"Yes! Boss!"
Before getting on the car, Juan looks at Claire's floor with complicated eyes. Then he bends down and sits in the car with a strange smile on his lips.
...
Claire can't sleep well all night because she feels guilty. When she gets up in the morning, she sees herself haggard like a ghost in the mirror.
She doesn't even bother to change her dress and goes out wearing a pair of thick black glasses.
Claire comes to the company. As soon as she gets out of the elevator, she sees Leo who also happens to come out of the president's elevator.
They look at each other. Claire nods at him and wants to go to her job, but Leo stops her.
"President, what can I do for you?" Claire is not happy with him at the thought of their unexpected meeting at noon yesterday.
"Claire...?" Leo says in a declarative tone as he walks slowly toward Claire.
Claire wants to nod, but suddenly she feels something is wrong. She looks at Leo in shock and doesn't speak.
What did Leo just call her? Claire?
Does Leo's memory come back? Does he recognize her?
In front of Claire's stunned face, Leo shows a playful smile. He comes to Claire and quickly takes off her glasses before she can react.
Looking at the same face as the beautiful woman last night, Leo can't help chuckling. He satirizes her, "Claire, it's you. Your face is really changeable. It can be ugly or beautiful. Will you be an old woman when I see you tomorrow?"
Leo's words are full of ridicule. Claire is stunned and immediately understands what happened.
Leo recognizes her real identity and knows that she is Claire and Claire is his secretary, Angie. Claire doesn't know how he recognizes her, but why does he scold her?
She likes to make herself ugly. What's wrong?
But fortunately, he doesn't remember what happened six years ago!
Claire doesn't care when she is exposed. She snorts and says scornfully, "it's my freedom how I dress up. President, you care too much."
"Really?" Leo disagrees. "You're Claire, aren't you? If you come to work as Angie, I can accuse you of fraud. Do you think it has nothing to do with me?"
"I..." Claire clenches her lower lip and knows she is wrong. She doesn't go on, but she doesn't want Leo to talk to her in that tone, "but you can't make fun of me."
"You played a trick on me." Leo is getting closer to Claire. They are only one step away. He is domineering and powerful.
Maybe she didn't sleep well last night. Claire is bluffed by Leo. She doesn't know how to refute.
Claire doesn't speak. Leo sneers and looks at her tacky outfit and says, "change into normal clothes tomorrow. Take off your hair and this pair of glasses."
"No!" Claire is not satisfied with Leo's bullying. She becomes stubborn. Since Leo cares so much about her appearance, why does she stay here?
She resists, "it's my freedom how I dress up. You are not qualified to decide my dress!"
In fact, Claire is more concerned that Leo only likes her beautiful appearance rather than herself.
She doesn't need such a boss!
Leo doesn't know what Claire is thinking. He smiles meaningfully and looks at her. "The company stipulates that employees should be decent in their personal image and should not be sloppy or damage the company's image. You're damaging the company's image."
"Why am I not very decent? I'm also very well dressed. You haven't said anything for a long time. Today, why do you force me to change my clothes when you know my real identity? President, do you like my beautiful appearance? Am I beautiful? Do you like me?" Claire satirizes him. Her words are full of disdain and provocation.
Leo's face changes a little and he says scornfully, "I like you? Stop joking. I have a fiancee. How can I like you? Why do you have to be ugly if you can be yourself? Do you want to attract my attention in this way and make me feel that you are a different woman?"
This bastard is talking nonsense again!
Claire can't help sneering. Since he has always said that she seduces him, she will make him dare not to say that in the future. Bastard!
Claire changes her face and says seriously, "Yeah, I just want to get your attention, so what? President, are you crazy about me and want to see me dressed up? As for your fiancee..."
At this point, Claire sneers. Leo sees the haughty look on her face for the first time. "Is your fiancee comparable to me?"
Claire's words arouses Leo's interest. He suddenly laughs happily and says, "so you like me?"
"..."
Claire feels deeply speechless. Doesn't he like his fiancee very much? She slanders his beloved fiancee, but instead of being angry, he asks her with interest?
Claire doesn't know what Leo is thinking. Damn! What does he mean?
Claire says awkwardly, "I'm just making metaphors. Can't you tell by your intelligence? Besides, president, please recognize the reality. If I really want to seduce you, I won't dress so ugly. Don't say it's my special tactic. Through my understanding of men, you ask yourself if you will like such an ugly woman."
"What's more, I'm not stupid. I don't mean to be so ugly to seduce a man with a fiancee. I should dress normally to have a good chance. Leo, don't look down on me! I don't like you!"
