Home / Chapter 289 You can’t escape for life
Leo squints at Claire's words. He is angry. Claire doesn't explain. It shows that she's guilty! They may have the kind of relationship he imagines. If they're innocent, why doesn't Claire tell him the truth? Leo's heart is cold. He snorts, "in that case, you can't go back to your son. You will never see him again in your life." "Leo!" Claire is angry and her eyes turn red. She whispers, "can you let me go home and pick up my son? I will live with you." "No way!" Leo says firmly. He says coldly, "you tell me the address and I'll pick up your son or you won't see him again. As long as I'm alive, you can't leave me!" "Leo, you're inhuman!" Claire almost cries because of Leo. She doesn't want Leo to see her wet eyes, so she jumps into Leo's arms and bites him on the arm. She cleans her tears by the way. She doesn't give in suddenly. She is too reluctant. Leo is bullying her and depriving her of her freedom. Now he doesn't let her go home to see her son. To be honest, Claire doesn't like being imprisoned, which makes her feel extremely depressed! "..." Leo straightens up and lets Claire bite his arm. After Claire vents and lets go of him, Leo says, "have you stopped being angry?" Claire turns and refuses to look at Leo. Leo sighs in his heart and takes Claire's hand and walks to the elevator. Claire wants to get rid of Leo's hand but Leo holds it tight. Claire is even more upset. Leo takes Claire to dinner. During the whole process, Claire refuses to talk to Leo. She is cold and ignores him. Leo keeps calm all the time but he is a little helpless. If he doesn't, Claire will run away immediately. Leo really doesn't want to experience losing Claire again. He doesn't know where she is and how she is doing. He wants to see her. The feeling that things are not under his control is very unpleasant. They have dinner in silence. Leo takes Claire to his villa. He can't help kissing Claire, but Claire is stiff and doesn't respond. Leo thinks it is boring, so he doesn't go on. ... It's time to get off work. Claire is supposed to be home now, but when Juan and Conan are sitting at the dinner table, Claire still hasn't come back. Conan looks at Juan, who is looking at the door, and can't help but remind him, "godfather, why don't you call Mommy and ask her why she hasn't come back?" Claire worked overtime the other day and came home late. Now Claire has finished the design, but it's dark and she hasn't come back. Juan is worried. When Conan finishes, he takes out his cell phone and calls Claire. But no one answers! Juan frowns. He is worried about Claire's safety. Claire hasn't come back yet. Does she have an accident? Juan immediately dials another number and asks about Claire. He's Claire's boss, the man who usually tries to please Juan. When the phone is connected, Juan simply and directly indicates his intention. When the boss hears Juan's words, he freezes and asks, "hasn't Claire told you that she has resigned?" "What?" Juan raises his head in shock and Conan is startled. Juan thinks quickly. He remembers that Claire warned him not to let Conan know that she is not at Howard Group. He smiles at Conan and stands up. He goes to the living room and asks, "what's the matter? When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me she left?" Juan's questions stun the boss. He knows Juan is angry. The boss makes it clear to Juan. Juan angrily drops his cell phone on the sofa after listening. How dare he let Claire go to Leo's company alone! She won't come back! He didn't tell the boss, but he didn't expect the boss to dare Claire to do such a thing! He's useless! Juan is so angry that he wants to kill. He managed to pull Claire out of Leo's side, but now it's a failure! If the boss shows up in front of Juan, Juan will kick him to death! When Juan's person see him unhappy, he runs over and whispers, "boss, what's the matter?" Juan looks at him coldly and says, "investigate where Claire went after she left the company!"
"Yes!" The man leaves immediately and leaves Juan alone in the living room angry. Conan feels the atmosphere is wrong. He jumps off the table and runs to the living room. He asks Juan curiously, "godfather, what happened to Mommy?" Juan is in a bad mood but when he sees Conan, his anger is half gone. He can't let Conan worry, so he has to smile reluctantly. He goes to Conan and squats down. He touches his head and says, "Mommy is fine. She can't come back tonight. Let's eat dinner first." "OK." Conan pretends to believe Juan's words and nods naively. Juan pulls Conan back to the table. They know Claire won't be back tonight, so they start to have dinner. ... They have their own worries, so they eat very quietly. Claire's not at home, so Juan and Conan talk less.
