“Claire?” Leo freezes, but he doesn’t care. He is scolded as soon as he wakes up, so he becomes
unhappy. His attitude to anyone is cold except Claire. He says sarcastically, “who are you? Do I know
you?”
“You!” Kate is too angry to speak. She thinks of Leo’s amnesia. When she saw Leo just now, she was
so excited and thought he forced Claire and humiliated her as before!
Kate is still celebrating that she’s lucky today, or she doesn’t know her good friend has been bullied!
When Kate thinks of Leo’s amnesia, she freezes, but when she sees Leo’s apathy and disdain, she is
angry.
Kate says bluntly, “Leo! You lost your memory...”
“Kate!” Claire interrupts Kate when she hears that she wants to talk about what happened six years
ago. Claire forces Kate into her room when Leo is confused.
Claire closes the door and blames Kate seriously. “You were impulsive! You shouldn’t say he lost his
memory. If you said it, he would doubt why you knew so much, and then both of us would be exposed!
In this way, he will not let me go!”
“Don’t talk to me about that!” Kate knows she almost said the wrong thing, but she is clear headed. She
glares at Claire angrily and asks her, “to be honest, why does Leo appear in your home? Did he force
you?”
Claire takes a deep breath and tries to calm down. She says seriously to Kate, “it’s not what you think!
In fact, yesterday we worked late and Leo was too tired. It happened that my apartment was close to
the company, so Leo proposed to stay in my house for one night. We are innocent. He didn’t force me!”
When Kate hears Claire, though she believes it, she can’t help shouting, “I think he has that idea for
you! There are many hotels around here. Why didn’t he stay in a hotel but stay in your kennel all
night?”
Kate says her house is a kennel.
Claire wants to argue, but now they can’t argue. She has to bear it and explain to Kate patiently. “He
had a fever then. If he stayed in the hotel, I was afraid no one would know that he had a fever at night,
so I agreed to let him stay in my house for one night. Nothing happened to us. You have to believe me!”
Claire cheats Kate to get rid of her misunderstanding. Leo’s discomfort is completely made up by her!
But she can only do that. If she doesn’t cheat Kate, she believes Kate will quarrel with Leo again. She
doesn’t want to make trouble. Life like that is a real hassle.
So Claire would rather cheat Kate than see her lose her temper.
After listening to Claire, Kate believes her completely, but she can’t help but say, “you are so kind.
Aren’t you afraid? You can’t do that later! Next time no matter what he says, even if he is dying of
illness, you can’t take care of him! Just let him die in the street. There will be one less villain in the
world!”
“OK, I see. I swear I’ll never do that again! Don’t be angry.” Claire shakes Kate’s shoulder helplessly
and flatters her.
Kate snorts and reluctantly says, “I spare you this time. You can bring anyone to your house except
Leo. Don’t you know who he is?”
Claire interrupts when she hears that Kate still wants to teach her a lesson. She opens the door and
says, “OK, please forgive me. I can’t stand it.”
Claire whispers, “you can’t talk nonsense when you see Leo later. Give me some time. I’ll get rid of him
and then we’ll have breakfast, OK?”
At Claire’s flattering tone, Kate really lets her go this time. She stops and stands in front of Claire’s
room and says unhappily, “I won’t go out with you. I’m afraid I can’t help talking nonsense when I see
Leo. Hurry up. I’ll wait for you in your room.”
“Thank you darling!” Claire kisses Kate gratefully, but Kate pretends to dislike her.
Claire walks to the living room laughing.
When Claire comes to the living room, she stops laughing. She sees Leo dressed and standing by the
sofa wearing a tie.
Claire leans against the wall and looks at Leo quietly. She thinks that as long as a person is handsome,
no matter what he does, he will look handsome.
Leo gets dressed and sees Claire. He looks at her naturally and asks, “have you appeased your
friend?”
“Yes.” Claire feels a little guilty when she sees Leo doesn’t care. She thinks Leo will ask her who Kate
is and why she says that to him.
Claire is grateful for Leo’s tolerance for the first time. She approaches Leo and says to Leo as gently as
she can, “president, do you want to go to work first? My friend and I have something to do. I may be
going to the company later.”
“Won’t you have breakfast with me?” Leo raises her eyebrows and looks at Claire.
“No.” Claire refuses without thinking. She says sarcastically. “President, you are not a child. Do you
need someone to eat breakfast with you?”
Leo smiles and stares at Claire’s pink lips. He says meaningfully, “don’t you know if I’m a child?”
“Stop,” Kate is still in the room so Claire isn’t in the mood to play with him. She pushes Leo out and
says, “hurry up. I’ll go to work later.”
