Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad

Chapter 217 It’s not good for a man and a woman to be alone

Thinking of this, Claire breaks away from Leo’s arms and says with an unnatural look, “it’s hot. Don’t hold me any longer.”

Hearing Claire’s words, Leo just smiles, but this time he doesn’t force Claire. He gets up and gets out of bed and goes to the bathroom for a bath.

Claire looks at Leo’s shadow in the sunset and calms down. She grabs the sheet with her hand and lies on the bed for a while before she gets up and dresses.

Claire can not help blushing a little as she watches the clothes strewn from her bedroom to the sofa. At the same time, she makes up her mind that she will not easily fall into Leo’s attack.

Leo takes Claire out to dinner after taking a bath. His attitude is neither too warm nor too cold.

Regardless of their ambiguous relationship, Claire likes this way of getting along. As long as they don’t quarrel every time they meet, how nice it is to get along peacefully.

After dinner, Leo takes Claire back. Leo says he has to do something at night so he leaves her alone in the room. If she’s bored, she can go out but don’t go too far.

Claire is not used to Leo, so she urges him to leave.

Leo leaves for hours. By the time he comes back again, he has drunk a lot. Fortunately, he is still awake.

Claire takes him to the bathroom for a bath, but Leo comes out and says he doesn’t want to leave.

“Hey.” Claire looks at Leo angrily. “President, you have your own room. Why do you sleep in my room? What’s more, I have only one bed in this room. You are not allowed to sleep in my bed!”

Leo wipes his hair with a towel lazily. As soon as Claire finishes, he goes straight to the sofa and sits down. He says lazily, “can I sleep here?”

“Do you have a fever?” Claire stares at Leo incredulously.

Claire is not used to Leo’s gentleness. Although she thinks it’s good for them to get along peacefully, she’s used to Leo’s bullying and unreasonable. She can’t get used to such a gentle Leo at all.

Leo glances at Claire casually and still languidly says, “you know if I have a fever. I’m so tired today. I’ll sleep here.”

“No way!” Claire refuses without thinking.

She decides to keep her distance from Leo.

“You can’t sleep here. A man and a woman share a room. I doubt if I’m safe, so you have to go out!” Claire says firmly.

However, Leo doesn’t care. He lies on his side on the sofa and supports his head with one hand. He looks at Claire languidly and orders, “I order you as your boss that I sleep here tonight!”

“You!” Claire is angry. She points at Leo and says angrily, “I’ve given you the liquidated damages. I’m not your secretary now.”

“Really?” Leo lazily lengthens the ending. He looks at Claire thoughtfully and says, “that money doesn’t seem to belong to you, and I didn’t allow you to take it.”

Leo is outspoken. Claire’s face turns red. She really shouldn’t have accepted Fiona money, but she didn’t do anything wrong at the time.

She wanted to leave there, but Fiona gave her an excuse to leave in time. She took Fiona’s money and quarreled with Leo, so she would not be bullied by Leo again.

After thinking about it, Claire still doesn’t want to compromise in front of Leo. She raises her chin and says with dignity, “it’s my freedom whether I accept or not. Why do I need your permission?”

“It’s not your freedom, of course,” says Leo. “Before you quit, you are still my employee. As long as you don’t quit, I will decide what you should do and what you shouldn’t do every hour, every minute and every second. I don’t allow you to take other people’s money, let alone be bullied by others. And if you really want to quit, you have to pay your own money to quit. Don’t let me look down on you, Claire.”

When Leo finally says her name, he especially accentuates the pronunciation of each word and says it word by word.

Claire knows Leo is trying to stimulate her, but she can’t help protesting loudly, “do you think you’re a bully president? What’s more, the employee handbook doesn’t say that I have to use my own money to quit. You’re talking nonsense! You look down on me? It’s ridiculous.”

“You know I’m the president?” Leo raises his eyebrows and chuckles, “since you know that I am the president of the company, you know that I can change any rule of the company at any time. I can call the company right away to have this added. So you can’t quit. It’s all up to me.”

Leo’s tone reminds Claire of his cruel contempt for her six years ago and warns her never to run away from him. As a result, Claire left him.

After many years, Leo’s habit still hasn’t changed. Claire can’t help laughing. He didn’t expect that she will leave again.

Claire knows it’s no use arguing with Leo. She shrugs and says coldly, “I’ve given you the money anyway. You can’t deny it.” C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“But I didn’t take the money.” When Claire finishes, Leo puts out her last hope.

Claire stares at Leo in shock. She falters, “those checks... Did you leave them in the restaurant?”

“Yes.” Leo nods seriously.

“...”

Claire is completely speechless. Although she is a little distressed by the checks, Claire doesn’t care when she thinks that the money doesn’t belong to her.

He throws away $1.5 million. She doesn’t understand the rich.

Claire doesn’t speak, so Leo thinks she’s compromised. He smiles smugly. “Now can I sleep here? My little secretary?”
