Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was not until seven o’clock in the morning when Miranda finally descended from the second floor. She went downstairs together with William.
“Clarence, what are you doing here? Are you nuts?”
Miranda saw cigarette butts littered on the floor, and the living hall was filled with smoke.
She unwittingly froze as she realized Clarence had been staring at her from the couch.
The next moment, Clarence cussed angrily, “Dear, what have you guys been doing up there throughout the night…?”
Clarence rose up. His throat was a little dry.
William looked at Clarence teasingly and said, “Clarence, don’t worry. I didn’t lay a finger on your wife. I slept on the couch last night.”
Miranda was stunned. Originally, she had not been able to react to Clarence’s behavior like this.
Upon hearing William’s words, Miranda responded at once.
She immediately reprimanded him, “We’re not as disgusting as what you think! Do you think everyone is just like you?!
“You even did that to my mother…! William came here because he knew that I was all alone, and thus he worried for my safety. He came here just to protect me.
“Aren’t you conscious about what you’ve done in the hotel?!”
The moment Miranda recalled the incident that happened in the hotel, a disgusted chill ran down her spine.
Meanwhile, Clarence heaved a sigh of relief.
The next moment, Clarence’s expression darkened, and he said, “She’s mine, and she doesn’t need protection from others. Get out!”
Miranda was caught by surprise. She cast a glance at Clarence in shock. It was her first time witnessing his assertiveness after knowing him for such a long time.
This was especially so when he mentioned that sentence, “She’s mine, and she doesn’t need protection from others!”
At that moment, Miranda actually felt a trace of happiness and relief.
In fact, Miranda did not have a deep hatred for Clarence.
It was just that Clarence always acted too much like a wuss.
He did not behave like a man.
The manner which Clarence had displayed just now had slightly changed Miranda’s perception of him.
“What did you say?!” William froze for a moment.
‘How dare a useless son-in-law like him talk to me like that?!’
Clarence did not say much. He simply lifted the fruit knife on the coffee table.
“Three, two…”
“Y-You… Fine!” William cast a vicious glance at Clarence. Then, he slunk away.
‘Clarence’s life is worthless. Mine is much more valuable than his.’
After William slunk out of the villa entrance, Clarence grinned, “Dear, I’ll peel an apple for you.”
“Y-You…” Miranda fell speechless. “I’ll wash up first and then make a trip back later to apologize to Father and Mother. You’re filthy, so you better grab this opportunity to take a shower.”
“Alright.”
Clarence did not have the slightest clue behind Miranda’s abrupt change of attitude toward himself.
All he knew was he felt very happy about it.
Clarence took a shower as fast as possible. Then, he changed into clean clothes.
After about half an hour, Miranda had also finished her makeup. The two of them headed to the Murphy family house.
After an hour, they arrived at their destination.
Belle Murphy, George, Melody, and Kaysen were already there.
“Father, Mother, I’m sorry. I’ve taken Clarence along to offer our apologies to you,” Miranda said remorsefully.
“Forget about it. The matter is over.”
Peony’s attitude had caught Miranda off guard.
‘My mother is not angry at all?
‘Could it be that my family didn’t inform her about yesterday’s incident?
‘The incident about Clarence’s beastly behavior toward her…’
In truth, Armstrong had already told Peony about Clarence. What he had done was only to unblock her blood vessels.
Therefore, Peony was not angry with Clarence.
Of course, this did not imply that Peony would treat Clarence well either. She was simply not angry at him.
“Clarence, don’t take such risks again in the future.
“Your half-baked medical skills would only get people killed,” Peony said coldly.
“Mother, what are you talking about?” Miranda was puzzled.
“Noted, Mother.” Clarence’s eyes sparkled.
Surprisingly, the misunderstanding seemed to have been cleared. His mother-in-law, Peony Wanda had already known what he was up to.
