Claire Bennett is infected by Ling Howard’s sunshine. She says, “If only your brother could be so
outgoing.”
They laugh at the same time. Although they have not known each other for a long time, they have a
good relationship.
On the second floor of the villa, Leo Howard opens the curtains and looks at Claire Bennett who is
laughing happily. He has never seen Claire Bennett laugh so happily.
Now she is talking and laughing with his brother, which makes Leo Howard very upset. Although Claire
Bennett is a dirty woman, she belongs to him.
His eyes become fierce.
Leo Howard closes the curtains and goes downstairs. He bluntly breaks into the conversation between
Ling Howard and Claire Bennett. He frowns at Claire Bennett and murmurs, “It’s late. You should go to
bed.”
Claire Bennett doesn’t know what happened to Leo Howard. She sleeps in separate rooms with Leo
Howard and Leo Howard never cares about her bedtime. Today he asks for it.
Claire Bennett is about to retort but Leo Howard turns to Ling Howard and says, “You must be tired just
after you get home. Go and have a rest. I’ve already had your room cleaned up!”
Ling Howard looks puzzled at Leo Howard and Claire Bennett. He feels strange but does not speak. He
nods.
Leo Howard says a few words and pulls Claire Bennett into the room.
“What are you going to do?” When Claire Bennett enters the room, she yells, “why do you want to
control everything?”
Claire Bennett has no scruples. She doesn’t have to disguise herself in front of Ling Howard. She
throws Leo Howard’s hand aside. “You are a control freak, neurotic, scum.”
“Claire Bennett, you were flirting with Ling Howard just now,” Leo Howard sneers. What do you think I
am?”
Claire Bennett turns to walk out of the room. “You’re neurotic.”
“You want to leave?”
Leo Howard suddenly grabs Claire Bennett’s hand and brutally hits her against the wall. He puts his
arms on the wall and glares at her. He says grimly, “You are so dirty. Can’t you stand loneliness when
you see a man? You seduced my brother. How lewd are you?”
Claire Bennett clenches her teeth and turns her head in resentment. “Do you think I’m the same as
you?” Claire Bennett sneers.
Leo Howard snorts and presses his whole body against Claire Bennett’s trembling body, making it
difficult for her to move.
Claire Bennett shouts. Her delicate body explodes with tremendous force to push Leo Howard away.
“Ling Howard and I were just talking normally,” she roars.
Leo Howard doesn’t expect Claire Bennett to push him. His eyes are fierce in a flash. He presses
Claire Bennett’s shoulder and says angrily, “You have to remember your position. Dare you resist me?
You want to die...”
Before Leo Howard finishes, Claire Bennett suddenly turns her head and bites Leo Howard hard on the
hand that holds her shoulder.
Claire Bennett feels only a slight muffling noise. Leo Howard’s slender, cold hand is bitten by her teeth.
Warm blood flows from between her lips and teeth.
Leo Howard has not been treated like that. Let alone she is a lewd woman. By this time he is furious
and pushes Claire Bennett against the wall.
Claire Bennett feels a bump on her back and she is cold and almost faints. She looks up and finds Leo
Howard’s broad palm ready to hit her in the face.
“Slave, you want to die!” Leo Howard’s voice is cold and violent.
Claire Bennett feels that Leo Howard’s palm is fierce. She shrinks back with her eyes closed but behind
her is a cold wall.
Claire Bennett is afraid but Leo Howard’s hand is hovering in mid-air. It trembles but does not fall.
She looks up and finds Ling Howard beside her. He grabs Leo Howard’s wrist. They seem to be
competing. Their wrists are shaking at the same time.
Ling Howard suppresses his face but still smiles with great effort, “Brother, if something happens, you
can communicate well and not beat people.”
Leo Howard can’t get rid of Ling Howard’s hand. He just lets go and says to Ling Howard indifferently,
“This is family matter. Don’t worry about it.”
Ling Howard listens to Leo Howard and the cheeks that are always full of smiles suddenly drop cold.
“Elder brother, am I not a family member?”
Leo Howard frowns and says to Ling Howard, “It’s a matter between us. Ling, you don’t know anything.
Do you know who this woman is, she...”
“I know.” Ling Howard blinks and his eyes look clean.
Leo Howard takes a cold look at Leo Howard and Claire Bennett.
Ling Howard says, “Whoever she is and whoever her mother is. Now she’s my sister-in-law. You must
have misunderstood something before. Your suspicious nature has not changed at all.”
Ling Howard sees that Leo Howard is silent so he calls out the maid loudly and asks her to deal with
Leo Howard’s wound. Claire Bennett also flees.
“Leo Howard is an asshole. I will get revenge one day!”
Claire Bennett is angry.
...
On the second morning, Claire Bennett wakes up in a nightmare.
She opens her eyes suddenly. A smiling face looks down at her and releases the hand that holds her
nose.
Claire Bennett sees that the man is Ling Howard and pulls the quilt up in horror. She wonders, “Why
are you here?”
“I can’t wake you up so I have to pinch your nose,” says Lin Howard, smiling with his eyes narrow.
Ling Howard sits on Claire Bennett’s bed. “Get up quickly. Today is the opening ceremony.”
Claire Bennett looks at him and says, “How can I get up if you don’t go out?”
Ling Howard immediately claps his head and walks out in a swing. He comes to the door and stops
suddenly. He scratches his head with his hands and his back to Claire Bennett. He asks, “Why don’t
you sleep with him in the same room?”
Why not sleep with Leo Howard...
Claire Bennett is stunned. She and Leo Howard are not a normal couple at all. He married her just to
torture her. But Claire Bennett still doesn’t want to let Ling Howard know.
After a while, she looks at the back of Ling Howard and says, “I, I like to talk in my sleep. I am afraid of
disturbing his sleep, so we...”
“Oh, that’s what it is!” Ling Howard smiles as if he suddenly knows something. He goes out without
turning his head and there is a glimmer of cunning in his eyes.
