Chapter 71 White Lotus
No one responded to Clara Bennett.
Even though the three brothers were still alive, their spirits had fallen into a temporary numb state, as if they hadn’t recovered from the shock moments ago.
Seeing this, Clara Bennett quietly left the study, gently closing the door behind her.
She tried her best to minimize the noise of her movements, afraid of disturbing the atmosphere inside the room.
Standing at the door, Clara felt a little sad herself.
Having been reborn, she had hoped to cherish this familial bond more and strive to be a sweetheart to her brothers, rather than adding extra worries for them.
Yet the reality was so cruel, completely beyond her expectations.
But now that things have reached this point, they couldn’t really let William just leave, could they?
If they let him go now, how would future discussions about the marriage proceed?
Since she impulsively agreed to marry him, she must fulfill her promise, which is the basic principle.
The reason she chose to take all the responsibility herself was, on the one hand, to fulfill her promise at the time. On the other hand, it was to give William a way out.
After all, if her brothers were convinced that he had done something excessive to her, they would definitely hold a grudge against him. But if it was initiated by the female side, at least outsiders would have no reason to criticize.
