Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad novel Chapter 223

“OK, President Howard, I’m wrong. Please don’t do that. Let’s go back.” Claire shakes her hand held by Leo helplessly and says weakly, “we’ve been in City B for so many days. We should go back. Tomorrow I’ll book two tickets back to City A and then we’ll go back to work, OK?”

“Don’t worry,” Leo turns back and smiles at her. “We seldom travel. We’ll play for another two days and then go back.”

“President, you are too headstrong.” Claire can’t help sneering.

“What does it matter?” Leo stops and looks down at Claire. There is a flash in his eyes. Claire looks up into his eyes and seems to see the stars all over the sky.

Leo says vaguely, “as long as you are with me, I can be headstrong.”

“...”

Claire looks at Leo quietly. For a moment her heart pounds with Leo’s words. Half of his face is in shadow under the light. Claire is fascinated by the subtle beauty.

No!

Leo just thinks of her as a toy. They just do it for the time being. No! Claire never thinks they have that relationship.

All this is Leo’s wishful thinking.

Claire turns around and doesn’t look at Leo. She says unnaturally, “president, please don’t joke. I’m just your secretary. If Tracy knows about it, she will definitely cut me with a knife.”

“Ah.” Leo looks up at the sky and suddenly sighs. Then he looks at Claire and says lightly, “don’t say something unpleasant on such a good night. Let’s go back to the hotel by ship.”

With that, he holds Claire’s hand and they cross their fingers.

This way of holding hands is too ambiguous. Claire can’t get rid of him.

Leo is a bully and unreasonable bastard. He says that. He has a fiancee waiting for him at home, but he’s playing outside with other women. If she were Tracy, she would have broken up with such a man.

Claire knows Leo’s flaws so she doesn’t care about their intimacy. Whatever he does, Claire is on guard. He is just playing with her. Don’t take it seriously!

At the same time, Claire is also worried. Why didn’t she learn Taekwondo before? So she has the strength to beat Leo and not be as passive as she is now.

She has to endure his teasing her. Claire is secretly troubled. When she finds her son, she must leave Leo early!

It’s a nice day today. Claire looks at Leo’s side face on the ship and asks in a low voice, “president, don’t you really remember a boy came to the company a few days ago and said something strange?”

Leo lies to her!

Conan went to his company to find him and disappeared. Claire specifically investigated the surveillance video at the door of Leo’s company. She saw Conan enter the company and never come out again.

And she doesn’t know much about computers. Her son taught her only a few simple operations. She doesn’t learn to enter a company’s system, so she can’t investigate where Conan went after entering the company.

But Claire is sure Conan was taken away from the company. He was taken to the car and left Howard group.

Claire is sure Conan wouldn’t be taken away by people he doesn’t know because Conan only lets acquaintances and people he can trust approach him. No one else can get close to him. He learns how to defend himself. He really bought a watch like Conan did with poison needles in it.

Once Conan went out to play and Claire wanted to beat him when she found out. Conan took it out. To reassure Claire, he used a fresh apple as a demonstration. The needle in his watch bounced out and hit the apple exactly in the middle. In less than a minute, the apple turned black.

From then on, Claire rarely worries that Conan will be captured by bad people. Claire believes that Conan was taken by Leo.

But now Leo doesn’t admit it! He lies to her!
