Claire is unbuttoned. Her chest almost comes out!
“What happened?” Leo’s voice is hoarse. He seems to be suppressing something. His anger is chilling.
He just got a call from Luke before he rushed over. He left the important party. But he has no idea what has happened before!
Now Luke has calmed down. He says calmly, “she’s OK. She is drugged so she’s sleeping now. She will soon wake up.”
Claire is pregnant now. Pregnant women cannot take medicine. How can he drug her? What’s worse, he doesn’t know what medicine it is and how much it is!
Bastard!
Leo pounds the wall. His eyes are filled with anger. He would like to rush out and kill ray!
Luke sighs as if it wasn’t him who just stormed in. He comforts Leo, “don’t be angry. Claire is fine.”
Hearing this, Leo suppresses his anger. He glances at Luke and says sincerely, “thank you. If you didn’t inform me in time, I would...”
If Luke doesn’t tell Leo, it doesn’t seem to make a difference. Luke has stopped Ray’s behavior. Leo is just late.
He didn’t expect that he is out of duty!
Leo is deeply frustrated. He doesn’t go on. His thanks already contain a lot of meaning.
“I just do my duty. What’s more, I have arranged people everywhere recently to investigate the little wild cat. It’s just happened to be seen by my people today.” Luke doesn’t want to tell Leo that he has a special guard for Claire. He is afraid that Leo might misunderstand him.
“Have you found out who the little wild cat is?”
Leo says and ties Claire. Luke turns his head away.
Luke says seriously, “not yet. I’ve already investigated it. I believe that in a few days, the truth will come to light. I’ll let you know then.”
“Really?” Leo buttons Claire and looks at Luke and asks seriously, “do you mean you already know who it is?”
Leo is as sensitive as ever.
Even though Luke has guessed who it is, he says on the surface, “yes, I know who it is, but now I can’t tell you. I said I will show you the evidence.”
Luke doesn’t want to say it, so Leo doesn’t force him. He nods and says, “well, investigate as soon as possible and tell me the result.”
Luke nods. They stop talking. The ward is quiet.
“Why are you so interested in the little wild cat?” Luke suddenly asks, “I remember you believed that the little wild cat was Emma not long ago. Now you believe that Emma is not the one you are looking for?”
Hearing this, Leo just looks at Claire sleeping quietly. His eyes are soft, and he says absently to Luke, “I just remember what someone said. What I believe is not necessarily right. Sometimes it’s good to listen to other people’s opinions.”
Thinking of the irresponsible nanny last night, Leo says indifferently, “I let her go back. I’ll take care of you later.”
Claire knows something happened when she hears that. Michelle just spent a day with her. Claire likes the nanny. She is as kind to her as the aunt next door.
Claire is afraid that Leo is not happy with Michelle. She looks into Leo’s eyes and asks, “why do you want her back? What happened?”
“What can happen?” Leo asks. He looks at Claire seriously and says, “I want to see you so I take care of you myself. Come on, darling, you’d better drink the porridge quickly.”
Leo’s attitude convinces Claire that something has happened. But no matter how she asks, Leo doesn’t tell her.
Claire is upset. Bryce is an example. Claire can’t believe Leo. He says it is ok, then something must have happened.
Leo doesn’t want to tell Claire because he doesn’t want to leave her bad memories. She doesn’t need to worry about these things. She just needs to take care of herself.
But Claire is stubborn. She stops eating porridge and asks Leo what happened.
Leo has a bad temper. They are about to fight when Leo interrupts her, “I remember I have something to do. I have to go.”
He gets up and leaves.
