Clara’s Miraculous Recovery
(Original Title: 克莱拉宝病愈)
Whenever Clara’s name is mentioned, everyone knows her as a spirited socialite, immune to the clutches of illness. However, after resigning from her secretarial position due to a leak of confidential information, she fell ill. Yet, Clara’s time in the city of gloom was brief. Just a few restful days later, she regained her radiant health. Ah! It seems others may fall ill, but for this vivacious lady, illness seemed impossible to imagine. When she was ill, her inner glow dimmed. Perhaps if the world’s lively souls were to feel lonely, they might find joy anew. I wish her eternal freedom from illness.
