131 131. Looking for an Escape

Clara didn’t mean to make it difficult for Samuel. However, in her mind, there were still a thousand questions about the man she knew was only a janitor. She wanted an explanation.

The real explanation had nothing to do with his everyday life. Unfortunately, Clara was still curious.

Therefore, Clara was determined to stay in the Montgomery family’s mansion until she got answers to all the mysteries about the janitor’s identity.

At first, she thought that after becoming a janitor, Samuel became a driver for a rich family because he was driving a luxury car. Because of that, Clara immediately forced a taxi to follow his car.

However, the reality was completely different. The man she thought was poor was a person living in the luxurious mansion she was currently in.

“So you’ve never done it before?” Sofia asked, breaking Clara’s reverie.

“Having sex?” Clara asked, confirming Sofia’s question, making the young girl nod, grimacing awkwardly. “Not yet. We’ve only just kissed,” Clara added reassuringly.

Sofia, who was suddenly clumsy, immediately took the last piece of apple pie with no enthusiasm at all. The words Clara had just said made her lose her appetite. She felt out of place and shouldn’t be between her brother and the woman.

“Sofia! Don’t get me wrong. I don’t know this woman!” replied Samuel pitifully. He felt unfairly treated and framed by Clara.

.....

Clara just grinned at Samuel. She couldn’t help it. Finding Samuel tonight was the best escape she could find. She needed a diversion to make herself, forget the sadness.

Clara didn’t want to go home. She didn’t want to accept the fact that she wasn’t Linda’s biological child. She didn’t want to remember that she was a child of a con who tried to destroy the happiness of the Decker family.

She also didn’t want to accept the fact that she was a barren woman. She was not willing to accept the fact that her fiancé had a child with another woman. She didn’t want to remember the heartbreaking conversation between Lea and Dave.

She just wanted to get out of her cage. She wanted to be just ‘Clara’. An ordinary human being who also wanted to live a normal and happy life without any burden on her shoulders. She just wanted to live as a doctor in the morning and have fun at night.

Finding Samuel was a blessing for her. Samuel promised all the things she wanted right now. Even if it’s just for tonight, she’s willing. ‘The man’ was a better escape than drinking her problem away like last time.

“Then, I will immediately go to my room and close the door tightly so you two can … enjoy some time together,” Sofia asked doubtfully. “Or, maybe ... going all the way?”

Sofia scratched her head. She then took a carton of milk from the fridge and quickly left the dining room. She didn’t want to disturb lovebirds. At least, that’s what she thought at the moment.

As Sofia left, silence fell in the dining room. Samuel didn’t want to look at Clara at all, which made Sofia misunderstand him. Clara deliberately made his sister misunderstand that the two of them, who did not know each other, were lovers.

“Are you angry?” Clara asked then, trying to break the silence.

“What? You ask why I’m angry?” asked Samuel, angrily. No, angry was an understatement. “Why are you here? Are you stalking me? What do you want?”

Clara felt that now Samuel would not forgive her. However, she didn’t care. “I just want to apologize for slapping you that time. After all, you were innocent. I was the one at fault.”

Samuel hissed. He still remembered how Clara pulled him closer, kissed him first, and swept him away in hot kisses. When he realized it, the woman slapped him hard. Saying that he had committed sexual harassment.

Samuel snorted. “No problem! You were drunk and a little crazy I guess. No problem!” said Samuel without a smile on his face at all. “Just that? Finished?” he asked again. “When you’re done, you may leave. I haven’t locked the front door yet.”

“I ... I also want to pay off the taxi fare that you paid at that time,” Clara answered again.

Samuel then looked at Clara with a sharp gaze. His bright green eyes seemed to have turned into a sharp jade sword that had been drawn to the side of her neck.

“Hi, Miss! Do you think I’m the kind of person who’s going to charge you the fifty bucks I paid for your taxi fare?” asked Samuel while spreading his arms, forcing Clara to see all the luxury around them.

“Sorry, I thought you were a janitor. I think fifty dollars would have been worth a lot to you,” Clara answered awkwardly. She swallowed hard.

“I’m not a janitor. At that time, something happened that forced me to do it. Don’t spill it to other people,” Samuel threatened with bulging eyes.

Supposedly, Samuel at this time looked scary. Everyone would say that his face was so scary when he was angry. However, Clara was used to seeing her fierce father. Samuel’s sharp gaze at this time was nothing compared to her father’s piercing eyes which always implied hatred towards her.

Clara nodded. She smiled knowingly. “I will keep your secret. So, can I stay here?” asked Clara with great enthusiasm.

“Oh, so you don’t want to leave, do you? That’s why you lied to my sister? You lied about our relationship,” Samuel asked again, annoyed. He didn’t want to be rude to women. But, again Clara was very annoying.

“I’m not lying, right? I’m just saying that we only do French Kisses!” Clara argued. Her eyes stared at Samuel, protesting at being called a liar.

“Okay,” Samuel muttered then. The green-eyed man then looked at Clara with a slightly lustful look. The man drew closer to Clara and seemed to think Clara was delicious food for a predator like him.

Samuel’s hands took Clara’s flawless face, brushed her smooth cheeks, then went down to her chin. He pinched her slender, shapely chin, and lifted it so their faces were facing each other.

“So, you intend to spend the night here, so we can enjoy the night together? Are you going to crawl into my bed? Spread your legs for me? Going all the way?”
