Chapter 95 Hallucination, Isn’t it?

Clara entered the cabin unannounced, startling the people there. She didn't expect

them to have a meeting in his cabin. It was the first time she saw his cabin. It was quite classy and elegant. The interior shows his character. He is surely a lively person. Clara loved how he decorated the plants in the window side.

"Please continue. I shall come after some minutes" Clara announced as she turned her heels to leave the place though she is not ready to leave the cabin so soon.

"No mam. We are good. You can wait here. Our meeting is almost finished" One of the members said and Clara was so happy to sit there. Alex didn't like the idea at all. He wanted to stay away from her side.

"We shall use a colour theme for this season." Alex said the theme finally, ignoring her presence totally.

Clara looked at him without blinking. He was flawlessly handsome and his style was absolutely stunning. Clara never observed him this close. He was just like a Greek god. She was openly drooling at his features which made Alex uncomfortable all of a sudden. He was facing her while all the members were facing him only. He looked at her sharply but she didn't shy away. That is now getting out of the hand.

"Let's wrap up the meeting here" Alex announced and the members inwardly smiled at him thinking that their boss needs to talk to his wife now. They left the place as Alex took long strides to reach her. That's when she averted her eyes.

"May I know what the hell you were doing just now?" Alex barked at her in his high pitch tone, making her flinch.

"How is that my mistake? It's your mistake." She snapped at him in retort.

"How is that my mistake?" Alex asked in his dangerous tone as he grabbed her arms more in anger. This girl is testing his patience level.

"How can I ignore you if you are so handsome." As soon as her words left her mouth, she felt dumbfounded. Damn her words and her brain which acts opposite to her nature. She cursed herself for uttering those. But seeing Alex's flushed face, she got little courage to extend the talk. She liked the idea of making him nervous.

Alex loosened the grip as he felt blood rushed to his face. No one dares to make him nervous like this. Clara looked too different and her words had a different impact on him.

Wen laventrineettivi. Siétárriturdy "Mac swords uropperwterrite saw Alexandra there.

"Can you leave us alone?" Clara said in one go as she wanted to stay there little more with Alex alone.

"Why should I leave?" Mac asked all annoyed with her words. It's not like they are such a lovely lovely couple. He knew about them and what was new that he had to leave them.

"Stop being a bear between husband and wife" Clara's mouth suddenly overworked and she could feel that she is not that old Clara. Some naughty teenage ghost has possessed her since she came back. Clara now didn't want to stop her mouth or her brain. She started enjoying the effect of her words on Alex.

"Mac won't leave. You will leave now" Clara gaped at Alex's words. She bought some pastries to have them with Alex. There is no way she would return without having them "If he didn't leave now, I will kiss you in front of him." she whispered yelled at Alex who was too shocked to register her words. She can't blackmail him like this. Can she? Her smirk was something new and Alex knew that she would do anything crazier now. It's not Clara who was always elegant and silent. She was behaving weirdly and abnormally.

"I will not leave and that's final. I too want to know what is suddenly cooking between you two" Mac's voice brought Alex back to the world. He looked at his friend and looked back at his wife who had a naughty expression on her face.

Damn he realised that he is SCARED now.

"If you don't want me to smash your head and make you handicapped, leave this room right now" Alex barked at Mac, startling Mac as he couldn't find out the reason for his sudden outburst. What happened all of a sudden?

Clara laughed out loudly as Mac left the room with a terrified expression.

Alex walked and closed all the curtains of his cabin as he walked dangerously towards Clara.

"Don't give the wrong impression. This is the office." Her words made him mad now. She was in full form and the worst part is Alex has no words to reply to her.

"Look, Clara. I don't know why you are behaving weirdly suddenly. You are testing my patience and you might regret even returning to me" Alex's rude and harsh tone made her a little sad but she just smiled back at him.

"Don't worry. I will never regret anything relating to you. You can't imagine how hard I have fallen for you. You can't imagine how I started trusting people again. You can't imagine what you mean to me now" Her words melted his anger like pudding as he stared at her blankly.

"I know I have been acting weirdly. But can you just give me some time?" Clara asked as she grabbed his hands.

"In these months, I missed you so much. And I guess that's why I couldn't control my emotions around you." Clara expressed genuinely.

"I won't disturb you anymore by saying that I love you. But I just wish you would forgive me and talk to me like before." Her eyes lined up while she said those. All of a sudden Alex felt guilty as if it's because of him. He didn't want to hurt her but he can't give her false hope.

"Let's have the dessert" Clara made him sit there as she took the pastries. She handled him one box while she started digging in the next one.

"When you were gone, I was so damn exhausted" Alex's words grabbed her attention.

"I have always supported you no matter what. But you chose to leave without any word" He directly accused her but his soft words made her heart bleed. She shouldn't have left him. But she too knew that these five months made her so confident and strong.

"When Doctor. Kriya told you that I am having a mental illness, what did you think?" Clara asked suddenly as she doesn't want him to be in the dark anymore. She wanted him to realise that it was his thoughts which compelled her to leave him.

Alex looked at her eyes and didn't want to lie at this moment.

"Anyone can have an illness. I understand. I wanted to treat you or else I wanted to make you comfortable enough so that you accept your illness yourself" Alex replied honestly.

"Hallucinations. That's what they wanted you all to believe that I have" Clara lets out a dry chuckle.

She stood up from the seat and raised her gown suddenly and Alex stood up instantly to see what she was up to.

She raised her red satin gown till her thighs revealing her smooth legs while Alex turned away not able to understand her action. Is it her new action?

"Look at me." She demanded and he couldn't avoid her. He turned to her side.

"I had an imagination at the age of ten that my grandma was hurting me with the burner." Her words confused him like hell. Who the hell would do such a thing to a little girl?

"Weirdly, when I came out of my imagination, I had this mark on my thighs" She added as tears rolled down her cheeks. Alex widened his eyes as his eyes fell on the burnt mark on her thighs. But that was not the single mark on her legs. He could see many faded marks and many fresh marks too.

"Hallucination. I thought that it was just an imagination. But why did I have to feel pain physically every time?" She asked as her lips wobbled to give a loud sob.

Clara never opened up to anyone in her entire life. She was surprised with herself. But she felt so light to express everything to Alex.

"What's the most surprising factor, you know?" Clara asked as she dropped the gown to cover her legs. She walked to his side as tears rolled down.

"They cooked the same story for my mom too. After a few days, she died." Clara said as her throat went dry recalling the worst day of her life. The single line has so many haunting memories for Clara. She had her worst days in that period.

"So, I was scared that history is repeating itself. I was scared to get trapped like my mom" Clara finally expressed what made her run away. Alex felt his hands become cold with the information he got. He never thought that someone could be so cruel. He never thought that Clara, who is so charming and beautiful, had the worst childhood. His heart ached with the intensity of the truth. She looked so innocent to get such a fate.
