Home / Chapter 85 Why not divorce
Claire quickly goes to the hospital after dressing herself up. She finds out Kate is not in the ward. There is no one in her bed.

Emma beside is lying in Leo's arms crying.

"I was hurt so badly. It is Claire who did it. Leo, you didn't punish Claire. You said she is just your nominal wife. In fact, you love her, don't you?"

Claire thinks Leo will be impatient, but she didn't expect him to hold Emma gently. He says, "she's just a slut. You are the only one I love most."

Emma doesn't believe him. She pretends to leave. She pushes Leo away. "In that case, she almost killed me. Why don't you punish her? I see. I'm just a mistress. OK, I'll leave."

Then Leo gently hugs Emma in her arms. He pats her on the back and says, "Emma, it's my fault. Don't get angry."

This action changes Claire's view of Leo.

Leo knows women better than anyone. He knows that at this time, what Emma wants is not truth but love.

Claire is surprised that Leo can do it for a woman.

But at the same time, Claire is surprised. Why?

Emma and Leo have such a good relationship. Why doesn't Leo divorce her?

If Leo delays, how should Emma become the young hostess? Claire doesn't understand.

When she is in a trance, she accidentally touches the doorbell and makes a sound.

Leo and Emma look at the door at the same time. Emma is closer to Leo when she sees Claire. She seems to be proving that she is more attractive than Claire.

Leo frowns at Claire. His eyes are full of disgust.

Claire wants to turn around and leave. She doesn't want to insult herself. But Leo stops her.

"Stop!"

Claire turns her back to Leo and says nothing.

"Kate was transported to another ward. I don't want to see that crazy woman. She's like you." Leo says coldly.

Emma points to Claire and says, "Claire, I remember everything you did to me today." She accidentally touches her wound while she is talking. She cries with pain.

Leo hurries to comfort Emma, and Claire takes the opportunity to leave.

Leo comforts Emma for a while, and he suddenly thinks of something. He holds Emma's shoulder and stares into her eyes and says with a smile, "I suddenly want to give you a gift. You must be surprised."

Emma blinks and asks, "you give me a present because I am hurt? You are too insincere."

Leo smiles and says, "of course not. It's a gift, but actually I want to give it back to you. It's a surprise."

Leo suddenly takes a wooden box out of the suit. The wooden box is well packed. Although it's black and doesn't have a red ribbon, it's like a box with a proposal ring.

Emma says in surprise, "you haven't divorced Claire. Are you going to propose to me? If so, it is too soon."

Leo touches Emma's brow. He says, "do you want to guess? This is what belongs to you."

Emma shakes her head in a daze. She thinks it isn't a proposal ring, so she loses most of her interest. She wants to accept Leo's proposal as soon as possible.

Leo shakes his head and sighs, "sure enough, you forget it. Be prepared to be surprised."

After that, Leo carefully opens the small wooden box. At the bottom of the black wooden box lies a simple jade pendant.

The jade pendant seems to radiate soft and weak light. It's ancient and delicate.

Leo looks at Emma expectantly, but Emma is stunned. She doesn't know what this jade pendant is.

But Leo doesn't think Emma's reaction is abnormal. He thinks it is such a surprise that she frezes.

In fact, Emma knows nothing about this jade pendant.

But Emma, who is often in the vanity fair, is not flustered. She quickly recalls and remembers what Leo has said.

Emma is wondering if this jade pendant belongs to the girl Leo is really looking for?

Leo's expression confirms this.

Emma's expression changes. She smiles and looks at the jade pendant, pretending to be surprised. "Why is it here? I can't find it all the time."

Emma is right.

Leo smiles and says, "have you forgotten the scene of our first meeting? You accidentally dropped it when you resisted. I keep it all the time and hope to find you one day."

Emma hugs Leo. Her heart pounds with tension. But she is happy and flatters.

"Leo, I'm so happy." Emma tries to make her voice vibrate with excitement.

"That's good."

Leo hugs Emma's soft body. He sniffs at her hair and rubs his head against her long hair.

Finally Emma pust the jade pendant on her neck. She blushes and says, "thank you."

...

Soon Claire finds Kate's ward. At that time Kate is looking at the white ceiling on the top of the hospital. She keeps kicking the quilt. She looks bored but energetic.

"Kate, are you feeling better?" Claire sees Kate's energy so she forgets her worries. Even if she thinks a lot, it doesn't make sense.

Kate is more energetic when she sees Claire. She smiles and says, "I'm fine. I was in pain but I feel better after the break. Don't worry about me."

Kate has a good constitution. The pampered Emma can't compare with her.

After chatting for a while, Claire is a little hungry, so she goes downstairs to buy something for Kate.
