Breaking news

Clara woke up and noticed that her waist was being hugged by a strong arm. Knowing it was him, she remained in that position, wishing it wouldn't end up being another dream. She wished she could move closer and place her head on his chest so that she could listen to his heartbeat.

But she wouldn't dare, she couldn't feel her lower part, her upper parts were in serious pain, all thanks to a fierce beast. He must have been very exhausted too. That must be the reason that I was still in bed unlike before. He would always leave when he was satisfied.

But did he intentionally put his arms around her ? That shouldn't be the case,it must be a mistake.

tenderness and concern coming from a heartless man, even if it appears to be genuine , shouldn't be Taken to heart. She is not stupid to believe it , this charade he is putting up this morning.

Although she may be cowardly or self-abusive, she was not stupid enough to belittle herself. What she wants is to leave him and go back to her little world where she won't be deceived by anyone.

After staring at him for a while, she inhaled deeply, raised her hands towards his neck. On the wall her shadow was like a ghost haunting its prey.

Xavier, who was almost asleep, felt a hand around his neck. In no time. The hand tightened to the extent that he found it hard to breathe, he opened his eyes and saw her small hands trying to strangle him.

"What are you doing ? "He struggled to say .

" I want to strangle her before she can kill you ". Even after hearing him speak, Clara was not ready to stop. Instead, she moved on top of him and her actions became very aggressive, as if she really wanted to kill him. She appeared to be under a spell or being possessed by an evil spirit.

Xavier forcefully grabbed her wrists and yanked them open. He proceeded to pin her under him and yelled " only a crazy person like you would dare do this to me ".

Letting her go, he got up, put on his bathrope and furiously walked out of the room, not even turning to look at the woman. He almost broke her hand. Immediately he left, Clara, who seemed to be possessed earlier, slowly came back to her senses, her eyes were more relaxed, she quietly went to the quilt trembling all over.

'Hope this is enough to end his doubts ? I'm running out of ideas already ' she hissed. 'Why do I feel that his words earlier meant something else ?'

She was worried, really worried. God knows how much courage she needed to do that for him.

"Go in and attend to her, make sure she doesn't do anything stupid" she heard, him talking to someone .She paid close attention to his footsteps as he walked down the stairs until they disappeared.

Not long her nurse Ella, ran in looking terrified as if Clara will do something,if she is not around her, the poor nurse never expected her master to touch a mentally ill patient, but he surprised them all last night.

The next day Clara was insisting on going out, saying that she was bored staying indoors all this while. Her nurse had no other choice but to accompany her.

Why will the boss remove all the cameras and he even promise to allow her to go wherever she wants, forgetting that she is abnormal and won't be able to compensate him if something goes wrong?

They arrived at a public park but the moment she got out of the car, people started giving her strange looks. Some of them were even bold enough to point at her while looking at their phones.

" Is it her ?"

" But she does not look like her. "

Because of the whispers from the passers-by, she stopped and looked at the big screen on the road and what she saw shocked her.

Photos of her doing psychotherapy were being displayed on the large screen of a billboard. In the tenth photo, she and Alex were conducting their last therapy and under it were all the files containing records of her past visit to the psychologist with a short note, saying that she was being locked up in a seaside Villa because of her condition.

She went pale, her face white as snow, she clenched her fingers in anger as her nails dug into her palm, but she could hardly feel the pain.

How did these photos and files get leaked ? when she met Alex that day she asked him to burn the files. He refused but promised to keep them safe. How come everything was out in the open?

" Ma'am I think we should leave this place. " Ella said, scared that she would have another break down after seeing all this, " go back to the Villa !" Ella ordered the driver however Clara suddenly asked him to take them to the clinic instead.

No breakdown,no noise. She was perfectly calm , so calm that she made both Ella and the driver uneasy.

" Yes. ma'am " the driver replied before starting the car, it turned out that the world technology was very bad. In just a minute it can send a message all over the world like some virus.

Inside the car, Ella used a dark glass and face mask to disguise Clara. She allowed her. All she wanted at the moment was to see Alex. She needs to know what is going on. Can't she trust anyone again?

****

the driver suddenly stepped on the break pads , startling the two ladies.

"What happened? " Clara asked, already panicking.

"Madam, I think I hit someone " the driver said with a pale face. He turned to Ella to help him pass the message , thinking that a mentally ill woman wouldn't be able to understand him .

" Let go and check on the person,, ma'am please stay inside " Ella said and she and the driver went out. Clara also wanted to join them, but when she held the door handle, a hand started hitting the glass from outside and then a pale face appeared .

Clara was startled but her expression turned to that of surprise. What a coincidence..

She hurriedly opened the door and allowed the person in. When Glory got in, she watched two men in Black heading towards the opposite direction and let out a sigh of relief.

" Clara, now I'm certain we were sisters in our previous lives" she said happily.

Clara didn't reply. She was focused on the two men in Black still looking for her. She turned to her friend and asked " how come, any time we run into each other you always seem to be shooting a big Hollywood movie?" She's always running, "are you hurt ?" She asked. concerned.

" It's nothing is fine," Glory replied before staring at Clara as if she just remembered something and said " how can God be so cruel, who is bored enough to spread such a rumor about you? "

Early in the morning, the news that Rey's group President's wife had been diagnosed with mental illness became a hot search online around the city. The pictures of her friend were all over the media section but the pictures of her husband were blurry, his face was never displayed.

It seems he has a high status in the country. His pictures were never taken by any news agency. Even when they did it, only his back profile,side profile or they blurred his face. She thought that Clara's husband was just a small business man. She never knew that he was some one even the media couldn't offend.

" I don't know who that person is and how he or she got those pictures , but whatever you saw was the truth " Clara replied. She felt it was better to inform her friend herself.

" What? You mean that you are pretending to be mentally ill because of him? " Glory asked with her eyes widened in disbelief. Clara explained everything to her , believing that her friend wouldn't betray her.

"If he is put under pressure from the public, he might be forced to let me go. No man will want a crazy wife".

" But this is unfair to you, he was so in love with you, how did he change so soon ? That's something I hate about men. They are all the same." Glory was very furious after hearing her friend's story.

"Love ?" Have we ever been in love?

The only time she felt close to him was last night.

" It's nothing serious, I just want to get a divorce from him no matter what" Clara didn't want to go into detail about her relationship with her husband.

" That crazy man must have done something to you for you to be like this, but don't worry, you still have me ", Glory consoled her friend.

Soon Ella and the driver came back, but seeing a stranger with their madam, they both took a defensive stand.

" Who are you and what are you doing with our madam " they both asked.

" Isn't it me you are looking for ? Am I just passing my gratitude to your madam " Glory replied.

"Lier! , you want to scam us " Ella retorted.

" No, I just made a new friend with your madam, thinking that they wouldn't believe her. She put her hands around Clara and they both smiled at each other. "See that ?" Your boss is my new friend.

The latter were surprised if it is possible to make friends with a crazy person.

Since the woman is not blackmailing them, the driver and Ella decide to leave it be, and the madam seems to even like her new friend.

If not,if the boss finds out that they were involved in an accident, they will be sent to the underground world before their time.
