Home / Chapter 153 Seeing Leo again six years later
The new secretary. Leo is silent. The personnel office is very efficient. He made the order yesterday and today they find him a new secretary. "Come in first." With that, Leo hangs up. Claire looks at the phone and feels lost. Doesn't Leo recognize her voice? Even after six years, her voice hasn't changed. Does he recognize it long ago but he is pretending? Claire looks at Leo's office door and is a little nervous. As long as she opens the door, she can see Leo, whom she hasn't seen in six years. What will Leo look like the first moment he sees her? Will he be angry or forbearing? Will he slap her directly and humiliate her severely? Claire thinks she thinks too much. Leo owes her. She doesn't owe Leo! If Leo beats her or even her son, she will fight back! Claire opens the door to hell with trepidation.
"Are you the new secretary? What's your name?" Leo puts down his work and says thoughtfully as he turns the pen in his hand. He didn't expect the personnel department to arrange such an interesting woman for him. She is wearing a dark gray business suit and thick black glasses. Her hair is tacky and she looks ugly. This woman is at least thirty or forty years old. Does the personnel department want him to have less contact with beauties or get married earlier? Claire doesn't know what Leo is thinking. She freezes when she hears Leo. He asks her what her name is. Is her makeup so good that Leo can't recognize her? Claire thinks that is good. She doesn't have to worry about what Leo will do to her. Since Leo can't recognize her, she will naturally change her name and identity to survive. Claire suppresses her emotions and nods. She stoops to Leo and says politely, "my name is Angie. Hello, president." Leo nods. Angie is a good name. Leo wants to reach for the cup, but he finds that there is no coffee in it. He tells her, "make me a cup of coffee." "Yes, president." Claire goes to get Leo's cup. When she approaches, she finds that after six years, Leo's temperament has changed. He becomes mature and less domineering than before. His face becomes soft and not as hard as before. He sits there quietly and looks like a successful man. He exudes the charm of a mature man. They have a brief conversation and Claire feels he isn't as domineering as he used to be. She no longer has pressure when she talks to him. Leo has really changed a lot. Claire knows a lot of these men in France. Only when his heart is really quiet can he have such mature temperament. Such Leo is very popular with women, such as the former secretary who has left. Any woman who faces such a boss all day can't help falling in love with him. Unfortunately, Claire is not that kind of woman. She knows Leo's cruelty, indifference and temper. But why has Leo changed so much? Is it because of Tracy? Leo changes himself and softens himself for his fiancee. Otherwise, how could Leo have changed so much? At the thought of it, Claire is a little jealous. Anyway, Leo really changes a lot. Why does he always become better for other women? Why is he only good to other women? Why is he cruel to her? Thinking about what happened six years ago, Claire still has trouble breathing. By the time Claire regains her mind, the coffee is ready. She remembers the words of her former secretary and takes a small bottle out of the drawer. Claire brings the coffee to Leo and puts it on the table. "President, what else can I do for you?" Claire asks in a low voice. Leo is busy working and doesn't respond to her in time. He doesn't look up until he has read a document. He reaches for the cup and sips his coffee. Leo is suddenly surprised. The taste of this coffee is exactly what he likes! Leo raises his eyebrows and asks Claire curiously, "how did you do it?" At the same time, Leo thinks the secretary is strange. He doesn't like her at first sight. She is tacky but not self abased. She doesn't try her best to please him like other women. Angie seems to be keeping a distance from him. Leo is very satisfied with such a secretary. At least he can work at ease. His office won't be as noisy as it was yesterday. But Leo didn't expect the secretary to know his taste. She just made his favorite taste. Because he's always picky about coffee. Few people can make the coffee he wants. The former secretary practiced for a long time before she managed to make the coffee he wanted. Claire sneers in her heart. She bows her head slightly and says calmly, "the former secretary reminds me that you like unsweetened coffee. It has to be bitter but it can't be too bitter. So I put some honey in it." In fact, Claire lived at Leo's house for a while so she knows his habits. She saw his servant grind coffee for him, so she learned that Leo likes coffee with honey. His taste hasn't changed over the years!
