She knew sothing others didn’t: Clara was in love with soone and had been saving her first ti for him.
After what just happened, shouldn’t she be devastated? Or... was the shock so great that it had unhinged her?
"Actually, I’m not calm at all. I might look calm on the outside, but inside, I’ve already gone insane. I want to grab a knife, kill that fat bastard who drugged and the scumbag who took advantage of , and then kill myself to prove my innocence!"
Clara Grant’s eyes narrowed as she voiced her true thoughts. ’But those were just thoughts, of course. She would never actually do it!’
But her words startled Sarah Shelby, who imdiately lunged forward and grabbed her hands, terrified she might actually jump up and go looking for a knife.
"Clara, you need to calm down. Please don’t do anything rash. Those scumbags deserve to die, but you don’t have to throw your own life away for them. You’re so young. You have a bright future and so many good days ahead of you. Leave this to . I’ll get revenge for you!"
Seeing Sarah’s worried expression, Clara Grant was touched. She pulled a hand free and booped Sarah on the nose, letting out a soft chuckle.
"See? You’re the one telling to be calm. So what else can I do right now *but* be calm? Don’t worry, I won’t do anything foolish. If sothing happened to , what would my mother do? Besides, now there’s a little bun waiting for to take care of. Of course I can’t let anything happen to ."
Hearing this, Sarah Shelby finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat up straight. But the rage in her heart hadn’t been extinguished, and she repeated indignantly, "Clara, leave this to . Don’t you worry, I’ll be sure to get revenge for you!"
Sarah Shelby was a month older than Clara Grant, which was why she was always calling herself the "big sis" around her.
This ti, Clara Grant froze for a few seconds before speaking quietly. "Forget it. It’s already in the past, so let’s just pretend it never happened. Besides, even if the fat man who drugged is unforgivable, I can’t say the man who saved from him wronged . After all, I was the one who was drugged. For all I know, I might have been the one who forced myself on him in my delirium. Ha, hahaha..."
She even managed a few laughs at the end, as if to prove her point, but to Sarah Shelby’s ears, they sounded incredibly forced and sorrowful.
Sarah Shelby said no more, but she made a silent vow: ’Even if the man who slept with Clara couldn’t help himself, that fat bastard who drugged her is absolutely unforgivable. I will make sure Clara gets her revenge!’
After a mont, she spoke again. "Clara, I don’t think you should do these errand-running jobs anymore. Sure, you can earn a little money, but it’s only enough to barely make ends et. And you could run into dangerous situations like what happened yesterday. You’re an acting major; you should be making money from acting gigs. You’re beautiful, and you’ve got talent. With those two things alone, you can definitely make a na for yourself in the entertainnt industry. Clara, listen to . Starting tomorrow, I’ll help you find so connections and get you a role."
"Sarah, you know it’s not that people haven’t noticed or offered roles before. But every single ti, it falls through for no reason. I an, I’m a junior now, and I still haven’t landed a single part in a show or even a comrcial. Soone is deliberately sabotaging , pulling strings behind the scenes so I can’t get any acting work."
Clara Grant gave a faint, bitter smile and shook her head helplessly.
