Leo is pushed out by Claire. Claire closes the door before he can speak.
“...” Leo is speechless.
Claire is relieved after sending Leo away. She tries to raise a happy smile and walks towards the room.
After changing her clothes, Claire and Kate go out for breakfast.
During the whole process, looking at her best friend, Claire has been hesitant to tell Kate that Leo likes
her.
If she says it, will she be too shocked to eat? Kate may not believe Leo likes her. After all, Kate’s
impression of Leo has always been bad and she seldom associates with Leo who has lost her memory.
She has no idea how much Leo has changed.
But if she doesn’t say it, she doesn’t know how to deal with Leo. If she tells Kate, Kate can give her
ideas on how to end her strange relationship with Leo.
Claire has been thinking so she is absent-minded when she is eating.
“What are you thinking?” Kate is Claire’s good friend for more than ten years. She sees Claire thinking
at a glance.
Claire hesitates for a moment and decides to tell Kate about it. She wants to know what Kate thinks of
the ambiguous relationship. “I want to say something to you, but you have to promise that before I
finish, you have to keep calm and give me a rational view, OK?”
“Come on.” Kate says impatiently.
Claire puts down her spoon. She calms down and says, “Leo said he likes me.”
Kate squirts the porridge out of her mouth. Fortunately, Claire is prepared. She dodges so the porridge
doesn’t spray on her.
Claire frowns and says, “didn’t you say you wouldn’t get excited?”
“No...” Kate is probably choked. She pats her chest and calms down. She looks at Claire incredulously
and asks, “what did you just say? Leo said he likes you? Is it the Leo this morning?”
“Keep it down!”
Kate is so excited that her voice is loud. Several guests in the breakfast shop look at them at once.
Claire is so ashamed that she wants to get into a hole in the ground.
She should have told Kate at her home. Kate is a straightforward woman. She’ll let everyone around
know about it.
“Really? Does Leo really say he likes you?” Kate also realizes that her voice is too loud. She leans
forward and asks incredulously.
“It’s true.” Claire nods seriously.
Claire admits, and Kate looks straight ahead. “Oh my God...”
“Let me calm down. I need time to accept the terrible news.”
With that, Kate sits up straight and coughs. She stares at the food on the table in shock.
About two minutes later, Kate makes a sound. Her expression returns to normal. She looks at Claire
and says seriously, “Claire, I think you’re in trouble.”
What rubbish.
Claire can’t help but look at her and say seriously, “what do you mean?”
“In short, whether Leo likes you or not, you’re in trouble. Claire, you have to quit soon. If you don’t have
money, I’ll keep you for life.” Kate waves and says it seriously.
“Kate, what are you talking about?” Claire looks at Kate speechlessly. “I want you to help me figure out
how to deal with Leo.”
“I asked you to resign. That’s what I think!” Kate’s face is grim. “Leo is a jerk. He has no humanity. Now
he says he likes you. Why does he like you? Because you’re beautiful?”
“I think he must have a plot, so he said it to you on purpose. What’s more, he has a fiancee. This kind
of man is the worst. He can abandon his fiancee for you and abandon you for other women! Claire, I
advise you to leave him early. That’s how I advised you that year!”
“But I haven’t found my son yet. I don’t want to leave Leo now. If I leave, I can’t find my son.” She
agrees with Kate and knows she is right, but she can’t leave now. She has her own concerns.
Kate frowns at Claire’s words. She thinks for a while and can’t help thinking of Luke.
At the thought of the man, Kate says to Claire cheerfully, “you can ask Luke for help. He’s your friend
and Leo’s good friend. With his help, you can leave!”
How could it be so simple? She has asked Luke to help. If Luke can get information from Leo, he will
have been able to get it for her.
But this time Leo is cunning and unwilling to reveal anything about Conan. Even his friend Luke knows
nothing about it.
Claire shakes her head and says wearily, “no, I’ve asked Luke for help. It doesn’t work at all. I need to
do it myself.”
Kate freezes for a moment at Claire’s words. Then she reacts and says in disappointment, “that man is
so weak. He doesn’t look like a really good man.”
“Luke’s not like that.” Claire explains to Kate helplessly. All of a sudden she finds out that she is off
topic. She says seriously, “how should I deal with Leo? Now he is so kind to me that I can’t adapt at all,
but I can’t refuse him. As soon as I refuse, he will pester me even more. I can’t get rid of him.”
“I see.” Kate nods thoughtfully and is silent for a moment. She laughs as if thinking of something. “It’s
good that he’s good to you. You don’t suffer. As long as he doesn’t humiliate you, I don’t care.”
