Leo asks indifferently, "Are you confident?"

"That's right," Ashley says, looking at Leo with a smile. "It's a great achievement that I can make Leo helpless to me."

Leo snorts softly and turns to look elsewhere and says, "Today, I'm warning you to be honest. Don't forget that you still have an accomplice in my hand."

Ashley doesn't care Leo's words at all. Instead, she sneers and says, "To be honest, because your wife is in my hand."

"That is to say, do you have any thoughts now?"

"What does it mean to have, what does it mean not to have?" Ashley looks directly at Leo and says, "My identity makes me do what I should do, and I won't change because of words from you."

"As I know, you won't let go easily."

"Why should I let go? How can I let go of the promise that Leo gave me before I get it?" Raising her chin, Ashley squints and says quietly, "Leo, the contest between us is just beginning."

Looking directly at the Ashley's eyes, Leo leans down slowly, with murderous spirit in his eyes.

"Those who dare to provoke m will not live in this world!"

"Is that right? I'm honored to be the first."

"Very good!" Leo's fierce tone is gloomy, showing murderous spirit warning, "You don't want to use Claire, and I will never allow you to hurt her."

"She is my friend and my life preserver. How can I sacrifice to hurt her. It's better to care about yourself than others."

Ashley is not afraid of the warning from Leo. She looks back at him with a smile. She has the same murderous spirit in her eyes.

Leo's coming today is to beat Ashley, to make her behave herself and not to have any thoughts.

But after communication, he finds that Ashley has never given up. He is afraid she is planning a bigger situation in her mind.

It's unwise to leave such a woman beside Claire.

Seeing Leo eyes flash murderous, Ashley shows complacent smile.

...

The negotiation breaks up unhappily. Leo leaves Ashley's room and is ready to start work and wipe out Ashley without trace.

It's so easy to let a person die quietly by means of Leo.

But if something happened to Ashley. The first people Claire suspected will be Leo.

In order not to aggravate the contradiction between them, Leo must make a good plan to kill Ashley and make Claire not doubt him.

Here, Leo plans, but Ashley has begun to implement the plan.

...

After a day's play, Claire goes to Ashley's room with a blush on her face.

"Ashley, I'm back. It's a nice day outside today. You should go shopping, too. I think your injury is better. I'll take you for a walk in two days."

Claire says as she puts the fresh flowers in the vase.

The voice falls and the room is quiet. No one responds to Claire.

Turning around doubtfully, Claire looks at the Ashley on the bed and asks, "Ashley, are you asleep?"

Ashley still doesn't respond.

"Why don't you cover the quilt, what if you catch a cold."

Claire murmurs, pulling the quilt for Ashley.

But when Claire reaches for the quilt, her pupils widens instantly.

She sees Ashley lying pale on the bed. Her body curls up slightly, and her clothes on her chest are red with blood. she seems to die.

"God!"

Claire turns around and runs out of the room. She calls the doctor.

After emergency treatment, Ashley is not life-threatening. But the wound splits again, so the difficulty of recovery increases.

Looking at the sleepy Ashley on the bed, Claire frowns and asks, "Well done, how could the wound crack?"

"It should have been hit, causing the wound to rupture."

Hit?

Although Ashley hasn't recovered completely, but she can already take care of herself, staying in the room, how can she hit the wound? Unless...

It seems that Claire thinks about something.

Biting her lips, Claire suddenly turns around and runs out of the room.

At that time, Leo is discussing the details of the plan with his subordinates. When he is talking about the key point, he suddenly hears the voice of opening the door.

Looking up at the past, he sees Claire standing there panting, looking at himself badly.

Although he doesn't know what happened, he can see the situation from Claire's expression.

"End the meeting first."

The subordinates pack up their papers and leave. Only Claire and Leo are left in the room.

"Do you have a good time today?"

"Happy?" Claire snorts and says, "How can I be happy when this happens at home?"

"What happened?"

"Leo, I only ask one question." Claire doesn't answer Leo's question, but asks, "Have you looked for Ashley today?"

Sure enough, it's about that woman.

Leo's eyes flash, and he nods to say, "Yes."

"It's you!"

Claire's disappointed look hurts Leo's heart and makes him hold his fist involuntarily.

"Before you convict me, do you want to tell me what happened?"

"What are you pretending to be!" Claire growls angrily, "I know you hate Ashley, but can't you just let her go for my sake? She almost died in your hand once. Don't you have to kill her to get angry!"

Leo holds back his anger and asks, "Ashley, what's wrong with her!"

"Her wound cracked and almost died of bleeding! Are you disappointed to know that she is not dead?"

"So, are you suspecting that I've done something?"

"Isn't it?"

Leo raises his mouth, but his smile is bleak.

Seeing his appearance, Claire feels a little pain in the bottom of her heart.

But thinking of Ashley's dying appearance, Claire says again.

"Leo, how can you let the Ashley go?"

"The trust between us is so fragile that an outsider can destroy it?"

In the face of Leo's questions, Claire drops her eyes.

"I would like to believe you, too, but what you have done is not enough for me to believe."

The smile on his lips deepens. Leo shakes his head and says, "I only know today that I am such a terrible person in your heart."

"I don't want to hear what you say, and I just want to see what you do."

With his hands in his pants pocket, Leo looks free and easy, but his eyes are full of wounds. He says, "Yes, I am not a good man. It's normal for you to think of me like this."
