Claire pokes Conan with her finger and says, “are you performing in front of me? You have only one
purpose.”
Conan denies it, but the smile on his face has betrayed his real thoughts.
“You are too cunning. Do you really want to be like your daddy?” Claire glances at him.
Conan pouts helplessly and continues to hold Leo’s hand. He turns around and stops paying attention
to Claire. Conan doesn’t know what he is thinking.
...
When Juan hears from his men that Leo has been rescued by Bryce, he first feels inconceivable, and
then he becomes furious.
Because Bryce did it because Claire asked Bryce for help.
“Claire, well done. You let your suitor save your ex husband.” Juan sneers in the heart but appears
calm.
In fact, he’s most angry with Claire now. He can let it go, but this time she touches his bottom line. It’s
an absolute insult to Juan that she escapes from him many times.
What’s more, Juan knows that Claire doesn’t want to come back after this escape and is ready to really
go back to Leo.
That year Juan took Claire away. She doesn’t forget Leo for six years, which frustrates Juan.
“Call back all the people who are looking for Claire and Conan.” In the spacious office, Juan’s voice is
more indifferent because of its emptiness.
“Yes, President Juan. Are we going to keep tracking that hacker?” The man lowers his head and
doesn’t dare to look at Juan.
Juan seems to have a headache. Five hackers can fight that little guy. If they relax a little, they may be
defeated.
“Yes, he can’t be given the chance to act.” Juan makes a decision and asks, “how are things going with
the suppliers and design companies?”
This is what Juan is most concerned about. Since Claire is stubborn, he doesn’t mind destroying Leo
and Howard Group together. He believes that Howard Group without Leo is a fortress made of paper in
front of him.
“Everything is ready. We spent a lot of money replacing suppliers and design companies that worked
with Howard Group.” Juan’s men are puzzled by what he has done.
“We’ve heard that Howard Group is not as chaotic as it used to be. It seems that Luke has stepped into
Howard Group’s business.”
“Luke, ha ha. Don’t worry.”
Juan is only worried about Leo in the hospital bed. Luke has guts but he’s too kind. This is absolutely
the biggest taboo in business.
“But this time we spent quite a lot of money. Is it really worth it?”
Even if Juan now destroys Howard Group, he doesn’t seem to get the benefit.
“Short sighted.”
This is Juan’s comment.
“If I destroy Howard Group, do you think there are any rivals that can compete with me? I has the final
say in the whole business. Besides, I must let Leo lose to me...”
Juan almost crushes the glass of red wine in his hand, and his eyes are dark and cold. He issues the
death edict to Howard Group like a devil.
When his subordinate quits, Juan is in the dark, and Claire’s face appears in his mind. But his face is
not gentle but sad.
...
Luke sees Leo in a hurry that day and never comes back to the house. He seems to live in Howard
Group.
It seems that the company is really not safe.
A few days later, when Claire sees Luke again, she finds that he is like a different person.
It’s because Luke is pale and his chin is full of beard and his eyes are bloodshot.
“We haven’t seen each other for a few days. Why do you become like this?” Claire asks in surprise,
“what happened to the company?”
Luke smiles and replies in a hoarse voice, “I want to sleep first. Let’s talk later.”
Then Luke goes into the room and doesn’t get up until noon the next day.
“The company is in big trouble.”
Luke has been smoking cigarettes since he got up in the morning. He says to Claire with red eyes. He
still looks very haggard.
“It’s troublesome to run a company. I really admire Leo more and more now. I can’t do it.”
Luke smiles bitterly.
“Uncle Luke, what happened to the company? Is there anyone who is interfering?” Conan goes straight
to the subject.
“Yes, now the company is basically in a state of non operation, which is too horrible for Howard Group,
a big company.” Luke is hoarse and pats him on the forehead.
Claire and Conan look at each other and know that Juan is furious.
“What about the specific situation?” Claire hands Luke a cup of hot tea.
Luke waves and refuses. He takes out his cigarette and continues to smoke.
“Yes, about a third of Howard Group’s projects are now under construction. But at this time suppliers
and advertising companies all stop working with us.”
Claire jumps up and shouts, “what? It is very serious. Have all the projects stopped?”
Luke smiles bitterly and says, “yes, if the opponent is only one person, it’s too horrible.”
Conan says, “Uncle Luke, Howard Group is bound to receive liquidated damages. How can they stop
working together?”
Luke takes a deep breath and says seriously, “this is the horror of the enemy.”
Claire gets it. Juan pays the liquidated damages directly. He is too rich. The point is that Juan won’t get
immediate benefits.
Is Juan going too far? Claire is puzzled and furious.
Luke shakes his head and says, “I can’t think of anyone in this city who can have a feud with Leo and is
so powerful.”
