitch behavior.â
Nova frowned, looking at me, âWe can talk peacefully. Why do we have to use force?â
She changed her attitude. Then she asked my daughter, âClarie, do you want anything else to eat?â
Clarie looked up at me and Nova whose eyes filled with tears. Clever as my daughter, she said, âMom hit her because she irritated mom.â
Mario was surprised, then he nodded at Clarie, âI knew. Itâs not your momâs fault.â
Clarie nodded, handing her dessert to Dennis. She spoke in a soft voice, âDennis, shall we go home? Mom is unhappy.â
Dennis stared at me. Though he said nothing, he trusted me.
Mario didnât care about his crying wife. What he was fully concerned about was Clarie. He talked with Clarie until getting out of the restaurant.
we said our farewells and left. Getting in the car, Clarie fell asleep soon.
At the crossing waiting for the green light.
Dennis held my hand, âStill angry?â
I shrugged, âNope.â
He smiled, âI want to know what kind of words she said made you angry.â
He then stared at my hand, asking me gently, âDoes it hurt?â
âIt was Nova who was hit. How could I hurt?â I remembered what Nova said, and stared at his crotch unconsciously.
He was confused at my undisguised gaze, âWhat are you thinking about?â
Realizing my gaze made him uncomfortable, I looked away. Then I asked, âHave you ... removed it?â
It seemed he didnât get what I meant. The light turned green and he started the car. He only asked in confusion, âWhat?â
Four years ago, he inserted a contraceptive ring inside his body. I had not been with him for four years, so I didnât know what happened during this period.
Given what Nova said, he might not remove the ring, which led to that rumor.
âRemove what?â He was baffled.
I blushed, âThe contraceptive ring. Didnât you pull it out?â
He chuckled, leering at me, âIf you want a baby, Iâd love to pull it out.â
I...
I pressed my lips, meditating. So he didnât remove it.
âWearing it for long may cause infertility!â I didnât know if four years wearing that would have any bad influence.
He smiled, âDonât worry. Iâm ripped. No matter how many kids you want, I can satisfy your need.â
Neglecting his glib words, I said seriously, âMake an appointment with your doctor to take it out tomorrow.â
If we couldnât accompany each other forever, I didnât expect him childless for the rest of his life.
He looked at me, chuckling, âHaving a baby is not a matter of urgency.â
...
Busy as him, removing the ring had been postponed indefinitely.
But what I didnât expect was that I would be the first person to be informed of Bernice's death.
It often rained in September. Preparing for the exam, I hardly went out.
It was unexpected that I received a message saying âTurn on the TV and wait for her death.â
I treated the message as a prank.
So I turned off my phone and continued reviewing.
Followed was the call from Jackie whose words were strangely remorseful, âIs it Dennis who did that?â
âWhatâs wrong?â
Realizing I didnât know what happened, she added, âBernice was killed at home, which police are investigating. I hear that her body is very ugly.â
I was shocked, closing my book in hand unconsciously. I turned on the TV.
Thatâs right. Her death had aroused a heated discussion.
âIsnât Dennis there?â Jackie asked at the other end.
I frowned, remembering what she said at first. In a cold voice, I spoke, âHe is not that bad.â
Realizing I was angry, she immediately apologized.
People would change. Being in the business circle for such a long time had already made her a demon.
Anyway, we had different beliefs. Hanging up the phone, I stared at the message I received just now.
I called the number of that message, but nobody answered. Thinking for a while, I phoned Dennis.
The phone put through, It seemed a meeting was going on at the other end. âWhatâs wrong, Clara?â
Not loudly did he speak, but the meeting became silent.
âWhatâs wrong with Bernice?â I didnât mean to blame, so I added in a soft voice, âI received a weird message.â
âLet it alone. She has ended business with the George Group. No matter what happens to her is none of our business. Donât overthink.â He said in a low, hoarse voice.
Think for seconds, I nodded, then hung up the phone.
But I couldnât help thinking about the strange message. I called the number again.
Nobody answered.
The bell rang. I got up, stepped downstairs, and opened the door.
Itâs Yara George.
Please Love Me, Mr. George ï¤Chapter 353 People Will Change 4 Having no time to respond, I had been slapped by her.
What a hard slap.
I felt giddy for seconds. Mouth bled.
I tried to repress my fury, looking at her, âDoes Miss George always behave in such an arbitrary manner to hit others without a reason?â
She sneered with much disdain. âReason? Berniceâs death is the reason. Clara, I thought you would live a peaceful life after your four yearsâ
departure. But I underestimated you. You ruined your own motherâs reputation. You are a demon. Bernice just had a thing for Dennis. If you donât like her, you have many ways to torment her rather than kill her.â
So basically, what she meant was I did the murder.
I almost laughed out. Looking at her, I said, âYara, you overestimate me. If I were like what you think about, do you think I will give you the chance to slap me?â
With disdain, she said, âStop lying. You have been slandered and insulted by her, so you must have had the thought of killing her. Whether the Kennedy family or the Lewis family can kill an actress in an unknown way. You are vicious enough to do that.â
It seemed that she wouldnât believe me anyway. Whatâs more, the murder was not the reason why she showed up here.
She didnât care at all about who was the murderer. She had firmly believed it was I who killed Bernice, which I forever could not change.
There were no other people here. I didnât want to talk more with her, so I said, âSince you have done the slap, you can go now!â
