Chapter 24 

Clarched an eyebrow, a flicker of sarcasm dancing in her eyes. Honestly, Colton was being downright stupid

Why would he say something like that night in front of the cops? It’s a bold move, especially here at Moonlight. If the police were showing up, they were clearly ready to take on someone with clout 

And sure enough, the officer wasn’t messing around, pinning Colton with a firm grip. I don’t care who you think you are!” 

A cly grin played on Clara’s lips. Mr. Colton, where’s Nate? What’s his status?” 

Colton had just sent Clara a text about Nate being in the hospital. Now, Clara was grilling him, putting him on the spot, and making him 

lock foolish

His lips trembled with frustration; nobody had ever challenged him like this before.” 

The officer tightened his hold on Cotton’s arm. Spill it where’s the other guy?” 

Colton felt utterly disgraced, and the people who’d just been showering him with praise were now watching the drama unfold like it was phime entertainment 

Clara was stomping on his prized dignity! Clara! He swore he wouldn’t let this slide 

A crowd had gathered outside the lounge. They were all familiar with Colton since he was a regular here.X 

isn’t that the Warren family’s young heir? Why are the cops here?

What’s going on? Richard’s here tonight. Someone should let him know

The last hint of color drained from Colton’s face

Don’t

But before he could finish, the onlookers parted, and a man in a black shirt stepped forward

He camed himself with an icy authority. His shirt was casually unbuttoned halfway, and he surveyed the room with a look of pure impatience What’s happening here?” 

Clara had learned from her research that Richard was the heir to the Warren family business, someone with serious influence. 

Colton couldn’t even meet his eyes

Before the officer could say a word, Richard lit a cigarette. His laidback demeanor somehow charged with authority

Colton, speak up.” 

Colton seemed terrified of his cousin. His lips were quivering but he was unable to form a coherent sentence

Richard’s patience wore thin as he tucked away his lighter, striding forward to grab Colton by the hair. I said talk.” 

Richard, it wasn’t me, it was…”

Colton glanced at Clara, but he knew he’d drugged her last night. If the cops dug deeper, both he and Nate would be in deep trouble

He’d assumed Clara would be too scared to show her face for days, yet here she was, laying everything bare

Clara kept her cool as she faced the daunting Warren heir, breaking down the events with ease.” 

Basically Colton claimed i see the gynecologist hundreds of times a year and implied anyone could sleep with me. Everyone heard it. If word gets out, can I sue him for defamation?” 

Colton’s expression shifted again, his voice laced with urgency. Clara, you ” 

Before he could finish, a sharp slap echoed in the room, striking his cheek. His 

mouth 

head whipped to the side, and blood trickled from his 

Colton’s eyes welled up immediately, but Richard hit him, and he didn’t dare make a sound

Clara raised an eyebrow, feeling a deep sense of satisfaction
