Chapter 971: Shaun Hides His Extreme Suffering!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Clara was indeed not a simple woman!

Yes, she was not a Deity and did not have Jordan’s ability to predict the future. However, just going by the way Shaun looked at her and her thorough understanding of him, she could accurately guess her fate.

She could clearly feel the deep love and regret in Shaun’s eyes when he looked at her.

Shaun did not admit it. He could not change the outcome of Clara being killed by Jordan. He did not want her to know that she was going to die soon.

He only hoped that she could spend her last minutes happily.

Shaun sighed. “Sigh, you’re always so paranoid. You’ve been like this since you were young.”

Clara looked at Shaun with love. She knew that her time was up, and her eyes filled with tears.

“Shaun, I’m very happy. I’m really happy. I don’t care about myself. Even if I really die later, I am happy to see you fulfill your dream before I die. I am happy to know that you’ve replaced Rong Bailun and finally became the number one person in the world! I am happy even if I am to die!”

Clara’s heartfelt words made Shaun cry.

He pulled her into his arms.

“Clara!!”

Shaun couldn’t hold back the tears as be cried.

Clara also cried, but she took the initiative to wipe her tears and said to Shaun, “I’m Victoria now. I’m so beautiful. I should show you my most beautiful side. I shouldn’t cry. Shaun, let me serve you as Victoria?”

Shaun looked at Victoria’s beautiful figure and couldn’t help gulping. “You… are really willing?”

“Yes! We should take revenge on Jordan together! He’s the one who made us lose our home!”

Clara was vehement.

Shaun nodded and grabbed Rong Bingshao, who was lying on the bed, before throwing him to the floor.

As this was happening, Shaun sneered and thought to himself: ‘Jordan, even though you’re a Deity, you never expected that I would be the person sleeping with your wife!”

…

Meanwhile, Jordan from 2021 and Lionel had already arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel where the real Clara was hiding.

Jordan knew that his other self would meet Lionel tonight, so he had already instructed him not to mention the paper explosions again.

Lionel treated Jordan’s every word as gospel and did not dare to disobey.

The capital was no longer in danger and Clara had just killed several of Lionel’s subordinates. Things had gotten very troublesome. So Lionel was not in the mood to talk about the paper explosions anyway.

…

Four Seasons Hotel, the entrance of room 507.

Jordan from 2021 and Lionel stood at the door, preparing to attack. Wearing an invisible cloak, Jordan snuck into the room and heard Clara’s laughter.

“Go to hell, old witch!”

Jordan waved his dagger and stabbed Clara!

However, when Clara looked at Jordan’s face, she was neither shocked nor angry. She still had a warm smile on her face.

Jordan was very confused. What kind of person would smile after being stabbed?

If Clara was a woman who was not afraid of death, she would not have escaped from Switzerland.

Jordan hated Clara for controlling Victoria. When he saw her smile, he became even angrier.

Therefore, he stabbed Clara again and again!

However, Clara was still smiling even as she died!

“What a terrifying woman!”

Jordan was shocked. His understanding of human psychology had already reached perfection. However, even he could not understand why a person would smile without any fear when faced with imminent death!

One year later, after Jordan found out about Victoria and the 18-year-old boy, he finally understood.

It turned out that Clara wasn’t talking to him at that time.

That smile was also a provocation to Jordan.

The smile seemed to be saying: ‘So what if you killed me? I’ve already ruined your wife’s body.’

However, later on, Jordan felt that something was wrong.

At their age and status, their bodies and chastity were no longer important. This was something that only young folks from ordinary families would care about.

How could such mundane matters be compared to life and death?

Jordan felt that this was not enough to make Clara smile so brightly.

If Jordan knew what had happened, he would finally understand why Clara was smiling so happily.

Her happiness had nothing to do with Jordan or the 18-year-old boy.

Her dying smile was for her husband, Shaun!

She was smiling so happily before she died because she had witnessed her husband fulfilling his dream!

She knew that in the future, her husband would replace Rong Bailun and become the number one person in the world!

She knew that in the future, Shaun would kill Jordan to avenge her!

This was the most accurate interpretation of Clara’s strange smile.

…

Ritz-Carlton Hotel, the presidential suite.

“Clara! Clara!”

Shaun shook Victoria’s body and kept shouting.

Due to Clara’s sudden death, her connection with Victoria had been severed.

Victoria immediately fainted as well.

Shaun knew that Clara had just been killed by Jordan. He was devastated as he hugged “Victoria” and cried in sorrow.

“Clara… I’ve let you down. I’ve let you down, Honey! You stayed by me all this while, but I never managed to give you a good life. You’ve suffered with me since you were a young girl. When you reached Switzerland, you didn’t dare to go out and spend money even though you had it. You stayed in the castle all day.

“You wanted children but I refused. I wanted to only have children after we became Rong Bailun and his wife. I deserve to die, I deserve to die!! I couldn’t even fulfill this simple wish of yours!!

“Arghhhhhhh!”

Shaun was crying profusely. He had never felt so heartbroken before.

Earlier today, he had indicated to Jordan that he did not care about Clara’s death.

But it was all a lie.

Shaun and Clara had known each other since they were young children. Their relationship spanned decades and they were even closer than blood relations. How could he not care?

Shaun still treated Victoria as Clara. He hugged her tightly and roared.

“Clara, I will definitely avenge you! Jordan! You killed my wife. This grudge is irreconcilable! I swear that I will kill you with my own hands! I will avenge my wife! Rong Huangde! You ruined my life by killing my father and uncle. You even want to pry into the Handley family’s secrets!

“I swear that when I travel back in time to decades ago, to the time when my father and uncles were still alive, I will definitely work with them to kill you and Jordan! When Jordan travels back in time to Cocodrie to help you investigate the secrets of the Handley family, it will be the time for Jordan and Rong Huangde to be destroyed!

“By then, I will become the number one person in the world!”
