Chapter 232 I was forced by you
Leo’s voice is low, magnetic and seductive, and Claire almost wants to nod and promise Leo.
However, she must not!
At this critical moment, Claire remembers the last time she saw her father. At that time her father was in poor health and needed to be hospitalized. Then Jade moved her father to another hospital without her knowledge. She never saw her father again. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
Claire thinks of her father and his death notice. Leo’s concealment and betrayal, as well as the fact that he killed her father, hit Claire hard.
She can’t promise Leo. They are enemies! Even if she promises him, Leo will still insult her as before after recovering his memory. Claire doesn’t want it!
“No!” Claire shoves Leo away. Leo is unprepared and is pushed to the ground by Claire. Claire is emotional. There is hate in her eyes. “I don’t want to be with you even if I die!”
“Claire…” Leo sits on the ground and stares at Claire. He can’t accept Claire’s excitement for a moment.
He knows Claire might turn him down, but he didn’t expect Claire to be so excited. There is even hatred in her eyes.
What happened to her?
Claire is emotional and delirious. She thinks of what happened six years ago. In her mind, Leo insulted her and killed her father.
What happened six years ago leaves Claire with a deep scar. Now it’s ripped open and bleeding. She can’t accept it for a moment.
She looks ahead in a daze. Gradually she curls up her legs and hugs herself. Her eyes are unfocused and looking somewhere.
Claire’s battered look hurts Leo’s heart. He gets up from the ground and sits on the sofa. He thinks for a moment and holds Claire in his arms. He puts his head on her head painfully.
This time Claire doesn’t push Leo away. Maybe the past is too painful, so she shivers a little. She is so cold from foot to body that she can’t help holding Leo. She puts her face close to Leo’s arms and tears fall from the corners of her eyes.
Leo feels the moisture in his arms and holds Claire harder and tries to make her feel warm.
At the same time, Leo is skeptical. What did he say just now that makes Claire so excited? Doesn’t he know Claire enough?
He seems to need to investigate this woman.
…
They hug for nearly half an hour. Claire gradually comes out of her memory. She calms down and regains her mind. She finds herself in Leo’s arms.
Claire thinks of Leo’s words and her fierce reaction. She thinks Leo will doubt her.
Who will have such an abnormal reaction when they are liked? But Leo lost his memory so he may not be able to find out.
Claire thinks uneasily about how to deal with Leo. He said he likes her. Claire can’t accept the reality and feels it is troublesome.
Bryce likes her. Juan likes her. Leo likes her this time, too. Should she check her luck about love today?
Leo, do you know how much impact your words have on me?
Claire thinks helplessly. Finally she nudges Leo and whispers, “president...”
She finally has a reaction. Leo’s sad heart suddenly relaxes. He holds Claire’s face and watches her carefully. He asks with concern, “are you ok?”
Claire looks at the gentle Leo and feels a headache. She coughs and takes Leo’s hand off. She says in a euphemism, “president, we can’t be together. Don’t do that.”
Claire’s words stun Leo. He looks at Claire in confusion and asks, “why?”
“Because...” Claire thinks about it and decides to be honest, “because you’re my boss. What’s more, I don’t have that feeling for you at all. I am an ordinary woman. I don’t deserve a good man like you. Do you know what I mean?”
“No,” Leo frowns and says, “what you say doesn’t matter. If you don’t want to have an office romance, you can stay away from work. You can stay at home and I’ll raise you. You say we don’t match. Claire, you said people are free now. People are free to choose whom to marry.”
Leo says a lot, but Claire doesn’t think he says the point. She stares at Leo and says rightfully, “but I don’t like you. This is the most important!”
“You don’t like me?” Leo suddenly puts his hand behind Claire’s neck. He bows his head and kisses Claire’s lips. He gives Claire a soft kiss.
It isn’t until Claire lies powerless on him that Leo smiles and says, “you enjoy it. There’s no way you don’t like me!”
Claire retorts loudly, “you force me. If I were as strong as you, I would not be bullied by you.”
“But...” Leo looks at Claire meaningfully and makes her feel guilty. Leo smiles and says, “even if I force you, why do you seem to enjoy it?”
Leo says it deliberately slowly. Claire’s heart is itchy. She blushes and says angrily, “I won’t promise you anyway! Don’t think about it!”
“Then I’ll keep pestering you until you promise!”
