Claire can't remember how long she hasn't had a comfortable dream. Whether she was by Leo's side or six years after she left him in France, her dream was always dark and cold. She dreamed of Leo and her dead father.
But Claire has a peaceful and warm dream last night that she doesn't want to wake up.
In the dream, Claire and Leo form a small family. And, of course, the lovely Conan. They are very happy.
That's what Claire has been expecting. So she smiles almost all night and seems to be happy.
But Leo suffers. His coat is worn by Claire so he is cold all night. He has to hold Claire in his arms and not move. And he has to look at Claire's inexplicable smile.
Leo wonders why she smiles, but he doesn't wake Claire up until dawn.
Claire is as beautiful as a quiet lotus when she is asleep. There are times when Leo wants to wake her up, but he can't. He can only wait gloomily.
But finally, the sun comes up and more and more people walk by the lake. He can't hold Claire here all the time.
At this time, Claire smiles again. Leo pinches Claire's nose.
Claire can't breathe and finally opens her eyes and wakes up.
"Leo, what are you doing?" Claire rubs her eyes and protests discontentedly, "I had a good dream..."
Leo helplessly points to the bright sun and says, "Miss Bennett, look at the time."
Claire gets a stab in the eye from the sun. She squints and looks around. She finds a lot of people by the lake so she comes out of Leo's arms. She blows hard at the bangs on her forehead and says with a smile, "I haven't slept so comfortably in a long time."
Claire stretches hard and looks at Leo carefully. She finds that he seems to be several years old overnight and has dark circles.
"Didn't you sleep all night?" Claire is a little surprised.
Leo sighs, "you finally think of that. If you don't mention it, I can't tell you it as a man. I haven't slept all night and can't move for fear of disturbing your good dream. But you sleep well."
Instead of comforting, Claire laughs, "you deserve it."
Leo deserves it. After all, he kissed Claire last night, or he wouldn't be like this.
There is no free dinner in the world!
Leo shakes his head helplessly and says, "the key is that you kept smiling. If I were young, I would have waked you up and asked what dreams you had."
Claire is reminded and reminds of last night's dream. She giggles and ignores Leo.
"What did you dream of?" Leo frowns and resents Claire for ignoring him.
Claire is interrupted and says discontentedly, "I won't tell you. You woke me up. I haven't finished my dream yet."
Leo chuckles and touches Claire's nose with his finger and says, "I see. You dreamed of me, didn't you?"
Claire is exposed. If she admits, she will lose face. She pretends to say casually, "President Howard, you're cheeky and narcissistic. But you took care of me all night, so you can think of it that way."
Leo ignores Claire's disguise. He nods directly and positively and says, "well, it's time to go home now."
Claire says in disbelief, "don't you have to go to work?"
Leo says, "what do you think I've been doing for the past half month? I've finished my work so I can take you home. Howard Group is almost OK. I can take a good rest with you."
Claire says, "what? Am I going home with you?"
Leo says, "of course. Am I going home alone?"
Claire says, "we are not married. You're going to take me straight home?"
"Do you want to stay with Luke all the time?" Leo looks at Claire scornfully.
Claire says, "can't I do that?"
Leo suddenly smiles mysteriously, "if you live in Luke's house, where does Kate live?"
Sure enough, Luke told Leo about it. Leo directly denies Claire's explanation. It seems Claire has no choice.
In other words, Claire doesn't want to refuse what she deserves.
Leo says, "today you go home. Our pre marriage cohabitation begins. Claire, are you ready?"
Leo is too naive. Claire looks around and whispers, "I might be ready."
It's obvious that President Howard is not satisfied with this answer.
"Claire, can you be serious? It's a big deal. Tell me loud. Are you ready?" Leo stares at Claire seriously.
Claire has no choice. She looks up and closes her eyes and yells, "yes, I'm ready. Let's go home."
Leo nods contentedly and touches Claire's hair with her hand. He seems to be rewarding her for her cleverness.
Claire pulls Leo away quickly because there are so many people staring at them. Everyone is wondering if it's unlucky to see a pair of neuropathy in the early morning.
On the way back, Leo seems very energetic and not sleepless at all.
