Clarence dragged Peony away. “Mom, William’s really lying. Let me have him.
“I’m sure I can make him tell everyone the truth.”
He wanted to continue hitting William.
“I won’t let you beat William, no matter what!” Peony looked furious.
Steeling himself, William pushed Peony away and threw himself at Clarence’s feet. “Auntie, get out of the way. This kid’s insane. I can’t let you get hurt because of me. Just let him hit me.
“I’m not afraid. Even if I get killed, I have no qualms about it.”
Thump.
Clarence kicked William. William did a somersault and fell onto his stomach. Then, Clarence rushed forward to pick William up.
“Clarence, you’ve gone too far.”
“Stop it, you loser!”
Belle and Melody were shouting and screaming as if things were not chaotic enough already.
Peony rushed over to break up the fight, only to be pushed back several steps by Clarence.
Armstrong roared angrily, “Clarence, are you out of your mind? You’ve even pushed your mother-in-law!”
‘I’m not out of my mind. William’s lying! Whatever he says is false!” Clarence’s eyes were red.
Slap...
A loud slap rang out, subsequently filling the ward with silence.
Clarence froze in place and let William go.
A scarlet slap mark bloomed on his face.
Miranda was stood in front of Clarence. “Clarence, that’s enough!
“How long are you going to go on making a fuss?”
Clarence bellowed, “Me? How am I making a fuss?
“William was lying. I’m just trying to make him confess who really saved you!”
Clarence’s heart was pounding fast, and for some reason, he had become so agitated that it seemed like he was now out of his mind.
“You’re making him confess? How are you going to get him to confess?
“Torture?” Miranda gave Clarence a mocking smile.
Seeing that Clarence was a little insane, William rushed forward again with a hint of amusement flickering within the depths of his eyes. “Clarence, don’t hurt Miranda.”
Clarence saw William rushing toward him and instinctively kicked him again.
Thump...
William fell back and sprawled onto the ground.
“Enough!”
Shaking with anger, Miranda darted to the bedside and pulled out some divorce papers from under her pillow. “Clarence, let’s get a divorce.”
She grabbed the nurse’s pencil on the table, signed her name in a single breath, and tossed the divorce papers to Clarence.
“I’ve signed my name. From now on, we’ll have nothing to do with each other!”
Miranda’s eyes were red. She felt like crying, but she also seemed determined.
She was disappointed.
“Haha, divorce.”
Clarence felt disheartened as his heart sank. “Do you think that badly of me?
“You’d rather believe that William saved you, rather than me?”
Miranda looked at Clarence coldly. “I only trust my own eyes.
“I saw William when I woke up, not you!
“Tell me, where were you then?”
Instead of Clarence, she had woken up to see William.
How could they have faked that?
Could she be blind?
Clarence roared, “He tried to rape you!”
William looked angry. “Clarence, what are you talking about? Miranda’s your wife. How could you say that about her?
“It doesn’t matter what you accuse me of, but Miranda’s your wife!”
Peony beat her chest in anger. “Karma. What have we done to deserve this?”
Belle and Melody also pointed at Clarence’s nose, scolding, “Clarence, do you have a heart?
“How could you say that about your wife? How could you use the word ‘rape’?”
Miranda shook her head in amusement. “Are you sure he’s the one who wanted to rape me, and it wasn’t you?
“Clarence, is there any truth in what you’ve just said?
“I... realize what you’re really like now!”
Miranda was angry yet amused. “So what if William wants to rape me? I’m willing!”
Blargh...
“You’re willing...”
Clarence felt a sweetness in his mouth. He spat out the blood. His hands and feet were shivering, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He could put up with anything other people said about him.
However, Miranda’s words were like a knife stabbing Clarence’s heart!
Belle was disgusted. “How gross. He’s even pretending to vomit blood.
“What kind of trick is he trying to pull?”
Without another word, Clarence trembled as he picked up the divorce papers from the floor and signed his name as quickly as he could.
There were two copies.
Clarence took his copy and handed Miranda the other. “Here you go!”
There was nothing sadder than a withered heart.
Miranda burst into tears. She had not expected Clarence to sign the divorce papers.
‘Shouldn’t Clarence be crying and making a fuss?
‘Shouldn’t he be begging me not to divorce him?
‘Shouldn’t he have torn up the divorce papers?
‘Why did he sign them?’
Miranda’s head was buzzing as she frantically snatched back the divorce papers. “Get out! Get the f*ck out of here!
“I never want to see you ever again!
“Clarence, I hate you. I hate you!”
William stood in the blind spot of the group, a smile of success on his lips. He had these fools wrapped around his little finger.
Clarence smiled ruefully. “It’s over, Miranda. I’ve lost.
“From now on, I don’t owe the Murphy Family anything!”
Clarence spoke each word decisively.
It was over.
He was free now.
Peony spoke bitterly. “Oh, what do you mean you don’t owe the Murphy family anything? The Murphy family has taken care of you for the past three years.
“Even your clothes and underwear belong to the Murphy family. Are you sure you don’t owe the Murphy family anything?
“Who are you pretending to be? Return your clothes and underwear if you dare!”
“Okay!” roared Clarence.
He took off his clothes and underwear, standing there naked in front of everyone.
“Ahh!”
“What are you doing?”
“You jerk, are you trying to harass us?”
Peony and the other ladies covered their eyes, shocked that Clarence had actually taken off all his clothes.
Armstrong snapped, “What are you doing, Clarence?
“Your mother-in-law’s still here!”
Miranda stared blankly at the naked Clarence, tears streaming down her face.
‘Does Clarence really want to get away from me that badly?’
Clarence looked sad. “I owe the Murphy family.
“I’ll give you Dragon Soar Heights’ Villa One.
“Consider that my repayment.”
With that said, Clarence walked up to the window and pulled down its curtain. He wrapped it around himself and headed out of the ward.
Peony kept cursing at Clarence’s back. “What a loser. You still want to harass us, even after the divorce!
“Bah! Bah! Bah! You hurt our eyes!”
Belle curled her lips in disdain. “He still put on a show before leaving. Giving us Dragon Soar Heights’ Villa One?
“Is it even yours? It’s William’s villa.”
William froze. “What Dragon Soar Heights?”
“You don’t know?” Peony and the rest were shocked.
Miranda closed her eyes in anguish. “Mom, Clarence owns the villa.”
“What?”
The whole ward fell dead silent.
