The car stops outside Leo’s villa. Claire gets out of the car and looks up at the luxurious villa like a
palace without speaking.
Leo takes her hand and whispers, “this is really your home from now on, if it used to be a cage for you.”
Leo’s tone is filled with guilt and joy of making up with Claire.
They walk through the garden together. The front door suddenly opens. Conan stands at the door and
cries happily, “Daddy, Mommy, welcome home.”
Claire is shocked. It’s not just because of Conan’s sudden appearance here, but also because of
Conan’s dress.
He is wearing a Christmas red hat and colorful clothes. He has two roses in one hand and a handful of
petals in the other.
As Conan speaks, he jumps up and throws the flowers in the sky. He looks a little funny, which doesn’t
match his identity as a genius.
Claire and Leo are both amused by Conan.
“Why are you here? Did you go over the wall?” Claire says seriously.
Conan doesn’t explain. He and Leo look at each other and laugh.
“I arranged Conan to move here. He was waiting for us last night, but you said you wanted to see the
moon, so Conan was probably bored at home and dressed like this.”
Conan pouts and says, “I’m not bored. I want Mommy to be happier when she comes home. And it’s
my home now. Do I have to climb over the wall to get in?”
It seems to make sense. Claire pinches Conan’s little face and says, “you two are so close.”
Leo picks up Conan. They are really like a couple of tacit combinations.
Conan suddenly smiles and says, “Mommy, did you and Daddy do something bad last night?”
“Maybe Mommy did something bad to Daddy.” Leo answers Conan’s question.
Claire ignores them and walks into the villa.
It’s a familiar scene. A huge sparkling crystal lamp, beautiful printed floor to ceiling windows and
spotless floor.
But when she comes here again, Claire finally makes the place her home. Claire sighs.
Leo whispers, “I fired the maids, but the environment doesn’t change. Maybe you’ll get used to it.”
Claire does not answer Leo, but looks around quietly. Leo and she used to fight here. The shadows
seem to remain in the air.
But Claire’s mood is not affected at all. She just feels that fate is unpredictable.
She walks slowly from the living room to the second floor. Every step she takes, she turns back and
smiles at them. Leo and Conan follow her and act like two bodyguards behind the princess.
Claire goes to the second floor. She stands outside the door of her former room and opens it gently.
The bedroom is no different than when she left. Leo explains, “I actually lost my memory at that time
and didn’t know about it. I’ve sorted it out by memory in the past half month. Do you think it’s the same
as when you left?”
Claire smiles and says, “it doesn’t matter. It’s important that we are together.”
The three of them enter the room together. Leo opens the door of the huge closet. There are many
clothes Claire used to wear.
“I kept them for you. If you’re afraid of thinking about bad things, you can throw them away.” Leo
consults Claire.
Claire smiles and says, “it’s OK. They remind me of the bad things you’ve done before. If you offend
me later...”
Leo smiles and says to Conan, “your mommy is too bad.”
“Daddy, maybe you can’t do anything wrong, or I’m too embarrassed to help you,” Conan says.
Leo smiles and nods, “but these things can be put here. No one will live here after all.”
Claire says, “won’t I live here?”
Leo frowns and says, "what? Of course you have to sleep in the same room as me. Are you going to
run away? We haven’t finished last night.”
Claire and Leo used to sleep in different rooms, but that won’t happen in the future.
Claire says discontentedly, “you’re a father. You can’t say that in front of your son.”
Leo glances at Conan casually and says, “he’s our son. Don’t worry. Your mommy is too shy.”
Conan laughs and says, “yes.”
...
They loiter in the villa. Then the maid prepars the afternoon tea. They sit together and talk.
Leo calls the maids and tells them that Claire is the hostess and Conan is his son.
The maids are surprised. They don’t understand why Leo suddenly has a wife and son. Claire had
been here before, but at that time she didn’t have such a noble status.
The maids envy Claire and leave. Claire smiles and says, “I finally become the hostess here. If that
maid is still here, I must piss her off.”
Claire is joking. Leo takes a sip of coffee and says, “although there are maids, I want to taste your
cooking in the future. I want to have my wife’s cooking at home.”
Claire nods and says, “you’re lucky. Conan only likes my cooking. I don’t have time to cook to take care
of you. Conan may not be full. I will cook these days.”
Conan agrees, “Mommy, you know me.”
Leo hears Conan and suddenly remembers what he did for the company and his computer talent. So
he asks, “Conan, are you interested in work? Do you want me to arrange a position for you to play?”
