Second Chance: Marrying into Wealth Chapter 81

However, Clara didn't seem to care.

She looked at me with a smug smile, "See, in his eyes, I'm much more valuable than you. To him, you're just cheap and easy to deceive, but to him, I'm high and mighty. That's why he goes out of his way to please me and is so generous.

The key is, you were fooled, but I wasn't. I'm watching his joke, and he doesn't even realize it."

"I don't have your skills!"

I admitted this point.

Before I met Lawrence, I had never been in a relationship. My parents were very strict with me and protected me well, so I was too naive. Faced with Lawrence's sweet words, I fell for it so easily. I admit this.

I can't compare to someone like Clara, who is experienced in love.

Clara probably really thought I was complimenting her. She raised her eyebrows and looked a bit proud, "It's not about skills. But I can see through men better than you. They are all despicable creatures. The more you care about them, the more they think they are charming and the less they care about you.

For example, you, Lawrence thinks you're easy to fool, right? But I'm different. If he wants to be with me, I keep my distance. He has to work hard to reach me and is always afraid of losing me, putting me first in everything, even fearing that I might leave him."

Clara wouldn't think she picked a bad man because she sees through Lawrence's bad nature and doesn't think he's a bad man.

Shouldn't she find Lawrence disgusting?

Anyway, I can't understand her logic.

It's not that I discriminate against mental illness, but Clara's kind of perverted mental illness, which takes pleasure in others' pain, doesn't earn my understanding or sympathy.

I didn't come here today to listen to her say these things.

"So, you guided Lawrence, using breakup-like tactics to warn him that if he didn't get rid of me, you would leave him. Did you also participate in drugging my child?"

I asked.

As I asked, I stared at her, not missing any subtle expressions.

Clara was also steady, her expression didn't change at all, "I said I was sick. What do you want me to say and record as evidence? That won't work."

Clara was still very cautious, not that stupid.

I actually knew it wouldn't be that easy to get anything out of her.

So I changed my approach, "Are you going to continue bragging about your achievements, or tell me why you used such a method to scheme against me?

I don't think we had much interaction. Our first meeting was because of a car accident, right? That car accident wasn't initiated by me. I guess you approached me on purpose, even trying to kill me and my unborn child, right?"

I sneered, as if I had seen through Clara's plot.

But she had good psychological quality and even pretended to be innocent, "What do you mean by approaching you on purpose? It was just a coincidence. And didn't you and your unborn child turn out fine? It's really a pity. Even after all that, you and your child were fine. You're really lucky.

But so what? You're the one who suffered. Lawrence still sides with me. Although I said to compensate you, Lawrence didn't actually take the money. Instead, he comforted me."

"Is that your goal?" I asked coldly.

She knew I understood. That incident was her warning.

Clara raised an eyebrow and looked at me, "This time, you're not being stupid. Yes, it was a warning! Lawrence said he wanted to divorce you and be with me, but he kept stalling and just comforting me.

I'm not a patient person, and he was the one trying to please me, clinging to me, unwilling to let go. How could I waste time waiting for him? So I gave him a warning.

If he can't handle it, I'll break up with him."

When Vance and I investigated Clara and Lawrence, we analyzed and guessed that Lawrence's sudden aggressive move to drug me was likely instigated and even encouraged by Clara.

So, when Clara revealed the truth, I wasn't as agitated or angry as she might have expected.

I looked at her calmly, "You're saying this to provoke me or to see me go crazy. You'll be disappointed. I've already guessed a lot of things. Now, I just wish Lawrence would be sentenced to death immediately. There's no love left, so there's no emotional turmoil.

As for the dirty things between you two, hearing them only makes me find you more disgusting. I'm not really interested."

"Really? You're just pretending. I don't believe you! Melinda, you know what? You're as hypocritical and disgusting as Kyle. I don't believe you won't react to what I'm about to say.

Aren't you curious why Lawrence suddenly thought of switching Kyle's medication?"

Clara laughed, a sinister and terrifying laugh as she looked at me.

My expression changed, and I stared coldly at Clara, "What do you mean? So, my dad's medication was also switched on purpose by you and Lawrence? You're so vicious. Being Lawrence's mistress is one thing, but plotting against someone's life? Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

Clara laughed even more wildly, "You're anxious, aren't you? But without evidence, don't say things recklessly.

I don't mind you saying I admitted it. After all, I have to go get my medication later. I'm not mentally stable, so what I say doesn't count."

"Lawrence did what he did on his own. Switching the medication was his decision, not mine. At most, I just occasionally reminded him that Kyle looked down on him, thought he was low-class, despised him for being poor, and thought he was after your family's money, thinking he wasn't worthy of you.

Lawrence is a sensitive and vengeful person. He knew Kyle looked down on him, but he could endure it. I just reminded him and exaggerated the truth, and he couldn't take it."

I looked at Clara with eyes full of anger.

Clara continued, speaking proudly, "At first, Lawrence didn't plan to act. I told him that a woman like you, without much scheming, usually wouldn't want to sleep with a man. But once you did, you'd be more devoted. The best thing would be to get you pregnant with his child. With Kyle's hypocritical nature, knowing you were pregnant, he wouldn't let you abort it and would naturally accept him.

You were so tolerant, no wonder he liked me in bed and got tired of you. Later, after Kyle's physical examination, you mentioned to Lawrence that Kyle wasn't taking his medication properly. He couldn't resist and started researching medications that would conflict with Kyle's condition.

If you want to blame someone, you're the executioner who killed Kyle, hahaha."
