Brynn also makes occasional remarks, listening to Kate joking with Claire.

"Well, now you just play jokes with me? Who used to go around all day long with sticks and tell people that she was going to be a hero? Who would not believe you are a strong woman now?" Claire looks at Kate and could not help laughing.

"What! Why are you still talking about the things ten years ago! I am already on my way to being a fair maiden, all right?" Kate jumps up in a hurry and wishes that Brynn could support her, but Brynn just shakes her head and smiles, "You two have a good argument, I am neutral."

Claire is surprised. She glances at Brynn inadvertently and feels something is wrong with Brynn today.

Without thinking much, several people continue to chat, and time passes quickly. Claire feels it doesn't take very long, but finds that it is too late.

Kate also says with dry mouth and drinks some water before leaving, so Claire takes the two women to the door.

Kate goes to the door, taking Brynn's hand, and says to Claire, "BYE!"

After that, Kate is about to leave, but Brynn falters, as if she has something to say.

This confuses both of them, and Kate asks incredulously, "What is wrong, Brynn?"

Brynn thinks, and suddenly says, "Kate, you go back first. I have something to say to Claire."

Kate, glancing at Brynn with a flat face, seems a little angry and says, "Well, what secret don't you have told me?"

Kate says so, but she is so careless and nods her head and smiles, adding, "Well, I am a generous person, so you two talk your secret. I am going home to bed. Brynn, Claire, good night." says Kate and leaves.

After Kate leaves, Claire pulls Brynn. She doesn't know what Brynn is going to do, but feels something in her heart. Claire smiles and says, "Kate is as careless as she used to be, but now her mind is sometimes refined."

Brynn nods perfunctorily and says, "Let us go inside."

As soon as the two women enter the room, Brynn becomes very nervous. She takes Claire's hand and says, "Claire, you must help me this time!" Says, even in her eyes also raise tears.

Claire quickly sits down with Brynn and says, "Don't worry. What is the problem? Today I see something is on your mind. Is that your stepmother who is making trouble for you?"

Brynn nods and says, "She kicks me out of the house. What am I going to do?" says Brynn, sitting aside, sobbing softly.

Brynn, like Claire, has a terrible stepmother.

Probably because they are in the same situation, Claire usually takes care of Brynn.

Claire thinks and asks, "Where do you live now? How can I help you?"

Claire doesn't expect that Brynn is sobbing to say, "I am homeless now, Claire. Can I stay with you for few days?"

It was not surprising that Brynn doesn't know the true situation about Claire, but it gives Claire a shock.

In her relationship with Leo, it is...

"Claire, is it not convenient for you? What am I supposed to do?" Brynn stammers.

Looking at Brynn, Claire bites her lip and doesn't know how to refuse. After thinking about it, she holds Brynn's hand and says, "Brynn, don't worry, I understand your situation. Okay, I will talk to Leo about this, okay? After all, we are just getting married, and this is his house, and I have to hear his opinion, don't you think so?"

Brynn nods at once.

Claire asks Brynn to sit in her room for a while, then about to go out to find Leo, but she hesitates again and again.

Brynn also notices that Claire seems a little nervous, and tentatively asks, "Will your husband let me stay?"

Claire naturally knows that Brynn is sensitive enough to sense something is wrong, so she pats her hand and says consolingly, "Brynn, don't worry, I will make sure you will stay!"

With that in mind, Brynn relieves, takes Claire's hand and says, "Claire, please."

Claire bites her lip. Leo is so abusive to her that she doesn't know what Leo is thinking about, but for Brynn, she has to try.

Thinking so, Claire takes a deep breath, knocks on Leo's door and pushes it open and walks in.

"Just say, what is the matter? Why are you coming to me? You are not going to beg me for anything, are you?" Leo sneers, coldly speaking to Claire.

Claire looks up at him in surprise. How does he... how does he know she has something to ask him?!

With her head down, Claire says hesitatingly, "Well... can you let Brynn stay here for a few days? She is really homeless..."

"Give me a reason for her to stay." Leo speaks coldly.

He doesn't really need to know why Brynn wants to stay. He just wants Claire to beg him.

Claire, who doesn't know what to say, wrings her fingers and says uneasily, "Help her, Brynn, she is really... really pathetic, and besides, she is my best friend!"

"That is your reason? Claire, you know, my house is not a relief station." Leo sneers, somewhat disdainful.

Leo's reply chills Claire's heart, and when she is overwhelmed and tries to retreat, she hears a sneer from Leo and says, "But it is okay for me to keep her..."

"Really?" Claire immediately raises her head and her eyes are full of anticipation.

"Mm-hmm, but I have one condition!" Leo squints dangerously.

Claire frowns and raises a scary feeling in her heart, but still asks, "What is the condition?"

Anyway, she is going to have to fight for Brynn.

Leo seems pleased with Claire's answer, with a smile on his lips, but the words he uttered are cold, "It's not too hard, you just have to use your body to please me until I feel satisfied."

"Please you?" Claire's face is pale, and the tone of her voice suddenly stiffens, "It is impossible!!"
