Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 209

"I don't know. You know I am not specialized in cosmetics." Clara tilted her head and glanced at Horace strangely, pursed her lips, and replied.

"Well." Horace tried his best to restrain his restless emotions. He didn't want Clara to find anything unusual. "I don't like the smell. Could you please wash it off?"

Clara frowned, feeling that Horace's reaction today was abnormal, but she didn't say anything. She kept her silence and headed to the bathroom.

After Clara left, Horace pressed the center of his eyebrows with his hand. It seemed that he was lost in thought.

Clara went to the bathroom and take a shower. She looked at herself in the bathroom mirror, thinking of Horace and what he had just done to her. She could not explain her feelings right now.

Horace had never treated her like this and had always been gentle and considerate. What happened today?

What's wrong with the perfume Elaine gave her? Why did Horace have such an unexpected reaction?

A series of questions weighed on Clara's mind, making her feel like she was about to lose her mind. She wanted to ask Horace, but she thought that she might never get an answer.

After washing her face with cold water, Clara stopped herself from thinking nonsense. Anyway, what she should know will always be known in the end. She did not want to hurt his feelings and their relationship by overacting.

After leaving the bathroom, Clara went to the bedroom to change into pajamas, but she didn't see Horace when she came out.

"Horace, where are you?" she called for him but heard no reply.

Not being able to find Horace, Clara was a little flustered and went to the balcony to take a look, and unexpectedly found that Horace was alone there, staring at the front blankly, caught up in his own thoughts.

Looking at Horace, Clara's uneasiness also increased a little bit at the same time. She always felt that something she didn't know was happening that would disrupt her and Horace's current life.

After hesitating for a while, Clara stepped forward and stood in front of Horace. Holding his hand, she asked, "What happened? Your hands are so cold. You could get sick out here in the wind."

Horace finally pulled himself out of his thought. He looked at Clara's warm smile in front of him and said, "Nothing happened, just something tricky in the company."

Clara didn't believe it. How could things in the company make him look like this? He had always been comfortable with his work.

"Horace, could you tell me what's wrong? Today, you..."

Clara was interrupted by Horace before she could finish her words, "It's really nothing. Let's have dinner and see if your cooking skills have improved…"

Seeing Horace regaining his previous expression, Clara did not continue to ask any more questions.

In the next few days, Clara's life returned to its previous pace. She was not a public figure after all, and the public's attention on her soon evaporated, and she was happy about that.

What was strange was that since the last time she saw Ashlee in the restaurant, there had not been any news about her at all in the past few days. Where had she been?

This was so uncharacteristic of her. According to her personality, she should have come to the office to make a scene with Darren. But Clara didn't have too much mind to think about affairs about her. She was glad Ashlee was not around to cause trouble for her.

After getting off work, Clara was waiting for the car on the side of the road, when she turned around inadvertently, she met a man in the eye.

The man hurriedly turned his head to the other side, then entered the cafe next to him.

Clara felt a little strange, as she always felt that she had seen him somewhere else. In the past few days, she had been feeling that someone was stalking her. Could the stalker be this man?
