99 Days Trapped in the Body of the Royal Prince’s Wife - Chapter 73
At ten o’clock in the morning, Clara was ready to meet with Fabrizio. She already looks beautiful in a pink dress with open sleeves, letting her hair down, and wearing a small black branded bag. She also wears heels as high as 10 cm and wears light make-up.
“Where are we going, madam?” asked Anthony, the bodyguard Nathan sent to take Clara wherever she went. The dashing man dressed in a black suit opened the door for his master.
“To the mall,” said Clara casually then entered the car.
Anthony closed the door again and then entered the car. He immediately drove the black luxury car to the outside of the mansion area.
While on the way, Clara started texting Fabrizio.
Me: we met at the mall. Find a safe place where we can talk.
Until a few seconds passed, Clara immediately got a reply.
Fabriana: in the mall is not safe, madam. We’d better go to the cafe. I am waiting for you in the VVIP room with Paulina.
Me: Alright, share the location.
Clara looked back at Antony who was focused on driving, then got a message from Fabrizio’s cafe address.
“Anthony, I changed my mind. Let’s just go to the cafe because I want to relax there before following Nathan to the hospital,” Clara said with a flat look.
“But which cafe are we going to, ma’am?” Anthony asked without turning his head.
“We’re going to The Angelou Son,” said Clara.
“Okay.”
Anthony returned to his driving focus, occasionally glancing at Clara from the glass above him, while Clara put her phone back and shifted her gaze to the outside view which looked calm because it was still working hours.

At the office, Nathan had just finished chairing a meeting. he returned to his room, chatting with his father who had come suddenly with his mother.
“Nathan, so you just let the case go?” Diana asked, frowning.
“No, I’m not closing the case…It’s just that I want to be silent because the person we have suspected has been proven innocent and the accused is the secretary,” Nathan said, sitting on the couch.
Diana sighed, leaning her back against the couch’s shoulder. “Mommy also think why Liora and Patricia were not proven guilty at all when all this time they were the only ones who hated Clara so much.”
“I think I’ll pay someone else to investigate them,” Nathan said, remembering Clara had accused Felix of cooperating with Liora and Patricia. It was undeniable that he was starting to feel that what had happened to his wife’s allegations made sense.
“Didn’t you already want to leave all of this to Felix?” asked Rudolph who was sitting casually beside Diana.
“Yes,” Nathan said briefly then glanced around. “Honestly I’m starting to lose faith in him. I feel like whenever I handle matters concerning Aunt Liora and Patricia by telling him to sort it out, it’s always me who loses.”
“What do you mean Felix being partial?” asked Rudolph with a frown.
“Who knows.” Nathan took a deep breath.
“But he has served our family for many years and we know that he is very honest and even sacrificed for you,” said Diana who was seen.
“I don’t want to be presumptuous either but this is what happened…I also won’t tell him that I will pay someone else to take care of this case … I will still use him but I also use other people, and we will see the results,” Nathan explained angrily. .”I also don’t want to offend him because he’s been helping a lot so far. But I also want to see what it’s like when I send someone else to take care of my problems..and I also want the scandalous video or photo to be destroyed because I’m tired of being constantly restrained by Patricia,” he continued curtly.
“That’s not a bad idea,” said Rudolph, rubbing his stubby chin. “Who knows by sending new people we will find a way out.”
“It’s up to you how you want to deal with this, the most important thing is not to let the poisoning incident happen again. Mommy couldn’t sleep well because Patricia had been staying at your mansion for a few days…I’m worried that there will be more poison in your food or drink or Clara’s,” said Diana angrily, still thinking about the incident when Clara was poisoned. Hmm, if she only knew, her daughter-in-law died in that incident.
“That’s not going to happen, Mom..I’ve been anticipating,” Nathan said calmly.
“Okay then, daddy will return to the office,” said Rudolph as he stood up. He glanced at Diana who was still annoyed. “You’d better go home with the driver. I can’t take you,” he said.
“No, no … .You have to take me home!” Diana shouted, standing up.
“Sweetheart, but that would be bothersome. I have to meet a client too.”
“I don’t want to know, you have to take me!” Said Diana and then walked out of the room first.
Rudolph sighed, looked at Diana who was walking towards the door, while Nathan just smiled faintly seeing his mother still being spoiled and wanting to be cared for by his father.

Arriving at the cafe, Clara immediately got out of the car after the door was opened by Anthony. She glanced at the bodyguard, thinking what to do to keep the bodyguard from following her too much.
“Anthony, I think you should just wait outside,” she said.
“Okay, ma’am. If something happens, call me immediately … I’m at the front,” said Anthony calmly.
Clara nodded then immediately entered the cafe, which had shades of black and yellowish-brown. She immediately approached the manager, to find out where Fabrizio and Paulina were.
“I’m Clara…You must know who I made an appointment to meet,” Clara said when she met the manager, who was a well-dressed man wearing a black suit.
“I know, ma’am…Let me take you,” said the manager, then asked Clara to walk to the top floor by climbing the stairs that were not too high.
Drett… Drett…
She heard the sound of a phone ringing from inside the branded bag she was wearing. Clara immediately took the phone and then saw an incoming call from Nathan.
‘Huh, what does he want? Why did he have to call when I was on my mission?’ Clara chuckled in her heart then decided not to answer the call and put her phone back in her bag.
“I’m sure, after this, he will ask a lot of questions like a journalist. he’s a possessive guy, not like Michael who let me do whatever I want,’ Clara thought as she continued walking until the manager stopped upstairs where there were several VVIP rooms with metallic nuances with orange lighting.
“Please come in, ma’am,” the manager called out.
Clara nodded, then immediately entered and smiled when she saw Fabrizio and Paulina who were sitting casually eating snacks. this was the first time she had seen the couple together, and there was no surprise that the man she trusted was the lover of her husband’s secretary.
‘If it continues like this, maybe Paulina can help me too,’ she thought as she walked over to them.
