Home / Chapter 294 The mysterious man
Seeing this, Luke smiles and goes to the sofa and sits down. He jokes, "it seems I shouldn't worry. I regard you as my good friend. You found Claire, but you didn't tell me immediately. I'm still worried about you. You are merciless!"

Leo glances at Luke and says unhappily, "stop. Why are you here?"

"I'm afraid you don't get along well, so I come here to have a look!" Luke looks at Leo excitedly and says discontentedly, "I shouldn't worry. I'm despised by you. I should not be a peacemaker."

"Shut up!" While Luke is talking, Leo goes to the fridge and takes out two bottles of wine. After Luke finishes, Leo throws a bottle on him and says impatiently.

Luke immediately picks it up and continues to tease, "I remember I had red wine last time."

"Why don't you bring it?" Leo glances at Luke and opens the can and drinks.

Luke opens it and says, "President Howard, you're so stingy. You don't even have a bottle of red wine."

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll throw you out of here!" Leo threatens him.

"No, I'm not talking!" Luke immediately waves and surrenders. Seeing this, Leo doesn't want to continue to talk to him.

...

Meanwhile, Claire returns to her seat in a fretful mood. She is not satisfied that Luke saw what just happened. It's all Leo's fault. He did that to her in public.

Luckily it's Luke. If it's someone in the company, she can't explain. But does Luke think she's a flirtatious woman? If he tells Kate, Kate will kill her with a knife!

Claire is upset. A girl comes up from the elevator. She is the girl who took Claire upstairs yesterday.

She takes a package and says to Claire, "Claire, this is the president's package. The courier specifically told me to deliver it to the president. Give it to him later."

"I see." Claire is normal when she's facing someone else. She takes the package and puts it aside.

Claire doesn't go in. The girl can't help saying, "Claire, the courier said it has to be delivered to the president right away."

With that, the girl looks around. She approaches Claire and whispers, "by the way, Claire, you haven't answered my question yesterday. Are you the old lover of the president? Is that boy your son? They look alike, but I want to hear you admit it."

Hearing the girl's words, Claire reluctantly picks up the package that has just been thrown aside and says angrily, "didn't you just say that the package is urgent? I'll take it to the president first."

"Claire, I have something else to do later..." The girl hurriedly follows Claire and advises her, but Claire turns a deaf ear and goes straight to the office.

At the door, the girl can't continue to ask, so she says to Claire sadly, "well, I'll ask you again next time. See you later, Claire."

Then she leaves reluctantly.

Claire looks at her back and shakes her head helplessly. Even if what she says is true, Claire can't admit it. If she says no, she's lying. She has to try to convince the girl. She doesn't even want to cheat a colleague now.

She is very tired. She's going to lie countless times. She is too tired.

Claire stands at the door of the office. She knocks and then opens the door and walks in. Leo is talking to Luke. They stop when she comes in.

Claire walks up to Leo and hands him the package. Then she leaves the office again without saying a word.

After Claire leaves the office, Luke teases Leo, "you don't seem to get along well. Have you had a fight?"

Leo doesn't hide it from Luke. He sighs helplessly and says wearily, "she is angry that I have restricted her personal freedom. She blames me for not letting her go anywhere. Yesterday she wanted to go back to see Conan and I didn't approve it, so she quarreled with me."

Leo's tone is like that of a couple fighting.

Luke wants to laugh. He says reproachfully, "you are too selfish. Claire is stubborn. If you want to control her, you might as well... No, I mean women are stubborn. After a while they will not be angry."

Luke wants to criticize Leo. When he sees his cold eyes, Luke immediately changes his words.

And Luke says, "even if you're right, you can get Conan to your house. Why is she so angry?"

Hearing Luke's words, Leo shakes his head helplessly. He looks at Luke and says meaningfully, "if only it is so easy. She doesn't tell me Conan's address."

They have been friends for more than ten years. As soon as Luke sees Leo's eyes, he knows what he wants to say.

Luke ponders for a moment. He looks at Leo and says, "you mean she's hiding something from us?"

"Yes." Leo nods lightly.

Luke looks at Leo and asks, "because of her mysterious friend?"

Leo nods again. At the same time, he begins to worry.

They investigate Claire's mysterious friend through many ways and channels, but they can't know who Claire's friend is. Whenever they have a little bit of a clue, it breaks somewhere.

They don't know if it's a coincidence or if someone is behind it.
