Chapter 919 Before Jail
In the Saunders family, in the study on the second floor.
Clarence put the phone on the desk, took out a cigarette from the cigarette box, lit it up and anxiously
took a puff.
The smoke blurred his vicissitudes face.
In recent days, he hadn't slept well and was in low spirits. Clarence had lost much weight.
His daughter's wedding was just around the corner and he had guessed countless times when and
where would Ivan arrest him.
In his workspace?
At home?
On the road?
Would he have him arrested right after the wedding?
Or would he spare him for a few more days?
These questions lingered in his mind, giving him a heavy pressure. He could not escape, if he escaped
now, his daughter's wedding would be ruined.
In fact, for Clarence, one more day of freedom was equal to one more day of suffering. He felt like
living inside a cage.
Maybe only in prison could he finally sleep soundly.
Downstairs in the kitchen, the chefs were busy. Shirley specially asked them to make a few dishes that
Finnley loved.
"Ma'am, you are really considerate. You have never even asked his preferences," Paula praised her.
Shirley relied with a smile, "He will spend a lifetime with Mya and I need to know his preferences. I'm
sure he will love these dishes, make more of them."
"Yes, ma'am," said Paula. "It's hot in the kitchen, you should wait in the living room. I will watch it for
you."
Shirley looked inside, "Thank you then, Paula. Remember not to put any ginger."
"Got it!"
Shirley walked to the living room and saw Clarence coming down from upstairs. "Clarence, don't you
need to go to work today?" She had thought he was gone.
"Not for the next two days. Chester will take care of everything."
"You really trust him." Shirley took his arm, smelled smoke and frowned, "Why did you smoke again? I
thought you didn't like smoking."
Before she got an answer, a white Maybach was parked in the yard.
"Mya is back." Clarence whispered.
Shirley turned her eyes and hurried toward the door of the living room. She went to the yard and soon
came in with the young couple.
Mya and Finnley smiled happily, and greeted them after entering the house.
"Come home for dinner when you are free after marriage," Shirley was delighted to see them, "Anyway,
it's not far away. You are our only daughter, you will always be the apple of our eye."
"I will, mom." Mya agreed.
"Where did you get this bracelet? It's gorgeous!" Shirley was sharp-eyed, she took her daughter's hand
and said, "It seemed like an antique. Did you just buy it?"
"Finnley's mother gave it to me. His grandmother gave it to her 30 years ago and she had been
wearing it."
"Oh!" She got it. It had been passed on from generation to generation. The Russell family had really
taken her as family now. noveldrama
Shirley was delighted and suddenly felt a bit sorry when her eyes fell on Finnley, "I didn't prepare any
gift for Finnley..."
"Mrs. Saunders, you don't have to," Finnley was smart and held Mya's shoulder, saying in a gentle
voice, "Mya is the best gift from you. Thank you for bringing her into the world."
Then he looked at Clarence, "I will not fail Mya and will love her for the rest of my life. I will protect her
with my life no matter what happens."
Shirley was moved while Clarence felt heartbroken when he looked into Finnley's eyes.
He couldn't protect his own daughter anymore...
