Chapter 724 - Ben and Clara(I) (1/2)
Ben frowned deeper and asked, ”What do you mean by she is missing?”
”I dropped Clara outside your house yesterday so how is that possible? I left after making sure that she entered the mansion.” Sam added.
”When I came back yesterday, Clara was nowhere to be seen and—”
Grabbing Philip's collar, Ben shouted, ”What the hell did you do Philip? Where is Clara?”
”Ben—” Sam stopped when Philip gestured him not to come over.
”Look Ben, I know you are mad but listen to me okay? It's more important to find Clara right now. We can talk about this later. Please Ben, Clara is more important.”
”Important? If she is so important to you then why the f.u.c.k are you cheating on her? I swear on God Philip that if I find out you have anything to do with—”
Cutting him off, Philip said, ”I swear Ben, I would never harm Clara. She is a very good friend of mine and—”
”Friend? She is your wife, you jerk.” Ben shouted.
”Mr Norway is right, brother Ben.” Walking towards them, Guang added, ”Clara Lafit is his friend, only friend.”
”What do you mean Guang?” Sam asked.
”Clara Latif and Mr Norway never got married.” Guang added.
Ben widened his eyes in shock and frowned, ”What?”
”Are you sure Guang?”
Guang nodded his head and sighed, ”Yes brother Sam, I am sure.”
”Will you please let go off my collar so that we can have a decent conversation like a.d.u.l.ts?” Philip asked.
Letting go off his collar, Ben asked, ”Is that true?”
Sitting on the couch, Philip massaged his forehead and said, ”Yes, it's true that Clara and I never got married.”
”So whatever you both had been doing, the anniversary celebration and everything was fake?” Sam asked.
Philip sighed and nodded his head. Looking at Ben, he smirked, ”Didn't you ever notice that Clara never wore a wedding ring? And if you did, didn't you ever wonder why?”
Ben pursed his lips and frowned deeper. He did notice her empty ring finger but he always ended up ignoring it but who would've thought that she didn't wear one because she wasn't married.
But why did Clara lie to him? Why did she pretend that she was married when she wasn't? Why did she decide to stay with Philip and pretend to be married rather than being with him?
'Why did you do that Clara?' He thought.
”I did ask her to wear one otherwise people would doubt our relationship but she always turned me down.” Philip added.
