Chapter 26: Clara's Disappointment And Anger

Clara walked down the corridor to the elevator carrying a paper bag of food for Nathan's lunch. The woman was escorted by the two bodyguard who was always with her it made her a little uncomfortable because she was always followed wherever she was.

When she arrived at the special elevator for the company owner, Clara immediately entered quietly waiting for the elevator to close after being pressed the button to the 25th floor by a bodyguard named Benny.

'If I continue to be under guard like this, I won't be able to act freely to complete my missions. This is troublesome, even Nathan's possessiveness can be a hindrance to me,' she thought restlessly.

Ting ...

The elevator door opened. Clara immediately got out and walked down the white corridor. Occasionally she smiled when she accidentally met an employee who greeted her as Nathan's wife.

"Honey," Nathan greeted as he came out of his study. He walked up to Clara with a worried look. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine because it wasn't a fatal accident," Clara replied with a smile. She turned her gaze to the paper bag she was carrying. "I brought you lunch. You haven't had lunch yet, have you?"

"Yes, of course. because I'm going to have lunch with you."

Nathan immediately invited Clara to enter his study while the bodyguards waited outside.

Arriving at the metallic workspace equipped with modern and luxurious furniture, Nathan and Clara sat on a bluish-gray sofa, starting their lunch activity.

Nathan ate Clara's Apple Pie, but suddenly his brows furrowed and he ate slowly as if thinking.

"Why?" asked Clara.

"Eh, it feels a little different," Nathan replied. "Didn't you make it?" he asked.

"Uhh..."Clara is a little confused because the taste of her cooking with the late Clara's is different. "I... I made it. I used a new recipe and I thought you'd like it. Don't you like it?"

"Emm... I like it. I've always liked your cooking." Nathan smiled reassuringly, then went back to eating casually.

Clara heaved a sigh of relief, then immediately joined the meal because she was getting hungry. Occasionally she glanced at Nathan who looked relaxed, reminding her of her plan to buy a car earlier.

"Honey," she called.

"Yes?" said Nathan.

"Earlier, the motorcyclist who was involved in an accident with me turned out to be a mechanic who used to repair cars that had been in an accident," said Clara, slowly starting to tell her about the incident.

"Then?"

"I saw Casey's car over there," Clara said then continued eating her meatloaf.

"Maybe the car will be fixed," Nathan said casually.

"Don't you feel something is strange?" asked Clara.

"You mean?"

"I mean, shouldn't the car be under police investigation to find out the cause of the accident? But why is the car even in the repair shop and will be repaired even after being sold? To me that is a strange thing…why is the car that was supposed to be taken care of by the police is there and it's been sold and changed owners several times?" Clara wondered nervously.

Nathan took a deep breath, turned to eat Clara's toter toct as he said, "Maybe the car has been investigated...You don't need to be confused and wondering about this because it's none of our business."

Clara looked disappointedly at Nathan who reacted not the way she had imagined. But she had to get her husband to help her investigate the car.

"Honey, but I told the repair shop owner that you would buy the car before it was overhauled or repaired," she said.

Suddenly Nathan turned to look at Clara in surprise. "What, you asked me to buy it?"

"Yeah ... I think by being bought by us, we can do another investigation to find out what caused Casey's accident," Clara explained seriously.

Nathan smiled slightly, then shook his head in surprise. "Honey, we don't have to bother about this...Let Casey's family take care of this, not us."

"And how can I be sure they can handle all this when they're selling the car anyway?" asked Clara in surprise, not expecting Nathan to think of all this as such a trivial matter.

Nathan sighed, looking at Clara who looked angry. "Honey. Then let this matter be taken care of by the police after we managed to buy the car and hand it over to the police. Or we leave this matter to Michael because he is Casey's lover," he said.

"No, we will investigate this case," said Clara.

"But I can't. I'm having a headache thinking about the poison problem and thinking about the office problem…I have more important things to take care of than Casey's," Nathan said seriously, showing an annoyed expression.

Clara was silent, looking at Nathan in disappointment. Of course, she was disappointed because she stayed as Clara completely to keep Nathan's feelings which didn't matter to her, but now Nathan didn't support her wishes.

"I will buy the car through a trusted person," Nathan said.

"Why not you?" asked Clara.

"Because I'm busy, honey," Nathan replied.

"But it should be you because I'm going to be with you in investigating the accident. I mean... we bought the car and then we handed it over to the police secretly without Casey's family knowing..after that, we go to Los Angeles to find out who sold the car... I've been thinking about this plan for a long time!" Clara explained very seriously, hoping that Nathan would go along with her wish, because with the car now she couldn't trust Oskar or her uncle.

"But I don't have time for that..let all of this be taken care of by my confidant and you don't have to bother thinking about the matter... you just need to..."

"You want me to just stay at home you mean?" Clara asked before Nathan could finish speaking.

"Of course... that's better... I don't want you to be in trouble just for Casey who's even just a new friend to you," Nathan replied with a shrug.

Clara was silent, increasingly disappointed in Nathan who had underestimated Casey, and Casey was who she was now. Ugh, it's like it hurts when someone doesn't consider you important. She stared lazily at the food still on the table, reluctant to continue eating lunch.

"Let my people take care of this," Nathan said.

"You said Casey was just my new friend, but you didn't think she had an accident on her way to our wedding...I didn't expect you to be so dismissive about her, whereas she deserves pity, she deserves help… I feel something unkind is around her, that's why I wanted to investigate about the accident but you… you're too selfish."Clara said disappointedly, then got up and carried her small bag. She immediately walked away from Nathan.

"Honey, where are you going?" asked Nathan.

"That doesn't matter to you!" Clara replied curtly as she walked out of the room. "I need some time alone!"

Nathan took a deep breath, silent, letting Clara pass by. He turned to stare at the food that was still a lot, then leaned his body on the couch's shoulder.

'Oh my God. Why is she so angry? I see more and more of such a big difference from her,' he thought restlessly.

When she was outside the room and even outside the building, Clara turned to look at Benny and Willy who continued to follow her. It made her feel very sick and uncomfortable plus her memory of Nathan's indifference to her request.

"You don't have to escort me!" She cried, then continued walking down the few steps to the courtyard.

Benny and Willy ignored Clara's warning. They continued to follow the master's wife until they almost arrived at the gate of the company building, then stopped her by blocking her.

"Ma'am, you'd better get in the car. I'll take you anywhere because it's my job," said Benny politely.

"I don't care about your job!" said Clara indignantly.

"But, ma'am. Mr. Nathan will be very angry if I do not fulfill my duty to continue to look after you."

"Fuck it, I don't care about Nathan's anger. I don't need to be guarded by you guys!" Clara pushed Benny out of front of her then she immediately walked out the gate.

"Ma'am ... ma'am ... let me escort you!"

Willy and Benny continued to follow Clara.

"Stop!" Clara exclaimed with a sharp look.

Benny and Willy also stopped, not daring to fight Clara who was already very angry with them. They let their employer's wife leave the office by taking a taxi that happened to be passing by at the time.. Hem, it looks like they will get the result of all this, namely being scolded by Nathan.
