Chapter 165: Finding a New Love for His Granddaughter-in-Law

Edward Harper cracked the door open and slipped in sideways, closing it behind him in the next second.

Clara looked at the person who suddenly barged in with a guarded expression,

"What are you doing?"

She didn't move to cover herself, instinctively wrapping one arm around her belly.

Edward's throat bobbed as he observed the woman standing bare,

"Did you fall?"

Clara watched him warily, slowly leaning away from the wall to stand straight. Just a step away, a towel hung on the rack; she wanted to grab it to at least cover herself a little.

Even though they were familiar with each other's bodies, this one-sided nudity made her feel peculiarly embarrassed.

Taking a step forward, she slipped again unexpectedly, this time falling straight into Edward's arms. Thankfully, he was quick enough to catch her.

Clara awkwardly cleared her throat, preparing to struggle free from his embrace.

Edward's large hand was firm on her waist, silently and steadily watching her.
