“Remember, Claire, no matter what happens, I’ll always be by your side. You’ll never be alone.”
Claire is shocked.
Bryce raises his index finger and stresses again, “forever.”
Bryce doesn’t smile, but his eyes are tender and resolute that Claire can’t bear.
Claire feels guilty that Bryce helps and loves her, but she knows that if she refuses Bryce, he will feel
worse.
It’s a complicated feeling.
Claire lowers her head subconsciously and can’t look directly at Bryce’s affection. She has to duck for a
while.
Seeing Claire’s reaction, Bryce gives a wry smile.
Over the years, Bryce has been single. It’s enough to show his love for Claire.
In order to stay with Claire and take care of her, they are brothers and sisters. Claire regards Bryce as
her brother, but Bryce is not satisfied with it.
“Thank you.”
After a long silence, Claire finally raises her head. Her bright eyes sparkle a little.
Bryce’s Adam’s Apple moves and his expression is stiff.
Claire is a little embarrassed. She thinks Bryce doesn’t hear it, so she goes on, “thank you, Bryce.”
Bryce puts out the smoke that is burning to his finger and stands up carelessly.
He doesn’t respond, and a warm smile gradually appears on his face.
“Anyway, Claire, I won’t give up on you. Over the years, I believe you have understood my mind,
haven’t you?”
Claire also stands up and holds her fingers and doesn’t know how to respond to Bryce’s direct
question.
What should she say? What a headache.
Bryce doesn’t wait for Claire’s answer. He pats Claire on the shoulder and turns away.
The faint smell of perfume finally disappears. Claire, like a child who has done wrong, looks at Bryce’s
back and feels guilty.
But she already knows that Bryce has actually agreed to her request.
In this way, she can get the news of Leo soon.
When she thinks about it, she feels relieved and complains about her selfishness.
Claire walks out of the cafe and lowers the hat Conan has chosen for her yesterday to cover her face.
She’s out on her own. If Juan’s people see her, she’ll be arrested again and put under house arrest.
Claire thinks that the men around her are unreasonable and domineering. But for Luke and Bryce, she
will have been crazy.
After all, Claire’s biggest hobby is freedom.
She was under house arrest and escaped. Claire doesn’t want to go straight back to Luke’s house right
now. She wanders aimlessly.
When she goes to a shopping mall, she sees a familiar figure at the door.
Claire raises the brim of her hat and sees clearly that it was Tracy. There are several servants behind
her and they have a lot of bags. She seems to have just shopped.
Claire rushes up to Tracy and asks, “where is Leo now?”
Tracy takes off her dark sunglasses and looks at Claire sarcastically and says, “little bitch, why aren’t
you with the man who saved you? What are you doing here?”
Claire ignores her. She takes a deep breath and asks again, “where’s Leo?”
Tracy bursts out laughing and yells, “why should I tell you where my fiance is?”
Claire is speechless.
Tracy goes on shouting, “look, this little bitch seduced my husband and shows off in front of me. Do you
think it’s funny?”
She has a sharp voice. All of a sudden, a large group of people are attracted to watch the scene. They
all point at Claire and whisper.
Claire’s white face turns red all of a sudden, but soon she recovers her composure. Claire retorts, “your
fiance is ill, but are you in the mood to shop?”
People are aiming at Tracy.
“This is my family business. It’s none of your business.”
Claire thinks she can’t give in to this woman. So she approaches Tracy and stares at her.
Tracy takes a step back subconsciously and is obviously scared.
Claire shouts, “you’d better tell me where Leo is, or I’ll torture you.”
Claire has always been timid in Tracy’s mind, but now she is so arrogant. Why?
Claire’s been helped.
The more Tracy thinks about it, the more scared she is and she backs away in front of Claire.
“If you piss me off, I’m sure I’ll ruin your reputation. If you don’t believe it, you can try.”
Now Juan and Bryce and her talented son are helping Claire. How could she be afraid of Tracy?
Tracy’s face is pale and her lips tremble. But she doesn’t want to lose to Claire in front of the crowd.
“Don’t forget that Leo is in my hands. If you go too far, you may never know his whereabouts.”
Tracy straightens his chest and smiles viciously.
She’s threatening!
Claire finally can’t contain her anger. She steps forward and slaps Tracy in the face without hesitation.
Tracy freezes. She moves the corners of her mouth and shriekes, “you will pay for it...”
Before she finishes, Claire slaps her face again and says in a cold voice, “I didn’t let that man kill you
last time, but if you go too far, I might change my mind.”
Claire’s like a different person. The onlookers all feel a little uncomfortable.
At this time, Tracy, who is slapped twice in a row, is stunned. Then she slowly raises her head and
laughs.
It turns out Claire is just bluffing.
When Claire mentions the mysterious man, Tracy also remembers that before she moved Leo, a
mysterious man offered her the plot.
Now Tracy knows that the two mysterious people are the same person, the man who saved Claire.
He seems to want Claire. Two men fight but I get the benefit.
Tracy smiles smugly.
Tracy suddenly sneers and says, “Claire, do you think that mysterious man will really help you find
Leo? In fact, I wouldn’t have thought of transferring Leo without his warning...”
