Claire is extremely upset while hearing the constant sound on the phone. She puts a pool of cold water and immerses her face in the water. She wants to clear her mind and thinks about if there is any other way.

She wants to tell Leo all these things. Handling all this alone makes her feel like she is about to suffocate. But if she really tells Leo, Juan can do anything out of anger.

Although Juan says he wouldn't do anything to Conan, it is only when there are no emergencies.

There is no other way, and Claire smiles wryly and walks out of the room.

Leo sees Claire walking out of the bathroom with tears, thinking she is irritated. He never expects that Juan has contacted Claire.

"Claire, I'm sorry, there is no clues of Conan yet." Leo holds Claire in his arms, and the words of concern are more blame for himself.

In fact, the most blame now is Claire. She wants to tell Leo that all the mess is because of her, but when she thinks of Conan's safety, she has to keep the secret to herself.

"It's okay, Conan is so smart, and it's definitely going to be okay. And if it's Juan, he's also Conan's godfather, and he won't do anything to him ..."

Claire is still lying to Leo.

Leo certainly knows that Juan is Conan's godfather. He thinks that Juan is here to deal with him, but Juan doesn't call him to negotiate, which makes him wonder if the kidnapper is Juan.

Even Leo couldn't know more about Juan. It can prove how powerful Juan is in the entire business community.

Leo nods and says, "I hope so, I will send more staff, and I will find Conan at all cost."

Claire touches Leo's cheek with love, then smiles bitterly and nods.

"Go to rest, Bennett, or else you're going to collapse before we find Conan."

Leo looks at Claire's unhappy face bitterly.

It happens that Claire is looking for a chance to sneak out alone, so she agrees, and says to Leo, "I'm going home first, you can just stay here tonight in Luke's place, so that he can take care of you."

Kate notices that Claire plans to go home, and she wants to follow up, "Bennett, let me go with you, I'm worried of your safety in this case."

Claire refuses her, "I want to calm myself down. You must tell me if you have any news." After that, she walks out of the door in a panic.

Although Claire's behavior seems wired, they now all concentrate in finding Conan, so they don't care too much.

Claire walks out of Luke's villa and looks around. She notices a black car driving on the road not far away.

The car stops in front of her, and a bald-headed sunglasses man driving the car says blankly, "Ms. Bennett, please get in the car. The boss wants to see you."

It must be Juan. Claire think that Juan have already converged a lot after the last incident of the Howard Group, but does not expect him to be so rampant, even he arranges for his men to ambush near Luke Villa.

The bald head seems to read the mind of Claire, and says coldly, "Let alone the home of the Howard and Luke. The whole city is under Juan's control. I 'm afraid that you guys who want to fight the boss will probably fail."

This bald man seems very different from those guys who work for Juan in the past. He has no respect for Claire and is much ruder.

Claire ignores his mockery and just gets on the car quietly.

The bald head looks at Claire from the mirror in the car, and then sneers, "Ms. Bennett, I have been with my boss for so many years, and I have never seen him so interested in any woman. This is your blessing, I suggest you to cherish this chance, otherwise ..."

Claire interrupts coldly before the bald head finishes, "Does Juan pay your salary to talk nonsense? You'd better shut your mouth up."

The bald head doesn't expect Claire to be so bossy with gentle appearance. He squints his eyes slightly, scratches his bald head, and dismisses his mouth disdainfully.

"It's really a stubborn woman." The bald man says that again.

Claire glances at his bald head, thinking that he might be important to Juan, otherwise he would not dare to speak to her like this. Even if Juan treats her cruelly, he will not allow others to insult Claire.

The car drives in silence, and eventually reaches a villa.

Juan has many villas in the city. But Claire has never been to this one.

Claire is taken to the huge living room of the villa. At that time Juan is sitting on the huge sofa in the middle of the living room, like an ancient emperor, looking down at Claire.

"I know there would be such a day sooner or later."

After a long silence, they seem to compete who is going to speak later. But in the end, Juan says the first sentence. Claire doesn't know if it is a victory.

Claire sits in the opposite of Juan, looking away. Her eyes avoids Juan and falls on the wall behind him, and calmly says, "Yeah, your plot has succeeded, happy now?"

Juan doesn't know if he hasn't heard the anger in Claire's sentence or he wants to stimulate Claire deliberately, he nods, "Of course I'm happy, you know, my happiest thing is to get you, get everything from you."

Claire shudders. She wants to tell Juan clearly that she has no emotion of love to Juan, but Claire has said this for more than six years, and it doesn't make a difference anymore. It is clear that he wants to get Claire to be her girlfriend unreasonably.

Claire knows that her thinks don't matter at all, what is important is her choice.

"What do I need to do if I want Conan to come back to me, the situation is now under your control anyway, you have the final call, what else can I do."

Claire says in despair, but Juan responds lightly, "Oh? I want you to be voluntary, I don't want to force you, so you'd better make your own decision, but don't say I force you to make this decision. "

Despicable!

When Juan do this, he will not forget to suppress Claire mentally.

Claire wants to get angry, but she just suppresses the anger. She says with a tremble tone, "Okay, I'll stay. You let Conan go. He's still young and shouldn't be involved."
