Claire is stunned, so Luke takes out his cell phone and makes a phone call. Soon the cell phone in Claire’s bag rings. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire stares at Luke. She is speechless for a moment. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Why do you know my mobile number in France?” Claire is a little pale. She no longer struggles and asks weakly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She has an American mobile number. She didn’t expect Luke to know her mobile number in France. It shows that Luke has fully known her identity and recognized her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“As long as I investigate, there is no secret I don’t know.” Luke smiles cunningly. He comes happily and puts his arm around Claire’s shoulder. “Come on, let me know why you went abroad without telling me. Do you know I miss you so much?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As Luke gnashes his teeth, he takes Claire’s key and drags her into her apartment. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As soon as they come in, Luke takes her to the sofa. Then he goes across to her and interrogates her, “tell me what happened!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke stares at Claire. She points awkwardly at the kitchen and says cautiously, “would you like some water? I’ll pour you a glass of water.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She wants to get up from the sofa. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Sit down!” Luke pulls Claire back to her seat, and at the same time he stares at her clothes and grins eerily, “I didn’t expect you to cheat me. You’ve become bold these years.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire is uncomfortable with Luke’s smile. She didn’t expect Luke to recognize her so soon. She is embarrassed. She’s not ready to face Luke as she was! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But she will face him sooner or later! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“You know what happened to Leo and me. He hurt me. Should I stay with him?” Claire relaxes and says seriously. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“But…” Luke hesitates for a moment and thinks it is be better to tell Claire what happened. “But Leo had already repented at that time. Why can’t you give him a chance? What’s more, he hasn’t touched a woman in the past six years. Since he had that car accident six years ago…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“What? Car accident?” Claire is initially dismissive of Luke’s words, but at last she is shocked. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Why did Leo have a car accident six years ago? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Why doesn’t she know anything? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire’s shocked look surprises Luke. He looks at Claire suspiciously and asks, “don’t you know that Leo had a car accident six years ago? I thought you knew he was in a car accident but insisted on leaving.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
In the end, Luke can’t go on. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He remembers that Leo almost died six years ago. It is painful. At that moment he was very afraid that his only best friend would leave him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Claire doesn’t even know it! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Car accident? Luke, tell me!” Claire asks in shock. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
In fact, when Claire hears about Leo’s car accident, she suddenly remembers the scene that he followed her car six years ago. Claire’s mood is complicated. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When Luke sees Claire like this, his dissatisfaction with her disappears. Even though he blames her, Claire didn’t know about it at the time, so he should forgive her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke sighs and decides to tell Claire what happened. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“…That’s it. When Leo finally woke up, the doctor said he had a blood clot in his head. It affected his brain nerves. What’s more, he forgot what happened to him and you. The doctor said he didn’t want to think about it, so…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke frowns at the memory. He looks sad. That memory is painful. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire is a little shocked. She looks ahead and after a long time moves the corners of her mouth. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Is this Leo’s retribution? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She is a little guilty when she hears that he almost died. But when she finishes listening, she returns to her original state. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire doesn’t feel guilty. She just thinks it might be Leo’s retribution. If he doesn’t kill her father and Bryce, he won’t be like this! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
So Claire doesn’t feel sorry for Leo at all. She won’t stop hating him for that. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
This is his retribution! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Thinking of her hate for Leo, Claire suddenly remembers that she saw Bryce today. She perks up and asks Luke urgently, “Luke, tell me what happened to Bryce? Why did I see him today?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“You saw Bryce today?” Luke is a little surprised. He looks at Claire and thinks of Bryce. He suddenly sighs and says, “there are some things you need to know sooner or later. It’s better to tell you directly!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“In fact, Bryce’s car accident six years ago was arranged by himself. His death was also arranged by him. When I knew that Leo wanted to kill him, I immediately informed him as soon as possible. It was a secret between the two of us. The others didn’t know it.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When Luke finishes, Claire frowns and asks, “no! I saw Bryce’s body in the morgue and confirmed his death. Why does he suddenly come alive? And if that’s true, why didn’t he tell me?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke sighs and says, “Bryce told me not to tell you. Just in case, the less people know about it, the better. What’s more, we didn’t have time to let you know. As for the body, we need to disguise it. You know Leo was angry. We did it to prevent Leo from killing him.” <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
