How to Tame a Villain Character-Chapter 37: Is the Storyline Change?

Claudia didn’t understand what Carlos meant by suddenly bringing up the past. However, Carlos’ suspicious movements actually made him want to monitor Carlos throughout the night. Claudia deliberately stayed up all night, but on the other hand, she was also curious about what her husband was doing in the middle of the night with President Howard.

Previously, Harry said to go to bed first because there was something very important he wanted to discuss related to business matters. However, according to Claudia, that’s not what Harry did. But there are other missions that must be carried out without his knowledge.

Actually, it was more likely that Claudia wanted to look after Clarissa all night. Half of her mind also felt embarrassed because this luxurious residence was not her own home. It was impossible for her to enter someone’s room for illogical reasons.

On the one hand, Claudia was curious that Carlos’ last words sounded more and more like a threat. Turning and turning while crumpling the blanket, approaching tomorrow actually made him afraid of facing hell.

At the same time, Harry entered this room with a quite tired expression. Claudia sat back and squinted her eyes. It was even more strange looking at her husband’s gloomy appearance as if something had happened to him.

"Harry, where have you been?" Claudia asked quietly.

Harry furrowed his brows, took off his tie then put it on the table. "Didn’t I say earlier that I wanted to discuss it with President Howard?"

"It’s strange why you two have to discuss this late at night?"

"Why are you interrogating me just because I didn’t accompany you to sleep?" Suddenly Harry felt that his wife’s purpose in interrogating him suddenly seemed to be jealous. "You suspect me of having an affair with Clarissa?"

Claudia felt like she wanted to laugh out loud at her husband’s stupid accusations. "Why would I suspect you of cheating!"

"Doesn’t that sound very reasonable? This afternoon I suddenly had a conversation with Clarissa without you. Isn’t that what men do when they want to have an affair with another woman?"

"I never accused you of cheating." Claudia patted the king size bed with a sweet smile. "Come here, Harry. I couldn’t sleep actually."

Harry looked away. "I haven’t showered yet."

"It doesn’t matter. I just need you now."

Harry was forced not to clean himself to accompany his fussy wife to sleep. Even though it was actually uncomfortable to sleep with his sticky body. Slowly he lay down, dressed in formal clothes, then faced his wife, who gave him a pitying look.

"If I smell bad, don’t blame me!" Harry scolded firmly.

Claudia shook her head while stroking her husband’s soft cheek. "I already know your past story."

"What is the story?"

"Actually, your relationship with Clarissa is quite close. In fact, you were once Clarissa’s hero."

Harry moved his lips left and right with a sullen face. "That Clarissa really can’t keep a secret!"

"In fact, I have to thank Clarissa because I know what your true personality is like."

"After hearing Clarissa’s story, you will definitely think of me as the most annoying man."

Claudia shook her head while touching her nose to the nose in front of her. "I like you more and more. I really like men who are heroes towards women."

Again, listening to the sweet words spoken from his wife’s sweet lips, Harry’s heart began to pound. Even though Clarissa had said it in the past, hearing the way Clarissa and Claudia spoke, Harry really liked hearing those words spoken from Claudia’s lips. His cheeks were red, his right hand spontaneously stroked his wife’s head as a result of expressing his happiness at being praised by her directly.

"You really like me being a hero?"

Claudia nodded enthusiastically. "Because being a hero is a really cool thing and everyone can’t do it."

"But, haven’t you been disappointed that I always kill innocent animals every holiday?"

"When it comes to that, I’m still very disappointed because you are cruel to animals. But, as a fellow human being, you are very kind."

If this sweet conversation continued, Harry predicted he would have a heart attack. For a moment, he hugged his wife’s body tightly while rubbing her head.

"Claudia, why do you always think of me as a good person?"

"Because from what I’ve seen since I married you, you’ve always been good in my eyes."

"Is it true? Are you sure you won’t be disappointed one day?"

Claudia raised her right eyebrow. "Why did you suddenly say that?"

"It’s just..." Harry exhaled roughly. "Never mind forget it. "You’d better go to sleep, tomorrow we have to go back to Edenburgh city."

*****

The next morning, before Claudia and Harry returned to Edenburgh, President Howard invited them to breakfast together first. Today’s breakfast menu is strawberries freshly picked from the garden, accompanied by dessert, i.e., strawberry cake.

Claudia’s eyes lit up looking at the strawberry cake whose decoration was very attractive to her eyes, she couldn’t wait to taste it. However, on the other hand, she was worried whether the strawberries that Clarissa was going to eat were actually poisonous or not. She tried to throw negative thoughts away, maybe the storyline had changed because he had previously succeeded in saving Alice.

"Wow, daddy really asked George to make a cake for us!" Clarissa cheered while clapping her hands.

"I remember you and Claudia really liked sweets. "That’s why I asked George to make strawberry cake, especially since the strawberries that were just picked this morning were very fresh." President Howard looked at these two beautiful women with a happy smile. "You guys try to taste the cake first."

Claudia bowed politely, then cut the strawberry cake into small pieces. When she wanted to put one piece into her mouth, her husband immediately threw the spoon on the floor. This surprised everyone in the dining room.

"Don’t eat it, Claudia!" Harry snapped with a worried look.

Claudia rolled her eyes. She wanted to squat down to pick up her spoon from the floor, but her husband immediately stopped her.

"What are you doing exactly?" Claudia also snapped without hesitation.

"The strawberry cake you ate was poisoned!"
