Chapter 44

• Lucas watched from the window of the mall as Clara embraced a young guy, one probably younger than she was, and exchanged a kiss with him. He was not so surprised as he had suspected she was up to something.
• He had told her that he had an early morning meeting, only for him to park his car and stay in it a few meters from the house.
• She had come out about an hour later to head out. She had not told him that she would be going out later in the day. She had bluntly told him that she did not have any plans for the day.
