First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 247

Chapter 247: Chapter 247: He No Longer Loves Ellie

This was the first time Caleb Lockwood saw Claire Shaw dressed like this.

Not only was Claire Shaw dressed in a yellow delivery uniform, but she also wore a cap with a large brim and a thick black mask that almost covered her entire face.

Caleb Lockwood’s first reaction was that Claire Shaw was disguised like this to sneak into The Lockwood Group smoothly.

The huge loss of 1.5 billion was blamed on Claire Shaw by Arthur Lockwood.

Therefore, currently, Claire Shaw is not allowed to enter The Lockwood Group.

So, Claire Shaw disguised herself as a delivery person to sneak in.

However, Caleb Lockwood had an inexplicable feeling—

There was more than one reason for Claire Shaw to dress like this.

Even after sneaking in, Claire Shaw did not take off her hat and mask.

If it weren’t for Caleb Lockwood’s familiarity with her, no one would recognize her.

Caleb Lockwood remained silent.

He didn’t ask Claire Shaw what exactly was wrong.

Even though he was somewhat concerned in his heart.

Although only her eyes were exposed, one could still see that Claire Shaw’s mental state was extremely unstable, filled with panic, eyes red, with bloodshot whites, clearly showing signs of crying, as they were almost swollen to the size of almond pits.

Seeing Caleb Lockwood, Claire Shaw’s tears couldn’t be held back anymore.

She walked over and hugged Caleb Lockwood.

Caleb Lockwood felt Claire Shaw trembling all over.

"Caleb... save me... save me... I can’t do without you... I can’t live without your help..."

Claire Shaw spoke with a clear cry in her voice.

"Caleb, I beg you... don’t ignore me... I have nothing left, just you..."

Claire Shaw grabbed Caleb Lockwood’s arm, burying her face in his chest, tears falling continuously.

The only sound in the office was Claire Shaw’s sobbing, making it particularly quiet.

Finally, Claire Shaw heard Caleb Lockwood speak:

"Was it you who helped Cynthia Fulton contact Adam Aldrin?"

Claire Shaw’s body suddenly shivered.

Since Claire Shaw didn’t lift her head, Caleb Lockwood couldn’t see any guilt in her eyes.

But the reaction of Claire Shaw just now was not small.

"Caleb Lockwood, you suspect me!"

Claire Shaw forcefully pushed Caleb Lockwood away, eyes wide open in disbelief.

"How can you blindly suspect me?"

"Then why didn’t Cynthia Fulton accuse anyone else but you?"

"Caleb..."

Claire Shaw opened her mouth wide, struggling to breathe through the mask.

Actually, Caleb Lockwood was waiting, waiting for Claire Shaw to give a more convincing explanation.

However, Claire Shaw suddenly shouted hysterically at him: "Even the police couldn’t find evidence, on what grounds do you slander me?! Besides, even if it was me, so what, Cynthia Fulton is the real murderer! And Serena Jennings should have died anyway!!"

The echo faded, leaving the office in dead silence.

Caleb Lockwood faced Claire Shaw.

Claire Shaw clearly saw the escalating disappointment in Caleb Lockwood’s eyes.

"Do you remember what I said to you before?"

Caleb Lockwood spoke lightly, yet coldly.

Claire Shaw shivered all over.

"I said... if there’s anything you want, I can compensate you... one last time..."

The entire 1.5 billion in liquid funds was Caleb Lockwood’s compensation to Claire Shaw.

In the end, he broke his word.

The promise he made to Ellie at the juvenile detention center was never fulfilled.

He changed his heart.

He no longer loved Ellie.

He felt only guilt and pity for Ellie...
