174 174. Happiness for Everyone

“Honey, where are you going?” asked Samuel as Clara got out of bed, away from his embrace. “It’s still too early to wake up.”

Clara chuckled. “I have to go to the hospital, Sam.”

“Lea?”

Clara nodded and smiled. “I want to convince her to give birth to her child as soon as possible.”

“Are you sure you can?”

Clara was silent for a moment. After she got Samuel’s love, she felt alive again. When she thinks about Lea, she felt that everyone deserved happiness, regardless of any sins they had committed in the past. Lea was no exception.

“Lea is an educated person. I will show her scientifically. I hope she will understand,” Clara replied again.

Samuel smiled lightly. He felt that Clara’s zest for life had returned. “Give me a kiss and I’ll let you go,” Samuel said with a playful look, pouting his lips.

Clara naturally laughed at Samuel’s childish behavior. She didn’t reward him with a kiss but tickled Samuel until he screamed for mercy.

.....

“Hey, you make me want to do it again, baby!” shouted Samuel, pulling Clara’s body back into bed.

“What are you doing, Sam?” Clara yelled with wide eyes when Samuel covered her naked body with his.

“Of course, I will teach you a lesson!” replied Samuel, sneering cunningly.

That morning, another session occurred before Clara could finally go to the hospital. Of course, she did it with difficulty because her energy was barely drained.

At the hospital, after completing her summary, Clara rushed to Lea’s room. However, she ran into Dave in front of Lea’s room.

“What is it?” Clara asked, finding Dave’s gloomy face unfriendly.

The man just shook his head in response. He was about to leave Clara because his feelings of awkwardness and heartache for that woman were still there, even though they had both decided to end the relationship on good terms.

Clara didn’t give up. She knew how he put on a face when he was in trouble.

“Tell me,” Clara said forcefully. She shook Dave’s shoulder so he would tell her what had happened.

Even Dave couldn’t go against Clara’s wishes. He said softly, “My dad … he didn’t want his grandson to be born out of wedlock. He … asked me to marry Lea.”

Clara was stunned for a moment. No wonder Dave was reluctant to tell her. As it turned out, what happened was not pleasant to hear or tell.

“I think that’s for the best,” Clara said. “Did Lea agree with the plan?”

Clara’s question just floated in the air. She knew Dave was in trouble. It must have been because Lea didn’t want to cooperate.

Dave looked down, trying to see something other than Clara’s face. However, he saw a diamond ring pinned on Clara’s ring finger. The ring that wasn’t from him.

“Congratulations,” whispered Dave in endless anxiety. It was unpleasant to know that Clara had completely ready for a new relationship with someone else.

“For what?” asked Clara with a pounding chest. She then realized that she was wearing a ring from Samuel.

Dave patted Clara on the shoulder and said, “Wishing you all the best of happiness.” He forced a smile, but his lips trembled as result. There was no smile to be seen.

That’s all Dave said. He then left Clara with a tight chest, trying to convince himself that everything about Clara was no longer his business. He had to focus on Lea and their child.

Clara realized what Dave was doing. She glanced at the ring in her hand. What was she going to say? Sooner or later, Dave would find out about her relationship with Samuel.

The doctor then entered Lea’s room and greeted the woman with a light feeling. “Good afternoon, mom! How are you today?”

Lea was stunned to find Clara’s attitude changed so drastically. Lea felt both scorned and confused by such a friendly gesture. A few days ago, didn’t Clara still look gloomy and cold?

“You look so cheerful, doctor,” commented Lea hoarsely.

Clara smiled kindly. “I asked, how are you?”

“I asked why you canceled the wedding which was only a few days away. Why did you do that to Dave, Clara? He loves you so—”

When Lea’s eyes looked at the diamond ring on Clara’s left ring finger, that’s when she realized that as Dave said, Clara was serious about ending their relationship. Not only because of the presence of the baby in her womb but also because there was another man.

Unknowingly, Lea’s tears fell. “Why? Why does it have to be like this?”

Lea burst into tears, covering her face with her hands. Clara, who couldn’t stand Lea’s crying, approached her patient and hugged her tightly. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m

“Lea, please understand … Dave and I are done. Please don’t prolong it and regret it,” whispered Clara in a hoarse voice, holding back the pain in her chest that still appeared briefly.

Lea shook her head, unable to believe that she was destroying people’s relationships. She didn’t think she would fail to get Clara and Dave back together.

“Lea, realize that there are things we cannot change in this world. I heard that you also ended your relationship with your former boyfriend because he married another woman, right? Even if you and he have been in a relationship for a long time,” Clara said without separating herself from Lea. “Have you ever thought that fate plays with us? Our soul mate comes too late, destroying the plan we have built for a long time.”

Clara separated from Lea, then continued to say, “The paths will be different, but everyone deserves to be happy with the person who is meant for them. So do you.”

Lea was still sobbing, trying to stop her crying.

“Now try to think for you and your baby’s happiness,” whispered Clara. She then took out her tablet to report on the success of the six-month-old baby’s birth and the facilities that the hospital had. “Your baby deserves a complete family. Having a father and mother.”

Lea stared at Clara with teary eyes.

“Don’t you want to see your child grow up, walk and run while calling you mommy?” Clara asked again, making Lea’s sobs deepen.

Lea could only nod in response. She hugged Clara tightly, God knows how long she did it. She didn’t know whether to thank or apologize to Clara either. She just realized that what Clara said was her dream.
