Chapter 121: Clara met Laurent's mother
“Is he with a woman already?" Hannah threw the question at Mrs. Smiths with a smooth voice, like a whisper.Mrs. Smith laughed softly, amused at how serious Hannah was taking the discussion.“I have no idea but I'm going to ask him.” Mrs. Smith mimicked her, whispering back.Hannah fakes a frown, her face rumpling slightly and she leaned her back on the chair but she he suddenly leans in, a small suspicious smile tucking on her lips like one who had a quick discovery.“You can call him right now and maybe he can come here too so we have a quick genotypic test." She said,Mrs. Smith almost burst into laughter. Hannah is really desperate to find her daughter a man. So eager to have a grandkid.***Mrs. Smith and Hannah were walking out along the long corridor of the hospital. Mrs. Smith couldn't help but laugh at every single word the woman was saying. She is hilarious and accommodative.The gentle evening breeze danced their gown backward gently.Meanwhile, Laurent drove Clara to the h
Chapter 120: The search for Hannah.
It was Clara who just called Laurent, informing him that her grandmother had gone missing.In a rush, he jumped into the car and drove off. A few minutes later, he cut off the engine at Hannah's residence and rushed out of the car to see Clara also coming out, worry etching all over her face.Laurent met her. “Where is she? Has anyone around seen her?!" He asked, looking concerned.Clara took a sharp breath, tired and frustrated. He rubbed her hand on her temple.“Listen Clara. She's fine wherever she is. We're going to find her. Okay?" Clara nodded gently.“Let's ask those who are around.” He said and walked to a woman who was washing her car outside her house.The woman seeing them approaching her direction straightened up and put off the washer.Laurent forced a smile and began politely “Good evening ma. We're sorry to disturb you but have you seen the woman that lives in that house today? He asked, pointing in the direction of Hannah's building.The woman followed the line of his
Chapter 119: Hannah and Mrs. smith encounter.
The lobby of the hospital was filled with hums from clients who had come to visit their wards. On the wall is a flat screen which was displaying with people barely glancing at it.Laurent entered the hospital with Mrs. Smith. Laurent left Mrs. Smith to talk to the staff members behind the desk– the receptionist.He returned to her and said. “Let's go straight down. We're to meet with one doctor Andrew.They went in the direction, passing different doors which looked the same. Only the tag name on the door makes the difference.They stood at the door of Dr. Andrew and then Laurent's phone rang. Staring at the screen, he took a sharp breath.“Mum, you should go ahead. I'll catch you. I need to pick this.” He said politely and walked out.Mrs. Smith nodded gently. “Alright. I'll be expecting you.” she said, smiling then she twisted the door knob and entered the room.Inside of the Dr. Andrews office was sparkling neat. The Doctor is forty years old and the evidence of his maturity could
Chapter 118: Is he stone hearted?
Clara couldn't answer the question. Silence stretched thin between them. It looks like she just asked a very dumb question. Even Laurent's response was another thing– he looks clueless and maybe heartless– like a man without any feelings but how could she know about the betrayals from the ones he thought he loved and trusted.If actually Laura could find out. Then she'll have to prove herself worthy.Laurent's eyes locked on her after he asked the question.“What do you mean by that?" Laurent's voice came again, low, calm but demanding.She blinked and shook her head gently. “No..it's nothing.” She wanted to ignite the car but Laurent's voice stopped her.“I'll be taking a Taxi.” He simply said.Clara paused and looked at him, her face a mask of twist, expressing confusion.“But I'm driving–”“I appreciate it Clara. I just think it's better to sort myself out. Moreover, that's my car over there.” He pointed to the car at the front. Clara was lost. Her heart tightened. Laurent sounded
Chapter 117: Clara met jenny
A smug smile tucked on Lax's lips as Jenny speaks about how powerful the stone family is. He was basking in pride, under the weight of his family's influence and power.As Jenny's lips kept spilling the words, her voice was shaking with fear.“.. Please let him be.. please..” Laurent took a shallow breath and dropped his fist to his side.He glared into his eyes, steely. "You're lucky she pleaded on your behalf and don't think I'm sparing you because of your family.” He snarled, anger still simmering beneath his voice even the smirk on Lax angered him the most.Lax licked his broken lips and straightened up, the smirk still tugging on his lips. He dusted the surface of his suit as if brushing off his bruised pride.“You're the lucky one here dude but I'm not going to spare you for this. You'll pay.” Laurent didn't respond. He simply grabbed Jenny's arm gently and they started walking out of the room.The police wanted to act but Lax simply waved him to let them be.He laughed softly
Chapter 116: Stones
Lax burst into a mockery laughter that echoed all over.He pointed a finger at himself. “I? Lax stone? Knee?" He scoffed after like Laurent just bluffed.His voice boomed with pride, preceded by his staggering wealth and family influence.“You really don't know who you're dealing with man. I'm giving you the chance to run and never come back. That's the only way to settle this because I'm not going to let you settle anywhere in this city.”Laurent laughed softly, mockingly and then his expression stiffened to something dark as if Lax had just touch a wrong nerve.He stepped closer to him, each steps calculated and deliberate.“You think because of your wealth or fame you can step on people anyhow and go away with it? You think the lower class don't have the nerve to fight back?! And because of that you'll keep playing with their right?!!”Lax closed the distance between them, glaring back into eyes. He scoffed. “And who do you really thinking you are? A human right activists?!! Fight
