After her rebirth

Brynn was furious.

She had been pampered by others since she was a child and had never encountered anyone like Desmond.

Desmond wasn't exactly dismissive of her.

He actually left her alone here for his ex-girlfriend without any explanation.

This made her feel extremely humiliated.

"Desmond, just you wait."

Brynn stomped off in her high heels, fuming.

On the other side, Desmond was extremely worried about Clara. He carried Clara to

the underground garage, placed her in his car, and asked gently, "Clara, are you okay?"

Clara was very weak, but she looked at Desmond with a smile in her eyes.

She didn't say anything, but her expression made Desmond's heart ache.

Desmond held her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, we'll be at the hospital soon."

Desmond drove quickly, making calls to the hospital to prepare while driving. Sitting in the back seat, Clara opened her eyes and looked at the man who was so worried about her, a slight smile on her lips.

Desmond still had feelings for her.

So, who was that woman just now?

Was she someone the Boleyn family had arranged for Desmond?

But no matter what, she had won this battle today, and she had won beautifully.

Feeling smug, Clara closed her eyes again.

Physically, she was indeed feeling a bit unwell. Earlier, not knowing the truth, she had almost been driven mad by Desmond.

Her only leverage now was Desmond. If even he abandoned her, how could she fight against Katniss?

Thinking of this, Clara's heart surged with hatred.

The reason she had ended up in such a passive position must be because Katniss was sabotaging her.

Although she didn't know exactly what Katniss had done, she was convinced of it.

When they arrived at the hospital, a group of medical staff was waiting at the emergency entrance.

Desmond placed Clara on a stretcher and comforted her, "It's okay, Clara, it's okay."

To those who didn't know the situation, it looked like Clara had been seriously injured. After a series of examinations by the doctors, Clara slowly regained consciousness. The doctor said, "Based on the current situation, Clara is not in any serious danger, but the reports will take some time. She can stay in the hospital for observation."

Desmond sat by the bedside, looking at Clara with deep affection, "You know your health isn't good, why did you go to such a crowded place? What if you got hurt?"

Clara lowered her eyes, "I just wanted to visit the places we used to go..."

She looked up at Desmond, expressing her emotions, "I really miss you and can't bear to be without you. Desmond, let's not be apart, okay?"

Desmond neither refused nor agreed.

He was also in a difficult position.

He had originally thought he could stay away from Clara, but today, seeing Clara almost faint, he realized that his feelings for her were not so easily severed.

Both of them fell silent.

At that moment, Desmond's phone rang.

He took it out of his pocket and frowned deeply.

"What's wrong?" Clara asked when Desmond hesitated to answer the call.

Desmond gave a faint smile and stood up, "I'll take this call outside." Clara said nothing.

After Desmond left the room, she fell into deep thought, her face showing some

unease.

The call must be from someone in the Boleyn family.

Desmond had left Brynn behind to bring her to the hospital. That young lady didn't seem like a kind person and would definitely complain to her parents.

Clara knew that Desmond would have to face a storm.

She felt a bit heartbroken but knew she couldn't help him.

Desmond hid in the hospital's fire escape to take the call, a place where few people usually came.

He took a deep breath and answered the call.

Before Desmond could speak, Gabriel started cursing.

After a full minute of cursing, Gabriel finally paused.

Gabriel questioned angrily, "What, cat got your tongue?"noveldrama

Desmond replied helplessly, "Dad, let's talk about this when I get back."

Gabriel was furious, "Get back? You still want to come back? Desmond, you've messed

up a good thing, and you still have the nerve to come back? I'm telling you, don't even

think about it. You useless thing, how could you mess this up?"

"All you do is cause trouble. How did I end up with a son like you?"

"If I had known you would turn out like this, I would have drowned you at birth."

"I've been smart all my life, and I ended up with a stupid son like you. Do you know what kind of family the Elise family is? And you left Brynn alone, who do you think you are?"

Desmond frowned deeply. Was this still the father who had loved him since he was a child?

How could he be so harsh, just because of a little profit, just because he made a small mistake?

Desmond moved his lips, feeling a bit dissatisfied, "Dad, I'll go apologize to the Elise family. What's done is done, scolding me won't change anything."

Gabriel didn't listen to Desmond at all and just warned, "Fine, because of that bitch Clara, you dare to defy my decision. Let's see who you can protect in the end."

Hearing his father's words, Desmond became worried, "Dad, what are you planning to do?"

There was no response.

"Dad, I beg you, leave Clara alone, she's inno..."

Before Desmond could finish, Gabriel hung up. Desmond knew that in his father's rage,

he might cause trouble for Clara. He was worried and tried calling back to plead, but his calls were directly rejected.

Feeling frustrated, he kept calling, but Gabriel kept hanging up. Finally, he realized he had been blocked by his father.

Desmond's anger surged.

He was furious.

Why was it so hard just to be with the woman he loved?

As the son of the Boleyn family, he felt he would have been better off being born into

an ordinary family, where at least he would have more freedom.

Since childhood, his father had imposed strict demands on him, always making him chase after his accomplished brother.

But some things are innate.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't learn. Why couldn't his father understand?

His father had taken away so many of his interests, and now he wanted to harm the woman he loved.

Desmond, in a fit of rage, smashed his phone to pieces.

No matter what, he was determined to protect Clara this time.

He composed himself, opened the door to the fire escape, and encountered Katniss standing at the entrance.

Desmond felt a sense of shame, as if his embarrassment had been exposed. He glared at her, "Katniss, what are you doing here? How shameless of you to eavesdrop on my call!"

Katniss was speechless.

She had only taken the stairs because the hospital elevator was too crowded, and this route was closer. How could she have known she would run into Desmond?
