Leo looks at Claire in disgust. He is surprised. In his mind, Claire is a slut. She usually pretends to be pure, but she kneels for her friend. Leo is shocked.

He has a little pity for her. But Emma is still crying in his arms. He puts Emma down to let her in the car first. Leo assures her, "I won't let her go. You go to the hospital first."

Emma doesn't dare to disobey Leo too much, so she can only agree.

Claire thinks she and Kate will be tortured, but Leo just stands there. He smokes quietly and then leaves with a group of people in black.

After everyone leaves, Claire believes that Leo has let her go.

Several motorcyclists come in at this time. They call an ambulance to take Kate to the hospital.

When Kate gets to the hospital. Claire sees Emma in a coma in another hospital bed.

She's here, too! Claire grits her teeth.

But just as she is going to see Kate, a group of people in black rush in and drag Claire out.

Claire knows these are Leo's people. She doesn't know what Leo wants to do to her, but she can't resist.

Claire is sent home by the men in black. In the big living room, the huge chandelier gives out a dim light. Leo is sitting on the sofa with his legs up and a cigarette in his hand.

Leo has been staring at the dying cigarette end. He seems to be waiting for it to go out, and then he smokes.

The men in black and the maids leave. Leo throws the cigarette end in the ashtray. But it's still fuming.

"What are you going to do?" Claire looks at Leo calmly. She can't be angry with this shameless but powerful man.

Leo walks up to Claire and throws her directly on the sofa.

Claire is just about to struggle when Leo grabs her chin. "You're very capable!"

Claire is pinched hard by him. She moans, "it hurts..."

"You know the pain!" Leo sneers. "You're my woman. No matter how I treat you, even if it's pain, you have to suffer."

Isn't she suffering enough?

Claire sneers scornfully. She's tired of Leo's tone. She doesn't want to struggle anymore.

Leo is not satisfied. "You should be obedient. Do you know why? Since you want to know about your father, I'll tell you today."

Claire has waves in her eyes. Leo seems to have found her weakness. She stares at him.

Leo has a bloodthirsty smile on the corner of his mouth. He says slowly, "your father is now in a private hospital. Almost no one can see him but Jade and I."

Then he adds, "your father's illness is worse than you think. No hospital can keep him alive except mine. Do you understand?"

Claire is shocked. "Why? Can I see him?"

"No!"

"Why?" Claire asks.

Leo shrugs. "It's simple. Because Jade knows how to compromise with me. But you don't please me. Why should I let you see your father? Your father loves you very much. He calls your mother's and your names every day. But I don't want your father's wishes to come true."

Leo's heart is still full of hatred from the previous generation. This is what Claire hates most. She does not understand why a man with such a cool and wise mind should remember the hatred of the previous generation.

It's funny and pathetic.

Claire's face is expressionless. She knows she has no choice now.

"What do you want me to do?" Claire looks at her knee. She really doesn't want to see the humble her in Leo's eyes.

"It's very simple. Please me!"

"..."

Claire is speechless. She moves her lips with disdain and feels sad. The man in front of her is missing Emma, but when Emma is injured, he makes her please him!

Does he want to humiliate her?

Claire sneers and closes her eyes. She whispers, "OK!"

Leo didn't expect her to agree. He freezes and suddenly clenches his teeth. He says angrily, "Claire, you're too coquettish. I don't want to touch you!"

After that, Leo pushes her away. He gets up to tidy up and leaves the villa.

It isn't until Leo leaves that Claire finally opens her eyes. She sneers scornfully. The pain in the body is no match for the pain in the heart. But she doesn't care.

The big living room is very quiet. Even the maid who used to taunt Claire is full of pity in her eyes.

Claire lies on the sofa for a long time. The complicated look in her eyes finally disappears and becomes calm. But her eyes are more dim.

She stands up.

There is finally a sound in the living room which is as quiet as a cemetery. She takes a breath and clung to her ragged clothes. She walks past the maids who have pity on her.

She doesn't need any pity. It's the least valuable thing in the world.

Claire returns to her room and takes a quiet bath and cleans herself up. Anyway, now she can't be vulnerable. Kate is still in a coma.

Leo goes to the hospital to visit Emma, but Kate and Emma are in the same ward. Claire is worried something will happen.
