Chapter 29 Living in Claire's House

Shirley was moved by Claire's tolerance. She admitted that she was selfish on this matter!

Shirley's eyes were red. She held Claire's wrist tightly and said, "I'm sorry... It's my fault. If it weren't for
me and your father, you would have lived a happier life now, wouldn't you? Claire, forgive me for being
too selfish. I only care about my own business. "

She had once been obsessed with a relationship, and she had paid for it. She had even abandoned
everything she had and chosen Nathan regardless of the consequences. But the result was not
satisfactory, and now she still did not want to give up. As long as Nathan was still alive, she believed
that she could win his heart back!

Claire knew a little about Shirley's difficulties. Unwilling to continue this topic, Claire took over Shirley
from Henry's hand and supported her towards the sofa. This time, Henry boldly followed them and sat
down.

It was very embarrassing for him when the sofa broke last time, so he ordered people to send the sofa
with the best quality, both the feel and the texture. Even though Claire had saved several months
'salary, she could not afford it. If she knew it, she would be furious again?

While they were talking, it rained heavily outside the door. The atmosphere suddenly became much
quieter.

Just when the two were silent, Shirley suddenly spoke up, "It seems that the rain won't stop soon. If
you go back, you will get wet. How about staying here for a night? Although there's a little shabby, it's
okay to sleep for one night. Of course, if you don't mind. "

Obviously, she was talking to Henry. Claire had been used to living in such an environment for a long
time, the one who is not used to it is Henry. At first, Claire wanted to say that Shirley was confused, but
unexpectedly, Henry nodded and agreed.



Under the surprised gaze of Claire, Henry agreed gladly, "Okay, I'm also worried about how to go back
later. Since you said so, I won't be so polite. Besides, Claire is here. How can I leave? Do you think so,
Claire? "

As Henry spoke, he glanced at Claire. Obviously, he shifted the blame to Claire. Claire didn't know
what was on Henry's mind at all. She could only nod awkwardly and rolled her eyes behind his back.

After getting the consent of Henry, Shirley turned around to tidy up the small room. Since Claire went
out to work, the family had never been so lively, and the easy-going attitude of Henry made Shirley grin
from ear to ear.

After Shirley went back to her room, Claire suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed Henry's sleeve
and whispered, "What's your plan? The matter between us has nothing to do with my mother. As I said,
Molly's matter really has nothing to do with me. It doesn't matter if you want to take revenge on me, but
you can't get my mother involved in it. Do you understand? "

While speaking, she pinched Henry's hand a little hard.

After Shirley left, Henry suddenly changed into another person. He pinched Claire's chin and said with
a faint smile, "Woman, when do you think you have the right to talk to me like this? Don't forget who
you are. "

Hearing what Henry said, Claire had no room to refute. What was wrong with this man? Sometimes he
was so gentle to her that she was addicted to him, but sometimes he was like a devil that completely
destroyed her last chance.

Just as Claire was lost in various fancies and conjectures, Henry suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I know you didn't do anything to Molly, so you don't
need to feel guilty. I'll find a chance to clarify it. After all, you are my woman. If anyone knows it, it will
be bad for both of us."



Although she didn't understand why Henry was willing to believe her, Claire was moved. Except for
Bonnie, no one was willing to believe that she was innocent. The feeling of confusion and frustration,
until now, Claire still felt that she could not forget!

But now when he heard that I trusted you, Claire definitely felt a little sad. Henry would never know how
comforting his seemingly unintentional words would be to Claire! Trust seemed to be meaningless, but
in fact, it was more precious than anything else.

"Claire, come in and help me!"

Just as Claire was about to say something to thank her, Shirley's voice suddenly came out of the room,
breaking the tense atmosphere.

At night, Shirley chose to sleep in a small room and gave the big room to Claire and Henry. At first,
Claire refused, but Shirley didn't want Claire to leave Henry. Claire had no choice but to nod in
agreement.

Perhaps it was because she had been stimulated too much during the day that Claire was not sleepy at
all. After hesitating for a while, she stood up from the bed and walked to the window. She opened the
window a little and quietly looked out at the rain.

As soon as Henry came back from his car, he opened the door and saw Claire's back. Somehow, he
felt she was a little lonely. Deep in his heart, Henry felt as if something had knocked on his heart. His
apple bobbed slightly and he closed the door carefully. Then he walked to the back of Claire without
being noticed. He stretched out his hand and held her directly into his arms. "Why don't you sleep yet?"

Although she was small, she was stubborn. If Aaron hadn't told him the truth, Henry wouldn't have
known how long he would have misunderstood this innocent woman.



When she explained to him, her eyes were full of eagerness and expectation, which had become the
most deadly weapon. At this moment, it was mercilessly stabbing Henry's heart that had been frozen
for many years.

All of a sudden, Henry felt the back of his hand cold. When he faced Claire, he found that she was
crying with tears in her eyes, but she didn't make any sound.

When Henry was about to ask, Claire said, "I can't fall asleep. All I'm thinking about is what you said
just now. Henry, do you know how much it means to me to have your trust in me? I thought... Only my
mother and Bonnie can trust me in this world. You know what? I always think that we live in two
different worlds, but I don't know why, I seem to... I start to fall in love with you, Henry. What do you
think I should do? "

She knew clearly that it was impossible for her to be together with Henry. As a woman from an ordinary
family, she could not step into the world of the rich. However, she did not know how to restrain her
heart and kept getting close to Henry.

It was out of Henry's expectation that Claire would confess everything. He always thought that Claire
just wanted to fulfill her obligation, protect her family and get a generous compensation. But now it
seemed to be beyond his imagination!

Henry was not a sentimental person. After frivolously wiping away the tears of Claire, he ruthlessly told
her the truth, "No one stops you from liking me. After all... There are so many people who like me, and
you, Claire, are just one of them. Well, come and have a rest. I can't fall asleep without you. "

Although his words were hurtful, they were reasonable.

Forcing a smile, Claire lay down on the hard wooden bed and found herself a step. "I see... I have to go
to work tomorrow. Go to bed early. "



In Henry's mind, she was just a tool that could help him sleep. If she didn't give off the faint smell of
herbs one day, would Henry kick her away? Of course, Claire didn't dare to ask such a question. She
just chose to bury it in her heart silently.

Henry sat down, then there was a slight depression at the foot of the bed. After finding a comfortable
posture, Henry pulled Claire into his arms with his big hand and promised, "As for what happened at
the dinner party that day, you just take it as a warning. I will deal with the rest."

Now that the Mu Family was able to do such a thing, it meant that they had a little mental preparation.
Henry's bottom line was not something that anyone could easily reach. Once he was irritated, he would
definitely make them pay the price! This was not only to help Claire get back at her, but also for the
reputation of the Gu Family.

Henry had always been a decisive man. He would never allow anything to go wrong in details this time!

As time went by, Claire gradually fell asleep. But Claire didn't know that Shirley gave her a good night's
dream by her own injury.
