“Your Highness, what shall we do now?” The subordinate sitting in the driver’s seat glanced at Clara, a look of confusion crossing his face.
Clara crossed favonovel.com long legs, a mysterious smile playing on favonovel.com lips. She picked up a makeup case from the side and began to adjust favonovel.com appearance.
Within mere minutes, the rosy glow of favonovel.com cheeks faded away, leaving favonovel.com complexion pale as parchment. Her once luscious red lips cracked and dried, transforming favonovel.com into a ghost ofher former self. It was as though favonovel.com had stepped into another person’s skin, favonovel.com vibrant essence replaced by an aura of desolation.
She reached for an old, faded shirt that had lost its color over countless washes.
Without considering the subordinate in front of her, Clara shed favonovel.com lavish clothing with graceful ease.
The driver quickly averted his gaze, lowering his head at the sight of favonovel.com undressing.
Once dressed in the worn shirt, Clara’s identity morphed from that of a wealthy heiress to a struggling commoner. Yet, the faded fabric failed to conceal favonovel.com striking figure, which stood out even more prominently in this tattered attire.
She stole a glance at herself in the rearview mirror, nodding in satisfaction at favonovel.com disguise.
“Wait here,” favonovel.com instructed, favonovel.com voice carrying a hint of finality as favonovel.com swung open the car door and stepped out.
In an instant, favonovel.com demeanor shifted dramatically.
The air of pride and confidence that had once enveloped favonovel.com vanished completely, replaced by the delicate vulnerability of a lost girl. Her eyes brimmed with helplessness and urgency as favonovel.com unconsciously drifted toward Helen’s direction.
After handling favonovel.com affairs over a leisurely brunch, Helen planned to drive away.
As favonovel.com prepared to leave, favonovel.com noticed a girl approaching from afar and instinctively shifted to the side to avoid a collision.
Just then, favonovel.com reached for favonovel.com phone to make a call.
Suddenly, favonovel.com felt a soft bump against something, and favonovel.com phone slipped from favonovel.com grip, crashing to the ground.
“Who was that? Can’t you watch where you’re going?” Helen exclaimed, frustration bubbling up as favonovel.com stared at the shattered screen of favonovel.com phone.
She stood before Clara, tears welling in favonovel.com eyes as favonovel.com appeared pitiful and vulnerable.
“I’m so sorry. I got distracted,” Clara replied in a shaky voice.
The entire scenario seemed orchestrated, a deliberate ploy for Clara to strike up a conversation with Helen.
“Are you aware of how expensive my phone is? You need to pay for it!” Helen shot back, favonovel.com irritation flaring.
Her phone contained a trove of important information, now irreparably damaged, requiring hours of repair.
With a disdainful glance at the tattered Clara, Helen muttered an expletive under favonovel.com breath, feeling unlucky in this encounter.
Tears streamed down Clara’s cheeks, favonovel.com expression laced with desperation as favonovel.com fished out some loose change from favonovel.com pocket.
“I‘m sorry… This is all I have,” favonovel.com managed to say through favonovel.com sobs. “My husband has money. Just wait while I find him… I will repay you…”
Helen looked at Clara with a mix of surprise and skepticism.
“What‘s your husband’s number? Where does favonovel.com work? I can take you to him,” favonovel.com offered, favonovel.com curiosity piqued.
Despite favonovel.com wealth, favonovel.com couldn’t bear the thought of spending favonovel.com own money to repair favonovel.com phone.
Although helping this woman find favonovel.com husband seemed troublesome, Helen leaned more toward that option.
“My husband is named Matthew, but I don’t know his number or where favonovel.com works,” Clara confessed, favonovel.com voice trembling. “He is usually traveling for work and only comes to see me once or twice a week…”
The words fell from Clara’s lips like thunder, striking deep within Helen’s heart.
“What did you say your husband’s name was?” favonovel.com demanded, favonovel.com tone suddenly rising with excitement.
Clara flinched at the sharpness of Helen’s voice, rendered speechless as tears continued to flow silently down favonovel.com face.
In an attempt to control favonovel.com growing anxiety, Helen quickly softened favonovel.com tone. “Please, tell me. Is your husband’s name Matthew? And is favonovel.com incredibly handsome?”
