Leo lost his memory and forgot everything about Claire, including Bryce. Now he and Bryce are just
business partners and not familiar, so when he sees Bryce, he chooses to ignore him and talks directly
with Claire, which is enough to show that he cares about it.
Although Leo just wants to speak for his friend, he hears Claire’s words and knows that the beautiful
woman is angry. He wants to say something to ease the awkward atmosphere, “Miss Bennett, don’t
say that. Last time I saw you together, I thought you two were lovers. Now it seems that I
misunderstood it.”
You keep pretending!
Claire knows what Leo is thinking. What he says sounds casual, but in fact he is secretly satirizing her
for being coquettish!
Even so, Claire doesn’t want to lose her temper. She can only say coldly, “of course you
misunderstand. Mr. Howard, please ask me next time. If there is such a misunderstanding again, we
are all not happy.”
Leo is embarrassed, too. He is satirized by a woman for the first time.
When Leo wants to say something and leaves, Tracy, who is hostile to Claire, can’t help satirizing, “how
can it be a misunderstanding? That day, you and Luke were too ambiguous and gave us a chance to
misunderstand. You blame us now?”
Tracy has always been hostile to Claire. Last time Leo got angry with her at the mall for Claire. Since
then Tracy has hated Claire in particular.
Now they see her with another man. They ask her for Luke, but she insults them.
What makes Tracy even angrier is that Leo explains to her, but she’s still domineering!
Tracy wants to take this opportunity to mock her.
After Tracy finishes, the atmosphere becomes extremely awkward. Claire and Bryce look coldly at
Tracy at the same time.
Leo’s face is not very nice and he doesn’t say a word because his woman starts the conversation.
It’s about Leo and Claire, but Tracy speaks. Bryce can’t let Claire be bullied, so he sneers, “someone is
impure but blames others. Isn’t that a thief shouting to catch a thief?”
“You!” At first Tracy satirizes Claire. She gets angry because someone helps her. She thinks of
something and suddenly laughs. She looks at Claire and satirizes, “I didn’t expect many men to speak
for you but you don’t. Are you too guilty to speak?”
No matter what Bryce says, Tracy ignores him. She stares at Claire, who is silent, and embarrasses
her.
Bryce wants to argue, but Claire gives Tracy a light glance and reaches out to Bryce. She waves him to
stop.
Seeing Claire’s gesture, Bryce also realizes that he can’t fight with a woman. He can only shut up!
Claire says coldly to Tracy, “are you finished? If so, we’ll order. We are hungry. Do you want to eat with
us?”
She means get out of here!
Leo looks terrible. He pulls Tracy, who still wants to swear, to the other side of the restaurant and sits
down.
At the same time, Leo is silently watching Claire when he doesn’t speak. He suddenly finds that the
woman’s voice is so similar to someone’s. Although they look different, they don’t make much
difference. He looks at her carefully and finds it.
Leo suddenly finds something, so he pulls Tracy, who is angry, to the other side and eats quietly.
Bryce knows what happened to them. He wants to be angry with Leo but is stopped by Claire.
Claire shakes her head and says to him helplessly, “Luke should have told you about his amnesia. It’s
really unnecessary for you to be serious with him.”
“So what?” Bryce is very disdainful, “it can’t change his nature. I advise you to leave that bastard as
soon as possible, or you will have the same fate as six years ago.”
“Well, I see. Let’s stop talking about him. Let’s eat first.” Claire says casually.
She has different ideas. Bryce told her not to be Leo’s secretary before, but she didn’t think so. Now
Bryce suddenly mentions what happened six years ago. Claire thinks about it and thinks that Bryce is
right.
Six years ago, Claire didn’t listen to Bryce, so she almost killed him. Fortunately, Bryce responded
quickly enough to avoid his death.
She had a terrible life six years ago. This time Claire feels she needs to think about Bryce’s words.
...
Tracy and Leo leave after lunch. After what happened just now, they may be embarrassed to meet
later. At least they won’t be able to say hello to each other as before.
Claire and Bryce leave the restaurant after lunch. Bryce drives Claire back to her apartment and they
chat on the way.
The atmosphere is pretty good. Claire suddenly mentions her business trip a few days later. Bryce is
silent when he hears about Leo.
Bryce suddenly stops talking. Claire can’t continue.
They are silent all the way. When they get to Claire’s apartment, Bryce says, “Claire...”
Bryce is hesitating. Claire stops opening the door. She looks back at Bryce in bewilderment and asks,
“Bryce, what do you want to say?”
“I...” Bryce looks hesitant and blushes a little. After a long time he says, “Claire, shall we be together?
We can stay away from Leo. I can take you and your son. I will treat him as my own son. We can go to
France or your favorite country to live together. I can realize all your dreams!”
