Chapter 1294 Russell's Villa - Everyone Found Out As soon as they entered the door, Mya, who was pregnant, asked, "Dad, Mom, where is Claire?" At that moment, Holly appeared at the staircase, "Miss will be here shortly. | don't know if she's feeling unwell, but she didn't eat lunch." There was a hint of concern in her voice.
Mya looked up at Holly and shared her concern.
"Should we consult Dr. Watson later?" Violet was worried, "If there's an illness, it's best to treat it early. Young people often stay up late, which can lead to health problems." It seemed they hadn't seen the news and didn't know that something had happened with Dr. Watson.
"Mom." Finnley spoke softly, revealing the truth, "Dr. Watson brought a girl hlast night, and it's all over the news." Violet and Albert were utterly shocked, exchanging glances.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRowan's promise to Claire during their last dinner together was still fresh in their minds.
A brief silence fell upon the living room.
Everyone's hearts sank, worried about Claire's feelings.
Soon, footsteps could be heard coming from upstairs.
Everyone looked toward the staircase and quickly saw the girl descending.
Claire had changed out of her pajamas, put on slight makeup, and carefully combed her hair, appearing in better spirits than they had imagined.
"Brother, sister-in-law." With a smile on her face, Claire stepped down the stairs, "You're back? Let's have dinner together." Seeing her in good spirits, the worried Mya was puzzled but relieved, "Claire." Violet was still in a state of shock. What was going on with Rowan? He wasn't a bad guy! What was written in the news? "Dinner is ready, everyone goes to the dining room!" Violet snapped out of it, smiling at everyone, "I'll be right there after a quick visit to the restroom." With that, she turned and headed to the restroom.
The moment she closed the door, she quickly pulled out her phone and opened the news page.
She saw not only the headline from the morning, but also the photos - Rowan and Daphne exchanging glances and talking in the yard, sitting together on the couch in the living room, and then heading upstairs.
She also saw the interview Daphne had given an hour ago, surrounded by reporters outside the hospital. Her words indirectly confirmed her relationship with Dr. Watson.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmViolet clutched her phone, her heart trembling slightly. She also felt guilty - had she misjudged the situation? No one knew how much Claire liked Dr. Watson, but as her aunt, Violet understood.
How heartbroken must Claire be to see such news? Claire hadn't left the house today, and Rowan hadn't cover either. Had they talked on the phone? In the dining room, Claire tried to hide her sadness. She hadn't eaten lunch, and facing a table full of delicious food, she had no appetite.
She picked up her fork, took a bite of noodles, and couldn't help but tear up. She held back, not wanting to be laughed at or to worry her family.
But everyone saw her pain and felt it in their hearts.
Violet sat down at the table as well.
The family ate in silence. Albert, concerned for Claire, personally served her a bowl of soup, "Here, Claire, if you can't eat the noodles, have ssoup. It's nutritious." Tears the size of beans rolled down Claire's face and splashed into the soup.
Claire put down her fork, picked up the soup bowl, and drained it in one gulp. Then she picked up her fork again.
She didn't speak or look at anyone, afraid they would see the sadness in her eyes.
"Why would he bring another woman home?" Violet put down her utensils, speaking angrily, "Rowan must give us an explanation for this! He can fool others, but not our Claire!"
