No Strings Attached

When she heared this, Katherine's tears started to flow again.

"How much pain Clara must be in. She fought so hard to protect her baby, but she was told it didn't make it. She must be going out of her mind."

"She's doing well now. She's come through it. Clara's stronger than we thought."Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Brodie glanced at the door, then continued, "How's Grandpa? What exactly happened to him?”

A hint of hatred flickered in Katherine's eyes. "Officially, he was bitten by a dog, which carried a virus. I suspect it's all Connor's doing. He wants to seize control of the family's power. I'll make him pay for this." "Mom, just keep playing dumb. That's the only way Connor won't suspect you. Leave the rest to me and my brother. We'll rescue Grandpa."

After analyzing the current situation for a bit longer, Brodie quietly returned to his bedroom. Back in his room, he used a secretive method to send a message to lan.

lan, far abroad, couldn't help but tear up when he saw the message. His long, slender hands clenched into fists.

A year later, Clara became a top-tier lawyer whom no one dared to mess with, with retainer fees starting in the millions.

Two years later, Clara took her cases international, becoming the only lawyer knowledgeable in the laws of various countries and was acclaimed as the top orator in the international legal world.

After work, Clara received a call from Della, who was now three years old and had used her smartwatch to call.

As soon as Clara answered, Della's childish voice came through. "It's my birthday today. Don't forget, okay?"

This adorable voice made all of Clara's tiredness vanish. She smiled and said, "I got off work early. I'm on my way to your birthday party now."

"That's great. I'll see you soon. Orin, Roy and Bran are coming too. I'm so happy."

Hearing that so many kids would be there, Clara felt a peculiar sensation. Ever since she lost her child, she paid extra attention to kids. She often visited Elle's three children in Riddleton.

Clara smiled and said, "I'll be there in fifteen minutes. You play with them for a bit."

"Okay, I'll share my birthday presents with them."

Hanging up, Della ran into her room on her tiny legs. She took out a big box of candy from her bedside table. Sitting on the front steps, she waited for her friends to arrive. S

As soon as Anders' car pulled up, Della ran over like a fluttering butterfly.

Orin got out of the car. Today, he was dressed in a white suit and a red bow tie. When Della saw him, her eyes went wide.

With her mouth agape, she exclaimed, "Wow, Orin, you look so cool. Can I marry you when I grow up?"

Orin blushed, walked over to Della, took her small hand, and smilingly said, "Happy birthday, Della."

Everyone laughed at this. Roger

immediately teased with a laugh et

"My daughter has her eyes on your son. Make sure to raise a good son-in-law for me."

Anders responded with a laugh, "He'll be bsolutely top-notch."

The group laughed and walked inside, except for Roy who stood at the entrance, looking outside.

Elle came over and took his little hand. "Honey, let's go inside."

Roy looked up at Elle with his bright, sparkling eyes. "Mom, I want to wait for Aunt Clara to go in together."
